Micah 6
1 Hear ye now what the LORD saith: Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
Poslušajte sedaj, kar govori Gospod: »Vstani, poteguj se pred gorami in naj hribi slišijo tvoj glas.
2 Hear, O ye mountains, the LORD'S controversy, and ye enduring rocks, the foundations of the earth; for the LORD hath a controversy with His people, and He will plead with Israel.
Prisluhnite, oh gore, Gospodovo polemiko in vi močni temelji zemlje, kajti Gospod ima polemiko s svojim ljudstvom in pravdal se bo z Izraelom.
3 O My people, what have I done unto thee? And wherein have I wearied thee? Testify against Me.
Oh moje ljudstvo, kaj sem ti storil? In v čem sem te izmučil? Pričaj zoper mene.
4 For I brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bondage, and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Kajti privedel sem te gor iz egiptovske dežele in te odkupil iz hiše služabnikov in pred teboj sem poslal Mojzesa, Arona in Mirjam.
5 O My people, remember now what Balak king of Moab devised, and what Balaam the son of Beor answered him; from Shittim unto Gilgal, that ye may know the righteous acts of the LORD.
Oh moje ljudstvo, spomnite se sedaj kaj je svetoval moábski kralj Balák, in kaj mu je Beórjev sin Bileám odgovoril iz Šitíma do Gilgála, da boste lahko spoznali Gospodovo pravičnost.
6 'Wherewith shall I come before the LORD, and bow myself before God on high? Shall I come before Him with burnt-offerings, with calves of a year old?
S čim bom prišel pred Gospoda in se priklonil pred vzvišenim Bogom? Naj pridem predenj z žgalnimi daritvami, z enoletnimi teleti?
7 Will the LORD be pleased with thousands of rams, with ten thousands of rivers of oil? Shall I give my first-born for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?'
Mar bo Gospod zadovoljen s tisoči ovnov ali z deset tisočimi rekami olja? Naj dam svojega prvorojenca za svoj prestopek, sad mojega telesa za greh moje duše?
8 It hath been told thee, O man, what is good, and what the LORD doth require of thee: only to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God.
Pokazal ti je, oh človek, kaj je dobro. Kaj zahteva Gospod od tebe, razen da ravnaš pravično, da ljubiš usmiljenje in da ponižno hodiš s svojim Bogom?
9 Hark! the LORD crieth unto the city — and it is wisdom to have regard for Thy name — hear ye the rod, and who hath appointed it.
Gospodov glas kliče v mesto in človek modrosti bo videl tvoje ime. Poslušaj palico in tistega, ki jo je določil.
10 Are there yet the treasures of wickedness in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure that is abominable?
Ali so še zakladi zlobnosti v hiši zlobnega in skopa mera, kar je gnusno?
11 'Shall I be pure with wicked balances, and with a bag of deceitful weights?'
Mar jih bom štel za čiste z zlobnimi tehtnicami in s torbo varljivih uteži?
12 For the rich men thereof are full of violence, and the inhabitants thereof have spoken lies, and their tongue is deceitful in their mouth.
Kajti njegovi bogataši so polni nasilja in njegovi prebivalci so govorili laži in njihov jezik je varljiv v njihovih ustih.
13 Therefore I also do smite thee with a grievous wound; I do make thee desolate because of thy sins.
Zato te bom tudi jaz naredil bolnega, ko te bom udarjal, ko te bom pustošil zaradi tvojih grehov.
14 Thou shalt eat, but not be satisfied; and thy sickness shall be in thine inward parts; and thou shalt conceive, but shalt not bring forth; and whomsoever thou bringest forth will I give up to the sword.
Jedel boš, toda ne boš nasičen in tvoja sestradanost bo v tvoji sredi in prijel boš, toda ne boš rešil in to, kar rešiš, bom izročil meču.
15 Thou shalt sow, but shalt not reap; thou shalt tread the olives, but shalt not anoint thee with oil; and the vintage, but shalt not drink wine.
Sejal boš, toda ne boš žel; tlačil olive, toda z oljem se ne boš mazilil; in sladko vino, toda vina ne boš pil.
16 For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the works of the house of Ahab, and ye walk in their counsels; that I may make thee an astonishment, and the inhabitants thereof a hissing; and ye shall bear the reproach of My people.
Kajti držijo se Omrijevih zakonov in vseh del Ahábove hiše in vi se ravnate po njihovih nasvetih, da bi te naredil za opustošenje in njegove prebivalce za posmeh. Zatorej boste nosili grajo mojega ljudstva.
