< 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.
Nʼụbọchị ikpeazụ, ugwu nke ụlọnsọ ukwu Onyenwe anyị, ga-abụ nke eguzobere dịka ugwu dị elu karịa ugwu niile, a ga-ebuli ya elu karịa ugwu nta niile, ndị dị iche iche ga-eruba nʼime ya dịka iyi.
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.
Ọtụtụ mba ga-abịa ma sịkwa, “Bịanụ, ka anyị rigoruo ugwu Onyenwe anyị, ka anyị gaa nʼụlọnsọ ukwu Chineke nke Jekọb. Ọ ga-akụziri anyị ụzọ ya niile, ka anyị nwe ike jee ije nʼokporoụzọ ya niile.” Iwu ga-esi na Zayọn pụta, okwu Onyenwe anyị ga-esitekwa na Jerusalem pụta.
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.
Ọ ga-ekpe ikpe dị nʼetiti ndị dị iche iche, doziekwa esemokwu dị nʼetiti mba na mba ibe ya ruo ebe dị anya. Ha ga-akpụgharịkwa mma agha ha niile, mee ka ha bụrụ mma oge, kpụgharịkwa ùbe ha ka ha ghọọ mma ịkwacha osisi. Mba ọbụla agakwaghị ebuli mma agha megide mba ọzọ, maọbụ zụọ onwe ha nʼịlụ agha ọzọ.
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.
Onye ọbụla ga-anọdụrụ onwe ya nʼokpuru vaịnị na nʼokpuru osisi fiig ya, nʼihi na o nweghị onye ga-eme ka ha tụọ egwu ọzọ. Onyenwe anyị, Onye pụrụ ime ihe niile ekwuola ya.
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.
Mba dị iche iche ga-agagharị nke ọbụla nʼaha chi ya, ma anyị onwe anyị ga na-aga nʼaha Onyenwe anyị, bụ Chineke anyị ruo mgbe niile ebighị ebi.
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.
“Nʼụbọchị ahụ,” otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara, “aga m achịkọta ndị ngwụrọ, chịkọtaa ndị ahụ niile e mere ka ha biri na mba ọzọ, na ndị ahụ niile m mere ka ha ruo ụjụ.
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.
Aga m eme ka ndị ngwụrọ ahụ ghọọ ndị fọdụrụ ndụ, meekwaa ka ndị ahụ a chụpụrụ achụpụ ghọọ mba dị ike. Onyenwe anyị ga-esi nʼugwu Zayọn chịa ha site nʼoge ahụ ruo mgbe ebighị ebi.
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.
Ma gị, ebe nche e wuliri elu maka igwe atụrụ, ugwu nke nwaada Zayọn, ọchịchị a na-achị na mbụ ga-adịghachikwara gị; bụ ọchịchị nke dịrị nwaada Jerusalem.”
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?
Gịnị mere i ji na-akwasị akwa ike? Ọ bụ na i nweghị eze? Onye ndụmọdụ gị ọ nwụọla nke mere na ihe ụfụ jidere gị dịka nwanyị ime na-eme?
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.
Susie ude ike, gị nwaada Zayọn, dịka ịsụ ude nke nwanyị ime na-eme, nʼihi na unu aghaghị ịhapụ obodo a jee biri nʼọhịa. Unu aghaghị ịga Babilọn, nʼihi na ọ bụ nʼebe ahụ ka a ga-esi napụta unu. Ebe ahụ ka Onyenwe anyị ga-agbapụta unu site nʼaka ndị iro unu.
11 And now, gathered against thee have been many nations, who are saying: 'Let her be defiled, and our eyes look on Zion.'
Ugbu a, ọtụtụ mba ezukọọla imegide gị; na-asị, “Ka e merụọ ya ka anya anyị ṅụọ Zayọn.”
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.
Ma ha amaghị ihe bụ uche Onyenwe anyị, ha aghọtakwaghị nzube ya, na ọ chịkọtala ha dịka ukwu ọka, na-ebuga ha nʼebe ịzọcha ọka.
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!
“Bilie, zọchaa, gị nwaada Zayọn, nʼihi na aga m enye gị mpi igwe. Aga m enyekwa gị ụkwụ ọla bronz, ị ga-etijisikwa ọtụtụ mba. Uru ha niile, nke ha nwetara nʼụzọ na-ezighị ezi, ka ị ga-enye Onyenwe anyị. Akụnụba ha ka ị ga-enyekwa Chineke nwe ụwa niile.”
