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.
Ègbé ni fún àwọn tí ń gbèrò àìṣedéédéé tí wọ́n sì ń ṣiṣẹ́ ibi lórí ibùsùn wọn! Nígbà tí ojúmọ́ bá mọ́, wọn yóò gbé e jáde nítorí ó wà ní agbára wọn láti ṣe é.
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.
Wọ́n sì ń ṣe ojúkòkòrò oko, wọ́n sì fi agbára wọn gbà wọ́n, àti àwọn ilé, wọ́n sì gbà wọ́n. Wọ́n sì ni ènìyàn àti ilẹ̀ rẹ̀ lára àní ènìyàn àti ohun ìní rẹ̀.
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.
Nítorí náà, Olúwa wí pé: “Èmi ń gbèrò ibi sí àwọn ìdílé wọ̀nyí, nínú èyí tí wọn kì yóò le è gba ara wọn là. Ìwọ kì yóò sì lè máa rìn ní ìgbéraga mọ́, nítorí yóò jẹ́ àkókò ibi.
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.”
Ní ọjọ́ náà ni ẹnìkan yóò pa òwe kan sí yín; wọn yóò sì pohùnréré ẹkún kíkorò pé: ‘Ní kíkó a ti kó wọn tán; Olúwa ti pín ohun ìní àwọn ènìyàn mi; Ó ti mú un kúrò lọ́dọ̀ mi! Ó fi oko wa lé àwọn ọlọ̀tẹ̀ lọ́wọ́.’”
5 Therefore shalt thou have none that shall draw the [measuring] cord in [his] lot in the congregation of the Lord.
Nítorí náà, ìwọ kò ní ní ẹnìkankan tí yóò ta okùn nínú ìjọ Olúwa, tí yóò pín ilẹ̀ nípa ìbò.
6 “Preach not;” [but] they shall preach: they shall not preach [indeed] to these, that reproach may not overtake them.
“Ẹ má ṣe sọtẹ́lẹ̀,” ni àwọn wòlíì wọn wí. “Ẹ má ṣe sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nípa nǹkan wọ̀nyí; kí ìtìjú má ṣe le bá wa.”
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?
Ṣé kí á sọ ọ́, ìwọ ilé Jakọbu: “Ǹjẹ́ ẹ̀mí Olúwa ha ń bínú bí? Ǹjẹ́ iṣẹ́ rẹ ha nìwọ̀nyí?” “Ǹjẹ́ ọ̀rọ̀ mi kò ha ń ṣe rere fún ẹni tí ń rìn déédé bí?
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.
Láìpẹ́ àwọn ènìyàn mi dìde bí ọ̀tá sí mi. Ìwọ bọ́ aṣọ ọlọ́rọ̀ kúrò lára àwọn tí ń kọjá lọ ní àìléwu, bí àwọn ẹni tí ó padà bọ̀ láti ojú ogun.
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.
Ẹ̀yin sì lé obìnrin àwọn ènìyàn mi kúrò nínú ilé ayọ̀ wọn, ẹ̀yin sì ti gba ògo mi, kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọmọ wọn láéláé.
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.
Ẹ dìde, kí ẹ sì máa lọ! Nítorí èyí kì í ṣe ibi ìsinmi yín, nítorí tí a ti sọ ọ́ di àìmọ́ yóò pa yín run, àní ìparun kíkorò.
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.
Tí òpùrọ́ àti ẹlẹ́tàn bá wà tí wọ́n sì wí pé, ‘Èmi yóò sọtẹ́lẹ̀ fún ọ nípa ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ wáìnì àti ọtí líle,’ òun ni yóò tilẹ̀ ṣe wòlíì àwọn ènìyàn wọ̀nyí!
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.
“Èmi yóò kó gbogbo yín jọ, ìwọ Jakọbu; Èmi yóò gbá ìyókù Israẹli jọ. Èmi yóò kó wọn jọ pọ̀ gẹ́gẹ́ bí àgùntàn nínú agbo ẹran, gẹ́gẹ́ bí ọ̀wọ́ ẹran nínú agbo wọn, ibẹ̀ yóò sì pariwo nítorí ọ̀pọ̀ ènìyàn.
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.
Ẹni tí ó ń fọ ọ̀nà yóò lọ sókè níwájú wọn; wọn yóò fọ láti ẹnu ibodè, wọn yóò sì jáde lọ. Àwọn ọba wọn yóò sì kọjá lọ níwájú wọn, Olúwa ni yóò sì ṣe olórí wọn.”
