Micah 2
1 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.
Tsoka kwa amene amakonzekera chiwembu, kwa amene amakonzekera kuchita zoyipa usiku pa mabedi awo! Kukacha mmawa amakachitadi chifukwa ali ndi mphamvu zochitira zimenezo.
2 And they covet fields, and take [them] by violence; and houses, and take [them] away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Amasirira minda ndi kuyilanda, amasirira nyumba ndi kuzilanda. Amatenga nyumba ya munthu mwachinyengo, munthu mnzawo kumulanda cholowa chake.
3 Therefore thus saith the LORD; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time [is] evil.
Nʼchifukwa chake Yehova akuti, “Ine ndikukonzekera kubweretsa tsoka pa anthu awa, tsoka limene simudzatha kudzipulumutsa nokha. Inu simudzayendanso monyada, pakuti idzakhala nthawi ya masautso.
4 In that day shall [one] take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, [and] say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed [it] from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.
Tsiku limenelo anthu adzakuchitani chipongwe; adzakunyogodolani ndi nyimbo iyi yamaliro: ‘Tawonongeka kotheratu; dziko la anthu anga lagawidwa. Iye wandilanda! Wapereka minda yathu kwa anthu otiwukira.’”
5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the LORD.
Nʼchifukwa chake simudzakhala ndi munthu mu msonkhano wa Yehova kuti agawe dziko pochita maere.
6 Prophesy ye not, [say they to them that] prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, [that] they shall not take shame.
Aneneri awo amanena kuti, “Usanenere! Usanenere ndi pangʼono pomwe zimenezi; ife sitidzachititsidwa manyazi.”
7 O [thou that art] named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the LORD straitened? [are] these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
Inu nyumba ya Yakobo, monga zimenezi ndi zoyenera kuzinena: “Kodi Mzimu wa Yehova wakwiya? Kodi Iye amachita zinthu zotere?” “Kodi mawu ake sabweretsa zabwino kwa amene amayenda molungama?
8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
Posachedwapa anthu anga andiwukira ngati mdani. Mumawavula mkanjo wamtengowapatali anthu amene amadutsa mosaopa kanthu, monga anthu amene akubwera ku nkhondo.
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
Mumatulutsa akazi a anthu anga mʼnyumba zawo zabwino. Mumalanda ana awo madalitso anga kosatha.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this [is] not [your] rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a sore destruction.
Nyamukani, chokani! Pakuti ano si malo anu opumulirapo, chifukwa ayipitsidwa, awonongedwa, sangatheke kuwakonzanso.
11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, [saying], I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
Ngati munthu wabodza ndi wachinyengo abwera nʼkunena kuti, ‘Ine ndidzanenera ndipo mudzakhala ndi vinyo ndi mowa wambiri, woteroyo adzakhala mneneri amene anthu awa angamukonde!’
12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of [the multitude of] men.
“Inu banja la Yakobo, ndidzakusonkhanitsani nonse; ndidzawasonkhanitsa pamodzi otsala a ku Israeli. Ndidzawabweretsa pamodzi ngati nkhosa mʼkhola, ngati ziweto pa msipu wake; malowo adzadzaza ndi chinamtindi cha anthu.
13 The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the LORD on the head of them.
Amene adzawapulumutse adzayenda patsogolo pawo; iwo adzathyola chipata ndipo adzatuluka. Mfumu yawo idzawatsogolera, Yehova adzakhala patsogolo pawo.”
