< Mika 5 >
1 Ki tattara sojojinki, ya ke birnin mayaƙa, gama an kewaye mu da yaƙi. Za su bugi kumatun mai mulkin Isra’ila da sandar ƙarfe.
Now shall the daughter [of Sion] be completely hedged in: he has laid siege against us: they shall strike the tribes of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
2 “Amma ke, Betlehem ta Efrata, ko da yake ke ƙarama ce daga cikin zuriyarki a Yahuda, daga cikinki wani zai zo domina wanda zai yi mulkin Isra’ila, wanda asalinsa tun fil azal ne.”
And you, Bethleem, house of Ephratha, are few in number to be [reckoned] among the thousands of Juda; [yet] out of you shall one come forth to me, to be a ruler of Israel; and his goings forth were from the beginning, [even] from eternity.
3 Saboda haka za a yashe Isra’ila har sai wadda take naƙuda ta haihu sauran’yan’uwansa kuma sun dawo su haɗu da Isra’ilawa.
Therefore shall he appoint them [to wait] till the time of her that travails: she shall bring forth, and [then] the remnant of their brethren shall return to the children of Israel.
4 Zai tsaya yă yi kiwon garkensa da ƙarfin Ubangiji, cikin girman sunan Ubangiji Allahnsa. Za su kuma zauna lafiya, gama girmansa za tă kai har ƙarshen duniya.
And the Lord shall stand, and see, and feed his flock with power, and they shall dwell in the glory of the name of the Lord their God: for now shall they be magnified to the ends of the earth.
5 Zai kuma zama salamarsu. Sa’ad da Assuriyawa suka kawo wa ƙasarmu hari suka tattake kagarunmu, za mu tā da makiyaya bakwai, har ma shugabannin mutane takwas su yi gāba da su.
And she shall have peace when Assur shall come into your land, and when he shall come up upon your country; and there shall be raised up against him seven shepherds, and eight attacks of men.
6 Za su yi mulkin ƙasar Assuriya da takobi, ƙasar Nimrod kuma da zaran takobi. Zai cece mu daga hannun Assuriyawa sa’ad da suka kawo wa ƙasarmu hari suka kuma tattake zuwa cikin iyakokinmu.
And they shall tend the Assyrian with a sword, and the land of Nebrod with her trench: and he shall deliver [you] from the Assyrian, when he shall come upon your land, and when he shall invade your coasts.
7 Raguwar Yaƙub za tă kasance a tsakiyar mutane masu yawa kamar raɓa daga Ubangiji, kamar yayyafi a kan ciyawa, wanda ba ya jiran mutum ko kuma yă dakata wa ɗan adam.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many peoples, as dew falling from the Lord, and as lambs on the grass; that none may assemble nor resist among the sons of men.
8 Raguwar Yaƙub za tă kasance tare da al’ummai, a cikin mutane masu yawa, kamar zaki a cikin sauran namun jeji, kamar ɗan zaki cikin garken tumaki, wanda yake tattaka yă kuma yi kaca-kaca da su sa’ad da yake ratsa a cikinsu, ba kuwa wanda zai cece su.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many nations, as a lion in the forest among cattle, and as a [lion's] whelp among the flocks of sheep, even as when he goes through, and selects, and carries off [his prey], and there is none to deliver.
9 Za a ɗaga hannunka cikin nasara a kan abokan gābanka, za a hallaka maƙiyanka duka.
Your hand shall be lifted up against them that afflict you, and all your enemies shall be utterly destroyed.
10 “A wannan rana,” in ji Ubangiji “Zan hallaka dawakanku daga cikinku, in kuma rurrushe kekunan yaƙinku.
And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord, [that] I will utterly destroy the horses out of the midst of you, and destroy your chariots;
11 Zan hallaka biranen ƙasarku in yi rugu-rugu da dukan katangunku.
and I will utterly destroy the cities of your land, and demolish all your strongholds:
12 Zan kawar da maitarku, ba za a ƙara yin sihiri ba.
and I will utterly destroy your sorceries out of your hands; and there shall be no soothsayers in you.
13 Zan sassare dukan gumakan da kuka sassaƙa da keɓaɓɓun duwatsunku a cikinku, nan gaba ba za ku ƙara rusuna wa aikin hannuwanku ba.
And I will utterly destroy your graven images, and your statues out of the midst of you; and you shall never any more worship the works of your hands.
14 Zan tumɓuke daga gare ku ginshiƙan Asheranku in kuma rurrushe biranenku.
And I will cut off the groves out of the midst of you, and I will abolish your cities.
15 Zan yi ramuwa cikin fushi da hasala a kan al’umman da ba su yi mini biyayya ba.”
and I will execute vengeance on the heathen in anger and wrath, because they listened not.
