< Micah 5 >

1 Now thou, douyter of a theef, schalt be distried; thei puttiden on vs bisegyng, in a yerde thei schulen smyte the cheke of the iuge of Israel.
Sasa njoni pamoja katika safu ya kupigana, binti wa maaskari; maaskari wameuzingira mji, kwa ufito watampiga mwamuzi wa Israeli kwenye shavu.
2 And thou, Bethleem Effrata, art litil in the thousyndis of Juda; he that is the lordli gouernour in Israel, schal go out of thee to me; and the goyng out of hym is fro bigynnyng, fro daies of euerlastyngnesse.
Lakini wewe, Bethlehemu Efrata, hata kama uko mdogo miongoni mwa koo za Yuda, kutoka kweko mmoja atakuja kwangu kutawala Israeli, ambaye mwanzo wake ni kutoka nyakati za kale, toka milele.
3 For this thing he shal yyue hem til to the tyme in which the trauelinge of child schal bere child, and the relifs of hise britheren schulen be conuertid to the sones of Israel.
Kwa hiyo Mungu atawapa, hata mda wa yeye aliye katika uchungu kuzaa mtoto, na mabaki ya ndugu zake yatawarudia wana wa Israeli.
4 And he schal stonde, and schal fede in the strengthe of the Lord, in the heiythe of the name of his Lord God; and thei schulen be conuertid, for now he schal be magnefied til to the endis of al erthe.
Atasimama na kuchunga kundi lake kwa nguvu za Yahwe, kwa ukuu wa enzi ya jina la Yahwe Mungu wake. Watabaki, kwa kuwa atakuwa mashuhuri hata mwisho wa dunia.
5 And this schal be pees, whanne Assirius schal come in to oure lond, and whanne he schal trede in oure housis; and we schulen reise on hym seuene scheepherdis, and eiyte primatis men, ether the firste in dignytee.
Atakuwa amani yetu. Wakati Waashuru watakapokuja kwenye nchi yetu, wakati wakitembea dhidi ya boma yetu, kisha kisha tutainuka juu yao wachungaji saba na viongozi nane juu ya watu.
6 And thei schulen frete the lond of Assur bi swerd, and the lond of Nembroth bi speris of hym; and he schal delyuere vs fro Assur, whanne he schal come in to oure lond, and whanne he schal trede in oure coostis.
Watachunga nchi ya Ashuru kwa upanga, na nchi ya Nimrodi katika malango yake. Atatuokoa kutoka kwa Waashuru, watakapokuja kwenye nchi yetu, watakapoingia kwenye mipaka yetu.
7 And relifs of Jacob schulen be in the myddil of many puplis, as dew of the Lord, and as dropis on erbe, whiche abidith not man, and schal not abide sones of men.
Mabaki ya Yakobo yatakuwa katika kabila za watu wengi, kama umande utokao kwa Yahwe, kama manyunyu kwenye majani, ambayo hayamsubiri mtu, na hayawasubiri watoto wa mwanadamu.
8 And relifs of Jacob schulen be in hethene men, in the myddil of many puplis, as a lioun in beestis of the woodis, and as a whelpe of a lioun rorynge in flockis of scheep; and whanne he passith, and defoulith, and takith, there is not that schal delyuere.
Mabaki ya Yakobo yatakuwa miongoni mwa mataifa, miongoni mwa watu wengi, kama simba katikati ya kundi la kondoo. wakati akipita katikati yao, atawakanyaga juu yao na kuwachachana kuwa vipande vipande, na hakutakuwa na mtu wa kuwaokoa.
9 And thin hond schal be reisid on thin enemyes, and alle thin enemyes schulen perische.
Mkono wako utainuliwa dhidi ya maadui zako, na utawaharibu.
10 And it schal be, in that dai, seith the Lord, Y schal take awei thin horsis fro the myddil of thee, and Y schal distrie thi foure horsid cartis.
“Itatokea siku hiyo,” asema Yahwe, “kwamba nitawaharibu farasi wako kutoka miongoni mwenu na nitayavunja magari yako ya farasi.
11 And Y schal leese the citees of thi lond, and Y schal distrie alle thi strengthis;
Nitaiharibu miji katika nchi yako na kuzingusha ngome zako zote.
12 and Y schal do awei witchecraftis fro thin hond, and dyuynaciouns schulen not be in thee.
Nitauharibu uchawi kwenye mkono wako, na hakutakuwa na waaguzi tena.
13 And Y schal make for to perische thi `grauun ymagis, and Y schal breke togidere fro the myddil of thee thin ymagis, and thou schalt no more worschipe the werkis of thin hondis.
Nitaziaharibu sanamu zako za pango na nguzo za mawe kutoka miongoni mwako. Hautaabudu tena ustadi wa mikono yako.
14 And Y schal drawe out of the middis of thee thi woodis, and Y schal al to-breke thi citees.
Nitazin'goa nguzo zako za Ashera kutoka miongoni mwenu, na nitaiharibu miji yenu.
15 And Y schal make in woodnesse and indignacioun veniaunce in alle folkis, whiche herden not.
Nitalipiza kisasi kwa hasira na ghadhabu juu ya mataifa ambayo hayakusikiliza.”
