Micah 5
1 Now you shall gather yourself in troops, daughter of troops. He has laid siege against us. They will strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
Nou menm, moun lavil Jerizalèm, sanble moun nou yo! Mete yon lame sou pye! Men yo sènen lavil la toupatou. Y'ap leve men yo sou chèf pèp Izrayèl la. Y'ap ba li baton, y'ap souflete l'.
2 But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, being small among the clans of Judah, out of you one will come forth to me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth are from of old, from everlasting.
Seyè a di ankò: Men ou menm, lavil Betleyèm, Efrata, ou se yonn nan pi piti nan tout lavil peyi Jida yo, se vre! Men, se nan mitan ou m'ap fè soti pou mwen yon chèf pou pèp Izrayèl la, yon chèf k'ap soti nan yon fanmi ki la depi lontan lontan.
3 Therefore he will abandon them until the time that she who is in labor gives birth. Then the rest of his brothers will return to the children of Israel.
Se konsa, Seyè a ap lage pèp li a nan men lènmi li yo jouk lè fi ki pou fè pitit la va gen yon pitit gason. Lè sa a, rès pèp Izrayèl yo te depòte a va tounen pou mete tèt ansanm ak pèp la.
4 He shall stand, and shall shepherd in the strength of the LORD, in the majesty of the name of the LORD his God: and they will live, for then he will be great to the farthest parts of the earth.
Lè chèf sa a va vini, l'a gouvènen pèp li a avèk fòs Seyè a ap ba li a, avèk pouvwa k'ap mande respè paske l'ap gouvènen nan non Seyè a, Bondye li a. Pèp la va viv ak kè poze, paske moun toupatou sou latè va rekonèt jan li gen pouvwa.
5 He will be our peace when Assyria invades our land, and when he marches through our fortresses, then we will raise against him seven shepherds, and eight leaders of men.
L'a fè tout moun viv byen yonn ak lòt. Lè moun peyi Lasiri yo va anvayi peyi nou an, lè y'a pwonmennen mache nan tout peyi a, n'a voye sèt chèf, n'a voye wit menm al konbat yo.
6 They will rule the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with the drawn sword. He will deliver us from the Assyrian, when he invades our land, and when he marches within our border.
Y'a goumen, y'a pran peyi moun Lasiri yo nan men yo. Avèk nepe yo, y'a pran peyi Nenmwòd la nan men li. Y'a delivre nou anba men moun Lasiri yo, lè y'a anvayi peyi a, lè y'a antre sou fwontyè nou yo.
7 The remnant of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples, like dew from the LORD, like showers on the grass, that do not wait for man, nor wait for the sons of men.
Lè sa a, rès moun ki vivan toujou nan pèp la va tankou lawouze Bondye voye. Y'a viv nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Y'a tankou lapli k'ap tonbe sou jaden k'ap pouse, paske yo pa mete espwa yo nan moun men nan Bondye.
8 The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, in the midst of many peoples, like a lion among the animals of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep; who, if he goes through, treads down and tears in pieces, and there is no one to deliver.
Rès moun pèp Izrayèl yo va viv nan mitan lòt nasyon yo, nan mitan anpil lòt nasyon. Y'a tankou yon lyon nan mitan bèt nan bwa, osinon yon jenn ti lyon nan mitan bann mouton. Y'ap pase nan mitan lòt nasyon yo. Y'ap kraze yo anba pye yo, y'ap dechikete yo. Pesonn p'ap ka delivre moun anba men yo.
9 Let your hand be lifted up above your adversaries, and let all of your enemies be cut off.
Izrayèl va leve kont lènmi li yo, l'a disparèt yo nèt.
10 "It will happen in that day," says the LORD, "That I will cut off your horses out of the midst of you, and will destroy your chariots.
Seyè a di ankò: Jou sa a, m'ap touye tout chwal batay nou yo. M'a detwi tout cha nou yo.
11 I will cut off the cities of your land, and will tear down all your strongholds.
M'ap detwi tout lavil nou bati nan peyi a, m'ap kraze tout fò ak tout ranpa nou yo.
12 I will destroy witchcraft from your hand; and you shall have no soothsayers.
M'a wete tout wanga nan peyi a. Nou p'ap jwenn moun ki pou bat kat pou nou ankò.
13 I will cut off your engraved images and your pillars out of your midst; and you shall no more worship the work of your hands.
M'ap detwi tout estati ak tout moniman nou te moute pou zidòl yo. Nou p'ap gen lide adore bagay nou fè ak men nou ankò.
14 I will uproot your Asherim out of your midst; and I will destroy your cities.
M'ap derasinen tout pyebwa repozwa nan peyi a. M'ap detwi tout lavil nou yo.
15 I will execute vengeance in anger, and wrath on the nations that did not listen."
Lè sa a, m'ap fache, m'ap fè gwo kòlè, m'ap pran revanj mwen sou tout nasyon ki pa t' obeyi m' yo.
