Micah 7
1 Wanginla finsrak luk! Nga oana sie mwet masrinsral su tia ku in konauk fokinsak ulun sak uh, ac wangin pac grape ke oa in grape uh. Grape nukewa ac fig emwem nukewa kinkinla tari.
Woe is me! I have become like the gathering of summer fruit, and like the grapes that have been gleaned; there is no grape cluster to eat, no ripe early fig that my soul desires.
2 Wanginna sie mwet suwohs lula fin acn uh, wangin sie su inse pwaye nu sin God. Mwet nukewa suk pacl fal in orek akmas. Elos suk na in oru koluk nu sin mwet Israel wialos.
Faithful people have disappeared from the land; there is no upright person in all mankind. They all lie in wait to shed blood; each one hunts his own brother with a net.
3 Elos nukewa mwet na pisrla in oru ma koluk. Mwet fulat ac mwet nununku soano in oasr mol nu selos meet liki elos fah oru ma kunalos. Mwet pweyen uh elos fahk ma elos kena kac, na mwet kol ingan insese nu kac ac tukeni orek pwapa lukma.
Their hands are very good at doing harm: the ruler asks for money, the judge is ready for bribes, and the powerful man is saying to others what he wants to obtain. Thus they plot together.
4 Finne mwet su srulun wo ac lulalfongiyuk inmasrlolos, a elos mwet lusrongten oana mah uh. Len sac summa tari ke God El ac kalyei mwet uh, oana ke El tuh sensenkakinulos meet ke pusren mwet palu. Inge elos arulana fohsak.
The best of them is like a brier, the most upright is worse than a thorn hedge. It is the day foretold by your watchmen, the day of your punishment. Now is the time of their confusion.
5 Nimet lulalfongi mwet tulan lom ku mwet kawuk lom. Liyaung ma kom fahk, finne nu sin mutan kiom.
Do not trust any neighbor; put no confidence in any friend. Be careful about what you say even to the woman who lies in your arms.
6 In pacl inge tulik mukul nutin papa uh oru papa uh oana mwet lalfon, ac tulik mutan uh supangkas nu sin nina kialos uh, ac mutan fusr akukuin nu sin nina talupalos. Mwet lokoalok lun sie mwet pa mwet na in sou lal sifacna.
For a son dishonors his father, a daughter rises up against her mother, and a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law. A man's enemies are the people of his own house.
7 Tusruktu nga fah tawi na LEUM GOD; nga fah tupan God, mweyen nga lulalfongi lah El ac moliyula. God luk El fah porongeyu.
But as for me, I will look to Yahweh. I will wait for the God of my salvation; my God will hear me.
8 Wangin sripa mwet lokoalok lasr in niankusri kut. Kut ne ikori, tuh kut ac fah sifilpa tuyak. Kut ne oasr in lohsr in pacl inge, tuh LEUM GOD El kalem lasr.
Do not rejoice over me, my enemy. After I fall, I will rise. When I sit in darkness, Yahweh will be a light for me.
9 Kut tuh oru ma Koluk lain LEUM GOD, na pa inge kut enenu in muteng kasrkusrak lal ke kitin pacl. Tusruktu ke saflaiya El ac fah loangekut ac akwoyela ma koluk su tuh orek nu sesr. El ac fah uskutme nu ke kalem. Kut fah moul ac liye ke El ac molikutla.
Because I sinned against Yahweh, I will bear his rage until he pleads my cause, and executes judgment for me. He will bring me to the light, and I will see him rescue me in his justice.
10 Na mwet lokoalok lasr fah liye ma inge ac mwekinla — nuna mwet lokoalok pacna su tuh isrun kut ac fahk, “Pia sruk LEUM GOD se lowos an?” Kut ac fah liye ke kutangyukla elos, ac lolongyuki oana fohk furarrar inkanek uh.
Then my enemy will see it, and shame will cover the one who said to me, “Where is Yahweh your God?” My eyes will look at her; she will be trampled down like the mud in the streets.
11 Mwet Jerusalem, pacl in sifilpa musai pot in siti uh summa. In pacl sac acn lowos ac fah akyokyeyukelik.
A day to build your walls will come; on that day the boundaries will be extended very far.
12 Mwet lowos fah folokeni nu yuruwos liki acn nukewa — liki acn Assyria layen kutulap, liki Egypt layen eir, liki acn nukewa apunla Infacl Euphrates, liki meoa ac fineol yen loessula uh.
On that day your people will come to you, from Assyria and the cities in Egypt, from Egypt to the River, from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Tusruktu faclu ac fah ekla sie acn mwesis ke sripen ma koluk lalos su muta fac.
But the land will be desolate because of the people who are living there, because of the fruit of their actions.
14 LEUM GOD, kom in oana sie shepherd nu sin mwet lom, mwet su kom sulela. Elos finne muta mukaimtal insak uh, oasr na ima wowo raunelosla. Lela elos in som mongo in ima wowo lun Bashan ac Gilead, oana ke elos tuh oru in pacl meet ah.
Shepherd your people with your rod, the flock of your inheritance. They live alone in a thicket, in the midst of a pastureland. Let them graze in Bashan and Gilead as in the old days.
15 Orek mwenmen nu sesr, LEUM GOD, in oana ke kom tuh oru in len ingo ke kom uskutme liki acn Egypt.
As in the days when you came out of the land of Egypt, I will show them wonders.
16 Mutanfahl puspis ac fah liye ma inge ac arulana mwekinla kac, finne yohk ku lalos. Elos fah kaliya oallos ac fonosya insraclos ke sripen elos toasrla.
The nations will see and be ashamed of all their power. They will put their hands on their mouths; their ears will be deaf.
17 Elos fah orak infohk uh oana wet uh. Ke sripen sangeng lalos elos ac rarrar ac tuku liki pot ku lalos, ac forla nu sin LEUM GOD lasr.
They will lick the dust like a snake, like creatures that crawl on the earth. They will come out of their dens with fear; they will come with fear to you, Yahweh our God, and they will be afraid because of you.
18 Wangin sie pac god oana kom, O LEUM GOD. Kom nunak munas ke ma koluk lun mwet lom su painmoulla. Kom tia sruokya kasrkusrak lom nwe tok, ac kom insewowo in fahkak nu sesr lungse kawil lom.
Who is a God like you— who takes away sin, who passes over the transgression of the remnant of his inheritance? He does not keep his anger forever, because he delights in his covenant faithfulness.
19 Kom ac fah sifilpa pakoten nu sesr. Kom fah futungya ma koluk lasr nu ye niom, ac supweya nu yen loallana in meoa uh!
You will again have compassion on us; you will trample our iniquities under your feet. You will throw all our sins into the depths of the sea.
20 Kom fah akkalemye oaru ac lungse kawil lom nu sin mwet lom, mwet in fwil natul Abraham ac Jacob, oana ke kom wuleang nu sin mwet matu lasr pacl loes somla ah.
You will give truth to Jacob and covenant faithfulness to Abraham, as you swore to our ancestors in ancient days.
