< Micah 4 >

1 And it hath come to pass, In the latter end of the days, The mount of the house of Jehovah Is established above the top of the mounts, And it hath been lifted up above the hills, And flowed unto it have peoples.
E ndalo giko got mogerie hekalu mar Jehova Nyasaye nobed gi teko e kind gode duto molwore, kendo ibiro tingʼe malo moyombo gode duto kendo ogendini duto nobi ma pongʼe.
2 And gone have many nations and said, Come and we go up to the mount of Jehovah, And unto the house of the God of Jacob, And He doth teach us of His ways, And we do walk in His paths, For from Zion doth go forth a law, And a word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
Ogendini mangʼeny nobi kawacho niya, “Biuru wadhi e got mar Jehova Nyasaye, e od Nyasach Jakobo. Enopuonjwa wechene mondo wawuothie e yorene.” Chik nowuog Sayun, kendo wach Jehova Nyasaye nowuog koa Jerusalem.
3 And He hath judged between many peoples, And given a decision to mighty nations afar off, They have beaten their swords to ploughshares, And their spears to pruning-hooks, Nation lifteth not up sword unto nation, Nor do they learn war any more.
Obiro ngʼado bura e kind ogendini kendo nokel kwe e kind pinje marateke man machiegni kod mago man mabor. Ginithedh ligengligi olokre kwe mag pur kendo tongegi ginithedhi olokre pende keyo. Onge piny mano kedi gi nyawadgi gi ligangla bende ok ginichak gipuonjre ne lweny kendo.
4 And they have sat each under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And there is none troubling, For the mouth of Jehovah of Hosts hath spoken.
Ngʼato ka ngʼato nobed e bwo yiende owuon mar mzabibu kendo e bwo yiende owuon mar ngʼowu, kendo onge ngʼama nochak omigi luoro nikech Jehova Nyasaye Maratego osewacho.
5 For all the peoples do walk, Each in the name of its god — and we, We do walk in the name of Jehovah our God, To the age and for ever.
Kata obedo ni ogendini mamoko duto nyalo wuotho e nying nyisechegi, wan to wabiro wuotho e nying Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachwa manyaka chiengʼ.
6 In that day — an affirmation of Jehovah, I do gather the halting one, And the driven away one I bring together, And she whom I have afflicted.
Jehova Nyasaye wacho kama, “E odiechiengno anachok rongʼonde, gi joma oter e twech kod joma asekelo negi lit.
7 And I have set the halting for a remnant, And the far-off for a mighty nation, And reigned hath Jehovah over them in mount Zion, From henceforth, and unto the age.
Abiro miyo rongʼode dongʼ kangima, to joma odhi e twech nobed oganda motegno, Jehova Nyasaye noritgi e got mar Sayun chakre odiechiengno nyaka chiengʼ.
8 And thou, O tower of Eder, Fort of the daughter of Zion, unto thee it cometh, Yea, come in hath the former rule, The kingdom to the daughter of Jerusalem.
Yaye, in kama oger motingʼore mar rito rombe, in ohinga mar Sayun, ibiro duogni duongʼ mari machon; nyar Jerusalem nobed jatelo.”
9 Now, why dost thou shout aloud? A king — is there none in thee? Hath thy counsellor perished, That taken hold of thee hath pain as a travailing woman?
Angʼo momiyo koro iywak matek kamano, ionge gi ruoth koso? Dipo ka jangʼadni rieko osetho, marem chami mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo?
10 Be pained, and bring forth, O daughter of Zion, As a travailing woman, For now, thou goest forth from the city, And thou hast dwelt in the field, And thou hast gone unto Babylon, There thou art delivered, There redeem thee doth Jehovah from the hand of thine enemies.
Ywari gi rem, yaye Nyar Sayun, mana ka dhako mamuoch kayo, nikech koro ochuni ni nyaka iwe dala maduongʼ mondo idhi idagie pap nono. Ibiro dhi Babulon kendo kuno ema nokonyie. Jehova Nyasaye noresi kuno kogoli e lwet wasiki.
11 And now, gathered against thee have been many nations, who are saying: 'Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.'
To koro ogendini mangʼeny osechokore mondo giked kodi. Giwacho niya, “Wamiye obed mogak, wagouru siboi ni Sayun.”
12 They have not known the thoughts of Jehovah, Nor have they understood His counsel, For He hath gathered them as a sheaf [into] a threshing-floor.
To gikia pach Jehova Nyasaye. Ok giwinj chenrone, En ema ochokogi ka cham midino e dier ot.
13 Arise, and thresh, O daughter of Zion, For thy horn I make iron, And thy hoofs I make brass, And thou hast beaten small many peoples, And I have devoted to Jehovah their gain, And their wealth to the Lord of the whole earth!
“Chungi idin cham, yaye nyar Sayun, nikech abiro sidhoni tunge mag chuma. Abiro rwakoni ombongʼ tielo mag nyinyo kendo ibiro toyo matindo tindo pinje mangʼeny.” Mwandu magiseyudo e yore mobam ubiro walone Jehova Nyasaye, mwandugi nochiwne Ruoth Nyasaye mar piny duto.
