Michaeas 2
1 They meditated troubles, and wrought wickedness on their beds, and they put it in execution with the daylight; for they have not lifted up their hands to God.
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 desired fields, and plundered orphans, and oppressed families, and spoiled a man and his house, even a man and his inheritance.
Amasirira minda ndi kuyilanda, amasirira nyumba ndi kuzilanda. Amatenga nyumba ya munthu mwachinyengo, munthu mnzawo kumulanda cholowa chake.
3 Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I devise evils against this family, out of which you shall not lift up your necks, neither shall you walk upright speedily: for the 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 a parable be taken up against you, and a plaintive lamentation shall be uttered, saying, We are thoroughly miserable: the portion of my people has been measured out with a line, and there was none to hinder him so as to turn him back; your fields have been divided.
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 you shall have no one to cast a line for the lot.
Nʼchifukwa chake simudzakhala ndi munthu mu msonkhano wa Yehova kuti agawe dziko pochita maere.
6 Weep not with tears in the assembly of the Lord, neither let [any] weep for these things; for he shall not remove the reproaches,
Aneneri awo amanena kuti, “Usanenere! Usanenere ndi pangʼono pomwe zimenezi; ife sitidzachititsidwa manyazi.”
7 who says, The house of Jacob has provoked the Spirit of the Lord; are not these his practices? Are not the Lord's words right with him? and have they not proceeded correctly?
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 beforetime my people withstood [him] as an enemy against his peace; they have stripped off his skin to remove hope [in] the conflict of war.
Posachedwapa anthu anga andiwukira ngati mdani. Mumawavula mkanjo wamtengowapatali anthu amene amadutsa mosaopa kanthu, monga anthu amene akubwera ku nkhondo.
9 The leaders of my people shall be cast forth from their luxurious houses; they are rejected because of their evil practices; draw you near to the everlasting mountains.
Mumatulutsa akazi a anthu anga mʼnyumba zawo zabwino. Mumalanda ana awo madalitso anga kosatha.
10 Arise you, and depart; for this is not your rest because of uncleanness: you have been utterly destroyed;
Nyamukani, chokani! Pakuti ano si malo anu opumulirapo, chifukwa ayipitsidwa, awonongedwa, sangatheke kuwakonzanso.
11 you have fled, no one pursuing [you: your] spirit has framed falsehood, it has dropped on you for wine and strong drink. But it shall come to pass, [that] out of the dropping 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 Jacob shall be completely gathered with all [his people: ] I will surely receive the remnant of Israel; I will cause them to return together, as sheep in trouble, as a flock in the midst of their fold: they shall rush forth from among men through the breach made before them:
“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 they have broken through, and passed the gate, and gone out by it: and their king has gone out before them, and the Lord shall lead them.
Amene adzawapulumutse adzayenda patsogolo pawo; iwo adzathyola chipata ndipo adzatuluka. Mfumu yawo idzawatsogolera, Yehova adzakhala patsogolo pawo.”
