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?
Ergasii ani akkanan jedhe; “Isin hooggantoonni Yaaqoob, bulchitoonni mana Israaʼel mee dhaggeeffadhaa. Isin murtii qajeelaa beekuu hin qabdanii?
2 You who hate good and love evil, you who tear off their skin, their flesh from their bones—
Isin warri waan gaarii jibbitanii waan hamaa jaallattan, warri saba koo irraa gogaa, lafee isaanii irraa immoo foon baaftan,
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.
warri foon saba koo nyaattan, kanneen gogaa isaanii irraa qunciftanii lafee isaanii caccabsitan, isin warri akka foon eeleetti waadamuutii fi okkoteetti affeelamuu isaan ciccirtan murtii qajeelaa beekuu hin qabdanii?”
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.”
Ergasii isaan Waaqayyotti iyyatu; inni garuu deebii hin kennuuf. Yeroo sanatti inni sababii cubbuu isaan hojjetaniitiif fuula isaa isaan duraa ni dhokfata.
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.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Waaʼee raajota saba koo karaa irraa jalʼisanii, yoo namni tokko nyaata kenneef isaan ‘Nagaa’ labsu; yoo inni akkas gochuu baate immoo lola isatti kaasuuf qophaaʼu.
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.
Kanaafuu utuu isin mulʼata hin argin halkan, utuu isin hooda hin dubbatin immoo dukkanni isinitti dhufa. Aduun raajotatti dhiiti; guyyaanis isaanitti dukkanaaʼa.
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.”
Ilaaltonni ni qaanaʼu; warri hooda dubbatanis ni salphifamu. Sababii deebiin tokko iyyuu Waaqa biraa hin dhufneef isaan hundi fuula haguuggatu.”
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.
Ani garuu Yaaqoobitti balleessaa isaa, Israaʼelittis cubbuu isaa himuuf humnaan guutameera; Hafuura Waaqayyootiin murtii qajeelaa fi jabinaan guutameera.
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.
Isin hooggantoonni mana Yaaqoob bulchitoonni mana Israaʼel warri murtii qajeelaa tuffattanii waan sirrii taʼe hunda jalʼiftan waan kana dhagaʼaa;
10 You build Zion with blood and Jerusalem with iniquity.
warri dhiiga dhangalaasuudhaan Xiyoonin, hamminaan immoo Yerusaalemin ijaartan waan kana dhagaʼaa.
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.”
Hooggantoonni ishee mattaʼaa fudhatanii murtii kennu; luboonni ishee gatiidhaan barsiisu; raajonni ishees maallaqa fudhatanii hooda dubbatu. Taʼus isaan Waaqayyotti irkatanii, “Waaqayyo gidduu keenya jira mitii? Balaan tokko iyyuu nutti hin dhufu” jedhu.
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.
Kanaafuu sababii keessaniif, Xiyoon akkuma lafa qotiisaatti qotamti; Yerusaalemis tuullaa waan diigamee taati; gaarri mana qulqullummaas tabba daggalaan liqimfame taʼa.
