Micah 1
1 In pacl ma Jotham, ac Ahaz, ac Hezekiah elos tuh tokosra lun acn Judah, LEUM GOD El sang kas inge nu sel Micah, su sie mwet in siti srisrik Moresheth. LEUM GOD El ikasla nu sel Micah kalmen ma inge nukewa ke Samaria ac Jerusalem.
The word of the Lord that came to Micah the Moreshethite, in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw about Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Lohng ma se inge, kowos mutanfahl nukewa; Porongo ma se inge, kowos nukewa su muta fin faclu! LEUM GOD Fulatlana El ac fah kaskas lain kowos. Lipsre! El kaskas liki Tempul lal inkusrao me.
All peoples, listen. And may the earth and its fullness pay attention. And may the Lord God be a witness to you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 LEUM GOD El tuku liki acn mutal sel. El fah oatui ac fahsr fin mangon eol uh.
For behold, the Lord will go forth from his place. And he will descend, and he will trample over the high places of the earth.
4 Na eol uh ac fah kofelik ye nial Oana kiris ma oan ke e uh. Ma inge ac fah kahkla nu infahlfal uh, Oana kof uh ke sororla pe eol uh.
And the mountains will be consumed under him, and the valleys will be torn apart, like wax before the face of fire, and like waters that rush swiftly downward.
5 Ma inge nukewa ac sikyak mweyen mwet Israel elos orekma koluk ac tunyuna lain God. Tunyuna lun Israel ac sisi nu fin su? Nu fin Samaria sifacna, siti fulat selos! Ac su ac eis mwatan alu nu ke ma sruloala in acn Judah? Jerusalem sifacna!
All this is for the wickedness of Jacob and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the wickedness of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what is the loftiness of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
6 Ouinge LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga fah kunausla Samaria tuh in oana sie yol in ma musalla in acn turangang, yen grape uh yok we. Nga fah okoala eot musalsal lun siti uh nu infahlfal uh, ac oru tuh in wangin ma oan fin pwelung lun siti sac.
And I will place Samaria like a pile of stones in the field, when a vineyard is planted. And I will pull down its stones into the valley, and I will reveal her foundations.
7 Ma sruloala nukewa ma saok sin mwet we ac fah fokfoki nu ke ip srisrik, ac ma nukewa ma itukyang nu sin mutan ma kosro in tempul lul ma sruloala ac eis molo kac fah isisyak ke e. Mwe alyalu saya nukewa ac fah orala sie yol in ma sisila. Samaria el tuh eisani molin mutan kosro uh in akkasrupye fokin acn uh, a inge mwet lokoalok lun Samaria ac fah usla ma inge ac sang nu sin mutan kosro ke tempul lun ma sruloala in acn saya.”
And all her graven images will be cut to pieces, and all her rewards will be burned with fire, and I will place all her idols in perdition. For they have been gathered together from the pay of a kept woman, and even to the pay of a kept woman, they will return.
8 Na Micah el fahk, “Ke sripa se inge nga ac fah mwemelil ac eoksra. Nga ac fah koflufolla foroht forma, ac tia loeyuk niuk, in akkalemye asor luk. Nga fah wowoyak oana kosro inima, ac mwemelil oana pusren sie kakowa ke fong.
I will lament and wail about this. I will go out despoiled and naked. I will make a howl like the dragons, and a mourning like the ostriches.
9 Kinet ke Samaria tiana ku in mahla, ac Judah el apkuran in sun pac luman keok sacna. Mwe ongoiya sun tari mutunpot lun Jerusalem, acn su mwet luk muta we.”
For her wound has been in despair. For it has come even to Judah. It has touched the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 Nimet fahk nu sin mwet lokoalok lasr in acn Gath lah kutangyukla kut. Nimet lela elos in liye ke kowos tung. Mwet in Beth Leaphrah, kowos ipippip infohk uh in akkalemye inse toasr lowos!
Do not be willing to announce it in Gath; may you not lament with tears. In the house of Dust, besprinkle yourselves with dust.
11 Kowos mwet Shaphir, kowos ac som nu in sruoh, koflufol ac mwekin. Elos su muta in Zaanan tiana ku in ilme liki siti selos. Pacl se kowos lohng pusren tung in acn Bethezel, kowos ac etu na lah wangin nien wikla we.
And cross over to your dwelling place, Beauty, bewildered by disgrace. She did not depart, who dwells at the place of departure. The House nearby, which remained firm by herself, will receive mourning from you.
12 Mwet Maroth elos tawi ac tupan in kasreyuk elos, mweyen LEUM GOD El oru tuh ongoiya lulap apkuranyang nu Jerusalem.
For she has been weakened in goodness, who dwells in bitterness. For disaster has descended from the Lord to the gate of Jerusalem.
13 Kowos su muta in Lachish, kapriya horse an nu ke chariot an. Kowos etai ma koluk lun Israel, pwanang Jerusalem oru pac ma koluk.
A tumult of four-horse chariots has stupefied the inhabitants of Lachish. The beginning has been sin for the daughter of Zion, because in you have been found the evil deeds of Israel.
14 Ac kowos mwet Judah, wilkasla nu sin acn Moresheth Gath. Ac fah wangin kasru lun siti srisrik Achzib nu sin tokosra lun Israel.
Because of this, she will send emissaries to the inheritance of Gath: the house of Lying in order to deceive the kings of Israel.
15 Mwet Mareshah, LEUM GOD El fah eiskowosyang nu inpoun mwet lokoalok, su ac fah sruokya acn in muta lowos. Mwet kol lun Israel fah som ac wikla in sie luf in acn Adullam.
Nevertheless, I will lead an heir to you, who dwell in Mareshah: the glory of Israel will reach all the way to Adullam.
16 Mwet Judah, kalla aunsifowos in asor ke tulik kowos kuloi. Koala insifowos in mangsrasrala oana sifen won vulture uh, mweyen tulik nutuwos ac fah utukla liki kowos nu in sruoh.
Become bald and shaved for your delicate sons. Increase your baldness like the eagle. For they have been carried into captivity from you.
