Micah 1
1 A word of YHWH that has been to Micah the Morashite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah, that he has seen concerning Samaria and Jerusalem:
| هَذِهِ كَلِمَةُ الرَّبِّ الَّتِي أَوْحَى بِها إِلَى مِيخَا الْمُورَشْتِيِّ فِي أَثْنَاءِ حُكْمِ يُوثَامَ وَآحَازَ وَحَزَقِيَّا مُلُوكِ يَهُوذَا، بِشَأْنِ السَّامِرَةِ وَأُورُشَلِيمَ. | ١ |
2 Hear, O peoples, all of them! Attend, O earth, and its fullness, And Lord YHWH is against you for a witness, The Lord from His holy temple.
| اسْمَعُوا يَا جَمِيعَ الشُّعُوبِ، وَأَصْغِي أَيَّتُهَا الأَرْضُ وَكُلُّ مَنْ فِيهَا، وَلْيَكُنِ السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ مِنْ هَيْكَلِهِ الْمُقَدَّسِ شَاهِداً عَلَيْكُمْ. | ٢ |
3 For behold, YHWH is going out from His place, And He has come down, And has trodden on high places of earth.
| انْظُرُوا: هَا هُوَ الرَّبُّ خَارِجٌ مِنْ مَقَرِّ سُكْنَاهُ. هُوَذَا يَنْزِلُ لِيَطَأَ مَشَارِفَ الأَرْضِ، | ٣ |
4 The mountains have been melted under Him, And the valleys split themselves, As wax from the presence of fire, As waters cast down by a slope.
| فَتَذُوبُ الْجِبَالُ مِنْ تَحْتِ قَدَمَيْهِ، وَتَتَصَدَّعُ الْوِدْيَانُ كَالشَّمْعِ أَمَامَ النَّارِ، كَالْمِيَاهِ الْمُنْصَبَّةِ فِي الْمُنْخَفَضَاتِ. | ٤ |
5 For the transgression of Jacob [is] all this, And for the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what the high places of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
| مِنْ أَجْلِ آثَامِ يَعْقُوبَ وَمِنْ أَجْلِ خَطَايَا بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. فَمَا هُوَ ذَنْبُ يَعْقُوبَ؟ أَلَيْسَ هُوَ أَصْنَامَ السَّامِرَةِ؟ وَمَا هِيَ خَطِيئَةُ يَهُوذَا؟ أَلَيْسَتْ هِيَ أَوْثَانَ أُورُشَلِيمَ؟ | ٥ |
6 “And I have set Samaria for a heap of the field, For plantations of a vineyard, And poured out into a valley her stones, And her foundations I uncover.
| لِذَلِكَ سَأَجْعَلُ السَّامِرَةَ كَوْمَةَ حِجَارَةٍ فِي الْحَقْلِ وَمَغْرَساً لِلْكُرُومِ، وَأَقْذِفُ بِحِجَارَتِهَا إِلَى الْوَادِي، وَأُعَرِّي أَسَاسَاتِهَا. | ٦ |
7 And all her carved images are beaten down, And all her wages are burned with fire, And all her idols I make a desolation, For from the wage of a harlot she gathered, and to the wage of a harlot they return.”
| فَتَتَحَطَّمُ كُلُّ أَصْنَامِهَا، وَتُحْرَقُ كُلُّ تَقْدِمَاتِ زِنَاهَا بِالنَّارِ، وَأُدَمِّرُ جَمِيعَ تَمَاثِيلِهَا لأَنَّهَا جَمَعَتْهَا مِنْ أُجْرَةِ زَانِيَةٍ، وَإِلَى زَانِيَةٍ يَكُونُ مَآلُهَا. | ٧ |
8 For this I lament and howl, I go spoiled and naked, I make a lamentation like dragons, And a mourning like daughters of an ostrich.
| لِهَذَا أَنُوحُ وَأُوَلْوِلُ وَأَمْشِي حَافِياً عُرْيَاناً، وَأُعْوِلُ كَبَنَاتِ آوَى، وَأَنْتَحِبُ كَالنَّعَامِ. | ٨ |
9 For mortal [are] her wounds, For it has come to Judah, It has come to a gate of My people—to Jerusalem.
| لأَنَّ جُرُوحَ السَّامِرَةِ لَنْ تَنْدَمِلَ، وَهِيَ لابُدَّ أَنْ تُصِيبَ يَهُوذَا، هَا هِيَ قَدْ بَلَغَتْ أَبْوَابَ شَعْبِي أَهْلِ أُورُشَلِيمَ. | ٩ |
10 In Gath do not tell—in Acco do not weep, In Beth-Aphrah, roll yourself in dust.
| لَا تُخْبِرُوا فِي جَتَّ، وَلا تَبْكُوا فِي عَكَّاءَ. عَفِّرُوا أَنْفُسَكُمْ بِالتُّرَابِ فِي بَيْتِ عَفْرَةَ. | ١٠ |
11 Pass over for you, O inhabitant of Shaphir, Naked one of shame. The inhabitant of Zaanan has not gone out, The lamentation of Beth-Ezel takes from you its standing.
| اخْرُجُوا يَا أَهْلَ شَافِيرَ عَرَايَا مُجَلَّلِينَ بِالْعَارِ، وَلْيَمْكُثْ سُكَّانُ صَانَانَ فِي مَنَازِلِهِمْ خَجَلاً. وَعِنْدَمَا تَسْمَعُونَ عَوِيلَ أَهْلِ هَأَيْصِلَ تُدْرِكُونَ أَنَّهَا قَدْ سَقَطَتْ وَلا مَلْجَأَ لَكُمْ فِيهَا. | ١١ |
12 For the inhabitant of Maroth has stayed for good, For calamity has come down from YHWH to the gate of Jerusalem.
| لَشَدَّ مَا انْتَظَرَ أَهْلُ مَارُوثَ الْخَيْرَ، غَيْرَ أَنَّ الشَّرَّ قَدْ أَقْبَلَ عَلَى بَابِ أُورُشَلِيمَ مِنْ عِنْدِ الرَّبِّ. | ١٢ |
13 Bind the chariot to a swift beast, O inhabitant of Lachish, The beginning of sin [is] she to the daughter of Zion, For in you have been found the transgressions of Israel.
| شُدُّوا الْخَيْلَ إِلَى الْمَرْكَبَاتِ يَا سُكَّانَ لاخِيشَ، لأَنَّكُمْ كُنْتُمْ أَوَّلَ مَنِ ارْتَكَبَ الْخَطِيئَةَ بَيْنَ مُدُنِ صِهْيَوْنَ، وَفِيكُمْ قَدْ وُجِدَتْ آثَامُ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٣ |
14 Therefore you give presents to Moresheth-Gath, The houses of Achzib become a lying thing to the kings of Israel.
| لِهَذَا تَحْمِلُونَ هَدَايَا وَدَاعٍ إِلَى مُورَشَةِ جَتَّ، وَتُصْبِحُ مَدِينَةُ أَكْزِيبَ خِدْعَةً لِمُلُوكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٤ |
15 Yet I bring the possessor to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah, The glory of Israel comes to Adullam.
| وَأَبْعَثُ إِلَيْكُمْ بِقَاهِرٍ يَا أَهْلَ مَرِيشَةَ، فَيَهْرُبُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِ نُبَلاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ إِلَى مَغَارَةِ عَدُلَّامَ. | ١٥ |
16 Make bald and shave, for your delightful sons, Enlarge your baldness as an eagle, For they have removed from you!
| احْلِقُوا رُؤُوسَكُمْ وَجُزُّوا شُعُورَكُمْ مِنْ أَجْلِ أَبْنَاءِ مَسَرَّتِكُمْ. اجْعَلُوا رُؤُوسَكُمْ صَلْعَاءَ كَرَأْسِ النَّسْرِ، لأَنَّهُمْ سَيُؤْخَذُونَ مِنْكُمْ إِلَى السَّبْيِ. | ١٦ |
