< Micah 2 >

1 Woe to you that devise that which is unprofitable, and work evil in your beds: in the morning light they execute it, because their hand is against God.
Ak vai, tiem, kas domā netaisnību un sataisa ļaunumu uz savām cisām; rīta gaismā tie to izdara, jo viņu roka to iespēj.
2 And they have coveted fields, and taken them by violence, and houses they have forcibly taken away: and oppressed a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.
Un tie iekāro tīrumus un tos laupa, un namus, un tos paņem; tā tie dara varas darbu pie vīra un viņa nama, pie cilvēka un viņa mantas.
3 Therefore thus saith the Lord: Behold, I devise an evil against this family: from which you shall not withdraw your necks, and you shall not walk haughtily, for this is a very evil time.
Tādēļ Tas Kungs tā saka: redzi, Es domāju ļaunumu pret šo cilti, no tā jūs savus kaklus neizvilksiet un nestaigāsiet tik grezni; jo laiks ir ļauns.
4 In that day a parable shall be taken up upon you, and a song shall be sung with melody by them that say: We are laid waste and spoiled: the portion of my people is changed: how shall he depart from me, whereas he is returning that will divide our land?
Tai dienā cels sakāmu vārdu par jums un gauži žēlosies: „tas noticis“, sacīs: „mēs pavisam postīti! Manu ļaužu tiesa top izmīta; kā Viņš man to atrauj! Atkāpējiem Viņš izdala mūsu tīrumus.“
5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast the cord of a lot in the assembly of the Lord.
Tāpēc tev nebūs neviena, kas tev zemi mēros un dalīs Tā Kunga draudzē.
6 Speak ye not, saying: It shall not drop upon these, confusion shall not take them.
„Nesludinājiet!” Tā tie sludina. Ja tiem nesludinās, tad negods nezudīs.
7 The house of Jacob saith: Is the spirit of the Lord straitened, or are these his thoughts? Are not my words good to him that walketh uprightly?
Tu, ko sauc par Jēkaba namu, vai tad Tas Kungs nepacietīgs? Vai tādi ir viņa darbi? Vai Mani vārdi nav laipnīgi tam, kas staigā, kā piederās?
8 But my people, on the contrary, are risen up as an enemy: you have taken away the cloak off from the coat: and them that passed harmless you have turned to war.
Bet nesen Mani ļaudis cēlās kā ienaidnieki; jūs laupāt no apģērba mēteli tiem, kas mierīgi iet garām un nemeklē kara.
9 You have cast out the women of my people from their houses, in which they took delight: you have taken my praise for ever from their children.
Jūs izdzenāt Manu ļaužu sievas no viņu skaistiem namiem, jūs atņemat viņu bērniņiem Manu glītumu mūžam.
10 Arise ye, and depart, for there is no rest here for you. For that uncleanness of the land, it shall be corrupted with a grievous corruption.
Ceļaties un ejat projām, jo šī zeme jums nebūs par dusu tās nešķīstības dēļ, kas pavisam maitāt samaitā.
11 Would God I were not a man that hath the spirit, and that I rather spoke a lie: I will let drop to thee of wine, and of drunkenness: and it shall be this people upon whom it shall drop.
Ja es būtu tāds vīrs, kas pēc vēja un viltības grābstās un melotu, ja es tev sludinātu par vīnu un dzērienu, tad es būtu pravietis priekš šiem ļaudīm.
12 I will assemble and gather together all of thee, O Jacob: I will bring together the remnant of Israel, I will put them together as a flock in the fold, as the sheep in the midst of the sheepcotes, they shall make a tumult by reason of the multitude of men.
Pulcināt Es tevi sapulcināšu, Jēkab, lasīt Es salasīšu kopā Israēla atlikušos, Es tos kā avis likšu stiprā kūtī, kā ganāmu pulku viņu laidaros, - tur no cilvēkiem rībēs.
13 For he shall go up that shall open the way before them: they shall divide, and pass through the gate, and shall come in by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the Lord at the head of them.
Lauzējs staigās viņu priekšā, tie lauzīsies iekšā un ieies pa vārtiem un atkal izies tur ārā, un viņu ķēniņš tiem ies priekšā, un Tas Kungs būs viņu vadonis.
