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?
Nígbà náà, ni mo wí pé, “Ẹ gbọ́, ẹ̀yin olórí Jakọbu, ẹ̀yin alákòóso ilé Israẹli. Ǹjẹ́ ẹ̀yin kò ha ni í gba òdodo bí.
2 You who hate the good, and love the evil; who tear off their skin, and their flesh from off their bones;
Ẹ̀yin tí ó kórìíra ìre, tí ẹ sì fẹ́ràn ibi; ẹ̀yin tí ẹ fa awọ ẹran-ara àwọn ènìyàn mi ya kúrò lára wọn àti ẹran-ara wọn kúrò ní egungun wọn;
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.
àwọn tí ó jẹ ẹran-ara àwọn ènìyàn mi, wọn sì bọ́ awọ ara wọn kúrò lára wọn. Wọ́n sì fọ́ egungun wọn sí wẹ́wẹ́; wọn sì gé e sí wẹ́wẹ́ bí ẹran inú ìkòkò, bí ẹran inú agbada?”
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."
Nígbà náà ni wọn yóò kígbe sí Olúwa, ṣùgbọ́n òun kì yóò dá wọn lóhùn. Ní àkókò náà ni òun yóò fi ojú rẹ̀ pamọ́ kúrò lọ́dọ̀ wọn, nítorí ibi tí wọ́n ti ṣe.
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:
Báyìí ni Olúwa wí, “Ní ti àwọn Wòlíì tí ń ṣi àwọn ènìyàn mi lọ́nà, tí ẹnìkan bá fún wọn ní oúnjẹ, wọn yóò kéde àlàáfíà; ṣùgbọ́n tí kò bá fi nǹkan sí wọn ní ẹnu, wọn yóò múra ogun sí i.
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.
Nítorí náà òru yóò wá sórí yín, tí ẹ̀yin kì yóò sì rí ìran kankan, òkùnkùn yóò sì kùn fún yín, tí ẹ̀yin kì yóò sì lè sọtẹ́lẹ̀. Oòrùn yóò sì wọ lórí àwọn wòlíì ọjọ́ yóò sì ṣókùnkùn lórí wọn.
7 The seers shall be disappointed, and the diviners confounded. Yes, they shall all cover their lips; for there is no answer from God."
Ojú yóò sì ti àwọn wòlíì àwọn alásọtẹ́lẹ̀ pẹ̀lú yóò sì gba ìtìjú. Gbogbo wọn ni yóò bo ojú wọn, nítorí kò sí ìdáhùn láti ọ̀dọ̀ Ọlọ́run.”
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.
Ṣùgbọ́n ní tèmi, èmi kún fún agbára pẹ̀lú ẹ̀mí Olúwa, láti sọ ìré-òfin-kọjá Jakọbu fún un, àti láti sọ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ Israẹli fún un.
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.
Gbọ́ ẹ̀yin olórí ilé Jakọbu, àti ẹ̀yin alákòóso ilé Israẹli, tí ó kórìíra òdodo tí ó sì yí òtítọ́ padà;
10 They build up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
tí ó kọ́ Sioni pẹ̀lú ìtàjẹ̀ sílẹ̀, àti Jerusalẹmu pẹ̀lú ìwà búburú.
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."
Àwọn olórí rẹ̀ ń ṣe ìdájọ́ nítorí àbẹ̀tẹ́lẹ̀, àwọn àlùfáà rẹ̀ sì ń kọ́ni nítorí owó ọ̀yà àwọn wòlíì rẹ̀ pẹ̀lú sì ń sọtẹ́lẹ̀ nítorí owó. Síbẹ̀, wọn gbẹ́kẹ̀lé Olúwa, wọ́n sì wí pé, “Nítòótọ́, Olúwa wà pẹ̀lú wa! Ibi kan kì yóò bá wa.”
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.
Nítorí náà, nítorí tiyín, ni a ó ṣe ro Sioni bí oko, Jerusalẹmu yóò sì di ebè àti òkè tẹmpili bí i ibi gíga igbó.
