< Micah 2 >

1 Woe to! [those who] plan wickedness and [those who] do evil on beds their at [the] light the morning they do it for there [belongs] to [the] power of hand their.
Ahụhụ na-adịrị ndị na-eche ihe ọjọọ nʼobi ha, na ndị niile na-edina nʼakwa ha na-eche ajọ echiche. Mgbe chi bọrọ, ha na-arụzu ihe ha chepụtara, nʼihi na ikike imezu ya dị nʼaka ha.
2 And they desire fields and they seize [them] and houses and they take [them] and they oppress a man and household his and a man and inheritance his.
Ha na-enwe anya ukwu nʼebe ubi ndị ọzọ dị, were ha nʼaka ike, na ụlọ dị iche iche, ha ewere ha nʼike. Ha na-ejikwa aka ike nara ndị mmadụ ụlọ ha, ha na-ezunara ha ihe nketa ha.
3 Therefore thus he says Yahweh here I [am] planning on the clan this calamity which not you will remove from there necks your and not you will walk haughtily for [will be] a time evil it.
Nʼihi nke a, Onyenwe anyị na-asị, “Lee, ana m akwado ihe ọjọọ megide agbụrụ a, nke unu na-enweghị ike isite na ya wezuga onwe unu. Unu agaghị eji nganga na-ejegharịkwa, nʼihi na ọ ga-abụ oge ọjọọ.
4 On the day that someone will lift up on you a saying and he will wail a wailing it is finished he will say utterly we are devastated [the] portion of people my he exchanges how! he removes [it] for me to an apostate fields our he apportions.
Nʼụbọchị ahụ ha ga-akọcha unu, ha ga-abụrụ unu abụ iru ụjụ iji ya kọchaa unu na-asị, ‘Anyị abụrụla ndị lara nʼiyi, e kesaala ihe nnweta nke ndị m, ọ napụla m ha. O werela ubi anyị nyefee ha nʼaka ndị ahụ meriri anyị nʼagha.’”
5 Therefore not he will belong to you [one who] casts a measuring-line by lot in [the] assembly of Yahweh.
Nʼihi ya, ọ dịkwaghị onye ga-afọdụ nʼetiti ọgbakọ nke Onyenwe anyị, onye ga-eji ihe ọtụtụ kee ala ahụ site nʼife nza.
6 May not you prophesy they prophesy! not they will prophesy of these [things] not it will be turned back ignomini[es].
Ndị amụma ha na-asị, “Unu ebukwala amụma.” “Unu ebukwala amụma banyere ihe ndị a, ihere agaghị eme anyị.”
7 ¿ [is it] said O house of Jacob ¿ is it short [the] spirit of Yahweh or? [are] these deeds his ¿ not words my do they do good with the upright [person] walking.
Ụdị ihe a o kwesiri okwukwu, gị ụlọ Jekọb? “Ntachiobi Onyenwe anyị ọ gwụla? Ihe ndị a ọ bụ otu o si eme?” “Ọ bụ na okwu m adịghị eme onye ụzọ ya ziri ezi mma?
8 And yesterday people my to an enemy he raises up from in front of a garment a mantle you strip off! from [those who] pass by security [those who] return of war.
Ma ọ bụ unu na-ebili megide ndị m dịka ndị iro. Unu na-eyipụ ndị na-agafe agafe uwe ọma ha yi nʼahụ ha na-enweghị mmetụta, dịka a ga-asị na unu bụ ndị si nʼagha na-alọta.
9 [the] women of People my you drive out! from [the] house of delights her from with children her you take away glory my for ever.
Unu na-achụpụ ndị inyom ndị m site nʼụlọ afọ ojuju ha. Ụmụ ha ka unu na-anapụ ngọzị m ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.

11 If anyone walking of wind and falsehood he told a lie I will prophesy for you of wine and of strong drink and he will be [the] prophesier of the people this.
Ọ bụrụ na otu onye abịa buoro unu amụma ụgha na-asị, ‘Aga m eburu unu amụma banyere mmanya na ihe ọṅụṅụ siri ike,’ ọ bụ onye amụma dị otu a ka ndị a chọrọ.
12 Surely I will gather O Jacob all of you surely I will assemble [the] remnant of Israel together I will make it like sheep a sheepfold like a flock in [the] midst of pasture its they will be distraught from humankind.
“Aga m achịkọta unu niile, gị Jekọb, aga m akpọkọta ndị niile fọdụrụ nʼIzrel nʼotu ebe. Aga m akpọkọta ha dịka atụrụ nʼime ọgba anụ, dịka igwe ewu na atụrụ nʼebe ịta nri ya, ndị mmadụ ga-ejupụtakwa nʼebe ahụ.
13 He will go up the [one who] breaks through before them they will break through and they have passed through [the] gate and they have gone out by it and he has passed on king their before them and Yahweh [will be] at head their.
Onye ahụ na-egbuwa ụzọ ga-anọ nʼihu na-edu ha. Ha ga-etipukwa ọnụ ụzọ ama ahụ, ma site na ya gafee. Eze ha ga-agabigakwa nʼihu ha, Onyenwe anyị ga-anọ nʼisi.”
