Mika 2
1 Lozan’ izay mamoron-keloka sy misaintsain-dratsy ao am-pandriany! Ary nony maraina ny andro, dia manatanteraka izany izy, Satria manan-kery ny tànany.
Woe to those who lie awake planning evil, who in the light of morning carry out their plan because they have the power to do it.
2 Ary mitsiriritra saha izy ka maka izany an-keriny, Sy trano koa ka mahalasa azy; Ary mampahory olona mbamin’ ny ankohonany izy, Dia ny olona mbamin’ ny lovany.
They covet fields and seize them, desire houses and take them, they crush householder and his household, people and their possessions.
3 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Indro, mamorona loza hamelezana ity firenena ity Aho, Izay tsy hahazoanareo hanafaka ny vozonareo, Ka tsy handeha miandranandrana ianareo, Satria andro mampahory izany.
Therefore the Lord says: ‘I am planning disaster from which you cannot save your neck, nor walk proudly because it will be a terrible time.
4 Amin’ izany andro izany no hanaovana oha-teny handatsana anareo, Ka hitomaniana sy hidradradradrana hoe: Efa levona izao! Eny, hiteny izy hoe: Fongana tokoa isika; Ataony fanakalo zavatra ny anjaran’ ny oloko; Endrey! afindrany hiala amiko izany! Samy zarainy ho an’ ny mpiodina avy ny tanintsika!
On that day they will sing a taunt-song to you, this mocking lament: “My people’s estate is being measured for sale, our captors are dividing our fields. We are completely undone.”
5 Koa tsy hisy aminao hanenjana famolaina akory hanaovana filokana Ao amin’ ny fiangonan’ i Jehovah.
There will be no one to measure out land for you from the Lord’s community.
6 Aza miteniteny ianareo, hoy ny fiteniteniny; Aoka tsy hiteniteny ny amin’ ireto izy, Tsy hita lany ny fanalam-baraka ataony!
‘“Don’t rant!” they urge, “Of such things one does not prophesy! Shame will not overtake us!
7 He! izany teny izany! Ry taranak’ i Jakoba, Malaky tezitra va ny Fanahin’ i Jehovah? Ireto va no asa fanaony? Tsy mahasoa izay mandeha mahitsy va ny teniko?
Is the Lord impatient, or are such things his deeds? Are not his words favourable to the family of Jacob?” Aren’t my commands good for those who obey them?
8 Vao omaly no omaly no nitsanganan’ ny oloko ho fahavalo; Hendahanareo hiala eo amin’ ny lamba ny kapôtin’ izay mandeha tsy manana ahiahy, Dia izay tsy tia ady.
But you, you stand up as a foe against those who are peaceful; you strip the robe from those who pass by quietly, averse to conflict.
9 Ny vehivavy eo amin’ ny oloko dia roahinareo hiala amin’ ny tranony mahafinaritra; Esorinareo hiala mandrakizay amin’ ny zanany madinika ny voninahitro.
Women of my people you drive out from their happy homes, from their young children you take away my glory forever.
10 Mitsangàna, ka mialà (Fa tsy eto no fitsaharana), Satria misy fahalotoana mahatonga fandringanana eto, eny, fandringanana mafy.
Rise and begone, for this is no place to rest. Your uncleanness brings destruction, severe destruction.
11 Raha misy manaraka ny rivotra sy ny lainga ka mandainga hoe: Hitori-teny’ aminao ny amin’ ny divay sy ny zava-mahamamo aho, Dia izy no ho mpitori-tenin ity firenena ity.
If a person walking in wine and falsehood were to say, “I will prophesy to you of wine and strong drink,” then he would be the perfect prophet for this people!’
12 Hamory anareo rehetra tokoa Aho, ry Jakoba, Ary hanangona ny sisa amin’ ny Isiraely tokoa, Hakambako toy ny ondry any amin’ ny vala izy, Toy ny ondry andiany ao amin’ ny tany fiandrasana; Hitabataba izy noho ny hamaroan’ ny olona.
‘I will assuredly assemble all of Jacob, I will surely gather the survivors of Israel. I will herd them together as sheep in a fold, like a flock in the pasture, and the land will resound with the sounds of multitudes.
13 Ny mpanabanga miakatra eo alohany, Manabanga izy ka mandroso ho eo amin’ ny vavahady, Dia mivoaka eo aminy; Ny mpanjakany mandroso eo alohany, Ary Jehovah no mitarika azy.
‘The one who breaks out goes first. They have broken forth and passed by the gate and through it have they gone out. Their king leads before them, the Lord at their head.’
