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.
Agora ajunta-te com esquadrões, ó filha de esquadrões; pôr-se-ha cerco sobre nós: ferirão com a vara no queixo ao juiz de Israel.
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.”
E tu, Beth-lehem Ephrata, ainda que és pequena entre os milhares de Judah, de ti me sairá o que será Senhor em Israel, e cujas saidas são desde os tempos antigos, desde os dias da eternidade.
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.
Portanto os entregará até ao tempo em que a que está de parto tiver parido: então o resto de seus irmãos voltará com os filhos de Israel.
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.
E elle estará em pé, e apascentará ao povo na força do Senhor, na excellencia do nome do Senhor seu Deus: e elles permanecerão, porque agora será engrandecido até aos fins da terra.
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.
E este será a paz: quando a Assyria vier á nossa terra, e quando passar os nossos palacios, levantaremos contra elle sete pastores e oito principes d'entre os homens.
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.
Esses consumirão a terra da Assyria á espada, e a terra de Nimrod nas suas entradas. Assim nos livrará da Assyria, quando vier á nossa terra, e quando calcar os nossos termos.
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.
E estará o resto de Jacob no meio de muitos povos, como orvalho do Senhor, como uns choviscos sobre a terra, que não espera pelo homem, nem aguarda a filhos de homens.
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.
E o resto de Jacob estará entre as nações, no meio de muitos povos, como um leão entre os animaes do bosque, como um leãosinho entre os rebanhos de ovelhas, o qual, quando passar, pizará e despedaçará, sem que haja quem as livre.
9 High is your hand above your adversaries, And all your enemies are cut off.
A tua mão se exaltará sobre os seus adversarios; e todos os teus inimigos serão exterminados.
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,
E succederá n'aquelle dia, diz o Senhor, que eu exterminarei do meio de ti os teus cavallos, e destruirei os teus carros;
11 And I have cut off the cities of your land, And I have thrown down all your fortresses,
E destruirei as cidades da tua terra, e derribarei todas as tuas fortalezas;
12 And have cut off sorcerers out of your hand, And observers of clouds—you have none.
E exterminarei as feitiçarias da tua mão: e não terás agoureiros;
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.
E exterminarei do meio de ti as tuas imagens de esculptura e as tuas estatuas; e tu não te inclinarás mais diante da obra das tuas mãos.
14 And I have plucked up your Asherim out of your midst, And I have destroyed your enemies.
E arrancarei os teus bosques do meio de ti; e destruirei as tuas cidades.
15 And I have done vengeance in anger and in fury, With the nations who have not listened!”
E com ira e com furor farei vingança das nações que não ouvem.
