Micah 4
1 In the last days, the mountain where the Lord's Temple stands will be recognized as the highest of all mountains, rising above other hills. Crowds of people from many places will travel to it.
Nna a edi akyi no mu no, Awurade asɔredan bepɔw no betim sɛ mmepɔw no nyinaa ti; ebegye din aboro nkoko nyinaa, na nnipa ahorow bɛbɔ yuu akɔ hɔ.
2 Many nations will come and say, “Let's go up to the mountain of the Lord, to the Temple of the God of Jacob. There God will teach us his ways and we will follow his directions.” God's teachings will spread out from Zion, his word from Jerusalem.
Aman bebree bɛba abɛka se, “Mommra mma yɛnkɔ Awurade bepɔw no so, nkɔ Yakob Nyankopɔn fi. Ɔbɛkyerɛkyerɛ yɛn nʼakwan sɛnea ɛbɛyɛ a yɛbɛnantew nʼatempɔn so.” Mmara no befi Sion aba, na Awurade asɛm afi Yerusalem.
3 The Lord will decide the cases of the nations, he will settle arguments between distant powerful nations. They will hammer their swords and turn them into plough blades, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nations will not fight against each other anymore; they will no longer learn methods of warfare.
Obebu amanaman ntam atɛn na obesiesie nnipa bebree ntam asɛm. Wɔde wɔn afoa bɛbobɔ nsɔw na wɔde wɔn mpeaw ayɛ asosɔw. Ɔman bi rentwe ɔman foforo so afoa, na wɔrenyɛ ahoboa biara mma ɔko bio.
4 Everyone will be able to sit under their own vine and their own fig tree, for there will be no one to make them afraid. I the Lord Almighty has spoken!
Obiara bɛtena ne bobe anaa ne borɔdɔma nnua ase, na obiara remmehunahuna wɔn, efisɛ, Asafo Awurade akasa.
5 Even though all the other nations follow their gods, we will follow the Lord our God forever and ever.
Amanaman no nyinaa betumi anantew wɔn anyame din mu, na yɛn de, yɛbɛnantew Awurade, yɛn Nyankopɔn Din mu daa daa.
6 On that day, declares the Lord, I will gather those who are lame, I will bring together those who have been scattered in exile, those whom I punished.
“Saa da no,” sɛnea Awurade se ni, “Mɛboaboa mmubuafo, atukɔfo ɛne wɔn a mede awerɛhow aba wɔn so ano.
7 I will make those who remain, crippled and driven far away, into a strong nation, and the Lord will rule them from Mount Zion forever and ever.
Mɛma mmubuafo ayɛ me nkurɔfo wɔ asase no so, atukɔfo no bɛyɛ ɔman kɛse. Awurade bedi wɔn so hene wɔ Sion bepɔw so afi da no akosi daa.
8 And as for you, Jerusalem, watchtower of the flock, your former royal rule and power will be returned to you: the kingdom will be given back to Jerusalem.
Na wo, nguankuw no abantenten, Ɔbabea Sion, abandennen, wɔde wo tete tumidi no bɛsan abrɛ wo; Ɔbabea Yerusalem nsa bɛsan aka nʼahenni.”
9 So why are you screaming aloud? Don't you have a king? Has the king who advises you died so that pain has gripped you like a woman in childbirth?
Adɛn nti na afei woresu dennen, wunni ɔhene ana? Wo futufo ayera, na enti ɔyaw aka wo sɛ ɔbea a ɔwɔ awoko mu?
10 Thrash around in agony like a woman giving birth, people of Zion—for you will be expelled from the city, forced to camp out in the open, and exiled to Babylon. But the Lord will bring you back, and rescue you from the power of your enemies.
Bukabukaw wo mu wɔ yawdi mu, Ɔbabea Sion, te sɛ ɔbea a awo aka no, mprempren ɛsɛ sɛ wufi kuropɔn no mu kɔtena sare so. Wobɛkɔ Babilonia; na hɔ na wobegye wo. Ɛhɔ na Awurade begye wo afi wʼatamfo nsam.
11 Right now many enemies are gathered against you, saying, “Let us attack and violate her, so we can look with gloating over Zion!”
Mprempren de, aman bebree aka abɔ mu atia wo. Wɔka se, “Wongu Sion ho fi, na yɛmfa yɛn ani nhwɛ no!”
12 But they don't know what the Lord is thinking, and don't understand what he is planning. He has brought them together like bundles of grain to the threshing floor.
Nanso wonnim Awurade adwene. Wɔnte nʼagyinatu ase. Wonnim sɛ ɔno na ɔboaboa wɔn ano te sɛ afiafi de kɔ awiporowbea.
13 People of Zion, get up and start threshing, for I will make for you iron horns and bronze hooves so you can break many nations into pieces. You will present their stolen plunder to the Lord, their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
“Sɔre, na porow, Ɔbabea Sion, mɛma wo dade mmɛn; mɛma wo kɔbere tɔte na wubebubu aman bebree mu nketenkete.” Wode wɔn mfaso a wɔampɛ no ɔkwan pa so bɛbrɛ Awurade, wode wɔn ahonyade bɛbrɛ asase nyinaa so wura.
