Micha Propheta 2
1 Vae qui cogitatis inutile, et operamini malum in cubilibus vestris: in luce matutina faciunt illud, quoniam contra Deum est manus eorum.
Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds! When the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
2 Et concupierunt agros, et violenter tulerunt, et rapuerunt domos: et calumniabantur virum, et domum eius, virum, et hereditatem eius.
They covet fields and seize them, and houses, then take them away. They oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
3 Idcirco haec dicit Dominus: Ecce ego cogito super familiam istam malum: unde non auferetis colla vestra, et non ambulabitis superbi, quoniam tempus pessimum est.
Therefore the LORD says: “Behold, I am planning against these people a disaster, from which you will not remove your necks, neither will you walk haughtily, for it is an evil time.
4 In die illa sumetur super vos parabola, et cantabitur canticum cum suavitate, dicentium: Depopulatione vastati sumus: pars populi mei commutata est: quomodo recedet a me, cum revertatur, qui regiones nostras dividat?
In that day they will take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying, ‘We are utterly ruined! My people’s possession is divided up. Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!’”
5 Propter hoc non erit tibi mittens funiculum sortis in coetu Domini.
Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the LORD’s assembly.
6 O Israel Ne loquamini loquentes: Non stillabit super istos, non comprehendet confusio.
“Do not prophesy!”—they prophesy— “Do not prophesy about these things. Disgrace will not overtake us.”
7 Dicit domus Iacob: Numquid abbreviatus est spiritus Domini, aut tales sunt cogitationes eius? Nonne verba mea bona sunt cum eo, qui recte graditur?
Shall it be said, O house of Jacob, “Is the LORD’s Spirit angry? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?”
8 Et econtrario populus meus in adversarium consurrexit: desuper tunica pallium sustulistis: et eos, qui transibant simpliciter, convertistis in bellum.
But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.
9 Mulieres populi mei eiecistis de domo deliciarum suarum: a parvulis earum tulistis laudem meam in perpetuum.
You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you take away my blessing forever.
10 Surgite, et ite, quia non habetis hic requiem: propter immunditiam eius corrumpetur putredine pessima.
Arise, and depart! For this is not your resting place, because of uncleanness that destroys, even with a grievous destruction.
11 Utinam non essem vir habens spiritum, et mendacium potius loquerer: stillabo tibi in vinum, et in ebrietatem: et erit super quem stillatur populus iste.
If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies, saying, “I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink,” he would be the prophet of this people.
12 Congregatione congregabo Iacob totum te: in unum conducam reliquias Israel, pariter ponam illum quasi gregem in ovili, quasi pecus in medio caularum, tumultuabuntur a multitudine hominum.
I will surely assemble all of you, Jacob. I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the middle of their pasture. They will swarm with people.
13 Ascendet enim pandens iter ante eos: divident, et transibunt portam, et ingredientur per eam: et transibit rex eorum coram eis, et Dominus in capite eorum.
He who breaks open the way goes up before them. They break through the gate, and go out. Their king passes on before them, with the LORD at their head.
