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?
Kinunak, “Ita, dumngegkayo, dakayo a mangidadaulo iti Jacob ken agturturay iti balay ni Israel: Saan kadi a rumbeng a maawatanyo ti hustisia?
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;
Dakayo a manggurgura iti naimbag ken mangay-ayat iti dakes, dakayo a manglaplaplap iti kudilda, iti lasagda manipud kadagiti tulangda-
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.
dakayo met a mangkakaan iti lasag dagiti tattaok, ken manglaplapgis iti kudilda, mangtuktukkol kadagiti tulangda ken mangtadtadtad kadakuada, a kasla karne nga iluto iti banga, a kasla karne iti kaldero.
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.
Ket dakayo a mangiturturay, umawagkayonto kenni Yahweh, ngem saanakayonto a sungbatan. Iti dayta a tiempo, saannakayonto a denggen, gapu ta naka-aramidkayo iti dakes.”
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:
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kadagiti profeta a mangiyaw-awan kadagiti tattaok: “Ipablaakda kadagiti mangpakpakan kadakuada, ‘Addanto iti kinarang-ay.' Ngem para kadagiti awan ti maipakanna kadakuada, mangirugida iti gubat a maibusor kenkuana.
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.
Ngarud, agbalinto daytoy a rabii kadakayo ket awanton ti masirmatayo; sumipngetto daytoy tapno awanto ti maipadtoyo. Lumnekton ti init kadagiti profeta, ket sumipngetto ti aldaw kadakuada.
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.
Maibabainto dagiti mammadles, ken mariribukanto dagiti mammadto. Apputendanto amin dagiti bibigda, ta saankonto ida a sungbatan.”
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.
Ngem no maipapan kaniak, napnoanak iti pannakabalin babaen iti Espiritu ni Yahweh, ken napnoanak iti hustisia ken bileg, a mangibutaktak iti panagsalungasing ni Jacob ken iti basol ni Israel.
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.
Ita, denggenyo daytoy, dakayo a mangidadaulo iti balay ni Jacob, ken agturturay iti balay ni Israel, dakayo a mangurgura iti hustisia, ken mangkilkillo iti amin a nalinteg.
10 They build up Zion with blood-guiltiness, and Jerusalem with wrong.
Ipatakderyo ti Sion babaen iti panagpasayasay iti dara ken ti Jerusalem babaen iti kinadakes.
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.
Mangukom dagiti mangidadauloyo gapu iti pasuksok, mangisuro dagiti padiyo gapu iti gunggona, ken agipadto dagiti profetayo gapu iti kuarta. Ngem agsadagkayo latta kenni Yahweh ket kunayo, “Saan kadi nga adda kadatayo ni Yahweh? Awanto ti dakes nga umay kadatayo.”
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.
Ngarud, gapu kadakayo, maaradonto ti Sion a kas iti maysa a talon, agbalinto ti Jerusalem a gabsuon iti nagrebbaan, ken agbalinto ti turod iti templo a kasla kabakiran a turod.
