< Mika 3 >

1 Sa’an nan na ce, “Ku kasa kunne, ku shugabannin Yaƙub, ku masu mulkin gidan Isra’ila. Ya kamata ku san shari’a,
And I said: Hear, O ye princes of Jacob, and ye chiefs of the house of Israel: Is it not your part to know judgment,
2 ku da kuke ƙin abu mai kyau kuke ƙaunar mugunta, ku da kuke feɗe mutanena kuke tuge nama daga ƙasusuwansu;
You that hate good, and love evil: that violently pluck off their skins from them, and their flesh from their bones?
3 ku da kuke cin naman mutanena, ku feɗe fatar jikinsu kuke kakkarya ƙasusuwansu, kuke yayyanka su gunduwa-gunduwa kamar naman da za a toya, kamar naman da za a sa a dafa.”
Who have eaten the flesh of my people, and have flayed their skin from off them: and have broken, and chopped their bones as for the kettle, and as flesh in the midst of the pot.
4 Sa’an nan za su kira ga Ubangiji, amma ba zai amsa musu ba. A wannan lokaci zai ɓoye fuskarsa daga gare su saboda irin muguntar da suka yi.
Then shall they cry to the Lord, and he will not hear them: and he will hide his face from them at that time, as they have behaved wickedly in their devices.
5 Ga abin da Ubangiji ya faɗa, “Game da annabawa masu ɓad da mutanena, in wani ya ciyar da su, sai su ce akwai ‘salama’ amma in bai ciyar da su ba, a shirye suke su kai masa hari.
Thus saith the Lord concerning the prophets that make my people err: that bite with their teeth, and preach peace: and if a man give not something into their mouth, they prepare war against him.
6 Saboda haka dare yana zuwa a bisanku, ba tare da wahayi ba, kuma duhu, ba tare da duba ba. Rana za tă fāɗi wa annabawa, yini kuma zai zama musu duhu.
Therefore night shall be to you instead of vision, and darkness to you instead of divination; and the sun shall go down upon the prophets, and the day shall be darkened over them.
7 Masu gani za su ji kunya, masu duba kuma za su ji taƙaici. Dukansu za su rufe fuskokinsu gama ba amsa daga Allah.”
And they shall be confounded that see visions, and the diviners shall be confounded: and they shall all cover their faces, because there is no answer of God.
8 Amma game da ni, ina cike da iko ta wurin Ruhun Ubangiji da kuma adalci da ƙarfi, don a sanar da Yaƙub laifofinsa, ga Isra’ila kuma zunubinsa.
But yet I am filled with the strength of the spirit of the Lord, with judgment, and power: to declare unto Jacob his wickedness, and to Israel his sin.
9 Ku ji wannan, ku shugabannin gidan Yaƙub, ku masu mulkin gidan Isra’ila, ku da kuke ƙyamar gaskiya, kuka karkatar duk abin da yake na gaskiya;
Hear this, ye princes of the house of Jacob, and ye judges of the house of Israel: you that abhor judgment, and pervert all that is right.
10 kuka gina Sihiyona ta wurin zub da jini, Urushalima kuma ta wurin mugunta.
You that build up Sion with blood, and Jerusalem with iniquity.
11 Hukunce-hukuncen shugabannin ƙasar na cin hanci ne, firistocinta kuma suna koyarwa don a biya su, annabawanta kuwa suna yin annabci don neman kuɗi. Duk da haka suna jingina a kan Ubangiji suna cewa, “Ba Ubangiji yana tare da mu ba? Ba bala’in da zai zo mana.”
Her princes have judged for bribes, and her priests have taught for hire, and her prophets divined for money: and they leaned upon the Lord, saying: Is not the Lord in the midst of us? no evil shall come upon us.
12 Don haka, saboda ku, za a nome Sihiyona kamar gona, Urushalima kuma ta zama tarin juji, tudun haikali kuwa zai zama kurmin ƙayayyuwa.
Therefore, because of you, Sion shall be ploughed as a field, and Jerusalem shall be as a heap of stones, and the mountain of the temple as the high places of the forests.
