Mikias 1
1 Daytoy ti sao ni Yahweh nga immay kenni Mikias a taga-Moreset kadagiti al-aldaw da Jotam, Ahaz ken Hezekias, nga ar-ari ti Juda, ti sao a naimatanganna maipapan iti Samaria ken Jerusalem.
The word of the Lord that came to Micah the Morashthite in the days of Jotham, Achaz, [and] Hezekiah, the kings of Judah, which he foresaw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Dumngegkayo, dakayo amin a tattao. Dumngegka, O daga, ken ti isu-amin nga adda kenka. Agsaksi koma ti Apo a ni Yahweh a maibusor kenka, ti Apo manipud iti nasantoan a templona.
Hear, ye people, altogether; listen, O earth, with all that filleth it: and let the Lord Eternal be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 Kitaenyo, rummuar ni Yahweh iti ayanna; bumaba isuna ket rumekenna dagiti pagdaydayawan dagiti pagano iti rabaw ti daga.
For, behold, the Lord cometh forth out of his residence; and he will come down, and will step along upon the high places of the earth.
4 Malunag dagiti bantay iti babaenna; marunaw dagiti turod a kasla allid iti sangoanan ti apuy, kasla danum a naibuyat iti derraas.
And the mountains shall melt beneath him, and the valleys shall cleave in twain, like wax [melteth] before the fire, like water poured out on a declivity.
5 Gapu amin dagitoy iti panagsukir ni Jacob, ken gapu kadagiti basol ti balay ti Israel. Ania ti makagapu iti panagsukir ni Jacob? Saan kadi a ti Samaria? Ania ti makagapu nga adda dagiti lugar a pagdaydayawan idiay Juda? Saan kadi a ti Jerusalem?
For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. Who caused the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and who caused the high-places of Judah? is it not Jerusalem?
6 “Pagbalinekto ti Samaria a gabsuon dagiti nadadael iti tay-ak, a kas iti lugar a pagmulaan laeng iti ubas. Paitulidkonto dagiti bato ti pasdekna idiay tanap; pagparangekto dagiti pundasionna.
Therefore will I change Samaria into stone-heaps on the field, into vineyard plantations: and I will hurl down into the valley her stones, and her foundations will I lay open.
7 Maburakto dagiti amin a kinitikitan a ladawanna, ken mapuoranto dagiti amin a sagsagut kenkuana. Dadaelekto dagiti amin a didiosenna. Agsipud ta inurnongna dagitoy a sagut iti panagbalangkantisna, ket maisublidanto a kas tangdan ti maysa a balangkantis.”
And all her graven images shall he beaten to pieces, and all her wages of sin shall be burnt with the fire, and all her idols will I make desolate; for from harlot's wages she gathered them, and for harlot's wages shall they be used again.
8 Daytoyto ti makagapu iti panagdung-aw ken panagladingitko; magnaak a sakasaka ken lamolamo. Agtaguobak a kas iti atap nga aso ken agdung-awak a kas iti kullaaw.
For this will I lament and wail; I will go confused and naked: I will make a lament like the crocodiles, and mourning like the ostriches.
9 Ngamin, saanen a maagasan dagiti sugatna, ta nakagtengdan idiay Juda. Nakadanondan iti ruangan dagiti tattaok, iti Jerusalem.
For her wounds arc incurable; for [the evil] is come even unto Judah; [the enemy] hath reached as far as the gate of my people, even up to Jerusalem.
10 Saanyo nga ibagbaga idiay Gat ti maipapan iti daytoy; saankayo nga agsangit. Agtulidtulidak iti katapukan idiay Bet-Afra.
Tell it not at Gath, weep ye not loudly [there]: in Bethle'aphrah roll thyself in the dust.
11 Lumabaskayo, agnanaed iti Sapir, a silalamolamo ken nakababain. Saan a rummuar dagiti agnanaed iti Zaanan. Agdungdung-aw ti Bet-Ezel ta awanen ti salaknibda.
Pass ye away, ye inhabitants of Shaphir, having your shame laid bare: the inhabitress of Zaanan cometh not forth [any more]; the mourning of Beth-haezel taketh from you its halting place.
12 Ta agur-uray a sigagagar dagiti agnanaed iti Marot iti naimbag a damag, gapu ta indissuoren ni Yahweh ti didigra kadagiti ruangan ti Jerusalem.
For the inhabitress of Maroth is grieved for the [lost] good; because evil came down from the Lord unto the gate of Jerusalem.
13 Dakayo nga agnanaed iti Lakis, ipakoyo dagiti karuahe iti bunggoy dagiti kabalioyo. O Lakis, sika ti nangruggian iti basol ti anak a babai ti Sion, ta nasarakan kenka dagiti panagsalungasing ti Israel.
Bind the chariot to the swift horses, O inhabitress of Lachish: the beginning of sin was she to the daughter of Zion; for in thee were found the transgressions of Israel.
14 Isu a mangtedkanto iti sagut a pammakada iti Moreset-Gat; upayento ti ili ti Akzib dagiti ari ti Israel.
Therefore shalt thou have to give presents to Moresheth-gath: the houses of Achzib shall become a deception to the kings of Israel.
15 Dakayo nga agnanaed iti Maresa, iyegkonto kadakayo ti mangtagikua kadakayo. Mapanto aglemmeng dagiti mangidadaulo ti Israel iti kueba ti Adullam.
Yet will I bring an [enemy as] heir unto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah: as far as 'Adullam shall withdraw the glory of Israel.
16 Juda, kuskosam ta ulom ken pukisam ta buokmo para kadagiti annakmo a pakaay-ayoam. Agpakalboka a kas iti agila, ta maipanawto a kas balud dagiti annakmo.
Make thyself bald, and cut off thy hair for the children of thy delight; enlarge thy baldness like the eagle; because they are gone into exile from thee.
