< 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 plan iniquity, to those who plan on their beds to do evil. In the morning light they do it because they have power.
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 desire fields and seize them; they desire houses and take them. They oppress a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.
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 Yahweh says this, “Look, I am about to bring disaster against this clan, from which you will not remove your necks. You will not walk arrogantly, for it will be an evil 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!
In that day men will sing a song about you, and lament with a wailing lamentation. They will sing, 'We Israelites are completely ruined; Yahweh changes the territory of my people. How can he remove it from me? He portions out our fields to traitors!'”
5 Koa tsy hisy aminao hanenjana famolaina akory hanaovana filokana Ao amin’ ny fiangonan’ i Jehovah.
Therefore, you rich people will have no descendants to divide up the territory by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.
6 Aza miteniteny ianareo, hoy ny fiteniteniny; Aoka tsy hiteniteny ny amin’ ireto izy, Tsy hita lany ny fanalam-baraka ataony!
“Do not prophesy,” they say. “They must not prophesy these things; reproaches must not come.”
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?
Should it really be said, house of Jacob, “Is the Spirit of Yahweh angry? Are these really his deeds?” Do not my words do good to anyone who walks uprightly?
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.
Lately my people have risen up like an enemy. You strip the robe, the garment, from those who pass by unsuspectingly, as soldiers return from war to what they think is safety.
9 Ny vehivavy eo amin’ ny oloko dia roahinareo hiala amin’ ny tranony mahafinaritra; Esorinareo hiala mandrakizay amin’ ny zanany madinika ny voninahitro.
You drive the women belonging to my people from their pleasant houses; you take my blessing from their young children forever.
10 Mitsangàna, ka mialà (Fa tsy eto no fitsaharana), Satria misy fahalotoana mahatonga fandringanana eto, eny, fandringanana mafy.
Get up and leave, for this is not a place where you can stay, because of its uncleanness; it is destroyed with complete 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 someone comes to you in a spirit of falsehood and lies and says, “I will prophesy to you about wine and strong drink,” he would be considered to be a 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 surely assemble all of you, Jacob. I will surely gather the remnant of Israel. I will bring them together like sheep in a fold, like a flock in the midst of their pasture. There will be a loud noise because of the multitude of people.
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.
Someone who breaks open their way for them will go ahead of them. They break through the gate and go out; their king will pass on before them. Yahweh will be at their head.
