Micah 2
1 Woe vnto them, that imagine iniquitie, and worke wickednesse vpon their beddes: when the morning is light they practise it because their hande hath power.
Baba na mi ame siwo ɖoa nu vɔ̃ɖi be yewoawɔ kple ame siwo ɖoa nu vɔ̃ɖi le woƒe abawo dzi. Ŋdi kanya la, wowɔa nu siwo woɖo elabena ŋusẽ le wo si be woawɔe.
2 And they couet fields, and take them by violence, and houses, and take them away: so they oppresse a man and his house, euen man and his heritage.
Ne agble dim wole la, woxɔnɛ sesẽtɔe; ne xɔ dim wole la, woxɔa eya hã kple akpasesẽ. Nenye be anyigba ɖeka alo xɔ ɖeka ma koe le amea si hã la, woxɔnɛ le esi. Ale mietea ŋu xɔa amea kple eƒe domenyinuwo siaa sesẽtɔe.
3 Therefore thus saieth the Lord, Beholde, against this familie haue I deuised a plague, whereout yee shall not plucke your neckes, and ye shall not go so proudly, for this time is euill.
Eya ta ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi, “Meɖo gbegblẽ ɖe ame siawo ŋuti eye miate ŋu aɖe mia ɖokuiwo ɖa le gbegblẽ sia me o. Miate ŋu agazɔ dadatɔe o elabena anye ɣeyiɣi vɔ̃.
4 In that daye shall they take vp a parable against you, and lament with a dolefull lamentation, and say, We be vtterly wasted: hee hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he taken it away to restore it vnto mee? he hath deuided our fieldes.
Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, amewo aɖu fewu le mia ŋu, eye woadzi konyifaha sia na mi amenuɖiatɔe be: ‘Wotsrɔ̃ mi keŋkeŋ; hema nye dukɔ ƒe nunɔamesiwo. Yehowa xɔe le asinye. Ema míaƒe anyigbawo na ame siwo ɖe aboyo mí.’”
5 Therefore thou shalt haue none that shall cast a corde by lot in the Congregation of the Lord.
Eya ta ne ɣeyiɣi de be woadzidze nu ama anyigba la, ame aɖeke manɔ mía si le Yehowa ƒe asaɖa me amae na mí o.
6 They that prophecied, Prophecie ye not. They shall not prophecie to them, neither shall they take shame.
Woƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo gblɔ nam be: “Mègagblɔ nya ɖi tso nu siawo ŋuti o elabena ŋukpe mava mía dzi o.”
7 O thou that art named of the house of Iaakob, is the Spirite of the Lord shortened? are these his workes? are not my wordes good vnto him that walketh vprightly?
O Yakob ƒe aƒe, aleke woagblɔ nya siae? “Ɖe Yehowa ƒe gbɔgbɔ ado dɔmedzoea? Ɖe esiawo tso egbɔa? “Ɖe nye nyawo mewɔa nyui na ame siwo lé mɔ dzɔdzɔe tsɔ oa?
8 But hee that was yesterday my people, is risen vp on the other side, as against an enemie: they spoyle the beautifull garment from them that passe by peaceably, as though they returned from the warre.
Ke nye dukɔ tso ɖe ŋunye abe woƒe futɔ ene. Mieɖe awu xɔasiwo le ame siwo va le eme tsom le ŋutifafa me la ŋuti abe asrafo siwo tso aʋa gbɔ la ene.
9 The women of my people haue ye cast out from their pleasant houses, and from their childre haue ye taken away my glorie continually.
Mienya nyɔnu siwo le nye dukɔ me la le woƒe aƒe nyuiwo me. Miexɔ nye yayra le wo viwo si tegbee.
10 Arise and depart, for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, euen with a sore destruction.
Mitso ne miadzo le afi sia, elabena esia menye dzudzɔƒe wònye na mi o; elabena wodo gu teƒe la, eye wogbãe, ale be womagate ŋu aɖɔe ɖo o.
11 If a man walke in the Spirit, and would lie falsely, saying, I wil prophecie vnto thee of wine, and of strong drinke, he shall euen be the prophet of this people.
Ne alakpatɔ kple ameblela aɖe va gblɔ be magblɔ nya ɖi be, ‘Wain kple aha nabɔ na mi fũu’ la, eyae nye nyagblɔɖila si tɔgbi ame siawo lɔ̃na.”
12 I will surely gather thee wholy, O Iaakob: I will surely gather the remnant of Israel: I will put them together as the sheepe of Bozrah, euen as the flocke in the mids of their folde: the cities shall be full of brute of the men.
“O Yakob, magaƒo mia nu ƒu. Maƒo Israel ƒe ame mamlɛawo nu ƒu godoo. Maƒo wo nu ƒu abe alẽwo ene ɖe lãkpɔ me eye woanɔ abe alẽha le gbeɖuƒe ene.
13 The breaker vp shall come vp before them: they shall breake out, and passe by the gate, and goe out by it, and their King shall goe before them, and the Lord shalbe vpon their heades.
Ame si gbãa agbowo la adze ŋgɔ na wo eye woato agboawo me ado go. Woƒe fia adze ŋgɔ na wo eye Yehowa anye woƒe kplɔla.”
