Micah 2
1 Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds. When the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
Nnome nka wɔn a wɔfa amumuyɛ ho adwene, wɔn a wɔbɔ ɛpɔ bɔne wɔ wɔn mpa so! Wɔsɔre anɔpa kɔdi dwuma no ɛfiri sɛ wɔwɔ tumi sɛ wɔyɛ.
2 They covet fields, and seize them; and houses, and take them away: and they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
Wɔn ani bere mfuo na wɔgye. Na afie nso wɔfa. Wɔde nyansa korɔno gye nkurɔfoɔ afie, na ayɔnkofoɔ agyapadeɛ nso wɔgye.
3 Therefore thus says Jehovah: "Look, I am planning against these people a disaster, from which you will not remove your necks, neither will you walk haughtily; for it is an evil time.
Enti, sɛdeɛ Awurade seɛ nie, “Meredwene amanehunu a ɛtia saa nkurɔfoɔ yi ho na worentumi nnyi wo ho mfiri mu. Worentumi nnante ahantan so bio, ɛfiri sɛ ɛbɛyɛ ɛberɛ bɔne.
4 In that day they will take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying, 'We are utterly ruined. My people's possession is divided up. Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors.'"
Saa ɛda no, nnipa bɛsere mo. Wɔde saa awerɛhoɔ dwom yi bɛdi mo ho fɛ sɛ: ‘wɔasɛe yɛn koraa; wɔakyekyɛ me nkurɔfoɔ ahodeɛ mu. Ɔgye firi me nsa mu! Na ɔde yɛn mfuo ma akɔnkɔnsafoɔ.’”
5 Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the assembly of Jehovah.
Enti morennya obi wɔ Awurade asafo mu a ɔde ntontobɔ bɛkyɛ asase no.
6 "Do not prophesy." They prophesy. "Do not prophesy about these things. Disgrace won't overtake us."
“Monnhyɛ nkɔm,” saa na wɔn nkɔmhyɛfoɔ no ka. “Monnhyɛ saa nneɛma yi ho nkɔm; animguaseɛ rento yɛn.”
7 Shall it be said, O house of Jacob: "Is the Spirit of Jehovah angry? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?"
Ao, Yakob efie, mma monnka nsɛm a ɛte saa. Awurade Honhom nni boasetɔ? Ɔyɛ nneɛma a ɛte sei anaa? “Ne nsɛm nyɛ deɛ nʼakwan tene no yie anaa?
8 But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.
Akyire no, me nkurɔfoɔ asɔre te sɛ asraafoɔ. Moworɔ ntadeɛ pa firi wɔn a wɔretwam a wɔnni adwemmɔne biara ho, ma wɔyɛ te sɛ asraafoɔ a wɔfiri akono.
9 You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you take away my blessing forever.
Mopam mmaa a wɔwɔ me nkurɔfoɔ mu firi wɔn afie fɛfɛ mu. Mogye me nhyira firi wɔn mma nsam afebɔɔ.
10 Arise, and depart. For this is not your resting place, because of uncleanness that destroys, even with a grievous destruction.
Sɔre, firi ha kɔ! Ɛha nyɛ beaeɛ a wɔhome, ɛfiri sɛ ɛho agu fi, Wɔasɛe no, na ɛrenyɛ yie bio.
11 If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies: "I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink;" he would be the prophet of this people.
Sɛ ɔtorofoɔ ne ɔdaadaafoɔ ba bɛka sɛ, ‘Mɛhyɛ nkɔm ama moanya nsã bebree a’ ɔbɛyɛ odiyifoɔ a saa nkurɔfoɔ yi pɛ.
12 I will surely assemble, Jacob, all of you; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the midst of their pasture; they will swarm with people.
“Mɛboaboa mo nyinaa ano Ao, Yakob; nokorɛm mɛka Israel nkaeɛfoɔ no nyinaa abɔ mu. Mɛka wɔn abɔ mu te sɛ nnwan a wɔgu nnwammuo mu, te sɛ nnwankuo a wɔwɔ adidibea; nnipa bɛhyɛ beaeɛ ho manyamanya.
13 The breaker goes up before them. They break through the gate, and go out. And their king passes on before them, with Jehovah at their head.
Deɛ ɔbɔ ɛkwan no bɛdi wɔn anim wɔbɛbu apono no na wɔafiri akɔ. Wɔn ɔhene bɛsene adi wɔn anim, Awurade bɛyɛ wɔn ti.”
