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.
Ay de los que traman la iniquidad ¡y trabajar el mal en sus camas! Cuando amanece, lo practican, porque está en el poder de su mano.
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.
Codician los campos y se apoderan de ellos, y casas, y luego se los llevan. Oprimen a un hombre y a su casa, incluso un hombre y su herencia.
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.
Por eso dice Yahvé: “He aquí que estoy planeando contra esta gente un desastre, de la que no se quitará el cuello, ni tampoco caminarás con altivez, porque es un tiempo malo.
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!'”
En ese día se levantará una parábola contra ti, y se lamentan con un lamento lúgubre, diciendo, ‘¡Estamos totalmente arruinados! La posesión de mi pueblo está dividida. En efecto, ¡me lo quita y asigna nuestros campos a los traidores!”
5 Therefore, you rich people will have no descendants to divide up the territory by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.
Por lo tanto, no tendrás a nadie que reparta la tierra por sorteo en la asamblea de Yahvé.
6 “Do not prophesy,” they say. “They must not prophesy these things; reproaches must not come.”
“¡No profetices!” — profetizan. “No profetices sobre estas cosas. La desgracia no nos alcanzará”.
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?
Se dirá, oh casa de Jacob, “¿Está enojado el Espíritu de Yahvé? ¿Son estas sus acciones? ¿No hacen bien mis palabras al que camina sin culpa?”
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.
Pero últimamente mi pueblo se ha levantado como un enemigo. Despojas de la túnica y la ropa a los que pasan sin miramientos, volviendo de la batalla.
9 You drive the women belonging to my people from their pleasant houses; you take my blessing from their young children forever.
Expulsas a las mujeres de mi pueblo de sus casas agradables; de sus hijos pequeños les quitas mi bendición para siempre.
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.
¡Levántate y vete! Porque este no es tu lugar de descanso, a causa de la impureza que destruye, incluso con una grave destrucción.
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.
Si un hombre que camina con espíritu de falsedad miente, diciendo, “Te profetizaré sobre el vino y la bebida fuerte,” sería el profeta de este pueblo.
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.
Seguramente os reuniré a todos, Jacob. Seguramente reuniré el remanente de Israel. Los pondré juntos como las ovejas de Bozra, como un rebaño en medio de sus pastos. Se llenarán de gente.
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.
El que abre el camino sube delante de ellos. Rompen la puerta y salen. Su rey pasa delante de ellos, con Yahvé a la cabeza.
