< Micah 7 >

1 Alas for me! for I am become as gatherings of summer fruit, as gleaning-grapes in harvest, there is no cluster to eat, the first ripe fruit, my soul, craved.
Wanginla finsrak luk! Nga oana sie mwet masrinsral su tia ku in konauk fokinsak ulun sak uh, ac wangin pac grape ke oa in grape uh. Grape nukewa ac fig emwem nukewa kinkinla tari.
2 Perished is the man of lovingkindness out of the earth, and, upright among men, is there none, —they all, for bloodshed, lie in wait. Every man—for his brother, do they hunt as for one devoted to destruction.
Wanginna sie mwet suwohs lula fin acn uh, wangin sie su inse pwaye nu sin God. Mwet nukewa suk pacl fal in orek akmas. Elos suk na in oru koluk nu sin mwet Israel wialos.
3 Of wickedness with both hands to make sure, the ruler, doth make demand—and the judge—for a recompense, —and, as for the great man, he, is putting into words the desire of his soul, So have they woven the net!
Elos nukewa mwet na pisrla in oru ma koluk. Mwet fulat ac mwet nununku soano in oasr mol nu selos meet liki elos fah oru ma kunalos. Mwet pweyen uh elos fahk ma elos kena kac, na mwet kol ingan insese nu kac ac tukeni orek pwapa lukma.
4 The best of them, is as a sharp briar, and, the most upright, worse than a thorn hedge, The day of thy watchmen—of thy visitation, hath come, Now, shall be their confusion!
Finne mwet su srulun wo ac lulalfongiyuk inmasrlolos, a elos mwet lusrongten oana mah uh. Len sac summa tari ke God El ac kalyei mwet uh, oana ke El tuh sensenkakinulos meet ke pusren mwet palu. Inge elos arulana fohsak.
5 Do not trust in a friend, do not put confidence in an associate, —from her that lieth in thy bosom, keep thou the doors of thy mouth;
Nimet lulalfongi mwet tulan lom ku mwet kawuk lom. Liyaung ma kom fahk, finne nu sin mutan kiom.
6 For, the son, treateth as foolish, the father, and, the daughter, riseth up against, her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, —The foes of a man, are the men of his own house.
In pacl inge tulik mukul nutin papa uh oru papa uh oana mwet lalfon, ac tulik mutan uh supangkas nu sin nina kialos uh, ac mutan fusr akukuin nu sin nina talupalos. Mwet lokoalok lun sie mwet pa mwet na in sou lal sifacna.
7 But, I, for Yahweh, will watch, I will wait for the God of my salvation, —My God, will hear me.
Tusruktu nga fah tawi na LEUM GOD; nga fah tupan God, mweyen nga lulalfongi lah El ac moliyula. God luk El fah porongeyu.
8 Do not rejoice, O mine enemy, against me, Though I fall, I shall rise again! Though I sit in darkness, Yahweh, is a light to me.
Wangin sripa mwet lokoalok lasr in niankusri kut. Kut ne ikori, tuh kut ac fah sifilpa tuyak. Kut ne oasr in lohsr in pacl inge, tuh LEUM GOD El kalem lasr.
9 The indignation of Yahweh, will I bear, for I have sinned against him, —until he take up my controversy, then will he do me justice, he will bring me forth to the light, I shall behold his righteousness.
Kut tuh oru ma Koluk lain LEUM GOD, na pa inge kut enenu in muteng kasrkusrak lal ke kitin pacl. Tusruktu ke saflaiya El ac fah loangekut ac akwoyela ma koluk su tuh orek nu sesr. El ac fah uskutme nu ke kalem. Kut fah moul ac liye ke El ac molikutla.
10 So shall she who had been mine enemy fear, and shame, shall cover her, who used to say unto me—Where is Yahweh thy God? Mine own eyes, shall look upon her, Now, shall she become one to he trodden down, like the mire of the lanes.
Na mwet lokoalok lasr fah liye ma inge ac mwekinla — nuna mwet lokoalok pacna su tuh isrun kut ac fahk, “Pia sruk LEUM GOD se lowos an?” Kut ac fah liye ke kutangyukla elos, ac lolongyuki oana fohk furarrar inkanek uh.
11 On the day for building thy walls, —on that day, far away shall be thy boundary:
Mwet Jerusalem, pacl in sifilpa musai pot in siti uh summa. In pacl sac acn lowos ac fah akyokyeyukelik.
12 The very day, that, against thee, shall one come from Assyria, and [from] the cities of Egypt; yea from Egypt, even unto the River, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain:
Mwet lowos fah folokeni nu yuruwos liki acn nukewa — liki acn Assyria layen kutulap, liki Egypt layen eir, liki acn nukewa apunla Infacl Euphrates, liki meoa ac fineol yen loessula uh.
13 Though the land become a desolation, because of them that dwell therein, —by reason of the fruit of their doings.
Tusruktu faclu ac fah ekla sie acn mwesis ke sripen ma koluk lalos su muta fac.
14 Shepherd thou thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine inheritance, Dwell thou alone, a jungle in the midst of a fruitful field, —Let them feed in Bashan and in Gilead, as in the days of age-past times.
LEUM GOD, kom in oana sie shepherd nu sin mwet lom, mwet su kom sulela. Elos finne muta mukaimtal insak uh, oasr na ima wowo raunelosla. Lela elos in som mongo in ima wowo lun Bashan ac Gilead, oana ke elos tuh oru in pacl meet ah.
15 As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt, will I shew him wonders.
Orek mwenmen nu sesr, LEUM GOD, in oana ke kom tuh oru in len ingo ke kom uskutme liki acn Egypt.
16 Nations, shall see, that they may turn pale at all their valour, —they shall lay hand on mouth, their ears, shall be silent:
Mutanfahl puspis ac fah liye ma inge ac arulana mwekinla kac, finne yohk ku lalos. Elos fah kaliya oallos ac fonosya insraclos ke sripen elos toasrla.
17 They shall lick the dust like the serpent, Like the crawlers of the earth, shall they come quaking out of their fastnesses, —Towards Yahweh our God, shall they pay adoration, and shall fear because of thee.
Elos fah orak infohk uh oana wet uh. Ke sripen sangeng lalos elos ac rarrar ac tuku liki pot ku lalos, ac forla nu sin LEUM GOD lasr.
18 Who is a GOD like unto thee, taking away the iniquity—and passing over the transgression—of the remnant of his inheritance? He hath not held fast, perpetually, his anger, for, one who delighteth in lovingkindness, is he!
Wangin sie pac god oana kom, O LEUM GOD. Kom nunak munas ke ma koluk lun mwet lom su painmoulla. Kom tia sruokya kasrkusrak lom nwe tok, ac kom insewowo in fahkak nu sesr lungse kawil lom.
19 He will again have compassion upon us, he will subdue our iniquities, —Thou wilt cast—into the depths of the sea—all their sins.
Kom ac fah sifilpa pakoten nu sesr. Kom fah futungya ma koluk lasr nu ye niom, ac supweya nu yen loallana in meoa uh!
20 Thou wilt grant—the faithfulness to Jacob, the lovingkindness to Abraham, —which thou didst swear to our fathers, from the days of ancient time.
Kom fah akkalemye oaru ac lungse kawil lom nu sin mwet lom, mwet in fwil natul Abraham ac Jacob, oana ke kom wuleang nu sin mwet matu lasr pacl loes somla ah.
