< Mikias 7 >

1 Asi-ak pay! Para kaniak ket kasla nalpasen iti panagaapit iti bunga a maapit iti kalgaw, kasta met ti matudtod a nabati nga ubas kadagiti kaubasan: Awanen ti masarakan a rinaay a prutas, ngem tarigagayak pay laeng dagiti umuna a naluom a bunga ti igos.
Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat: my soul desired the first ripe fruit.
2 Napukawen ti nadiosan a tao iti daga; awanen ti nabati a nalinteg kadagiti tattao. Agsanebda amin a mangpatay iti sabali a tattao; anupen ti tunggal maysa ti kabsatna.
The good man is perished out of the earth: and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
3 Nalaingda nga agaramid iti kinaranggas: agdawat ti kuarta ti agturay, agdawat iti pasuksok ti ukom, ken ibagbaga ti nabileg a tao kadagiti dadduma a tattao dagiti kayatna a gun-oden. Ket agpanggepda iti dakes a sangsangkamaysa.
That they may do evil with both hands earnestly, the prince asks, and the judge asks for a reward; and the great man, he utters his mischievous desire: so they wrap it up.
4 Maiyarig iti siitan a mula dagiti kalaingan ken maiyarig iti naiyalad a siitan a mula ti kalilintegan kadakuada. Daytoy ti aldaw nga imballaag dagiti pagbanbantayenyo, ti aldaw iti pannakadusayo. Dimtengen ita ti pannakaburiborda.
The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is sharper than a thorn hedge: the day of your watchmen and your visitation comes; now shall be their perplexity.
5 Saanka nga agtalek iti uray siasino a kaarubam, saanmo nga ited ti talekmo iti uray siasinoman a gayyem. Agannadka kadagiti isawsawangmo uray iti babai nga aggid-idda iti takiagmo.
Trust you not in a friend, put you not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of your mouth from her that lies in your bosom.
6 Ta saanen a dayawen ti anak a lalaki ti amana, tumakder ti anak a babai a maibusor iti inana, ken busoren ti manugang a babai ti katuganganna a babai. Dagiti kabusor ti tao ket dagiti tattao iti bukodna a balay.
For the son dishonors the father, the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
7 Ngem no maipapan kaniak, kumitaak kenni Yahweh. Urayek ti Dios ti pannakaisalakanko; denggennakto ti Diosko.
Therefore I will look to the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
8 Saandak a katawaan, dakayo a kabusorko. Kalpasan ti pannakatnagko, bumangonakto. Inton agtugawak iti kasipngetan, agbalinto ni Yahweh a silawko.
Rejoice not against me, O my enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light to me.
9 Gapu ta nagbasolak kenni Yahweh, lak-amek ti pungtotna agingga nga ikaluyanak, ken ukomennak. Ipannakto iti lawag, ket makitakto ti panangispalna kaniak iti kinalintegna.
I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him, until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, and I shall behold his righteousness.
10 Ket makitanto dayta dagita kabusorko, ket mabainanto dagidiay nagkuna kaniak, “Sadino ti ayan ni Yahweh a Diosmo?” Kitaekto isuna; mabaddebaddekanto isuna a kasla pitak kadagiti kalsada.
Then she that is my enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her which said to me, Where is the LORD your God? my eyes shall behold her: now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
11 Dumtengto ti aldaw a panangpatakdermo kadagiti padermo; iti dayta nga aldaw, maipalawanto la unay dagiti beddengmo.
In the day that your walls are to be built, in that day shall the decree be far removed.
12 Iti dayta nga aldaw, umayto kenka dagiti tattaom, nga aggapu iti Asiria ken kadagiti siudad ti Egipto, manipud Egipto agingga iti dakkel a karayan, ti Euprates, manipud iti baybay agingga iti sabali a baybay, manipud iti bantay agingga iti dadduma bantay.
In that day also he shall come even to you from Assyria, and from the fortified cities, and from the fortress even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Ket aglangalangto dagidiay a daga gapu kadagiti tattao nga agnanaed ita sadiay, gapu iti bunga dagiti aramidda.
Notwithstanding the land shall be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
14 Ipastormo dagiti tattaom babaen iti sarukodmo, ti arban a kas tawidmo. Uray no agnanaedda nga agwaywayas iti kabakiran ti Bantay Carmel, palubosam ida a mangan idiay Basan ken Galaad a kas idi punganay.
Feed your people with your rod, the flock of your heritage, which dwell solitarily in the wood, in the middle of Carmel: let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
15 Kas kadagiti al-aldaw idi rimmuarkayo iti daga ti Egipto, ipakitakto kadakuada dagiti milagro.
According to the days of your coming out of the land of Egypt will I show to him marvelous things.
16 Makitanto dagiti nasion ti aramiden ni Yahweh ket mabainandanto gapu ta awan ti bilegda. Iyapputdanto dagiti imada kadagiti ngiwatda; agbalindanto a tuleng.
The nations shall see and be confounded at all their might: they shall lay their hand on their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
17 Dildilandanto ti tapok a kas iti uleg, kas kadagiti parsua nga agkarkaradap iti rabaw ti daga. Rummuardanto kadagiti rukibda a mabutbuteng; umasidegdanto a mabutbuteng kenka, O Yahweh a Diosmi, ket agbutengdanto gapu kenka.
They shall lick the dust like a serpent, they shall move out of their holes like worms of the earth: they shall be afraid of the LORD our God, and shall fear because of you.
18 Siasino ti Dios a kas kenka, sika a mangikkat iti basol, sika a saan a mangikankano iti salungasing dagiti nabatbati a tattao a tawidmo? Saan nga agnanayon ti ungetmo gapu ta pagaayatmo nga ipakita kadakami ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo.
Who is a God like to you, that pardons iniquity, and passes by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retains not his anger for ever, because he delights in mercy.
19 Maasiankanto manen kadakami; ibaddebaddekmonto dagiti basolmi. Ibellengmonto iti lansad ti baybay dagiti amin a basbasolmi.
He will turn again, he will have compassion on us; he will subdue our iniquities; and you will cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
20 Impaaymonto ti kinapudno kenni Jacob ken ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo kenni Abraham, a kas inkarim kadagiti kapuonanmi idi un-unana nga al-aldaw.
You will perform the truth to Jacob, and the mercy to Abraham, which you have sworn to our fathers from the days of old.
