Mika 5
1 O aʋawɔlawo ƒe du. Ƒo wò aʋawɔlawo nu ƒu elabena futɔwo ɖe to ɖe mí. Woatsɔ ati aƒo tome na Israel ƒe dziɖula.
Khathesi buthana ube ngamaviyo, wena ndodakazi yeviyo; yena ubekile ukuvimbezela ngakithi; ngenduku bazatshaya umahluleli wakoIsrayeli esihlathini.
2 “Ke wò, Betlehem, Efrata, togbɔ be èle sue le Yuda ƒe ƒomeawo dome hã la, mewòe ame si le nye dukɔ Israel kplɔ ge la ado tso nam. Ame si ƒe dzɔtsoƒe metsɔ o elabena eli tso keke blema ke.”
Kodwa wena, Bhethelehema Efratha, lanxa umncinyane phakathi kwezinkulungwane zakoJuda, uzaphuma kuwe eze kimi lowo ozakuba ngumbusi koIsrayeli; okuphuma kwakhe ngokwasendulo, ezinsukwini zaphakade.
3 Mawu aɖe asi le Israel ŋuti na eƒe futɔwo va se ɖe esime nyɔnu si fu le ɖuɖum la nadzi vi; eye Israelvi siwo susɔ ɖe aboyo me la natrɔ gbɔ akpe ɖe wo nɔviwo ŋuti anɔ woawo ŋutɔ ƒe anyigba dzi.
Ngakho uzabanikela, kuze kube yisikhathi sokuthi lowo ohelelwayo azale; khona insali yabafowabo izabuyela ebantwaneni bakoIsrayeli.
4 Atsi tsitre akplɔ eƒe alẽhawo le Yehowa ƒe ŋusẽ me kple Yehowa, eƒe Mawu la ƒe fianyenye me. Eƒe dukɔ la anɔ anyi le ŋutifafa me elabena woade bubu eƒe gãnyenye ŋuti le xexea me godoo.
Njalo uzakuma eluse emandleni eNkosi, ekuphakameni kwebizo leNkosi uNkulunkulu wakhe; njalo bazahlala; ngoba khathesi uzakuba mkhulu kuze kube semikhawulweni yomhlaba.
5 Eyae anye woƒe ŋutifafa. Ne Asiria ho aʋa va míaƒe anyigba dzi heto míaƒe mɔ sesẽwo me la, ekema míadɔ alẽkplɔla adre ɖe eŋuti kple kplɔla enyi be woakplɔ mí.
Njalo lumuntu uzakuba yikuthula; lapho umAsiriya engena elizweni lakithi, lalapho enyathela ezigodlweni zethu, kulapho sizamvusela abelusi abayisikhombisa, leziphathamandla zabantu eziyisificaminwembili.
6 Woaɖu Asiria dzi kple yi, eye woato eƒe agbowo me age ɖe Nimrɔd ƒe anyigba dzi. Aɖe mí tso Asiria ƒe asime nenye be wòho aʋa va dze míaƒe anyigba dzi be yeaɖo afɔ míaƒe liƒowo dzi.
Njalo bazalidla ilizwe leAsiriya ngenkemba, lelizwe likaNimrodi ezintubeni zalo. Ngalokho uzasophula kumAsiriya lapho engena elizweni lakithi, lalapho enyathela phakathi komngcele wethu.
7 Yakob ƒe ame mamlɛawo anɔ ame geɖewo dome abe ahũ si dza tso Yehowa gbɔ kple agbafie si dzana ɖe gbe dzi, eye melalaa amegbetɔ alo kpɔa amegbetɔ ƒe asinu o la ene.
Lensali kaJakobe izakuba phakathi kwezizwe ezinengi njengamazolo avela eNkosini, njengemikhizo phezu kotshani, okungalindeli muntu, lokungameleli bantwana babantu.
8 Yakob ƒe ame mamlɛawo anɔ dukɔwo kple ame geɖewo dome abe dzata le lã wɔadã siwo le ave me kple dzatavi le alẽhawo dome ene. Dzatavi si le yiyim la, enyea avuzi hevuvua nu eye ame aɖeke mate ŋu axɔ nu le esi o.
Lensali kaJakobe izakuba phakathi kwezizwe, phakathi kwabezizwe abanengi, njengesilwane phakathi kwezinyamazana zeganga, njengebhongo lesilwane phakathi kwemihlambi yezimvu; elithi lapho lisedlula, linyathelele phansi lidabudabule, kungekho ongophula.
9 Àkɔ wò alɔ dzi le dziɖuɖu me ɖe wò futɔwo ŋuti eye àɖu wò ketɔwo katã dzi.
Isandla sakho sizaphakama phezu kwabamelana lawe, njalo zonke izitha zakho zizaqunywa.
10 Yehowa be: “Le gbe ma gbe la, matsrɔ̃ miaƒe sɔwo eye magblẽ miaƒe tasiaɖamwo
Kuzakuthi-ke ngalolosuku, itsho iNkosi, ngiqume amabhiza akho aphume phakathi kwakho, ngichithe izinqola zakho.
11 Magbã wò duwo eye mamu wò mɔ sesẽwo aƒu anyi.
Njalo ngizaquma imizi yelizwe lakho, ngidilizele phansi zonke izinqaba zakho.
12 Matsi adzewɔwɔ nu le wò anyigba dzi eye màgasa gbesa azɔ o.
Njalo ngizaquma ubuthakathi esandleni sakho; kawusayikuba lezanuse.
13 Matɔ dzo wò aklamakpakpɛwo eye magbã wò legba siwo nèwɔ kple wò asiwo be màgade ta agu na wo o.
Njalo ngizaquma izithombe zakho ezibaziweyo lezinsika zakho eziyizithombe zisuke phakathi kwakho; kawusayikuphinda ukhothamele umsebenzi wezandla zakho.
14 Maho miaƒe aƒeli kɔkɔwo aƒu anyi eye magbã miaƒe duwo.
Njalo ngizasiphuna izixuku zakho ziphume phakathi kwakho, ngichithe imizi yakho.
15 Mlɔeba la, matrɔ nye dziku akɔ ɖe dukɔ siwo gbe toɖoɖom la dzi eye mabia hlɔ̃ wo.”
Njalo ngizakwenza impindiselo ngentukuthelo langolaka kuzo izizwe ezingalalelanga.
