< Mika 3 >
1 Eye megblɔ be: “Miɖo to, mi Yakob ƒe kplɔlawo. Mi ame siwo le Israel ƒe aƒe dzi ɖum. Miawoe wòdze be mianya nyui tso vɔ̃ gbɔ
And Y seide, Ye princis of Jacob, and duykis of the hous of Israel, here. Whether it be not youre for to knowe doom, whiche haten good,
2 gake miawo boŋue gbe nu le nyui gbɔ eye mielɔ̃ vɔ̃. Mievuvu ayi le nye amewo ŋu ye mievuvu lã le woƒe ƒuwo ŋuti.
and louen yuele? Whiche violentli taken awei the skynnes of hem fro aboue hem, and the fleisch of hem fro aboue the bonys of hem.
3 Mieɖu nye amewo katã ƒe lã, vuvu ayi le wo ŋuti, gbã ƒu ɖe lãme na wo eye miefli wo abe ale si woflia adelã dea zee ene.”
Whiche eeten the fleisch of my puple, and hiliden the skyn of hem fro aboue; and broken togidere the boonys of hem, and kittiden togidere as in a cawdroun, and as fleisch in the myddil of a pot.
4 Ekema woado ɣli ayɔ Yehowa gake matɔ na wo o eye aɣla eƒe mo ɖe wo ɖe nu vɔ̃ si wowɔ la ta.
Thanne thei schulen crie to the Lord, and he schal not here hem; and he schal hide hise face fro hem in that tyme, as thei diden wickidli in her fyndingis.
5 Ale Yehowa gblɔe nye esi: “Mi nyagblɔɖila siwo kplɔa nye amewo tranae; ne ame aɖe na nu wo, woɖu la, wodoa ŋutifafa nɛ; ke ne ame aɖe mena nu wo o la, wohoa aʋa ɖe eŋuti.
The Lord God seith these thingis on the profetis that disseyuen my puple, and biten with her teeth, and prechen pees; and if ony man yyueth not in the mouth of hem ony thing, thei halewen batel on hym.
6 Zã ado aƒo xlã mi eye miegale ŋutega kpɔ ge o; viviti atsyɔ mia dzi eye Mawu ƒe gbe mava na mi o. Ɣe aɖo to ɖe mia dzi eye ŋkeke ado viviti na mi.
Therfor niyt schal be to you for visioun, or profesie, and derknessis to you for dyuynacioun; and sunne schal go doun on the profetis, and the dai schal be maad derk on hem.
7 Miaƒe nukpɔlawo aɖu ŋukpe eye woado ŋukpe miaƒe nukalawo. Woatsɔ asi atsyɔ mo elabena gbe aɖeke metso Mawu gbɔ na wo o.”
And thei schulen be confoundid that seen visiouns, and dyuynours schulen be confoundid, and alle schulen hile her cheris, for it is not the answer of God.
8 Ke nye la, ŋusẽ yɔ menye taŋtaŋ, Yehowa ƒe Gbɔgbɔ le dzinye eya ta matsɔ dzɔdzɔenyenye kple ŋusẽ aɖe gbeƒã Yakob ƒe nu tovowo wɔwɔ kple Israel ƒe nu vɔ̃.
Netheles Y am fillid with strengthe of Spirit of the Lord, and in doom and vertu, that Y schewe to Jacob his greet trespas, and to Israel his synne.
9 Miɖo tom, mi Yakob ƒe aƒe ƒe kplɔlawo kple mi ame siwo le Israel ƒe aƒe dzi ɖum. Mi ame siwo gbe nu le dzɔdzɔenyenye gbɔ eye mietrɔa gbo nu siwo katã le dzɔdzɔe.
Here these thingis, ye princes of the hous of Jacob, and domesmen of the hous of Israel, whiche wlaten dom, and peruerten alle riyt thingis;
10 Mi ame siwo tu Zion ɖe ʋukɔkɔɖeanyi dzi kple Yerusalem ɖe vɔ̃ɖinyenye dzi.
whiche bilden Sion in bloodis, and Jerusalem in wickidnesse.
11 Miaƒe kplɔlawo xɔa zãnu hafi drɔ̃a ʋɔnu. Miaƒe nunɔlawo fiaa nu ɖe ga si woaxɔ ta eye miaƒe Nyagblɔɖilawo gblɔa nya ɖi ɖe ga ta gake woziɔna ɖe Yehowa ŋu gblɔna be: “Yehowa le mia dome eya ta vɔ̃ aɖeke mawɔ mí o.”
Princes therof demyden for yiftis, and prestis therof tauyten for hire, and profetis therof dyuyneden for money; and on the Lord thei restiden, and seiden, Whether the Lord is not in the myddil of us? yuelis schulen not come on vs.
12 Miawo ta woaŋlɔ Zion abe agble ene, Yerusalem azu glikpo gã ɖeka eye to si dzi gbedoxɔ le la azu togbɛ si zu ave.
For this thing bi cause of you, Sion as a feeld schal be erid; and Jerusalem schal be as an heep of stoonys, and the hil of the temple schal be in to hiye thingis of woodis.
