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.
Et erit: In novissimo dierum erit mons domus Domini præparatus in vertice montium, et sublimis super colles: et fluent ad eum populi.
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.
Et properabunt gentes multæ, et dicent: Venite, ascendamus ad montem Domini, et ad domum Dei Iacob: et docebit nos de viis suis, et ibimus in semitis eius: quia de Sion egredietur lex, et verbum Domini de Ierusalem.
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.
Et iudicabit inter populos multos, et corripiet gentes fortes usque in longinquum: et concident gladios suos in vomeres, et hastas suas in ligones: non sumet gens adversus gentem gladium: et non discent ultra belligerare.
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.
Et sedebit vir subtus vitem suam, et subtus ficum suam, et non erit qui deterreat: quia os Domini exercituum locutum est.
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.
Quia omnes populi ambulabunt unusquisque in nomine Dei sui: nos autem ambulabimus in nomine Domini Dei nostri in æternum et ultra.
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;
In die illa, dicit Dominus, congregabo claudicantem: et eam, quam eieceram, colligam: et quam afflixeram:
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.
Et ponam claudicantem in reliquias: et eam, quæ laboraverat, in gentem robustam: et regnabit Dominus super eos in monte Sion, ex hoc nunc et usque in æternum.
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.
Et tu turris gregis nebulosa filiæ Sion usque ad te veniet: et veniet potestas prima, regnum filiæ Ierusalem.
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?
Nunc quare mœrore contraheris? numquid rex non est tibi, aut consiliarius tuus periit, quia comprehendit te dolor sicut parturientem?
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.
Dole, et satage filia Sion quasi parturiens: quia nunc egredieris de civitate, et habitabis in regione, et venies usque ad Babylonem, ibi liberaberis: ibi redimet te Dominus de manu inimicorum tuorum.
11 And now many nations are assembled against thee, that say: 'Let her be defiled, and let our eye gaze upon Zion.'
Et nunc congregatæ sunt super te gentes multæ, quæ dicunt: Lapidetur: et aspiciat in Sion oculus noster.
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.
Ipsi autem non cognoverunt cogitationes Domini, et non intellexerunt consilium eius: quia congregavit eos quasi fœnum areæ.
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.
Surge, et tritura filia Sion: quia cornu tuum ponam ferreum, et ungulas tuas ponam æreas: et comminues populos multos, et interficies Domino rapinas eorum, et fortitudinem eorum Domino universæ terræ.
