< Maika 3 >

1 Hanki nagra ama nanekema huana, Israeli nagatema ugotama hu'naza kva vahe'mota antahiho, e'i zana fatgo zanki havi zanki huta ko keta antahita hu'naze.
I also said: Hear, O ye heads of Jacob, And ye leaders of the house of Israel! Is it not for you to administer justice?
2 Hianagi tamagra knare avu'ava zankura tamavesra nehuta, kefo avu'ava zama hu'zankuke tamave'nesie. Nagri vahe'mo'za ofri kasefa mani'nazageta zamavufaga eri tragatragu nehuta, zaferina zamiretira ame'a zamia eri hazori netraze.
But ye hate what is good, and love what is evil; Ye tear from men their skin, Yea, their flesh from their bones;
3 Tamagra Nagri veamokizmi zamufga neneta, maka zamavufaga hakaneta eri vaga neraze. Ana nehuta zaferina zamia rufu netagita, afu me'ama osi kavofine ran kavofinema krenaku'ma tagahu osi'osi'ma hazaza nehaze.
Ye devour the flesh of my people, And strip them of their skin, And break their bones, And cut them in pieces, as for the pot, And as flesh for the caldron?
4 Ana nehuta kna zamo'ma tamagrite'ma ne-egeta Ra Anumzamo'ma tamaza hanigura zavi krafa nehazanagi, Ra Anumzamo'a eme tamaza osugahie. Na'ankure tamagra rama'a havi avu'avaza hu'nazankino avugosa, rukarahe nehuno ontamagegahie.
Then shall they cry to Jehovah, But he will not hear them; Yea, at that time will he hide his face from them, Because they have done iniquity.
5 Ra Anumzamo'a amanage huno nehie. Tamagra havige kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota, Nagri vahera zamavareta havi kante nevaze. Ana nehutma ne'zama tamamiza vahera fruge hunezmantaze. Hianagi ne'zama ontamamiza vahera, agafa hutma koro kea ha' vahe'mo'za tamazeri haviza hugahaze huta hunezmantaze.
Thus saith Jehovah concerning the prophets, who deceive my people, Who, while they bite with their teeth, proclaim peace, But who, if one fill not their mouths, prepare war against him:
6 E'ina hu'negu tamagritera hanizamo eme refitesigeta hanimpi mani'neta mago'enena ava'nagna zana onketfa hugahaze. Ana hanigetma henkama fore'ma hania zankura mago'enena huamara osugahaze. Ana kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota masare manigahazanagi hanimpima maniaza huta manigahaze.
Therefore shall night come upon you, so that ye shall have no vision, And darkness, so that ye shall not divine; The sun shall go down upon the prophets, And the day shall be dark to them.
7 Ana'ma hanigetma henkama fore'ma hania zanku'ma havige kasnampa kema nehaza vahe'mota tusi tamagazegu nehuta kepri hugahaze. Na'ankure Anumzamo'a naneke tamirera kenona huoramigahie.
Then shall the seers be ashamed, and the diviners confounded, So that all of them shall hide their faces, Because there is no answer from God.
8 Hianagi Ra Anumzamofo Avamumo'a nagripi emani viteno hankavea nenamie. Ana nehuno fatgo avu'ava zane fatgoma huno refkoma hu avu'avazanena naza hige'na kena antahina nehue. Ana nehuno nazeri hankanavetige'na Israeli vahe'motama keontahi avu'ava zama nehaza zanku'ene kumi tamigura, korora osu'na huama nehue.
But I am full of power, even of the spirit of Jehovah; Full of uprightness and courage, To declare to Jacob his transgression, And to Israel his sin.
9 Israeli vahe'mokizmi kva vahe'mota tamagesa ante'neta ama nanekea antahiho. Fatgoma huno refko'ma hu avu'ava zankura tamavesra nehutma, fatgo avu'ava zana netretma akrahe karahe avu'avaza nehaza vahe mani'naze.
O hear this, ye heads of the house of Jacob, And ye leaders of the house of Israel, Who abhor justice, And pervert all equity,
10 Hagi Jerusalemi kuma'ma eri agafama huta kinte'nazana, vahe'ma ahe fri avu'ava zamo'ene havi avu'ava zamo avite'nea agofetu kinte'naze.
Who build up Zion with blood, And Jerusalem with iniquity!
11 Tamagra kva vahe'mota keagama refko'ma hazana, masavema hu'za ramiza zago e'nerita, keaga refkoa nehaze. Tamagra pristi vahe'motane kasnampa vahe'motanena zagoma eritetage kasnampa nanekea nehuta vahera rempia hunezmize. Ana nehutma makamota huta Ra Anumzamo'a tagrane magoka mani'neankino hazenke zamo'a tagritera omegahie huta nehaze.
Her heads judge for reward, And her priests teach for hire, And her prophets divine for money, And yet they lean upon Jehovah, saying, “Is not Jehovah in the midst of us? No evil can come upon us.”
12 E'ina hu'negu kva vahe'motane, pristi vahe'motane kasnampa vahe'motanema hu'naza avu'ava zamofo hazenkea Ra Anumzamo'a Jerusalemi kumamofo agofetu anteno kumara eri haviza hanigeno, fragu vaziramino kugusopamo'ma hiaza huno hihi huno marerigahie. Ana hanigeno Saioni agonafima menima Anumzamofo mono noma me'nea agonafina, zafa tanopamo hageno refitegahie.
Therefore because of you shall Zion be ploughed as a field, And Jerusalem become heaps of stones, And the mountain of the temple like the heights of a forest.
