Micah 2
1 Terrible things will happen to you who lie awake at night, planning to do wicked things. You get up at dawn, and you do those things, [as soon as] you are able to do them.
¡Ay de los que piensan iniquidad, y de los que fabrican el mal en sus camas! y cuando viene la mañana lo ponen en obra, porque tienen en su mano el poder.
2 You want fields [that belong to other people], so you seize them; you also take their houses. You cheat people to get their homes, taking away the property that belongs to their families.
Y codiciaron las heredades, y las robaron: y casas, y las tomaron: oprimieron al hombre y a su casa, al hombre y a su heredad.
3 Therefore, this is what Yahweh says: “I will cause you people to experience disasters, and you will not be able to escape [MTY] from them. You will no [longer] walk around proudly, because when those things happen, it will be a time of much trouble for you.
Por tanto así dijo Jehová: He aquí que yo pienso mal sobre esta familia, del cual no sacaréis vuestros cuellos, ni andaréis enhiestos, porque el tiempo será malo.
4 At that time, [your enemies] will make fun of you; they will ridicule you by singing this sad song about you: ‘We are completely ruined; Yahweh is taking our land/fields from us, and he will give it to those who will capture us.’”
En aquel tiempo se levantará sobre vosotros refrán, y se endechará endecha de lamentación, diciendo: Del todo fuimos destruidos: trocó la parte de mi pueblo: ¡cómo nos quitó nuestros campos! dio, los repartió a otros.
5 So [when it is the time for the land to be given back to you] people who belong to Yahweh, there will be no one [MTY] who will be able to (cast lots/throw marked stones) to determine which land belongs to whom.
Por tanto no tendrás quien eche cordel para suerte en la congregación de Jehová.
6 The people [who heard me say that] replied to me, “Do not prophesy such things! Do not say that [Yahweh] is going to humiliate us [by causing us to experience disasters]!”
No profeticéis, los que profetizáis, no les profeticen que los ha de comprender vergüenza.
7 But you people [MTY] of Israel should not [RHQ] talk like that! The Spirit of Yahweh will certainly not [RHQ] be patient [with people who say such things]! People who continually do things that are righteous will certainly [RHQ] like/appreciate what I say.
La que te dices, casa de Jacob: ¿Háse acortado el Espíritu de Jehová? ¿son estas sus obras? ¿Mis palabras no hacen bien al que camina derechamente?
8 [But Yahweh says], “[Recently] my people have been acting toward me like an enemy. When soldiers return from fighting [against their enemies], you [rich people refuse to return the coats of those poor soldiers who have borrowed money from you] [and given you their coats to guarantee that they will pay back the money that they borrowed from you]. [It is as though] you are waiting to forcefully take their coats off their backs!
El que ayer era mi pueblo se ha levantado como enemigo tras la vestidura: quitasteis las capas atrevidamente a los que pasaban, como los que vuelven de la guerra.
9 You have forced women to leave their nice homes, and you have stolen from their children forever the (blessings/good things) that I wanted to give them.
A las mujeres de mi pueblo echasteis fuera de las casas de sus deleites: a sus niños quitasteis mi perpetua alabanza.
10 [So] get up and leave [here]! This is not a place where you can rest [and be safe/protected], because you have (defiled it/caused it to be a place that I hate); it will be completely destroyed.
Levantáos, y andád: que no es esta la holganza; porque está contaminada, corrompióse, y de grande corrupción.
11 [You people want] a prophet who will lie to you, saying ‘I will preach [that you should drink] plenty of wine and [other] alcoholic drinks!’ That is the [kind of] prophet who [would please] you.”
Si hubiere alguno que ande con el viento, y mienta mentiras, diciendo: Yo te profetizaré, por vino, y por sidra: este tal será profeta a este pueblo.
12 “[But some day], you descendants of Jacob, you Israeli people who have survived, I will bring you back [from (exile/other countries)], I will gather you together like [SIM] [a shepherd gathers his] sheep from the pasture into a pen [DOU]; there will be many of you in your land/country.
Juntando te juntaré todo, o! Jacob: recogiendo recogeré la resta de Israel: ponerle he junto como ovejas de Bosra, como rebaño en mitad de su majada: harán estruendo por la multitud de los hombres.
13 Your leader will enable them to leave the countries where they have been exiled; he will lead them out of the gates [of their enemies’ cities], [back to your own country]. Your king will lead them; [it is I], Yahweh, who will be their king!”
Subirá rompedor delante de ellos: romperán, y pasarán la puerta, y saldrán por ella; y su rey pasará delante de ellos, Jehová por su cabeza.
