Micah 5

1 Now shalt thou gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they have laid siege against us; they smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.

Chokuru jokedo mau, yaye dala maduongʼ mar jokedo, nikech wasikwa osegonwa agengʼa. Gibiro goyo lemb ruodh jo-Israel gi luth.

2 But thou, Beth-lehem Ephrathah, which art little to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee shall one come forth unto Me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from ancient days.

“To in Bethlehem Efratha, kata obedo ni itin e dier dhout Juda, kuomi ema ngʼat manobedna jatend Israel nowuogie, ngʼat machakruok mare noa chon, kinde machon gi lala.”

3 Therefore will He give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth; then the residue of his brethren shall return with the children of Israel.

Kuom mano Israel ibiro jwangʼ nyaka kinde ma dhako man-gi ich nonywolie nyathi, kendo owetene mamoko nodwogi mi riwre gi jo-Israel.

4 And he shall stand, and shall feed his flock in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God; and they shall abide, for then shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.

Enochungʼ mi okwa rombe gi teko mar Jehova Nyasaye, ka en gi duongʼ mar Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasache. Joge nodag maonge luoro nikech duongʼne nochop e tunge piny,

5 And this shall be peace: when the Assyrian shall come into our land, and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight princes among men.

kendo en owuon ema nobed kwe margi. Ka jo-Asuria omonjo pinywa, kendo ka ginyono kuondewa mochiel motegno, to wabiro yiero jokwath abiriyo mondo oked kodgi; adier jotendwa aboro norad kodgi.

6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the keen-edged sword; and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our border.

Gibiro loyo piny jo-Asuria gi ligangla, piny jo-Nimrod ibiro loyo gi ligangla mowuodhi. Noresgi e lwet jo-Asuria ka nomonj pinywa, kendo ka nochopi e tongʼwa.

7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many peoples, as dew from the LORD, as showers upon the grass, that are not looked for from man, nor awaited at the hands of the sons of men.

Joka Jakobo modongʼ nobed e dier ogendini mangʼeny, mana ka thoo moa kuom Jehova Nyasaye kata ka ngʼidho ma omoko e lum, malal apoya nono ne dhano bende ok nyal rito dhano.

8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep, who, if he go through, treadeth down and teareth in pieces, and there is none to deliver.

Joka Jakobo modongʼ nobed e dier ogendini, ginibed e dier ji mayoreyore, mana ka sibuor e dier le mag bungu, kata ka sibuor matin e dier rombe, makidho kendo nyulo kokadho, maonge ngʼama nyalo resogi.

9 Let Thy hand be lifted up above Thine adversaries, and let all Thine enemies be cut off.

Notingʼ lweti malo kiseloyo wasiki, kendo joma kedo kodi duto notieki.

10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the LORD, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and will destroy thy chariots;

Jehova Nyasaye owacho niya, “E odiechiengno anaketh fareseu kendo nabanj gecheu mag lweny.

11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and will throw down all thy strongholds;

Anaketh mier madongo manie pinyu mochiel motegno kendo anamuk ohingau.

12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thy hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers;

Abiro tieko timbeu mag jwok ma ok unuchak ugo gagi kendo.

13 And I will cut off thy graven images and thy pillars out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thy hands.

Abiro ketho kido mopa mau kod kite mulamo manie dieru. Ok unuchak ukulru piny ne gik ma lwetu oloso.

14 And I will pluck up thy Asherim out of the midst of thee; and I will destroy thine enemies.

Abiro muko sirni mag nyasachu ma Ashera mi agol kuomu kendo abiro ketho miechu madongo chuth.

15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the nations, because they hearkened not.

Anachul kuor gi mirima kod gero kuom ogendini ma osedagi luora.”
