Micah 2
1 Alas for them who devise iniquity and work wickedness upon their beds, —in the light of the morning, they will execute it, for it is in the power of their hand.
| وَيْلٌ لِلْمُتَآمِرِينَ بِالسُّوءِ، الَّذِينَ يَحُوكُونَ الشَّرَّ وَهُمْ فِي مَضَاجِعِهِمْ، الَّذِينَ يُنَفِّذُونَ عِنْدَ طُلُوعِ الصَّبَاحِ مَا خَطَّطُوا لَهُ، لأَنَّ ذَلِكَ فِي مُتَنَاوَلِ قُدْرَتِهِمْ. | ١ |
2 Thus do they covet fields and seize them, and houses and take them away, —and so they oppress the master and his household, the man and his inheritance.
| يَشْتَهُونَ حُقُولاً وَيَغْتَصِبُونَهَا، وَبُيُوتاً فَيَسْتَوْلُونَ عَلَيْهَا. يَجُورُونَ عَلَى الرَّجُلِ وَعَلَى بَيْتِهِ وَالإِنْسَانِ وَمِيرَاثِهِ. | ٢ |
3 Therefore, —Thus, saith Yahweh, Behold me! devising, against this family, a calamity, —from which ye shall not remove your neck, neither shall ye walk loftily, for, a time of calamity, shall it be.
| لِهَذَا، هَكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. هَا أَنَا أُدَبِّرُ شَرّاً لِهَذَا الشَّعْبِ تَعْجَزُونَ عَنْ فَكِّ رِقَابِكُمْ مِنْهُ، وَلَنْ تَمْشُوا بَعْدُ مُتَشَامِخِينَ لأَنَّ الزَّمَنَ يَكُونُ زَمَنَ سُوءٍ. | ٣ |
4 In that day, shall one take up against you a by-word, and lament a lamentable lamentation, saying—we are made, utterly desolate, the portion of my people, he passeth to others, —How doth he set me aside! To an apostate, our fields, doth he apportion.
| فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ يَسْخَرُ أَعْدَاؤُكُمْ مِنْكُمْ، وَتَنُوحُونَ بِمِثْلِ هَذَا الرِّثَاءِ: «قَدْ تَمَّ تَدْمِيرُنَا وَاسْتَبْدَلَ الرَّبُّ نَصِيبَ شَعْبِهِ. كَيْفَ أَخَذَهُ مِنَّا وَقَسَمَ حُقُولَنَا بَيْنَ آسِرِينَا؟» | ٤ |
5 Therefore, shalt thou have none to throw a measuring-line by lot, —in the convocation of Yahweh.
| لِهَذَا لَنْ يُوْجَدَ بَيْنَ جَمَاعَةِ الرَّبِّ مَنْ يُلْقِي الْقُرْعَةَ لِيَقْسِمَ الأَرْضَ. | ٥ |
6 Do not sputter—So they sputter! They must not sputter as to these things, Must he not put away reproaches?
| يَقُولُ الشَّعْبُ لِلأَنْبِياءِ: لَا تَتَنَبَّأُوا بِمِثْلِ هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ، لأَنَّ الْعَارَ لَنْ يَلْحَقَ بِنَا. | ٦ |
7 O thou who art said to be the house of Jacob, Is the spirit of Yahweh, impatient? Or are, these, his doings? Are not, his words, pleasant to him who is upright in his walk?
| آهِ يَا بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ؟ هَلْ نَفَدَ صَبْرُ رُوحِ الرَّبِّ؟ أَهَذِهِ الأَفْعَالُ صَدَرَتْ عَنْهُ؟ أَلَيْسَتْ كَلِمَاتِي صَالِحَةً لِلسَّالِكِينَ بِالاسْتِقَامَةِ؟ | ٧ |
8 But, against my people, as an enemy, he setteth himself, from off the robe, they tear away, the cloak, —from such as are passing by with confidence, as men averse from war.
| بِالأَمْسِ هَبَّ شَعْبِي كَعَدُوٍّ! تَسْلُبُونَ رِدَاءَ الْعَابِرِينَ بِأَمْنٍ وَالْعَائِدِينَ مِنَ القِتَالِ. | ٨ |
9 The wives of my people, ye do even drive out, each from the house of her darlings, —from over her children, ye do take away mine ornament, as long as life shall last.
| تَطْرُدُونَ أَرَامِلَ شَعْبِي مِنْ بُيُوتِهِنَّ، وَتُجَرِّدُونَ أَطْفَالَ كُلٍّ مِنْهُنَّ مِنْ عَطَايَايَ إِلَى الأَبَدِ. | ٩ |
10 Arise ye and depart, for, this, is not the place of rest, —Because it is defiled, it shall make desolate with a desolation that is ruthless.
| هُبُّوا وَاذْهَبُوا، فَهَذَا لَيْسَ مَكَانَ رَاحَتِكُمْ، لأَنَّهُ أَصْبَحَ نَجِساً، مُدَمَّراً وَلا يُمْكِنُ تَرْمِيمُهُ. | ١٠ |
11 If there be a man, who goeth after wind, and, falsehood, hath woven, [saying] —I will discourse to thee, concerning wine and strong drink, then shall he become a fountain of discourse unto this people.
| إِنْ جَالَ رَجُلٌ يَتَنَبَّأُ بَيْنَكُمْ بِالْكَذِبِ وَبِاللَّغْوِ الْبَاطِلِ قَائِلاً: إِنَّنِي أَتَنَبَّأُ لَكُمْ بِالْخَمْرِ الْوَفِيرِ وَالْمُسْكِرِ، فَإِنَّهُ يُصْبِحُ نَبِيَّ هَذَا الشَّعْبِ. | ١١ |
12 I will, surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee, I will, surely gather, the remnant of Israel, at once, will I make them like sheep in distress, —Like a flock in the midst of its pasture, shall they hum with men,
| سَأَجْمَعُ شَتَاتَكَ جَمِيعاً يَا يَعْقُوبُ، وَأَجْمَعُ بَقِيَّةَ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَأَضُمُّهُمْ مَعاً كَقَطِيعِ غَنَمٍ فِي حَظِيرَةٍ، مِثْلَ قَطِيعٍ مُحْتَشِدٍ فِي مَرْعىً، فَتَرْتَفِعُ جَلَبَةُ جُمْهُورِهِمْ. | ١٢ |
13 One making a breach, hath gone up, before them, they have broken in, and passed through, and, by the gate, have departed, —and their king, hath passed through, before them, with, Yahweh, at their head!
| وَالَّذِي يَفْتَحُ الثُّغْرَةَ يَتَقَدَّمُهُمْ فَيَقْتَحِمُونَ وَيَعْبُرُونَ الْبَابَ خَارِجاً، وَفِي طَلِيعَتِهِمْ يَسِيرُ مَلِكُهُمْ وَالرَّبُّ فِي مُقَدِّمَتِهِمْ. | ١٣ |
