< Micah 7 >

1 Misery is mine. Indeed, I am like one who gathers the summer fruits, as gleanings of the vineyard: There is no cluster of grapes to eat. My soul desires to eat the early fig.
Lozako! fa efa tonga toy ny fiotazam-boankazo aho Sy toy ny fitsimponam-boaloboka, Tsy misy salohy hohanina, Na aviavy mialin-taona, izay irin’ ny fanahiko,
2 The faithful have vanished from the earth, and there is no one upright among men. They all lie in wait for blood; every man hunts his brother with a net.
Lany tsy misy amin’ ny tany intsony ny tsara fanahy; Eny, tsy misy olo-marina ao amin’ ny olombelona; Samy manotrika handatsa-drà avokoa izy, Eny, mihaza ny rahalahiny amin’ ny harato izy rehetra.
3 Their hands are on that which is evil to do it diligently. The ruler and judge ask for a bribe; and the powerful man dictates the evil desire of his soul. Thus they conspire together.
Vonona hanao ratsy ny tànany; Mila ny mpanapaka, Azon-kolikoly ny mpitsara, Ary ny lehibe milaza ny fitsiriritan’ ny fanahiny, Koa izany no entiny mandrarirary azy.
4 The best of them is like a brier. The most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. The day of your watchmen, even your visitation, has come; now is the time of their confusion.
Na dia ny tsara indrindra ao aminy aza dia toy ny roy, Ary na dia ny mahitsy indrindra ao aminy aza dia ratsy noho ny fefy tsilo; Avy ny andron’ ny tilinao, izay hamaliana anao; Amin’ izany dia vao ho very hevitra ianao.
5 Do not trust in a neighbor. Do not put confidence in a friend. With the woman lying in your embrace, be careful of the words of your mouth.
Aza matoky namana ianareo, Aza mahazo am-po izay sakaiza mahazatra; Fa ambeno ny varavaran’ ny vavanao na dia amin’ izay andefimandrinao aza.
6 For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law; a man's enemies are the men of his own house.
Fa ny zanakalahy manamavo ny rainy, Ny zanakavavy mitsangan-kanohitra ny reniny, Ary ny vinantovavy hanohitra ny rafozani-vavy; Ary ny ankohonan’ ny olona ihany no fahavalony.
7 But as for me, I will look to the LORD. I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me.
Fa izaho kosa dia hanandrandra an’ i Jehovah, Eny, hiandry an’ Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy aho; Andriamanitro no hihaino ahy.
8 Do not rejoice against me, my enemy. When I fall, I will arise. When I sit in darkness, the LORD will be a light to me.
Aza mifaly ahy, ry fahavaloko, Fa na dia lavo aza aho, mbola hiarina ihany; Raha mitoetra ao amin’ ny maizina aho, Dia Jehovah no fahazavana ho ahy.
9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he pleads my case, and executes judgment for me. He will bring me forth to the light. I will see his righteousness.
Ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah dia hiaretako ihany, Fa efa nanota taminy aho, Ambara-pandahany ny teniko Sy hanomezany rariny ho ahy; Hamoaka ahy ho amin’ ny mazava Izy, Ka ho faly aho mahita ny fahamarinany.
10 Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover her who said to me, where is the LORD your God? Then my enemy will see me and will cover her shame. Now she will be trodden down like the mire of the streets.
Dia hahita izany ilay fahavaloko ka hosaronan-kenatra, Dia ilay nanao tamiko hoe: Aiza Izay Jehovah Andriamanitrao? Ho faly mahita azy ny masoko; Ankehitriny dia ho fanitsakitsaka toy ny fotaka eny an-dalambe izy.
11 A day to build your walls—In that day, he will extend your boundary.
He ny andro hananganana ny mandanao! Amin’ izany andro izany dia hitarina ny faritra.
12 In that day they will come to you from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and mountain to mountain.
Amin’ izany andro izany koa dia hanatona anao ny olona Avy any Asyria sy avy any amin’ ny tanànan’ i Egypta, Eny, hatrany Egypta ka hatramin’ ny Ony, Ary hatramin’ ny ranomasina ka hatramin’ ny ranomasina, Ary hatramin’ ny tendrombohitra ka hatramin’ ny tendrombohitra.
13 Yet the land will be desolate because of those who dwell in it, for the fruit of their doings.
Nefa ho lao ny tany noho ny amin’ ny mponina eo aminy, Dia noho ny vokatry ny asany.
14 Shepherd your people with your staff, the flock of your heritage, who dwell by themselves in a forest, in the midst of fertile pasture land, let them feed; in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
Ny tehinao no ento miandry ny olonao, Dia ny ondry lovanao, Izay monina mitokana, dia any an’ ala ao an-tampon’ i Karmela; Aoka handrasana any Basana sy Gileada ireny Toy ny tamin’ ny andro taloha ela.
15 "As in the days of your coming forth out of the land of Egypt, I will show them marvelous things."
Toy ny tamin’ ny andro nivoahanao avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta No hanehoako azy zava-mahagaga.
16 The nations will see and be ashamed of all their might. They will lay their hand on their mouth. Their ears will be deaf.
Hahita izany ny jentilisa, Ka hahamenatra azy ny heriny rehetra; Hitampim-bava izy, Ho tonga marenina ny sofiny.
17 They will lick the dust like a serpent. Like crawling creatures of the earth they shall come trembling out of their dens. They will come with fear to the LORD our God, and will be afraid because of you.
Hilelaka ny vovoka toy ny menarana izy; Hiala amin-kovitra avy ao amin’ ny fiarovany mafy tahaka ny biby mikisaka amin’ ny tany izy; Jehovah Andriamanitsika dia hohatoniny amin-kovitra, Eny, hatahotra Anao izy.
18 Who is a God like you, who pardons iniquity, and passes over the disobedience of the remnant of his heritage? He doesn't retain his anger forever, because he delights in loving kindness.
Iza no Andriamanitra tahaka Anao, Izay mamela heloka Sady mandalo ny fahadisoan’ ny sisa amin’ ny lovany? Tsy mitana ny fahatezerany ho mandrakizay Izy, Fa tia famindram-po.
19 He will again have compassion on us. He will tread our iniquities under foot; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Hamindra fo amintsika indray Izy Ka hanitsakitsaka ny fahotantsika, Eny, harianao ho any amin’ ny ranomasina lalina ny fahotany rehetra.
20 You will give truth to Jacob, and mercy to Abraham, as you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
Hanefa fahamarinana ho an’ i Jakoba Hianao Sy famindram-po ho an’ i Abrahama, Dia ilay nianiananao tamin’ ny razanay hatramin’ ny andro taloha ela.
