Mika 7
1 Baba nam! Elabena mele ko abe ame aɖe si le kutsetse dim vevie le ati dzi le esi nuŋeɣi nu va yi vɔ la ene. Elabena nyemekpɔ kutsetse ɖiɖi aɖeke agbe, aɖu, atsɔ atsi nye dɔwuame nu o.
Wo to me, for Y am maad as he that gaderith in heruest rasyns of grapis; there is no clustre for to ete; my soule desiride figis ripe bifore othere.
2 Alea kee ame nyuiwo hã vɔ le anyigba la dzi. Mate ŋu akpɔ ame ɖɔʋu ɖeka hɔ̃ɔ hã o. Ame sia ame le klalo be yeakɔ ʋu ɖi eye ame sia ame ɖo ɖɔ ɖi na nɔvia.
The hooli perischide fro erthe, and riytful is not in men; alle aspien, ether setten tresoun, in blood, a man huntith his brother to deth.
3 Woƒe asi eveawo bi ɖe nu vɔ̃ɖi wɔwɔ me. Dziɖula xɔa zãnu eye ʋɔnudrɔ̃la tsoa afia na ame si na zãnue. Kesinɔtɔwo ɖoa nu si dim wole; ale ame siawo blaa nu ɖekae hewɔna.
The yuel of her hondis thei seien good; the prince axith, and the domesman is in yeldyng; and a greet man spak the desir of his soule, and thei sturbliden togidere it.
4 Ame nyuitɔ si nàkpɔ le wo dome la le ko abe ŋu si tɔa ame ene eye woƒe nuteƒewɔla vɔ̃ɖi wu ŋukpɔtɔtɔ. Ke miaƒe gbetakpɔlawo ƒe ŋkeke la ɖo vɔ. Gbe si gbe Mawu ava asrã mi kpɔ la tu aƒe. Azɔ ɣeyiɣi si tɔtɔ aɖo wo dome la ɖo vɔ.
He that is best in hem, is as a paluyre; and he that is riytful, is as a thorn of hegge. The dai of thi biholdyng, thi visityng cometh, now schal be distriyng of hem.
5 Mègaxɔ wò aƒelika dzi se o. Mègaɖo dzi ɖe xɔ̃wò ŋu o. Nya ale si nàƒo nu le nyɔnu si le akɔwò nu la gɔ̃ hã gbɔ
Nyle ye bileue to a frend, and nyle ye truste in a duyk; fro hir that slepith in thi bosum, kepe thou closyngis of thi mouth.
6 elabena viŋutsu made bubu fofoa ŋu o; vinyɔnu adze aglã ɖe dadaa ŋu eye lɔ̃xoyɔvi atso ɖe lɔ̃xoa ŋu. Ame ƒe futɔwo atso eya ŋutɔ ƒe aƒe me.
For the sone doith wrong to the fadir, and the douyter schal rise ayens hir modir, and the wijf of the sone ayens the modir of hir hosebonde; the enemyes of a man ben the homeli, ether houshold meynee, of hym.
7 Ke nye la, mele ŋudzɔ le mɔ kpɔm na Yehowa. Mele lalam na Mawu, nye Ɖela. Ɛ̃, nye Mawu aɖo tom hã.
Forsothe Y schal biholde to the Lord, Y schal abide God my sauyour; the Lord my God schal here me.
8 O nye futɔ, dzi megadzɔ wò le nye anyidzedze ŋuti o; togbɔ be medze anyi hã la, magafɔ ɖe tsitre! Ne menɔ anyi ɖe viviti tsiɖitsiɖi me hã, Yehowa ŋutɔ anye nye kekeli.
Thou, myn enemye, be not glad on me, for Y felle doun, Y schal rise; whanne Y sitte in derknessis, the Lord is my liyt.
9 Esi meda vo ɖe Yehowa ŋuti ta la mabɔbɔ ɖe eƒe dɔmedzoe te va se ɖe esime wòadrɔ̃ nye nya eye wòatso afia nam, ekema akplɔm va kekeli me eye makpɔ eƒe dzɔdzɔenyenye.
Y schal bere wraththe of the Lord, for Y haue synned to hym, til he deme my cause, and make my doom; he schal lede out me in to liyt, Y schal se riytwisnesse of hym.
10 Ekema nye futɔ akpɔe eye ŋu akpee. Eya ame si bia be, “Afi ka Yehowa wò Mawu la le?” Azɔ mekpɔ eƒe anyidzedze kple nye ŋkuwo kple ale si woanyamae abe ba ene.
And myn enemye schal biholde me, and sche schal be hilid with confusioun, which seith to me, Where is thi Lord God? Myn iyen schulen se hir, now sche schal be in to defoulyng, as clei of stretis.
11 Ŋkeke si dzi woatu wò duwo la ava eye ŋkeke na wò liƒowo ƒe keke ɖe edzi gbɔna.
Dai schal come, that thi wallis be bildid; in that dai lawe schal be maad afer.
12 Ɣe ma ɣi la, amewo atso Asiria kple Egipte ƒe duwo me ava eye ɖewo atso Egipte va se ɖe keke Frat tɔsisi la nu. Gawu la, amewo atso atsiaƒu nu yi atsiaƒu nu, tso to dzi yi to dzi, ava kpɔ wò ɖa.
In that dai and Assur schal come til to thee, and `til to stronge citees, and fro stronge citees til to flood; and to see fro see, and to hil fro hil.
13 Ke anyigba aɖi gbɔlo le edzinɔlawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo ta.
And erthe schal be in to desolacioun for her dwelleris, and for fruyt of the thouytis of hem.
14 O Yehowa, va kplɔ wò dukɔ kple wò atizɔti, alẽha si nye wò domenyinu; alẽha si nɔ eɖokui si le avewo me kple lãnyiƒe damawo dzi. Na woaɖu gbe damawo le Basan kple Gilead abe tsã ene.
Fede thou thi puple in thi yerde, the floc of thin eritage, that dwellen aloone in wielde wode; in the myddil of Carmel thei schulen be fed of Basan and of Galaad,
15 “Abe ale si wònɔ le ŋkeke siwo me nèdo go tso Egipte ene la, mafia wo nye nukunuwo.”
bi elde daies, bi daies of thi goyng out of the lond of Egipt. Y schal schewe to hym wondurful thingis;
16 Dukɔwo akpɔe eye ŋukpe alé wo elabena woƒe ŋusẽwo katã nu ayi. Woatsɔ woƒe asiwo aɖo nu eye woƒe towo atsi.
hethene men schulen se, and thei schulen be confoundid on al her strengthe; thei schulen putte hondis on her mouth, the eris of hem schulen be deef;
17 Woaɖu ʋuʋudedi abe da kple nu gbagbe siwo tana le anyigba la ene. Woado le woƒe dowo me kple vɔvɔ̃, atrɔ ɖe Yehowa, míaƒe Mawu la ŋu eye woavɔ̃ miawo hã.
thei schulen licke dust as a serpent; as crepynge thingis of erthe thei schulen be disturblid of her housis; thei schulen not desire oure Lord God, and thei schulen drede thee.
18 Afi ka woagakpɔ Mawu bubu le wòanɔ abe wò si tsɔa wò domenyinu mamlɛawo ƒe nu vɔ̃wo kple dzidadawo kena la ene? Mèdoa dɔmedzoe ɖikaa o, ke boŋ èkpɔa dzidzɔ le amenuveve ŋuti.
God, who is lijk thee, that doist awei wickidnesse, and berist ouer the synne of relifs of thin eritage? He shal no more sende in his stronge veniaunce, for he is willynge merci; he schal turne ayen,
19 Àgakpɔ nublanui na mí, atiti afɔ ɖe míaƒe nu vɔ̃wo dzi eye àtsɔ míaƒe dzidadawo katã aƒu gbe ɖe atsiaƒu ƒe gogloƒe ke!
and haue merci on vs. He schal put doun oure wickidnessis, and schal caste fer in to depnesse of the see alle oure synnes.
20 Àwɔ nuteƒe na Yakob, eye àkpɔ nublanui na Abraham abe ale si nèka atam na mía fofowo tso blema ke ene.
Thou schalt yyue treuthe to Jacob, merci to Abraham, whiche thou sworist to oure fadris fro elde daies.
