Micah 6
1 Hearken ye nowe what the Lord sayth, Arise thou, and contende before the mountaines, and let the hilles heare thy voyce.
Geenụ ntị nʼihe Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Bilienụ ọtọ, ma kwuonụ nʼihu ugwu niile ụzọ m siri mejọọ unu. Ka ugwu nta niile nụkwa ihe i nwere ikwu.
2 Heare ye, O mountaynes, the Lordes quarel, and ye mightie foundations of the earth: for the Lord hath a quarell against his people, and he will pleade with Israel.
“Ma ugbu a geenụ ntị, unu ugwu niile, geenụ ntị, unu ntọala ebighị ebi niile nke ụwa, nʼihi na Onyenwe anyị nwere ikpe megide ndị nke ya. Ọ bụkwa Izrel ka ọ ga-arụso ụka.
3 O my people, what haue I done vnto thee? or wherin haue I grieued thee? testifie against me.
“Unu bụ ndị m, gịnị ka m mere unu? Gwanụ m ụzọ m si boo unu ibu arọ? Zaanụ m.
4 Surely I brought thee vp out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of seruants, and I haue sent before thee, Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Nʼihi na e si m nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta unu. Agbapụtara m unu site na ịbụ ohu, nye unu Mosis na Erọn na Miriam ka ha nyere unu aka.
5 O my people, remember nowe what Balak King of Moab had deuised, and what Balaam the sonne of Beor answered him, from Shittim vnto Gilgal, that ye may knowe the righteousnes of the Lord.
Ndị m, chetanụ ihe Balak eze Moab zubere na ihe Belam nwa Beoa zara ya. Chetanụ njem unu site nʼobodo Shitim ruo obodo Gilgal, ka unu hụ nzọpụta nke Onyenwe anyị.”
6 Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bowe my selfe before the hie God? Shall I come before him with burnt offrings, and with calues of a yeere olde?
Gịnị ka m ga-eji bịa nʼihu Onyenwe anyị, ịkpọ isiala nʼihu Chineke onye dị oke elu? M ga-eji onyinye aja nsure ọkụ bịa nʼihu ya nke e ji ụmụ ehi gbara otu afọ chụọ?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousand riuers of oyle? shall I giue my first borne for my transgression, euen the fruite of my bodie, for the sinne of my soule?
Ọ ga-atọ Onyenwe anyị ụtọ, bụ ọtụtụ puku ebule, ya na iri puku mmanụ na-asọ dịka iyi? Aga m eji nwa mbụ m chụọ aja njehie m, maọbụ mkpụrụ nke ahụ m chụọ aja maka mmehie nke mkpụrụobi m?
8 He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requireth of thee: surely to doe iustly, and to loue mercie, and to humble thy selfe, to walke with thy God.
Nʼihi na o gosila gị, gị mmadụ, ihe dị mma. Gịnịkwa bụ ihe ahụ Onyenwe anyị na-achọ nʼaka gị, Ọ bụ na ọ bụghị ikpe ziri ezi, na ịhụ ime ebere nʼanya, na iji obi dị umeala soro Chineke gị na-eje ije?
9 The Lordes voyce cryeth vnto the citie, and the man of wisedome shall see thy name: Heare the rodde, and who hath appoynted it.
Gee ntị! Olu Onyenwe anyị na-ada na-akpọku ndị obodo ahụ, nʼezie, ịtụ egwu gị bụ inwe amamihe. “Nụrụnụ olu mkpanaka na Onye hiwere ya.
10 Are yet the treasures of wickednes in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure, that is abominable?
Ọ ga-abụ na m ga-echezọ akụ ị kpara nʼụzọ na-ezighị ezi, gị ụlọ ajọ omume, ya na ihe ọtụtụ nke na-erughị eru unu ji ere ahịa, bụ nke abụrụ ọnụ?
11 Shall I iustifie the wicked balances, and the bag of deceitfull weightes?
M ga-asị onye na-eji ihe ọtụtụ aghụghọ azụ ahịa, na onye bu akpa nke ihe ọtụtụ aghụghọ dị iche iche juru nʼime ya na aka ya dị ọcha?
12 For the rich men thereof are full of crueltie, and the inhabitants thereof haue spoken lyes, and their tongue is deceitfull in their mouth.
Ndị ọgaranya unu bụ ndị na-eme ihe ike, ndị mmadụ nọ nʼime gị na-agha ụgha, ire ha na-ekwu naanị okwu aghụghọ.
13 Therefore also will I make thee sicke in smiting thee, and in making thee desolate, because of thy sinnes.
Nʼihi ya, ebidola m ịla unu nʼiyi, na ime ka unu bụrụ ndị e bibiri nʼihi mmehie unu
14 Thou shalt eate and not be satisfied, and thy casting downe shall be in the mids of thee, and thou shalt take holde, but shalt not deliuer: and that which thou deliuerest, will I giue vp to the sworde.
Unu ga-eri nri ma afọ agaghị eju unu; afọ agaghị ejukwa unu eju. Unu ga-ewezuga ihe, ma unu agaghị echekwa ha, nʼihi na ihe ọbụla unu nwere ike chekwaa, ka m ga-ewere nyefee nʼaka mma agha.
15 Thou shalt sowe, but not reape: thou shalt treade the oliues, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oyle, and make sweete wine, but shalt not drinke wine.
Unu ga-akụ mkpụrụ, ma unu agaghị ewe ihe ubi, unu ga-azọchapụta mmanụ oliv, ma unu agaghị ete ya nʼahụ unu; unu ga-azọchapụtakwa mmanya site na mkpụrụ vaịnị, ma unu agaghị aṅụ mmanya ya.
16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the maner of the house of Ahab, and ye walke in their counsels, that I should make thee waste, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall beare the reproche of my people.
Unu edebela ụkpụrụ niile bụ nke Omri, na omenaala niile nke ụlọ Ehab, unu gbasokwara ndụmọdụ ha niile. Nʼihi ya, aga m enyefe unu nʼaka mbibi mee ka ndị gị ghọọkwa ihe ọchị, unu ga-aghọkwara mba niile ihe nkọcha.”
