Micah 2
1 Woe to those who plan iniquity, to those who plan on their beds to do evil. In the morning light they do it because they have power.
Kaĩ andũ arĩa mathugundaga waganu, o acio meciiragia maũndũ mooru marĩ ũrĩrĩ, marĩ na haaro-ĩ! Rũciinĩ gwakĩa mekaga o ũguo, tondũ hinya wa gwĩka ũguo marĩ naguo.
2 They desire fields and seize them; they desire houses and take them. They oppress a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.
Macumĩkagĩra mĩgũnda makamĩtunyana, na makeerirĩria nyũmba magacioya na hinya. Maheenagia mũndũ makamũtunya mũciĩ wake, makaheenia mũndũ wao, makamũtunya igai rĩake.
3 Therefore Yahweh says this, “Look, I am about to bring disaster against this clan, from which you will not remove your necks. You will not walk arrogantly, for it will be an evil time.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio, Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩndĩrathugunda mwanangĩko wa gũũkĩrĩra andũ aya, ũrĩa mũtakahota kwĩhonokia. Mũtigacooka gũthiiaga na mwĩtĩĩo, nĩgũkorwo ihinda rĩu nĩ rĩa mũtino.
4 In that day men will sing a song about you, and lament with a wailing lamentation. They will sing, 'We Israelites are completely ruined; Yahweh changes the territory of my people. How can he remove it from me? He portions out our fields to traitors!'”
Mũthenya ũcio andũ nĩmakamũthekerera; na mamũnyũrũrie na rwĩmbo rũrũ rwa kĩrĩro, maine atĩrĩ, ‘Tũrĩ anange biũ; indo cia andũ akwa nĩngayane. Nĩacieheretie kuuma kũrĩ niĩ! Aragaya mĩgũnda iitũ kũrĩ andũ arĩa matũkunyanagĩra.’”
5 Therefore, you rich people will have no descendants to divide up the territory by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.
Nĩ ũndũ mũtigakorwo na mũndũ o na ũmwe kĩũngano-inĩ kĩa Jehova wa kũgaya ithaka na ũndũ wa gũcicuukĩra mĩtĩ.
6 “Do not prophesy,” they say. “They must not prophesy these things; reproaches must not come.”
Anabii ao moigaga atĩrĩ, “Mũtikarathe ũhoro. Tigagai kũratha ũhoro ũkoniĩ maũndũ maya; gĩconoko gĩtigatũkinyĩrĩra.”
7 Should it really be said, house of Jacob, “Is the Spirit of Yahweh angry? Are these really his deeds?” Do not my words do good to anyone who walks uprightly?
Ningĩ nĩ kwagĩrĩire kũũranagio atĩrĩ, wee nyũmba ya Jakubu: “Kaĩ Roho wa Jehova arĩ mũrakaru? We no eke maũndũ ta macio?” “Githĩ ciugo ciakwa itigunaga mũndũ ũrĩa ũthiiaga na mĩthiĩre mĩrũngĩrĩru?
8 Lately my people have risen up like an enemy. You strip the robe, the garment, from those who pass by unsuspectingly, as soldiers return from war to what they think is safety.
Ica‑ikuhĩ‑rĩ, andũ akwa maarahũkĩte magatuĩka ta thũ. Mũtunyaga andũ arĩa mahooreire nguo ciao cia goro, mũgatunya ehĩtũkĩri arĩa marahĩtũka matekũmaka, o acio matakoragwo na meciiria ma mbaara na inyuĩ.
9 You drive the women belonging to my people from their pleasant houses; you take my blessing from their young children forever.
Mũingataga andũ‑a‑nja a andũ akwa kuuma mĩciĩ yao ĩrĩa mĩega. Mũgatunya ciana ciao kĩrathimo gĩakwa nginya tene.
10 Get up and leave, for this is not a place where you can stay, because of its uncleanness; it is destroyed with complete destruction.
Ũkĩrai mũthiĩ, mwehere! Nĩgũkorwo gĩikaro gĩkĩ ti kĩo kĩhurũko kĩanyu, tondũ nĩgĩthaahie, kĩanangĩtwo ũndũ gĩtangĩcookererio.
11 If someone comes to you in a spirit of falsehood and lies and says, “I will prophesy to you about wine and strong drink,” he would be considered to be a prophet for this people.
Mũndũ wa maheeni na ũtaaragia ma angĩũka oige atĩrĩ, ‘Ndaamũrathĩra gũkorwo na ndibei na njoohi nyingĩ,’ ũcio nĩwe ũngĩtĩkĩrĩka nĩ andũ aya!
12 I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a fold, like a flock in the midst of their pasture. There will be a loud noise because of the multitude of people.
“Atĩrĩrĩ, inyuĩ andũ a Jakubu, ti‑itherũ nĩngamũcookanĩrĩria, inyuothe, o na inyuĩ matigari ma Isiraeli nĩngamũrehe hamwe. Ngamarehe hamwe ta ngʼondu irĩ kiugũ, matuĩke ta rũũru rwa mbũri rũrĩ ũrĩithio-inĩ waruo; nakĩo kĩrĩndĩ kĩa andũ kĩiyũre kuo.
13 Someone who breaks open their way for them will go ahead of them. They break through the gate and go out; their king will pass on before them. Yahweh will be at their head.
Mũhingũri njĩra, nĩakambata arĩ mbere yao; nao nĩmakamomora kĩhingo moime nja. Mũthamaki wao nĩakoimagara arĩ mbere yao, Jehova amatongoretie.”
