Micah 1
1 The word of the Lord, that came vnto Micah the Morashite in the dayes of Iotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah Kings of Iudah, which he sawe concerning Samaria, and Ierusalem.
Men mesaj Seyè a te bay Miche, moun lavil Morechèt, sou rèy Jotam, Akaz ak Ezekyas ki te wa nan peyi jida. Men vizyon ki gen rapò ak Samari ak Jerizalèm Seyè a te fè Miche wè.
2 Heare, al ye people: hearke thou, O earth, and all that therein is, and let the Lord God be witnes against you, euen ye Lord from his holy Teple.
Koute byen, nou menm tout nasyon yo. Pare zòrèy nou, nou tout k'ap viv sou latè. Seyè a, Bondye a, pral akize nou. Tande! Li rete nan tanp ki apa pou li a, l'ap pale.
3 For beholde, the Lord commeth out of his place, and will come downe, and tread vpon the hie places of the earth.
Seyè a ap soti kote li rete a, l'ap desann, l'ap mache sou tèt mòn yo.
4 And the mountaines shall melt vnder him (so shall the valleys cleaue) as waxe before the fire, and as the waters that are powred downewarde.
Mòn yo ap fonn anba pye l' tankou lasi nan dife. Y'ap koule desann nan fon yo tankou lavalas k'ap desann mòn.
5 For the wickednes of Iaakob is all this, and for the sinnes of the house of Israel: what is the wickednes of Iaakob? Is not Samaria? and which are the hie places of Iudah? Is not Ierusalem?
Tou sa ap rive paske pèp Izrayèl la fè bagay ki mal, paske pitit Jakòb yo fè sa yo pa t' dwe fè. Ki moun ki reskonsab sa pèp Izrayèl la fè a? Se pa moun Samari, kapital peyi a? Ki moun k'ap fè idolatri nan peyi Jida a? Se pa moun lavil Jerizalèm?
6 Therefore I wil make Samaria as an heape of the fielde, and for the planting of a vineyard, and I will cause the stones thereof to tumble downe into the valley, and I will discouer the foundations thereof.
Se konsa Seyè a di: M'ap fè lavil Samari tounen yon bann mazi nan plenn lan, yon jaden pou plante rezen. M'ap voye tout miray li yo jete nan fon. Se fondasyon kay yo ase k'ap rete pou moun wè.
7 And all the grauen images thereof shalbe broken, and all the giftes thereof shalbe burnt with the fire, and all the idoles thereof will I destroy: for she gathered it of the hire of an harlot, and they shall returne to the wages of an harlot.
Y'ap kraze tout zidòl yo an miyèt moso. Y'ap boule tou sa yo te ofri bay zidòl yo nan dife. M'ap fè kay zidòl yo tounen pil wòch. Pèp la te vire do bay Bondye lè yo t'ap fè zidòl sa yo, ou ta di madan marye k'ap fè jennès. Koulye a, y'ap peye pou vire yo te vire do bay Bondye a.
8 Therefore I will mourne and howle: I wil goe without clothes, and naked: I will make lamentation like the dragons, and mourning as the ostriches.
Lèfini, Miche di: Se poutèt sa m'ap plenn, m'ap kriye. M'ap pwonmennen mache pye atè, toutouni, pou m' fè wè lapenn mwen. M'ap rele tankou frize, m'ap wouke tankou chen.
9 For her plagues are grieuous: for it is come into Iudah: the enemie is come vnto the gate of my people, vnto Ierusalem.
Pa gen renmèd pou maladi moun lavil Samari yo. Li kontaminen peyi Jida a. Li gen tan rive jouk nan pòtay kapital peyi pèp mwen an. Li gen tan rive lavil Jerizalèm.
10 Declare ye it not at Gath, neither weepe ye: for the house of Aphrah roule thy selfe in the dust.
Pa kite moun lavil Gat yo konnen sa ki rive nou! Pa kite moun Akò yo wè nou ap kriye! Woule kò nou atè nan pousyè, nou menm moun Betleafra.
11 Thou that dwellest at Shaphir, go together naked with shame: she that dwelleth at Zaanan, shall not come forth in ye mourning of Beth-ezel: the enemie shall receiue of you for his standing.
Pase pase nou, toutouni, tèt bese, nou menm moun lavil Safi. Moun ki rete nan ti bouk Zaanan an pa ka mete tèt yo deyò. Lè w'a tande jan moun Betaezèl yo ap plenn, w'a konnen ou p'ap jwenn pwoteksyon bò la ankò.
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth wayted for good, but euill came from the Lord vnto the gate of Ierusalem.
Moun Mawòt yo nan lapenn. Pa gen sekou pou yo ankò, paske Seyè a fè malè a rive nan papòt lavil Jerizalèm.
13 O thou inhabitant of Lachish, binde the charet to the beastes of price: she is the beginning of the sinne to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
Nou menm, moun lavil Lakis, nou mèt pare bon chwal pou cha nou yo. Se nou menm an premye nan peyi Izrayèl ki te konmanse ap fè sa ki mal. Se nou menm ki lakòz moun lavil Jerizalèm yo ap fè peche konsa.
14 Therefore shalt thou giue presents to Moresheth Gath: the houses of Achzib shalbe as a lye to the Kings of Israel.
Koulye a, nou menm moun peyi Jida, nou mèt di moun lavil Morechèt Gat yo orevwa, paske moun lavil Akzib yo bay manti, yo p'ap pote ankenn sekou bay wa Izrayèl yo.
15 Yet will I bring an heire vnto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah, he shall come vnto Adullam, the glorie of Israel.
Kanta pou nou menm, moun lavil Marecha, mwen menm Seyè a, m'ap fè lènmi pran lavil la nan men nou. Grannèg nan peyi Izrayèl yo pral kache nan twou wòch Adoulam lan.
16 Make thee balde: and shaue thee for thy delicate children: enlarge thy baldenesse as the eagle, for they are gone into captiuity from thee.
Nou menm moun Jida, reziyen nou, paske sa fè kè nou fè nou mal pou nou wè sa timoun nou renmen anpil yo ap fè. Mare ren nou tankou moun ki nan lapenn, paske y'ap depòte timoun nou yo ale byen lwen nou.
