Micah 5
1 Now gather yourself together, O daughter of troops, He has laid a siege against us, They strike [the] judge of Israel on the cheek with a rod.
Ugbu a doo ndị agha gị nʼusoro, gị obodo nke usuu ndị agha, nʼihi na e jirila mgbidi gbaa gị gburugburu ibuso gị agha. Ha ga-eji mkpara tie onyendu Izrel na nti.
2 “And you, Beth-Lehem Ephratah, Little to be among the chiefs of Judah! From you He comes forth to Me—to be ruler in Israel, And His comings forth [are] of old, From the days of antiquity.”
“Ma gị onwe gị, Betlehem Efrata, ọ bụ ezie na ị bụ obodo dị nta nʼetiti ndị ikwu Juda niile, ma onye ahụ ga-achị Izrel ga-esi na gị pụta, bụ onye ahụ mmalite ya sitere na mgbe ochie, sitekwa na mgbe ebighị ebi gara aga.”
3 Therefore He gives them up until the time she who brings forth has brought forth, And the remnant of His brothers return to the sons of Israel.
Ya mere, a ga-arara ha nye tutu ruo mgbe onye ahụ ime na-eme mụpụtara nwa ya. Mgbe ahụ, ụmụnna ya niile ahụ fọdụrụ ga-alọghachikwuru ndị Izrel.
4 And He has stood and delighted in the strength of YHWH, In the excellence of the Name of His God YHWH, And they have remained, For now He is great to the ends of the earth.
Ọ ga-eguzo zụọ igwe ewu na atụrụ ya, site nʼike nke Onyenwe anyị, na site nʼịdị ukwuu nke aha Onyenwe anyị Chineke ya. Ndị ya ga-anọkwa na-enweghị nsogbu, nʼihi na ịdị ukwuu ya ga-eru na nsọtụ niile nke ụwa.
5 And this [One] has been peace. Asshur, when he comes into our land, And when he treads in our palaces, We have raised against him seven shepherds, And eight anointed of man.
Ọ ga-abụkwa udo anyị. Mgbe ndị Asịrịa ga-abata nʼala anyị nʼike, sikwa nʼebe niile e wusiri ike nke anyị na-agafe, anyị ga-ahọpụta ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ asaa, ọ bụladị ndịisi asatọ.
6 And they have afflicted the land of Asshur with the sword, And the land of Nimrod at its openings, And He has delivered from Asshur when he comes into our land, And when he treads in our borders.
Onye ga-eji mma agha chịa ala Asịrịa, jirikwa mma agha a mịpụtara amịpụta chịa ala Nimrọd. Ọ ga-anapụta anyị site nʼaka ndị Asịrịa ahụ, mgbe ha ga-eji ike bata nʼala anyị, ma zọrọkwa ije gafee oke ala anyị.
7 And the remnant of Jacob has been in the midst of many peoples, As dew from YHWH—as showers on the herb, That does not wait for man, nor stays for the sons of men.
Mgbe ahụ, ndị fọdụrụ afọdụ nke Jekọb ga-adị nʼetiti ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ, dịka igirigi si nʼebe Onyenwe anyị nọ abịa, maọbụ dịka mmiri ozuzo ntakịrị na-ezokwasị ahịhịa, nke na-adịghị ele anya mmadụ maọbụ chere ụmụ mmadụ.
8 Indeed, the remnant of Jacob has been among nations, In the midst of many peoples, As a lion among beasts of a forest, As a young lion among ranks of a flock, Which if it has passed through, Has both trodden down and has torn, And there is no deliverer.
Ndị fọdụrụ afọdụ nke Jekọb ga-adịkwa nʼetiti ọtụtụ ndị mmadụ dị ka ọdụm nʼetiti anụ ọhịa niile dị iche iche, e, dịka nwa ọdụm nʼetiti igwe atụrụ, nke na-azọda na-adọkasị mgbe ọ na-agabiga, ma o nweghị onye ga-anapụta ya.
9 High is your hand above your adversaries, And all your enemies are cut off.
Aka gị ga-adị elu na mmeri nke ndị iro ya, a ghakwaghị ịla ndị iro gị niile nʼiyi.
10 “And it has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of YHWH, “I have cut off your horses from your midst, And I have destroyed your chariots,
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ kwa,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri, “Aga m ala ịnyịnya unu nʼiyi site nʼetiti unu, kụjisiekwa ụgbọala unu niile.
11 And I have cut off the cities of your land, And I have thrown down all your fortresses,
Aga m ala obodo niile dị nʼala unu nʼiyi, dọdasịakwa ebe unu niile e wusiri ike.
12 And have cut off sorcerers out of your hand, And observers of clouds—you have none.
Aga m ala mgbaasị unu nʼiyi, unu agaghị enwekwa ndị na-ajụ mmụọ ọjọọ ase.
13 And I have cut off your carved images, And your standing-pillars out of your midst, And you do not bow yourself anymore To the work of your hands.
Aga m ala arụsị a pịrị apị unu niile nʼiyi, ya na nkume nsọ ahụ niile dị nʼetiti unu. Unu agakwaghị akpọ isiala nye ihe unu ji aka unu kpụọ.
14 And I have plucked up your Asherim out of your midst, And I have destroyed your enemies.
Aga m ehopu ogidi arụsị niile nke dị nʼetiti unu, mgbe m ga-akụdasị obodo unu niile
15 And I have done vengeance in anger and in fury, With the nations who have not listened!”
Aga m esite nʼoke iwe m na ọnụma m bọọrọ onwe m ọbọ nʼahụ mba niile ndị ahụ jụrụ irubere m isi.”
