Micah 3
1 And I said, Hear, I pray you, O ye heads of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel! Is it not for you to know what is justice?
| وَقُلْتُ: «ٱسْمَعُوا يَا رُؤَسَاءَ يَعْقُوبَ، وَقُضَاةَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. أَلَيْسَ لَكُمْ أَنْ تَعْرِفُوا ٱلْحَقَّ؟ | ١ |
2 [But they are those] who hate the good, and love the evil; who tear their skin from off them, and their flesh from off their bones;
| ٱلْمُبْغِضِينَ ٱلْخَيْرَ وَٱلْمُحِبِّينَ ٱلشَّرَّ، ٱلنَّازِعِينَ جُلُودَهُمْ عَنْهُمْ، وَلَحْمَهُمْ عَنْ عِظَامِهِمْ. | ٢ |
3 Who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them; and who crush their bones, and chop them in pieces, as that to be put in a pot, and as flesh within a caldron.
| وَٱلَّذِينَ يَأْكُلُونَ لَحْمَ شَعْبِي، وَيَكْشُطُونَ جِلْدَهُمْ عَنْهُمْ، وَيُهَشِّمُونَ عِظَامَهُمْ، وَيُشَقِّقُونَ كَمَا فِي ٱلْقِدْرِ، وَكَٱللَّحْمِ فِي وَسَطِ ٱلْمِقْلَى». | ٣ |
4 Then will they cry unto the Lord, but he will not hear them; and he will hide his face from them at that time, as they have committed their evil deeds.
| حِينَئِذٍ يَصْرُخُونَ إِلَى ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَا يُجِيبُهُمْ، بَلْ يَسْتُرُ وَجْهَهُ عَنْهُمْ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْوَقْتِ كَمَا أَسَاءُوا أَعْمَالَهُمْ. | ٤ |
5 Thus hath said the Lord concerning the prophets that mislead my people, who, when they have something to bite with their teeth, cry, Peace; but who prepare war against him who putteth nothing in their mouth:
| هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ ٱلَّذِينَ يُضِلُّونَ شَعْبِي، ٱلَّذِينَ يَنْهَشُونَ بِأَسْنَانِهِمْ، وَيُنَادُونَ: «سَلَامٌ»! وَٱلَّذِي لَا يَجْعَلُ فِي أَفْوَاهِهِمْ شَيْئًا، يَفْتَحُونَ عَلَيْهِ حَرْبًا: | ٥ |
6 Therefore shall the night be unto you, without a vision; and it shall be dark unto you, without divining; and the sun shall go down around the prophets, and the day shall be obscured around them.
| «لِذَلِكَ تَكُونُ لَكُمْ لَيْلَةٌ بِلَا رُؤْيَا. ظَلَامٌ لَكُمْ بِدُونِ عِرَافَةٍ. وَتَغِيبُ ٱلشَّمْسُ عَنِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ، وَيُظْلِمُ عَلَيْهِمِ ٱلنَّهَارُ. | ٦ |
7 Thus shall the seers be made ashamed, and the diviners be put to the blush: yea, they shall all wrap themselves up to the upper lip; for there is no answer of God.
| فَيَخْزَى ٱلرَّاؤُونَ، وَيَخْجَلُ ٱلْعَرَّافُونَ، وَيُغَطُّونَ كُلُّهُمْ شَوَارِبَهُمْ، لِأَنَّهُ لَيْسَ جَوَابٌ مِنَ ٱللهِ». | ٧ |
8 But truly I am indeed full of strength by the spirit of the Lord, and [of power] of judging, and of might, to tell unto Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
| لَكِنَّنِي أَنَا مَلْآنٌ قُوَّةَ رُوحِ ٱلرَّبِّ وَحَقًّا وَبَأْسًا، لِأُخَبِّرَ يَعْقُوبَ بِذَنْبِهِ وَإِسْرَائِيلَ بِخَطِيَّتِهِ. | ٨ |
9 Hear this, I pray you, ye heads of the house of Jacob, and ye princes of the house of Israel, that abhor justice, and make crooked all that is straight.
| اِسْمَعُوا هَذَا يَا رُؤَسَاءَ بَيْتِ يَعْقُوبَ وَقُضَاةَ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، ٱلَّذِينَ يَكْرَهُونَ ٱلْحَقَّ وَيُعَوِّجُونَ كُلَّ مُسْتَقِيمٍ. | ٩ |
10 They build up Zion with blood-guiltiness, and Jerusalem with wrong.
| ٱلَّذِينَ يَبْنُونَ صِهْيَوْنَ بِٱلدِّمَاءِ، وَأُورُشَلِيمَ بِٱلظُّلْمِ. | ١٠ |
11 Her heads judge for bribes, and her priests teach for reward, and her prophets divine for money: and yet will they lean upon the Lord, and say, Is not the Lord among us? evil cannot come over us.
| رُؤَسَاؤُهَا يَقْضُونَ بِٱلرَّشْوَةِ، وَكَهَنَتُهَا يُعَلِّمُونَ بِٱلْأُجْرَةِ، وَأَنْبِيَاؤُهَا يَعْرِفُونَ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَهُمْ يَتَوَكَّلُونَ عَلَى ٱلرَّبِّ قَائِلِينَ: «أَلَيْسَ ٱلرَّبُّ فِي وَسَطِنَا؟ لَا يَأْتِي عَلَيْنَا شَرٌّ!». | ١١ |
12 Therefore for your sake shall Zion be ploughed up as a field, and Jerusalem shall become ruinous heaps, and the mount of the house, forest-covered high-places.
| لِذَلِكَ بِسَبَبِكُمْ تُفْلَحُ صِهْيَوْنُ كَحَقْلٍ، وَتَصِيرُ أُورُشَلِيمُ خِرَبًا، وَجَبَلُ ٱلْبَيْتِ شَوَامِخَ وَعْرٍ. | ١٢ |
