< Micah 4 >
1 But in the end of days it shall come to pass, that the mountain of the LORD'S house shall be established as the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and peoples shall flow unto it.
Le ŋkeke mamlɛawo me la, woaɖo to si dzi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ le la te abe to si ƒo towo katã ta la ene. Woakɔe wòagbɔ togbɛwo katã ta eye amewo aƒo zi ɖe eŋu.
2 And many nations shall go and say: 'Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and He will teach us of His ways, and we will walk in His paths'; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Dukɔ geɖewo ava agblɔ be, “Miva. Mina míayi Yehowa ƒe to la dzi le Yakob ƒe Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Afia eƒe mɔwo mí ale be míazɔ le eƒe mɔwo dzi.” Nufiame atso Zion ava eye Yehowa ƒe nya atso Yerusalem ava.
3 And He shall judge between many peoples, and shall decide concerning mighty nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks; nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu le amewo dome, eye wòadzra dukɔ sesẽ siwo le kpuiƒe kple didiƒe siaa la dome ɖo. Woatsɔ woƒe aʋawɔyiwo atu kodzoewoe, eye woatsɔ woƒe akplɔwo atu hɛ gobɛwoe. Dukɔ matsɔ yi ɖe dukɔ ŋu alo axɔ hehe na aʋawɔwɔ o.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree; and none shall make them afraid; for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken.
Ame sia ame anɔ anyi bɔkɔɔ ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe wainka kple gboti te; eye ame aɖeke magado ŋɔdzi na wo azɔ o elabena Yehowa, dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
5 For let all the peoples walk each one in the name of its god, but we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.
Dukɔwo katã ate ŋu azɔ le woƒe mawuwo ƒe ŋkɔ me gake míawo ya míazɔ le Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ me tegbetegbe.
6 In that day, saith the LORD, will I assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven away, and her that I have afflicted;
Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, maƒo tekunɔwo, aboyomewo kple ame siwo ƒe dzi megbã la nu ƒu.
7 And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a mighty nation; and the LORD shall reign over them in mount Zion from thenceforth even for ever.
Mawɔ tekunɔwo woazu ame mamlɛawo, eye ame siwo wonya la nazu dukɔ sẽŋu aɖe. Yehowa aɖu fia ɖe wo dzi le Zion to dzi tso gbe ma gbe heyi tegbee.
8 And thou, Migdal-eder, the hill of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall it come; yea, the former dominion shall come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
Ke wò la, O nye alẽha ƒe gbetakpɔla, O Zion nyɔnuvi ƒe togbɛ, dziɖuɖu agava na wò abe tsã ene. Dziɖuɖu ƒe ŋusẽ agava na wò abe tsã ene eye fiaɖuɖu agava na Yerusalem vinyɔnu.”
9 Now why dost thou cry out aloud? Is there no King in thee, is thy Counsellor perished, that pangs have taken hold of thee as of a woman in travail?
Azɔ nu ka ta nèle avi fam eye ɖe fia aɖeke mele asiwò oa? Afi ka wò fia si wòle be wòakplɔ wò la to? Ɖe wò aɖaŋuɖolawo ku hafi nèle ŋeŋem abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la enea?
10 Be in pain, and labour to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now shalt thou go forth out of the city, and shalt dwell in the field, and shalt come even unto Babylon; there shalt thou be rescued; there shall the LORD redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
O Zion nyɔnuvi, ƒo dablibɛ, nàlé ku abe nyɔnu si le vi dzim la ene, elabena tso azɔ dzi yina la, àdzo le du sia me aɖanɔ gbegbe, woakplɔ wò ayi ɖe aboyo me le Babilonianyigba dzi, gake le afi sia la, maɖe wò. Le afi ma la, Yehowa aɖe wò tso futɔwo ƒe asi me.
11 And now many nations are assembled against thee, that say: 'Let her be defiled, and let our eye gaze upon Zion.'
Ke azɔ la, dukɔ geɖewo wɔ ɖeka wɔ babla ɖe mia ŋuti; Wogblɔ be: “Mina míado gui eye míaƒe ŋkuwo natsa le Zion.”
12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they His counsel; for He hath gathered them as the sheaves to the threshing-floor.
Ke womenya Yehowa ƒe susuwo o, eye womese eƒe ɖoɖowo gɔme o. Eya ame si ƒo wo nu ƒu abe ale si woƒoa lu bablawo nu ƒu ɖe lugbɔƒee ene.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass; and thou shalt beat in pieces many peoples; and thou shalt devote their gain unto the LORD, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
“Tsi tsitre, O Zion nyɔnuvi, eye nàtugu lu elabena mana wò dzo nanye gayibɔ, wò afɔkli nanye akɔbli eye nàgbã dukɔwo gudugudu.” Kɔ woƒe afunyinu ŋu na Yehowa kple woƒe kesinɔnuwo ŋu na anyigba katã ƒe Aƒetɔ la.
