< Micah 7 >
1 I am very miserable/frustrated! I am like [SIM] someone who is hungry, [who searches for fruit to pick] after all the fruit had been picked and who finds no grapes or figs to eat.
Jaj nekem, mert olyan lettem, mint begyűjtéskor a gyümölcsszedés után, mint böngészéskor a szüret után: nincs szőlőfürt evésre, korai fügét kívánt lelkem.
2 [All] the godly people have disappeared from this land; there is not one of them left. [The people who are left] are all murderers [MTY]; [it is as though] everyone is eager to kill his fellow countryman.
Elveszett a jámbor az országból, és becsületes az emberek között nincsen; mindannyian vérontásra leselkednek, kiki hálóval vadász testvérére.
3 They [all] use both hands to do what is evil. [Government] officials and judges [all] ask for bribes. Important people tell others what they want, and they plot/scheme together [about how to get it done].
A rossznál két kéz is van, hogy jól elvégezzék, a vezér kér s a ki bíró, fizetésért az, s a ki nagy, lelkének vágya szerint beszélt, s így összekuszálják.
4 [Even] the best people are [as worthless] [SIM] as briers; the people [who are considered by others to be] [IRO] the most honest are worse than clumps of thornbushes. But, [Yahweh] will soon judge them; now is the time that he will punish people, a time when they will be [very] confused [because of being defeated].
Legjobbikuk olyan, mint a tövisbokor, a becsületes rosszabb tüskés sövénynél őreidnek napja a te büntetésed bekövetkezett, most meglesz a zavarodásuk!
5 [So], do not trust anyone! Do not trust [even] a friend; [even] be careful what you say to your wife whom you love!
Ne higyjetek barátban, ne bízzatok társban: a nőtől, ki öledben fekszik, őrizd szájad ajtóit!
6 Boys will despise their fathers, and girls will defy their mothers. Women will defy their mothers-in-law. Your enemies will be those who live in your own houses.
Mert fiú meggyalázza atyját, leány támad anyja ellen, meny a napa ellen; a férfi ellenségei házának emberei.
7 As for me, I wait for Yahweh [to help me]. I confidently expect that God, my Savior, will answer me [when I pray].
Én pedig az Örökkévalóban hadd reménykedem, hadd várakozom üdvöm Istenére; hallgat reám az én Istenem.
8 You who are our enemies, do not gloat/rejoice about [what has happened to] us, [because even] if we have experienced disasters, [those disasters will end and] we will be restored. [Even] if [it is as though] we are sitting in the darkness, Yahweh will be our light.
Ne örülj rajtam, ellenségem! Mert bár elestem, fölkelek; bár sötétségben ülök, az Örökkévaló világosság nekem.
9 We must be patient while Yahweh punishes us because we have sinned against him. But later, [it will be as though] he will go to court and defend us, and he will make sure that the judge makes a right decision about us. [It will be as though] he will bring us out into the light, and we will see it when he rescues us.
Az Örökkévaló haragját viselem, mert vétkeztem ellene míg nem ügyemet viszi és igazamat szerzi, kivisz engem a világosságra, nézni fogom igazságát.
10 Our enemies will [also] see that, and they will be disgraced because they [ridiculed us], saying “Why is [RHQ] Yahweh, that God of yours, [not helping you]?” But with our own eyes we will see them when they are defeated; we will see them trampled like [SIM] mud in the streets.
Hadd lássa ellenségem és borítsa szégyen, ő, a ki így szólt hozzám: hol van az Örökkévaló, a te Istened? Szemeim majd nézik őt, majd taposássá lesz, mint az utczák sara.
11 [You people of Israel, ] at that time your cities will be rebuilt, and your territory will become larger.
Azon napon, hogy fölépítik falaidat – ama napnak távol van a határa-
12 [People from many countries will come to honor you]: people from Assyria and from [near] the [Euphrates] River [in the east] and from Egypt [in the south], from distant seas, and from many mountains.
azon napon hozzád jönnek el egészen Assúrból és Egyiptom városából, és Egyiptomtól egészen a folyamig, tengertől tengerig, hegységtől hegységig.
13 But [the other countries on] the earth will become desolate because of the [evil] things that their people have done.
És pusztulássá lesz a föld az ő lakói miatt, cselekedeteik gyümölcsétől.
14 Yahweh, protect your people like [MET] [a shepherd protects his sheep] by using his walking stick; lead your people [MET] whom you have chosen to belong to you. [Even though some of them] live by themselves in a forest, give them the fertile pastureland in the Bashan and Gilead [regions] that they possessed long ago.
Legeltesd népedet vessződdel, birtokod nyáját, mely külön lakik, erdőben a termőfölded közepette; legeljenek Básánban és Gileádban, mint az őskor napjaiban.
15 [Yahweh says/replies], “[Yes], I will perform miracles for you like the miracles that I performed when I rescued your [ancestors] from [being slaves in] Egypt.”
Mint Egyiptomból való kijöttödnek napjaiban – láttatok majd vele csodálatos dolgokat.
16 [People from many] nations will see [what Yahweh does for you], and they will be ashamed because they do not have any power. They will put their hands over their mouths and their ears [because they will be very amazed because of what Yahweh does], [and they will not be able to say anything or hear anything].
Látják nemzetek én megszégyenülnek minden hatalmuk mellett; kezet szájra tesznek, füleik megsiketülnek.
17 [Being very humiliated, ] they will crawl on the ground [MTY] like [SIM] snakes. They will come out of their homes trembling, and stand revering Yahweh our God. They will be very afraid of him, and will tremble in front of him.
Port nyalnak mint a kígyó, mint a földön csúszók, reszketve jönnek elő zárt helyeikből; az Örökkévalóhoz, Istenünkhöz remegve sietnek és félni fognak tőled!
18 [Yahweh], there is no [RHQ] God like you; you forgive the sins [DOU] that were committed by the people who have survived, the people who belong to you. You do not remain angry forever; you are very happy [to show us] that you faithfully love [us].
Ki van Isten olyan mint te, a ki megbocsátja a bűnt, és elnézi a bűntettet az ő birtoka maradékának; nem mindétig tartja meg haragját, mert ő kegyelmet kedvel.
19 You will again act kindly/compassionately toward us. You will get rid of [the scroll on which you have written] the sins that we have committed [as though you were] trampling it under your feet or throwing it into the deep ocean.
Újra fog nekünk irgalmazni, lenyomja bűneinket – és bedobod a tenger mélységébe mind a vétkeiteket.
20 You will show that you faithfully [do what you promised for us] and faithfully love us, just like you solemnly promised long ago to our ancestors Abraham and Jacob that you would do.
Hűséget adsz Jákóbnak, szeretetet Ábrahámnak, ahogy megesküdtél őseinknek a hajdankor napjaitól fogva.
