Micah 2
1 Woe to those that devise wickedness, and resolve on evil upon their couches! by the first light of the morning they execute it, if they have it in the power of their hand.
Warra daba karoorfatan kanneen siree isaanii irra ciisanii hammina yaadaniif wayyoo! Sababii waan kana hojjechuun humna isaanii jala jiruuf isaan ifa bariitiin kaʼanii waan sana hojjetu.
2 And they covet fields, and rob them; and houses, and take them away: so they defraud the master and his house, and the man and his heritage.
Isaan lafa qotiisaa kajeelanii qabatu; manneenis akkasuma kajeelanii fudhatu. Isaan gowwoomsaadhaan mana namaa, dhaala isaas ni fudhatu.
3 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will devise against this family an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; nor shall ye go erect; for it is an evil time.
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Kunoo ani balaa isin jalaa baʼuu hin dandeenye tokko saba kanatti fiduuf karoorfadheen jira. Isin siʼachi of tuulummaadhaan jiraachuu hin dandeessan; yeroon kun yeroo rakkinaa taʼaatii.
4 On that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a mournful lamentation, and say, “We are utterly wasted: the portion of my people hath he exchanged; how hath he removed it from me! instead of restoring [them to us] he divideth our fields.”
Bara sana keessa namoonni isinitti gaʼisu; akkana jedhaniis faaruu booʼichaa kanaan isinitti qoosu; ‘Nu guutumaan guutuutti barbadoofneerra; qabeenyi saba kootiis gargar qooddatameera. Inni narraa fudhata! Lafa qotiisaa keenya warra nu moʼataniif kenna.’”
5 Therefore shalt thou have none that shall draw the [measuring] cord in [his] lot in the congregation of the Lord.
Kanaafuu ati nama ixaadhaan lafa qoodu tokko illee waldaa Waaqayyoo keessaa hin qabaattu.
6 “Preach not;” [but] they shall preach: they shall not preach [indeed] to these, that reproach may not overtake them.
Raajonni isaanii, “Isin raajii hin dubbatinaa; waaʼee waan kanaa raajii hin dubbatinaa; salphinni nutti hin dhufu” jedhu.
7 Shall it be said [in] the house of Jacob, Is the spirit of the Lord straightened? are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
Yaa mana Yaaqoob, “Wanni kun akkana jedhamuu qabaa? Hafuurri Waaqayyoo obsa hin qabuu? Inni waan akkasii ni hojjetaa?” “Nama karaan isaa qajeelaa taʼeef dubbiin koo waan gaarii hin hojjetuu?
8 But long since is my people risen up as an enemy: from the garment do you pull off the ornament; of those that pass by securely [ye make] men returned from war.
Sabni koo akka diinaatti kaʼeera. Isin namoota yaaddoo malee achiin darban kanneen duulaa galaa jiran irraa uffata baafattu.
9 The wives of my people do you drive out of their delightful houses; from their children do ye take away my ornament for ever.
Isin dubartoota saba kootii manneen isaanii babbareedoo keessaa ariitu. Eebba koos bara baraan ijoollee isaanii irraa fudhattu.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your resting-place; because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a grievous destruction.
Kaʼaatii asii deemaa! Iddoon kun lafa boqonnaa keessanii miti; isheen xurooftee diigamtee baddeerti.
11 If a man that goeth after wind and lieth with falsehood [should say], “I will preach unto thee of wine and of strong drink:” he would be a preacher for this people.
Namni sobaa fi gowwoomsaan tokko yoo dhufee, ‘Ani waaʼee daadhii wayiniitii fi dhugaatii cimaa raajii siif nan dubbadha’ jedhe; inni raajii saba kanaa taʼa!
12 I will [once] surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather up the remnant of Israel; I will place them together as flocks in the fold, as droves in the midst of their pen: they shall be crowded with men.
“Yaa Yaaqoob, ani dhugumaan isin hunda walitti nan qaba; ani hambaa Israaʼel walitti nan fida. Ani akkuma hoolota gola keessaatti, akkuma bushaayee lafa dheedaa jiraniitti walitti isaan nan fida; lafti sunis tuuta namaatiin guutamti.
13 The wall-breaker cometh up before them; they break in and pass through the gate, and go out by it: and their king passeth on before them, and the Lord at their head.
Inni cabsee karaa baasu fuula isaanii dura deema; isaan cabsanii karraan baʼu. Mootiin isaanii isaan dura baʼa; Waaqayyo fuula isaanii dura deema.”
