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].
Y ACONTECERÁ en los postreros tiempos, que el monte de la casa de Jehová será constituído por cabecera de montes, y más alto que los collados, y correrán á él pueblos.
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.
Y vendrán muchas gentes, y dirán: Venid, y subamos al monte de Jehová, y á la casa del Dios de Jacob; y enseñarános en sus caminos, y andaremos por sus veredas: porque de Sión saldrá la ley, y de Jerusalem la palabra de Jehová.
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.
Y juzgará entre muchos pueblos, y corregirá fuertes gentes hasta muy lejos: y martillarán sus espadas para azadones, y sus lanzas para hoces: no alzará espada gente contra gente, ni más se ensayarán para la 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.
Y cada uno se sentará debajo de su vid y debajo de su higuera, y no habrá quien amedrente: porque la boca de Jehová de los ejércitos lo ha 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.
Bien que todos los pueblos anduvieren cada uno en el nombre de sus dioses, nosotros con todo andaremos en el nombre de Jehová nuestro Dios para siempre y eternalmente.
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.
En aquel día, dice Jehová, juntaré la coja, y recogeré la amontada, y á la que afligí;
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.
Y pondré á la coja para sucesión, y á la descarriada para nación robusta: y Jehová reinará sobre ellos en el monte de Sión desde ahora 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 tú, oh torre del rebaño, la fortaleza de la hija de Sión vendrá hasta ti: y el señorío primero, el reino vendrá á la hija de Jerusalem.
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.
Ahora ¿por qué gritas tanto? ¿No hay rey en ti? ¿Pereció tu consejero, que te ha tomado dolor como de mujer 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.
Duélete y gime, hija de Sión, como mujer de parto; porque ahora saldrás de la ciudad, y morarás en el campo, y llegarás hasta Babilonia: allí serás librada, allí te redimirá Jehová de la mano 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 empero se han juntado muchas gentes contra ti, y dicen: Sea profanada, y vean nuestros ojos [su deseo] sobre 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.
Mas ellos no conocieron los pensamientos de Jehová, ni entendieron su consejo: por lo cual los juntó como gavillas en 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.”
Levántate y trilla, hija de Sión, porque tu cuerno tornaré de hierro, y tus uñas de metal, y desmenuzarás muchos pueblos; y consagrarás á Jehová sus robos, y sus riquezas al Señor de toda la tierra.
