Micah 5
1 Now shalt thou be laid waste, O daughter of the robber: they have laid siege against us, with a rod shall they strike the cheek of the judge of Israel.
Ugbu a doo ndị agha gị nʼusoro, gị obodo nke usuu ndị agha, nʼihi na e jirila mgbidi gbaa gị gburugburu ibuso gị agha. Ha ga-eji mkpara tie onyendu Izrel na nti.
2 AND THOU, BETHLEHEM Ephrata, art a little one among the thousands of Juda: out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be the ruler in Israel: and his going forth is from the beginning, from the days of eternity.
“Ma gị onwe gị, Betlehem Efrata, ọ bụ ezie na ị bụ obodo dị nta nʼetiti ndị ikwu Juda niile, ma onye ahụ ga-achị Izrel ga-esi na gị pụta, bụ onye ahụ mmalite ya sitere na mgbe ochie, sitekwa na mgbe ebighị ebi gara aga.”
3 Therefore will he give them up even till the time wherein she that travaileth shall bring forth: and the remnant of his brethren shall be converted to the children of Israel.
Ya mere, a ga-arara ha nye tutu ruo mgbe onye ahụ ime na-eme mụpụtara nwa ya. Mgbe ahụ, ụmụnna ya niile ahụ fọdụrụ ga-alọghachikwuru ndị Izrel.
4 And he shall stand, and feed in the strength of the Lord, in the height of the name of the Lord his God: and they shall be converted, for now shall he be magnified even to the ends of the earth.
Ọ ga-eguzo zụọ igwe ewu na atụrụ ya, site nʼike nke Onyenwe anyị, na site nʼịdị ukwuu nke aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya. Ndị ya ga-anọkwa na-enweghị nsogbu, nʼihi na ịdị ukwuu ya ga-eru na nsọtụ niile nke ụwa.
5 And this man shall be our peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall set his foot in our houses: and we shall raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.
Ọ ga-abụkwa udo anyị. Mgbe ndị Asịrịa ga-abata nʼala anyị nʼike, sikwa nʼebe niile e wusiri ike nke anyị na-agafe, anyị ga-ahọpụta ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ asaa, ọ bụladị ndịisi asatọ.
6 And they shall feed the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nemrod with the spears thereof: and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian, when he shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our borders.
Onye ga-eji mma agha chịa ala Asịrịa, jirikwa mma agha a mịpụtara amịpụta chịa ala Nimrọd. Ọ ga-anapụta anyị site nʼaka ndị Asịrịa ahụ, mgbe ha ga-eji ike bata nʼala anyị, ma zọrọkwa ije gafee oke ala anyị.
7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples as a dew from the Lord, and as drops upon the grass, which waiteth not for man, nor tarrieth for the children of men.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị fọdụrụ afọdụ nke Jekọb ga-adị nʼetiti ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ, dịka igirigi si nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ abịa, maọbụ dịka mmiri ozuzo ntakịrị na-ezokwasị ahịhịa, nke na-adịghị ele anya mmadụ maọbụ chere ụmụ mmadụ.
8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many peoples as a lion among the beasts of the forests, and as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who when he shall go through and tread down, and take, there is none to deliver.
Ndị fọdụrụ afọdụ nke Jekọb ga-adịkwa nʼetiti ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ dị ka ọdụm nʼetiti anụ ọhịa niile dị iche iche, e, dịka nwa ọdụm nʼetiti igwe atụrụ, nke na-azọda na-adọkasị mgbe ọ na-agabiga, ma o nweghị onye ga-anapụta ya.
9 Thy hand shall be lifted up over thy enemies, and all thy enemies shall be cut off.
Aka gị ga-adị elu na mmeri nke ndị iro ya, a ghakwaghị ịla ndị iro gị niile nʼiyi.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, that I will take away thy horses out of the midst of thee, and will destroy thy chariots.
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ kwa,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, “Aga m ala ịnyịnya unu nʼiyi site nʼetiti unu, kụjisiekwa ụgbọala unu niile.
11 And I will destroy the cities of thy land, and will throw down all thy strong holds,
Aga m ala obodo niile dị nʼala unu nʼiyi, dọdasịakwa ebe unu niile e wusiri ike.
12 and I will take away sorceries out of thy hand, and there shall be no divinations in thee.
Aga m ala mgbaasị unu nʼiyi, unu agaghị enwekwa ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase.
13 And I will destroy thy graven things, and thy statues out of the midst of thee: and thou shalt no more adore the works of thy hands.
Aga m ala arụsị a pịrị apị unu niile nʼiyi, ya na nkume nsọ ahụ niile dị nʼetiti unu. Unu agakwaghị akpọ isiala nye ihe unu ji aka unu kpụọ.
14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: and will crush thy cities.
Aga m ehopu ogidi arụsị niile nke dị nʼetiti unu, mgbe m ga-akụdasị obodo unu niile
15 And I will execute vengeance in wrath and in indignation among all the nations that have not given ear.
Aga m esite nʼoke iwe m na ọnụma m bọọrọ onwe m ọbọ nʼahụ mba niile ndị ahụ jụrụ irubere m isi.”
