< Micah 3 >
1 I said, "Please listen, you heads of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel: Isn't it for you to know justice?
Ergasii ani akkanan jedhe; “Isin hooggantoonni Yaaqoob, bulchitoonni mana Israaʼel mee dhaggeeffadhaa. Isin murtii qajeelaa beekuu hin qabdanii?
2 You who hate the good, and love the evil; who tear off their skin, and their flesh from off their bones;
Isin warri waan gaarii jibbitanii waan hamaa jaallattan, warri saba koo irraa gogaa, lafee isaanii irraa immoo foon baaftan,
3 who also eat the flesh of my people, and flay their skin from off them, and break their bones, and chop them in pieces, as for the pot, and as flesh within the caldron.
warri foon saba koo nyaattan, kanneen gogaa isaanii irraa qunciftanii lafee isaanii caccabsitan, isin warri akka foon eeleetti waadamuutii fi okkoteetti affeelamuu isaan ciccirtan murtii qajeelaa beekuu hin qabdanii?”
4 Then they will cry to the LORD, but he will not answer them. Yes, he will hide his face from them at that time, because they made their deeds evil."
Ergasii isaan Waaqayyotti iyyatu; inni garuu deebii hin kennuuf. Yeroo sanatti inni sababii cubbuu isaan hojjetaniitiif fuula isaa isaan duraa ni dhokfata.
5 Thus says the LORD concerning the prophets who lead my people astray; for those who feed their teeth, they proclaim, "Peace." and whoever doesn't provide for their mouths, they prepare war against him:
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Waaʼee raajota saba koo karaa irraa jalʼisanii, yoo namni tokko nyaata kenneef isaan ‘Nagaa’ labsu; yoo inni akkas gochuu baate immoo lola isatti kaasuuf qophaaʼu.
6 "Therefore night is over you, with no vision, and it is dark to you, that you may not divine; and the sun will go down on the prophets, and the day will be black over them.
Kanaafuu utuu isin mulʼata hin argin halkan, utuu isin hooda hin dubbatin immoo dukkanni isinitti dhufa. Aduun raajotatti dhiiti; guyyaanis isaanitti dukkanaaʼa.
7 The seers shall be disappointed, and the diviners confounded. Yes, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer from God."
Ilaaltonni ni qaanaʼu; warri hooda dubbatanis ni salphifamu. Sababii deebiin tokko iyyuu Waaqa biraa hin dhufneef isaan hundi fuula haguuggatu.”
8 But as for me, I am full of power by the Spirit of the LORD, and of judgment, and of might, to declare to Jacob his disobedience, and to Israel his sin.
Ani garuu Yaaqoobitti balleessaa isaa, Israaʼelittis cubbuu isaa himuuf humnaan guutameera; Hafuura Waaqayyootiin murtii qajeelaa fi jabinaan guutameera.
9 Please listen to this, you heads of the house of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel, who abhor justice, and pervert all equity.
Isin hooggantoonni mana Yaaqoob bulchitoonni mana Israaʼel warri murtii qajeelaa tuffattanii waan sirrii taʼe hunda jalʼiftan waan kana dhagaʼaa;
10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
warri dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan Xiyoonin, hamminaan immoo Yerusaalemin ijaartan waan kana dhagaʼaa.
11 Her leaders judge for bribes, and her priests teach for a price, and her prophets of it tell fortunes for money: yet they lean on the LORD, and say, "Isn't the LORD in the midst of us? No disaster will come on us."
Hooggantoonni ishee mattaʼaa fudhatanii murtii kennu; luboonni ishee gatiidhaan barsiisu; raajonni ishees maallaqa fudhatanii hooda dubbatu. Taʼus isaan Waaqayyotti irkatanii, “Waaqayyo gidduu keenya jira mitii? Balaan tokko iyyuu nutti hin dhufu” jedhu.
12 Therefore Zion for your sake will be plowed like a field, and Jerusalem will become heaps of rubble, and the mountain of the temple like the high places of a forest.
Kanaafuu sababii keessaniif, Xiyoon akkuma lafa qotiisaatti qotamti; Yerusaalemis tuullaa waan diigamee taati; gaarri mana qulqullummaas tabba daggalaan liqimfame taʼa.
