Micah 5
1 Now you will cut yourself O daughter of troop[s] a siege someone has set on us with rod they will strike on the cheek [the] judge of Israel.
Mommoaboa mo asraafo ano, akofo kuropɔn, efisɛ atamfo atwa yɛn ho ahyia. Wɔde abaa bɛbɔ nea odi Israel so no wɔ nʼafono so.
2 And you O Beth-lehem Ephrathah [are] insignificant to be among [the] families of Judah from you for me someone will go out to be ruler over Israel and origins his [are] from antiquity from days of antiquity.
“Nanso wo, Betlehem Efrata, ɛwɔ mu sɛ woyɛ ketewa wɔ Yuda mmusua mu de, nanso wo mu na obi befi ama me a obedi Israel so, na nʼase fi teteete.”
3 Therefore he will deliver up them until a time [when one who is] about to give birth she has given birth and [the] rest of brothers his they will return! with [the] people of Israel.
Enti wobɛto Israelfo paahwii, kosi sɛ ɔbea a awo aka no no bɛwo na ne nuanom mmarima nkae bɛsan akɔka Israelfo ho.
4 And he will stand and he will shepherd by [the] strength of Yahweh by [the] majesty of [the] name of Yahweh God his and they will remain for now he will be great to [the] ends of [the] earth.
Ɔbɛsɔre ahwɛ ne nguankuw wɔ Awurade ahoɔden mu, wɔ Awurade ne Nyankopɔn din kɛseyɛ mu. Na wɔbɛtena asomdwoe mu, na afei ne kɛseyɛ bedu asase awiei.
5 And he will be this [one] peace Assyria - for it will come in land our and for it will tread on fortresses our and we will raise up on him seven shepherds and eight princes of man.
Na ɔbɛyɛ wɔn asomdwoe. Sɛ Asiriafo bɛtow ahyɛ yɛn asase so, na wɔbɔ nsra fa yɛn aban mu a, yɛde nguanhwɛfo baason, mpo asahene baawɔtwe behyia wɔn.
6 And they will shepherd [the] land of Assyria with the sword and [the] land of Nimrod at entrances its and he will deliver [us] from Assyria if it will come in land our and for it will tread in territory our.
Wɔde afoa bedi Asiria asase so, wɔbɛtwe afoa de adi Nimrod asase so. Sɛ Asiriafo tow hyɛ yɛn so, bɔ nsra fa yɛn ahye so a, obegye yɛn afi wɔn nsam.
7 And it will be - [the] remnant of Jacob in [the] midst of peoples many like dew from with Yahweh like copious showers on vegetation which not it waits for anyone and not it waits for [the] children of humankind.
Yakob asefo nkae no bɛfrafra nnipa bebree mu te sɛ obosu a efi Awurade, te sɛ osu a ɛpete gu sare so a ɛntwɛn ɔdesani, na ɔdesani biara rentumi nsiw ho kwan.
8 And it will be [the] remnant of Jacob among the nations in [the] midst of peoples many like a lion among [the] animals of [the] forest like a young lion (among flocks of *L(abh)*) sheep which if it has passed through and it tramples and it tears and there not [is] a deliverer.
Wɔbɛkan Yakob asefo nkae no afra aman no mu, wɔbɛfrafra nnipa bebree mu te sɛ gyata a ɔfra mmoa mu wɔ kwae mu, te sɛ gyata ba a ɔfra nguankuw mu a ɔbobɔ wɔn tetew wɔn mu na obiara ntumi nnye wɔn.

Wɔbɛma wo nsa so sɛ woadi wʼatamfo so nkonim, na wɔbɛsɛe wʼatamfo nyinaa.
10 And it will be in the day that [the] utterance of Yahweh and I will cut off horses your from midst your and I will destroy chariots your.

14 And I will pluck up Asherah poles your from midst your and I will destroy cities your.
Metutu Asera abosomnnua no afi wo mu na masɛe wo nkuropɔn.
15 And I will do in anger and in rage vengeance with the nations which not they have obeyed.
Aman a wɔantie mʼasɛm no nyinaa, mede abufuw ne abufuwhyew bɛtɔ wɔn so were.”
