Micah 6
1 Do but hear now what the Lord saith, Arise, contend thou before the mountains, and let the hills hear thy voice.
Kowos in lohng ma LEUM GOD El lain Israel kac. Tuyak, O LEUM GOD, ac fahk ma kom lain Israel kac. Lela fineol uh ac inging uh in lohng ma kom fahk an.
2 Hear ye, O mountains, the controversy of the Lord, and ye strong foundations of the earth! for the Lord hath a controversy with his people, and with Israel will he plead.
Kowos eol uh, su pwelung kawil lun faclu, porongo mwe nununku lun LEUM GOD! Oasr ma se LEUM GOD El nununku mwet lal kac. El ac srukak sie kas in tukak in lain Israel.
3 O my people, what have I done unto thee? and wherewith have I wearied thee? testify against me.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet luk, mea nga oru koluk nu suwos uh? Nga aktoasrye kowos fuka? Topukyu.
4 Although I had brought thee up out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of bond-men; and I sent before thee Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
Nga uskowosme liki Egypt. Nga tulekowosla liki kohs. Nga supwalot Moses, Aaron, ac Miriam in tuh pwenkowosla.
5 O my people, do but remember what Balak the king of Moab resolved, and what Bil'am the son of Be'or answered him, from Shittim unto Gilgal, in order that ye may know the gracious benefits of the Lord.
Mwet luk, esam ma Tokosra Balak lun Moab el tuh akoo in oru nu suwos, ac mea Balaam, wen natul Beor, el topuk nu sel. Esam ma tuh sikyak ke kowos fahsr liki nien aktuktuk Acacia nu Gilgal. Esam ma inge ac kowos fah akilen ma nga tuh oru in molikowosla.”
6 Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, bow myself before the God on high? shall I come before him with burnt-offerings, with calves of a year old!
Mea nga ac use nu sin LEUM GOD lun kusrao, ke nga ac tuku in alu nu sel? Ya nga ac use cow fusr ma wo emeet in mwe kisa firir nu sel?
7 Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or with myriads of streams of oil? shall I give my first-born for my transgression, the fruit of my body for the sin of my soul?
Ya LEUM GOD El fah insewowo nga fin use pus liki tausin sheep mukul nu yorol, ku pus liki singoul infacl in oil in olive? Ya nga ac kisakin wounse se nutik in sang moli ma koluk luk?
8 He hath told thee, O man, what is good; and what the Lord doth require of thee: [nothing] but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God.
Mo, LEUM GOD El fahk tari nu sesr lah mea wo uh. Ma El enenu sesr uh inge: in oru ma suwohs, in moulkin lungse pacl e nukewa, ac in moul in inse pusisel yurin God lasr.
9 The voice of the Lord calleth unto the city, —and [the man of] wisdom shall see thy name: —hear ye the rod [of punishment], and who hath ordained it.
Sie mwet fin lalmwetmet el ac etu in sangeng sin LEUM GOD. LEUM GOD El pang nu sin mwet in siti Jerusalem ac fahk, “Lohng, kowos mwet su fahsreni nu in siti uh!
10 Are there yet in the house of the wicked man the treasures of wickedness, and the scant accursed measure?
Oasr ma saok in lohm sin mwet koluk uh, su elos eisla ke inkanek kutasrik. Elos orekmakin mwe srikasrak kikiap, sie ouiya su nga kwase.
11 Can I be pure with wicked balances, and with a bag [full] of deceptive weights?
Nga ac nunak munas fuka nu sin mwet su orekmakin mwe paun sutuu ac srikasrak kikiap?
12 For her rich men are full of violence, and her inhabitants have spoken falsehood, and their tongue is deceit [itself] in their mouth.
Mwet kasrup lowos aklalfonye mwet sukasrup, ac kowos nukewa mwet kikiap.
13 Therefore have I also smitten thee with sore wounds, making [thee] desolate because of thy sins.
Ke ma inge nga mutawauk tari in sot mwe ongoiya nu suwos, in kunauskowosla ke sripen ma koluk lowos.
14 Thou wilt indeed eat, but not be satisfied; and what thou hast eaten shall bend thee down; and thou wilt overtake [the enemy], but thou shalt not deliver; and that which thou deliverest will I give up to the sword.
Kowos ac mongo ac tia kihpi — aok, kowos ac masrinsral na. Kowos ac telak ma uh, a ac tia ku in oan paht yuruwos. Kutena ma lula yuruwos nga fah kunausla ke mweun.
15 Thou wilt indeed sow, but thou shalt not reap; thou wilt indeed tread out olives, but thou shalt not anoint thyself with oil; and the juice of the grapes, but thou shalt not drink wine.
Kowos ac taknelik wheat, tuh tia ku in kosrani kac. Kowos ac fule oil liki olive, tuh koflana orekmakin. Kowos ac orek wain, tuh tiana nim kac.
16 For there are observed the statutes of 'Omri, and all the works of the house of Achab, and ye walk in their counsels: in order that I should give thee up unto desolation, and thy inhabitants to derision; and ye shall bear the reproach of my people.
Ma inge fah sikyak mweyen kowos fahsr tukun ouiya koluk lal Tokosra Omri ac Tokosra Ahab, wen natul, ac tafwelana in oru oakwuk laltal. Ke ma inge nga fah kunauskowosla, ac mwet nukewa ac fah srungakowos. Mutanfahl nukewa fah aklusrongtenye kowos.”
