Micah 3
1 I said, “Now listen, you leaders of Jacob and rulers of the house of Israel: Is it not right for you to understand justice?
Kinunak, “Ita, dumngegkayo, dakayo a mangidadaulo iti Jacob ken agturturay iti balay ni Israel: Saan kadi a rumbeng a maawatanyo ti hustisia?
2 You who hate good and love evil, you who tear off their skin, their flesh from their bones—
Dakayo a manggurgura iti naimbag ken mangay-ayat iti dakes, dakayo a manglaplaplap iti kudilda, iti lasagda manipud kadagiti tulangda-
3 you who also eat the flesh of my people, and tear their skin off, break their bones, and chop them in pieces, just like meat for a pot, just like meat in a cauldron.
dakayo met a mangkakaan iti lasag dagiti tattaok, ken manglaplapgis iti kudilda, mangtuktukkol kadagiti tulangda ken mangtadtadtad kadakuada, a kasla karne nga iluto iti banga, a kasla karne iti kaldero.
4 Then you rulers will cry out to Yahweh, but he will not answer you. He will hide his face from you at that time, because you have done evil deeds.”
Ket dakayo a mangiturturay, umawagkayonto kenni Yahweh, ngem saanakayonto a sungbatan. Iti dayta a tiempo, saannakayonto a denggen, gapu ta naka-aramidkayo iti dakes.”
5 Yahweh says this, “As for the prophets who lead my people astray, if one gives them something to eat, they proclaim, 'Peace.' But if he puts nothing in their mouths, they dedicate themselves to wage war on him.
Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh maipapan kadagiti profeta a mangiyaw-awan kadagiti tattaok: “Ipablaakda kadagiti mangpakpakan kadakuada, ‘Addanto iti kinarang-ay.' Ngem para kadagiti awan ti maipakanna kadakuada, mangirugida iti gubat a maibusor kenkuana.
6 Therefore, it will be night for you with no vision for you; it will be dark so that you will do no divination. The sun will go down on the prophets, and the day will be dark on them.
Ngarud, agbalinto daytoy a rabii kadakayo ket awanton ti masirmatayo; sumipngetto daytoy tapno awanto ti maipadtoyo. Lumnekton ti init kadagiti profeta, ket sumipngetto ti aldaw kadakuada.
7 The seers will be put to shame, and the diviners will be confused. All of them will cover their lips, for there is no answer from me.”
Maibabainto dagiti mammadles, ken mariribukanto dagiti mammadto. Apputendanto amin dagiti bibigda, ta saankonto ida a sungbatan.”
8 But as for me, I am full of power by the Spirit of Yahweh, and am full of justice and might, to declare to Jacob his transgression, and to Israel his sin.
Ngem no maipapan kaniak, napnoanak iti pannakabalin babaen iti Espiritu ni Yahweh, ken napnoanak iti hustisia ken bileg, a mangibutaktak iti panagsalungasing ni Jacob ken iti basol ni Israel.
9 Now listen to this, you leaders of the house of Jacob, and rulers of the house of Israel, you who detest justice, and pervert everything right.
Ita, denggenyo daytoy, dakayo a mangidadaulo iti balay ni Jacob, ken agturturay iti balay ni Israel, dakayo a mangurgura iti hustisia, ken mangkilkillo iti amin a nalinteg.
10 You build Zion with blood and Jerusalem with iniquity.
Ipatakderyo ti Sion babaen iti panagpasayasay iti dara ken ti Jerusalem babaen iti kinadakes.
11 Your leaders judge for a bribe, your priests teach for a price, and your prophets do divination for money. Yet you rely on Yahweh and say, “Is not Yahweh with us? No evil will come on us.”
Mangukom dagiti mangidadauloyo gapu iti pasuksok, mangisuro dagiti padiyo gapu iti gunggona, ken agipadto dagiti profetayo gapu iti kuarta. Ngem agsadagkayo latta kenni Yahweh ket kunayo, “Saan kadi nga adda kadatayo ni Yahweh? Awanto ti dakes nga umay kadatayo.”
12 Therefore, because of you, Zion will become a plowed field, Jerusalem will become a heap of rubble, and the hill of the temple will become a thicket.
Ngarud, gapu kadakayo, maaradonto ti Sion a kas iti maysa a talon, agbalinto ti Jerusalem a gabsuon iti nagrebbaan, ken agbalinto ti turod iti templo a kasla kabakiran a turod.
