Mikias 2
1 Asi pay dagiti agpanggep iti kinadakes, dagiti adda iti pagiddaanda nga agpangpanggep nga agaramid iti dakes. Aramidenda dagitoy iti agsapa gapu ta addaanda iti pannakabael.
Woe to those that devise wickedness, and resolve on evil upon their couches! by the first light of the morning they execute it, if they have it in the power of their hand.
2 Tarigagayanda dagiti talon ket agawenda dagitoy; tarigagayanda dagiti balay ket alaenda dagitoy. Irurumenda ti tao ken ti balayna, ti tao ken ti tawidna.
And they covet fields, and rob them; and houses, and take them away: so they defraud the master and his house, and the man and his heritage.
3 Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: “Kitaem, mangiyegak iti didigra iti daytoy a puli, ket saankayonto a makalisi. Saankayonton a magna a sipapalangguad, ta dakesto dayta a tiempo.
Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Behold, I will devise against this family an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; nor shall ye go erect; for it is an evil time.
4 Iti dayta nga aldaw, agkantanto dagiti kabusoryo iti maipapan kadakayo, ket agdung-awkayonto nga addaan panagasug. Kantaendanto, 'Dakami nga Israelita, nadadaelkamin a naminpinsan; binaliwanen ni Yahweh ti territoryo dagiti tattaok. Alaenna kadi met daytoy kaniak? Imbunongna dagiti talonmi kadagiti mangliliput!”'
On that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a mournful lamentation, and say, “We are utterly wasted: the portion of my people hath he exchanged; how hath he removed it from me! instead of restoring [them to us] he divideth our fields.”
5 Ngarud, dakayo a nababaknang, awanto ti kaputotanyo nga umawat iti daga a kas bingayna iti pannakaibunong ti daga iti gimong ni Yahweh.
Therefore shalt thou have none that shall draw the [measuring] cord in [his] lot in the congregation of the Lord.
6 “Saanka nga agipadto,” kunada. “Masapul a saanda nga ipadtoda dagitoy a banbanag; saan nga umay ti pannakaibabain.”
“Preach not;” [but] they shall preach: they shall not preach [indeed] to these, that reproach may not overtake them.
7 Rumbeng kadi a kastoy ti kunayo, O balay ni Jacob, “Makaunget kadi ti espiritu ni Yahweh? Pudno kadi a dagitoy ti aramidna?” Saan kadi a nasayaat dagiti sasaok iti siasinoman nga agar-aramid iti nalinteg?
Shall it be said [in] the house of Jacob, Is the spirit of the Lord straightened? are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
8 Iti nabiit pay, bimmusor dagiti tattaok a kasla maysa a kabusor. Ussobenyo ti kagay, ti kawes dagiti aglabas a mangpanpanunot a natalgeddan, a kas dagiti soldado a naggapu iti gubat nga iti pagarupda ket natalgeddan.
But long since is my people risen up as an enemy: from the garment do you pull off the ornament; of those that pass by securely [ye make] men returned from war.
9 Pinapanawyo dagiti babbai a tattaok kadagiti napintas a balayda; innalayo ti bendisionko kadagiti annakda iti agnanayon.
The wives of my people do you drive out of their delightful houses; from their children do ye take away my ornament for ever.
10 Tumakderkayo ket pumanawkayo, ta saan a daytoy ti lugar a mabalinyo a pagyanan, gapu iti kinarugitna; naan-anay a nadadael daytoy.
Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your resting-place; because it is polluted, it shall destroy [you], even with a grievous destruction.
11 No adda umay kadakayo nga addaan iti espiritu iti kinamanaginkukuna ken kinaulbod ket kunana, “Agipadtoak kadakayo maipapan iti arak ken naingel a mainum,” ket isuna ti kayatyo nga agbalin a profetayo.
If a man that goeth after wind and lieth with falsehood [should say], “I will preach unto thee of wine and of strong drink:” he would be a preacher for this people.
12 Siguradoek nga ummongenkayonto amin, O Jacob. Siguradoek nga ummongekto dagiti nabatbati iti Israel. Pagtitiponekto ida a kasla karnero iti koral, a kas iti arban iti tengnga ti pagarabanda. Addanto ti napigsa nga ariwawa gapu iti adu a tattao.
I will [once] surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather up the remnant of Israel; I will place them together as flocks in the fold, as droves in the midst of their pen: they shall be crowded with men.
13 Addanto ti mangilukat iti dalanda nga isu iti umuna kadakuada. Luktanda ti ruangan ket rimmuarda; lumabasto ti arida iti sangoananda. Ni Yahweh ti mangidaulonto kadakuada.
The wall-breaker cometh up before them; they break in and pass through the gate, and go out by it: and their king passeth on before them, and the Lord at their head.
