Micah 4
1 Yahweh [says that] some day his temple will be on top of a mountain, and that mountain will be the most important [MET] one on the earth; it will be [as though it is] higher than all the hills, and huge groups of people from all over the world will come there [to worship].
En los últimos días, la montaña donde se erige el Templo del Señor será conocida como la más alta de las montañas que sobresale entre las otras colinas. Multitudes de personas viajarán a ella.
2 [People from] many nations will say [to each other], “Let’s go to the mountain where Yahweh is, to the temple where we can worship the God whom Jacob [worshiped]. There God will teach us how he wants us to conduct our lives, and we will do what he wants us to do.” Zion [Hill] is the place where he will teach [people]; and [people will go] out from Jerusalem [to tell others] his messages.
Muchas naciones dirán: “Subamos a la cima del monte del Señor, al Templo del Dios de Jacob. Allí Dios nos enseñará sus caminos y seguiremos sus enseñanzas”. Las enseñanzas de Dios se esparcirán desde Sión y su palabra desde Jerusalén.
3 Yahweh will settle disputes between many people, and he will [also] settle disputes between powerful nations that are far away. Then people will hammer their swords to cause them to become plow blades, and [hammer] their spears to cause them to become pruning knives. [Armies of] nations will no [longer] fight against [armies of other] nations, and they will no longer train [men how to fight] in wars.
El Señor será el juez que decida el caso de las naciones, él resolverá los conflictos entre naciones poderosas distantes. Ellos forjarán sus espadas y las convertirán en arados, y transformarán sus lanzas en podaderas. Las naciones ya no pelearán unas con otras, in usarán estrategias de guerra.
4 Everyone will sit [peacefully] under his own grapevines, and under his own fig trees; no one will cause them to be afraid. [That is what will surely happen] because the Commander of the armies of angels has said it.
Todos podrán sentarse bajo sus viñedos y sus higueras, pues no habrá quien los atemorice. ¡Yo, el Señor Todopoderoso he hablado!
5 Many [HYP] [of the people of other] nations will worship [IDM] their own gods, but we will worship Yahweh our God always, forever.
Aunque todas las demás naciones siguen a sus propios dioses, nosotros seguiremos al Señor nuestro Dios por siempre y para siempre.
6 Yahweh says, “There will soon be a time when I will gather the people whom I have punished, who have been (exiled/forced to go to other countries), all those whom [I have caused to] suffer much.
Ese día, declara el Señor, yo reuniré a los que están cojos, y a los que han sido esparcidos por causa del exilio, a esos a quienes he castigado.
7 My people who did not die while they were exiled will become a strong nation [again]. Then [I], Yahweh, will be their king, and I will rule from Jerusalem forever.
Yo haré de los que quedan y de los inválidos una nación fuerte, y el Señor los gobernará desde el Monte de Sión por siempre y para siempre.
8 As for you people of Jerusalem [MET], you who [guard all of my people] like [MET] [a shepherd guards his sheep] from a tower, you [who live on] Zion [Hill], will have great power again. You people who live in Jerusalem will again rule like you did previously.
Y en cuanto a ti, Jeruslén, atalaya del rebaño, recobrarás tu gobierno y poder: el reino se le devolverá a Jerusalén.
9 [So] why [RHQ] are you wailing now? Is it because you have no king? Have all your wise people died? You are groaning loudly like [SIM] a woman who is giving birth to a baby.
¿Por qué gritan entonces? ¿Acaso no tienen un rey? ¿Acaso ha muerto tu rey para que sientas dolor como una mujer en proceso de parto?
10 [Well], you people of Jerusalem should writhe and groan like [SIM] a woman who is having birth pains, because now you must leave this city, and [while you are traveling], you will set up tents in open fields [at night]; you will go to [live in] Babylon. [But while you are] there, [I], Yahweh, will rescue you; I will free you from the power/control [MTY] of your enemies.
Retuércete en agonía como la mujer al dar a luz, pueblo de Sión, porque serás expulsado de la ciudad, y obligado a acampar a las afueras, y deportado a Babilonia. Pero el Señor te traerá de regreso y te rescatará del poder de tus enemigos.
11 Now [the armies of] many nations have gathered to attack you. They are saying, ‘Jerusalem must be destroyed! We want to see this city [when it becomes ruins]!’
Ahora mismo muchos enemigos se han reunido contra ti, y dicen: “¡Vamos a atacarla y violarla, y nos alegraremos de la ruina de Sión!”
12 But they do not know what [I], Yahweh, think, and they do not understand what I plan: I will gather them [and punish them] like [SIM] [farmers] thresh grain on the ground.
¡Pero ellos no conocen el pensamientos del Señor, y no entienden sus planes. El Señor los ha reunido como manojos de trigo a la era.
13 So, you people of Jerusalem, rise up and punish [MET] [the nations who oppose you]. I will cause you [to be very strong], [as if] [MET] you had horns made of iron, [as if] [MET] you had hoofs made of bronze; and you will crush many nations. And [then you will take] from your enemies the valuable things that they have taken [from other countries], and you will dedicate those things to [me, the one who is] the Lord of all [the people on] the earth.”
Pueblo de Sión, levántate y comienza a trillar, porque yo haré para ti bocinas de hierro, y pezuñas de bronce para que hagas pedazos muchas naciones. Tu presentarás el botín y su riqueza al Señor de toda la tierra.
