Miche 4

1 Men nan dènye jou yo, li va vin rive ke mòn a SENYÈ a va vin etabli kon chèf a mòn yo. Li va vin leve anwo kolin yo, e pèp nasyon yo va kouri kon dlo pou rive kote l.

And at the last days the mountain of the Lord shall be manifest, established on the tops of the mountains, and it shall be exalted above the hills; and the peoples shall hasten to it.

2 Anpil nasyon va vin di: “Vini, annou monte sou mòn SENYÈ a, lakay Bondye Jacob la, pou L ka enstwi nou nan chemen Li yo e pou nou ka mache sou pa Li yo.” Paske depi nan Sion, lalwa va sòti e pawòl SENYÈ a va soti Jérusalem.

And many nations shall go, and say, Come, let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and they shall show us his way, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Sion shall go forth a law, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.

3 Konsa, Li va jije antre anpil pèp e pran desizyon pou anpil nasyon ki byen lwen. Yo va bat nepe yo pou fè yo tounen cha pou laboure latè yo, ak lans lagè yo pou fè yo tounen kwòk imondaj. Nasyon p ap leve nepe kont nasyon e p ap aprann fè lagè ankò.

And he shall judge among many peoples, and shall rebuke strong nations afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into sickles; and nation shall no more lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn to war any more.

4 Men yo va fè chak moun chita anba chan rezen pa yo, ak anba pye fig pa yo. Pèsòn p ap fè yo pè: paske bouch SENYÈ dèzame yo fin pale sa.

And every one shall rest under his vine, and every one under his fig tree; and there shall be none to alarm [them]: for the mouth of the Lord Almighty has spoken these [words].

5 Malgre tout pèp yo mache nan non dye pa yo, pou nou menm, nou va mache nan non SENYÈ Bondye nou an jis pou tout tan e pou tout tan.

For all [other] nations shall walk everyone in his own way, but we will walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.

6 “Nan jou sa a”, deklare SENYÈ a, “Mwen va rasanble moun bwate yo, e Mwen va reyini moun rejte yo, ak sa ke M te aflije yo.

In that day, says the Lord, I will gather her that is bruised, and will receive her that is cast out, and those whom I rejected.

7 Mwen va fè moun bwate yo vin yon retay, e moun rejte yo vin yon nasyon pwisan; Konsa, SENYÈ a va renye sou yo nan Mòn Sion depi koulye a rive jis pou tout tan.”

And I will make her that was bruised a remnant, and her that was rejected a mighty nation: and the Lord shall reign over them in mount Sion from henceforth, even for ever.

8 A nou menm, wo tou bann mouton an, mòn fi Sion an, sou ou menm, li va retounen. Wi, menm ansyen pouvwa a, wayòm nan de fi Jérusalem nan.

And you, dark tower of the flock, daughter of Sion, on you the dominion shall come and enter in, [even] the first kingdom from Babylon to the daughter of Jerusalem.

9 Alò, poukisa ou rele anmwey konsa? Èske pa gen wa pami nou? Èske konseye nou an fin peri? Kite gwo doulè a sezi nou kon yon fanm k ap pouse fè pitit?

And now, why have you known calamities? was there not a king to you? or has your counsel perished that pangs as of a woman in travail have seized upon you?

10 Se pou ou vin an doulè, doulè pou pouse fè pitit fi a Sion an, kon yon fanm ki ansent; paske koulye a, ou va sòti nan vil la pou rete nan chan, e ou va ale menm nan Babylone. La, ou va delivre. La, SENYÈ a va rachte ou, soti nan men ènmi ou yo.

Be in pain, and strengthen yourself, and draw near, O daughter of Sion, as a woman in travail: for now you shall go forth out of the city, and shall lodge in the plain, and shall reach even to Babylon: thence shall the Lord your God deliver you, and thence shall he redeem you out of the hand of your enemies.

11 Epi koulye a, gen anpil nasyon ki rasanble kont ou k ap di: “Kite li fin souye nèt, e kite zye nou wè dezi nou sou Sion.”

And now have many nations gathered against you, saying, We will rejoice, and our eyes shall look upon Sion.

12 Men yo pa konnen refleksyon a SENYÈ a, ni yo pa konprann bi Li a; paske Li te ranmase moun sa yo, kon pakèt sereyal yo, pou pote sou glasi vannen an.

But they know not the thought of the Lord, and have not understood his counsel: for he has gathered them as sheaves of the floor.

13 Leve pou bat jèm nan, O fi Sion an! Paske M ap fè kòn ou an vin yon kòn fè, e zago ou kon yon zago an bwonz. Ou va bat an mòso anpil pèp, pou ou kapab konsakre a SENYÈ a tout richès enjis pa yo, ke nou ranmase ak tout byen pa yo, bay SENYÈ tout latè a.

Arise, and thresh them, O daughter of Sion: for I will make your horns iron, and I will make your hoofs brass: and you shall utterly destroy many nations, and shall consecrate their abundance to the Lord, and their strength to the Lord of all the earth.
