< Micah 4 >
1 But in the last days it shall come to pass, [that] the mount of the house of the LORD shall be established on the top of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and people shall flow to it.
Le ŋkeke mamlɛawo me la, woaɖo to si dzi Yehowa ƒe gbedoxɔ le la te abe to si ƒo towo katã ta la ene. Woakɔe wòagbɔ togbɛwo katã ta eye amewo aƒo zi ɖe eŋu.
2 And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth from Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.
Dukɔ geɖewo ava agblɔ be, “Miva. Mina míayi Yehowa ƒe to la dzi le Yakob ƒe Mawu la ƒe gbedoxɔ me. Afia eƒe mɔwo mí ale be míazɔ le eƒe mɔwo dzi.” Nufiame atso Zion ava eye Yehowa ƒe nya atso Yerusalem ava.
3 And he shall judge among many people, and rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plow-shares, and their spears into pruning-hooks: nation shall not lift up a sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more.
Adrɔ̃ ʋɔnu le amewo dome, eye wòadzra dukɔ sesẽ siwo le kpuiƒe kple didiƒe siaa la dome ɖo. Woatsɔ woƒe aʋawɔyiwo atu kodzoewoe, eye woatsɔ woƒe akplɔwo atu hɛ gobɛwoe. Dukɔ matsɔ yi ɖe dukɔ ŋu alo axɔ hehe na aʋawɔwɔ o.
4 But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree; and none shall make [them] afraid: for the mouth of the LORD of hosts hath spoken [it].
Ame sia ame anɔ anyi bɔkɔɔ ɖe eya ŋutɔ ƒe wainka kple gboti te; eye ame aɖeke magado ŋɔdzi na wo azɔ o elabena Yehowa, dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Aƒetɔ lae gblɔe.
5 For all people will walk every one in the name of his god, and we will walk in the name of the LORD our God for ever and ever.
Dukɔwo katã ate ŋu azɔ le woƒe mawuwo ƒe ŋkɔ me gake míawo ya míazɔ le Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ƒe ŋkɔ me tegbetegbe.
6 In that day, saith the LORD, I will assemble her that halteth, and I will gather her that is driven out, and her that I have afflicted;
Yehowa be, “Le ŋkeke ma dzi la, maƒo tekunɔwo, aboyomewo kple ame siwo ƒe dzi megbã la nu ƒu.
7 And I will make her that halted a remnant, and her that was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD will reign over them in mount Zion from henceforth, even for ever.
Mawɔ tekunɔwo woazu ame mamlɛawo, eye ame siwo wonya la nazu dukɔ sẽŋu aɖe. Yehowa aɖu fia ɖe wo dzi le Zion to dzi tso gbe ma gbe heyi tegbee.
8 And thou, O tower of the flock, the strong hold of the daughter of Zion, to thee shall it come, even the first dominion; the kingdom shall come, to the daughter of Jerusalem.
Ke wò la, O nye alẽha ƒe gbetakpɔla, O Zion nyɔnuvi ƒe togbɛ, dziɖuɖu agava na wò abe tsã ene. Dziɖuɖu ƒe ŋusẽ agava na wò abe tsã ene eye fiaɖuɖu agava na Yerusalem vinyɔnu.”
9 Now why dost thou cry aloud? [is there] no king in thee? hath thy counselor perished? for pangs have taken thee as a woman in travail.
Azɔ nu ka ta nèle avi fam eye ɖe fia aɖeke mele asiwò oa? Afi ka wò fia si wòle be wòakplɔ wò la to? Ɖe wò aɖaŋuɖolawo ku hafi nèle ŋeŋem abe nyɔnu si le ku lém la enea?
10 Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail: for now shalt thou go forth from the city, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go [even] to Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there the LORD shall redeem thee from the hand of thy enemies.
O Zion nyɔnuvi, ƒo dablibɛ, nàlé ku abe nyɔnu si le vi dzim la ene, elabena tso azɔ dzi yina la, àdzo le du sia me aɖanɔ gbegbe, woakplɔ wò ayi ɖe aboyo me le Babilonianyigba dzi, gake le afi sia la, maɖe wò. Le afi ma la, Yehowa aɖe wò tso futɔwo ƒe asi me.
11 Now also many nations are gathered against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look upon Zion.
Ke azɔ la, dukɔ geɖewo wɔ ɖeka wɔ babla ɖe mia ŋuti; Wogblɔ be: “Mina míado gui eye míaƒe ŋkuwo natsa le Zion.”
12 But they know not the thoughts of the LORD, neither understand they his counsel: for he will gather them as sheaves into the floor.
Ke womenya Yehowa ƒe susuwo o, eye womese eƒe ɖoɖowo gɔme o. Eya ame si ƒo wo nu ƒu abe ale si woƒoa lu bablawo nu ƒu ɖe lugbɔƒee ene.
13 Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion: for I will make thy horn iron, and I will make thy hoofs brass: and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will consecrate their gain to JEHOVAH, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
“Tsi tsitre, O Zion nyɔnuvi, eye nàtugu lu elabena mana wò dzo nanye gayibɔ, wò afɔkli nanye akɔbli eye nàgbã dukɔwo gudugudu.” Kɔ woƒe afunyinu ŋu na Yehowa kple woƒe kesinɔnuwo ŋu na anyigba katã ƒe Aƒetɔ la.
