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 gather yourself together, O daughter of troops, He has laid a siege against us, They strike [the] judge of Israel on the cheek with a rod.

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, Beth-Lehem Ephratah, Little to be among the chiefs of Judah! From you He comes forth to Me—to be ruler in Israel, And His comings forth [are] of old, From the days of antiquity.”

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 He gives them up until the time she who brings forth has brought forth, And the remnant of His brothers return to the sons 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 He has stood and delighted in the strength of YHWH, In the excellence of the Name of His God YHWH, And they have remained, For now He is great 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 this [One] has been peace. Asshur, when he comes into our land, And when he treads in our palaces, We have raised against him seven shepherds, And eight anointed of man.

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 have afflicted the land of Asshur with the sword, And the land of Nimrod at its openings, And He has delivered from Asshur when he comes into our land, And when he treads in our borders.

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 has been in the midst of many peoples, As dew from YHWH—as showers on the herb, That does not wait for man, nor stays for 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.

Indeed, the remnant of Jacob has been among nations, In the midst of many peoples, As a lion among beasts of a forest, As a young lion among ranks of a flock, Which if it has passed through, Has both trodden down and has torn, And there is no deliverer.

9 Za a ɗaga hannunka cikin nasara a kan abokan gābanka, za a hallaka maƙiyanka duka.

High is your hand above your adversaries, And all your enemies are cut off.

10 “A wannan rana,” in ji Ubangiji “Zan hallaka dawakanku daga cikinku, in kuma rurrushe kekunan yaƙinku.

“And it has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of YHWH, “I have cut off your horses from your midst, And I have destroyed your chariots,

11 Zan hallaka biranen ƙasarku in yi rugu-rugu da dukan katangunku.

And I have cut off the cities of your land, And I have thrown down all your fortresses,

12 Zan kawar da maitarku, ba za a ƙara yin sihiri ba.

And have cut off sorcerers out of your hand, And observers of clouds—you have none.

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 have cut off your carved images, And your standing-pillars out of your midst, And you do not bow yourself anymore To the work of your hands.

14 Zan tumɓuke daga gare ku ginshiƙan Asheranku in kuma rurrushe biranenku.

And I have plucked up your Asherim out of your midst, And I have destroyed your enemies.

15 Zan yi ramuwa cikin fushi da hasala a kan al’umman da ba su yi mini biyayya ba.”

And I have done vengeance in anger and in fury, With the nations who have not listened!”
