Mika 4

1 Ary izao no ho tonga any am-parany: Ny tendrombohitra misy ny tranon’ i Jehovah dia haorina eo an-tampon’ ny tendrombohitra Ary hasandratra ho avo noho ny havoana; Ary ny firenena hitanjozotra hankany.

And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain of the Lord's house shall be firmly established on the top of the mountains, and shall be exalted above the hills; and unto it shall people flow.

2 Eny, maro ny jentilisa no hiainga ka hanao hoe: Andeha Isika hiakatra any an-tendrombohitr’ i Jehovah, Ho any an-tranon’ Andriamanitr’ i Jakoba, Mba hampianarany antsika ny amin’ ny lalany, Ka handehanantsika amin’ ny atorony; Fa avy any Ziona no hivoahan’ ny lalàna, Ary avy any Jerosalema ny tenin’ i Jehovah.

And many nations shall come, and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; that he may teach us of his ways, and we may walk in his paths; for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the Lord out of Jerusalem.

3 Ary hitsara ny adin’ ny firenena maro Izy Ka hampiaiky ny firenena mahery hatrany amin’ ny lavitra; Dia hanefy ny sabany ho fangady ireny Ary ny lefony ho fanetezam-boaloboka; Ny firenena tsy hanainga sabatra hifamely; Na hianatra ady intsony.

And he shall judge between many people, and decide for strong nations even afar off; and they shall beat their swords into plough-shares, and their spears into pruning-knives: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, and they shall not learn any more war.

4 Fa samy hipetraka eny ambanin’ ny voalobony sy ny aviaviny izy, Ary tsy hisy hanaitaitra azy; Fa ny vavan’ i Jehovah, Tompon’ ny maro, no efa niteny.

But they shall sit every man under his vine and under his fig-tree, with none to make them afraid; for the mouth of the Lord of hosts hath spoken it.

5 Fa ny firenena rehetra samy mandeha amin’ ny anaran’ ny andriamaniny avy; Fa isika kosa handeha amin’ ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamanitsika mandrakizay doria.

[But] though all the people should walk every one in the name of his god, yet will we walk in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.

6 Amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, No hanangonako ny mandringa Sy hamoriako izay noroahina Mbamin’ izay nampahoriko;

On that day, saith the Lord, will I assemble her that halteth, and her that is driven out will I gather, and her to whom I have done evil;

7 Ary ny mandringa no hapetrako ho sisa, Ary izay noroahina lavitra ho firenena mahery; Ary Jehovah hanjaka aminy ao an-tendrombohitra Ziona Hatramin’ izany ka ho mandrakizay.

And I will make of her that halted a remnant, and of her that was cast off far away a strong nation: and the Lord will reign over them on mount Zion, from this time and unto eternity.

8 Ary ianao, ry tilikambon’ ny andiany’. Tendrombohitr’ i Ziona zanakavavy, Aminao no ho tonga izany, eny, ho tonga ny fanapahana voalohany, Dia ny fanjakan i Jerosalema zanakavavy.

And thou, O tower of flocks, the strong-hold of the daughter of Zion, unto thee shall go, and shall come, the former dominion, the kingdom belonging to the daughter of Jerusalem.

9 Koa nahoana no mitaraina mafy ianao? Moa tsy misy mpanjaka va ao aminao, Sa lany ringana avokoa ny mpanolotsainao, No dia azon’ ny fanaintainana ianao, toy ny vehivavy raha miteraka?

Now why dost thou cry aloud? is there no king in thee? is thy counsellor lost? that pangs have seized on thee as on a woman in travail?

10 Ry Ziona zanakavavy, mararia, ka manezaha, Toy ny vehivavy raha miteraka! Fa ankehitriny dia hivoaka avy any an-tanàna ianao Ka hipetraka any an-tsaha, Ary dia ho tonga hatrany Babylona aza; Any no hamonjena anao, Eny, any no hanavotan’ i Jehovah anao ho afaka amin’ ny tanan’ ny fahavalonao.

Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now shalt thou go forth out of the town, and thou shalt dwell in the field, and thou shalt go as far as Babylon; there shalt thou be delivered; there will the Lord redeem thee from the grasp of thy enemies.

11 Ary ankehitriny dia tafangona hamely anao ny firenena maro, Izay manao hoe: Aoka halam-baraka Ziona, Ary aoka ny masontsika ho faly mijery azy.

And now many nations are gathered against thee, that say, Let her be defiled, and let our eye look with pleasure on Zion.

12 Kanjo tsy fantatr’ ireny ny hevitr’ i Jehovah, Na azony ny fisainany; Fa efa nanangona azy toy ny amboara ho ao am-pamoloana Izy.

But they know not the thoughts of the Lord, and they understand not his counsel: that he will [once] gather them as the sheaves into the threshing-floor.

13 Mitsangàna, ka miveleza, ry Ziona zanakavavy, Fa ny tandrokao hataoko vy, Ary ny kitronao hataoko varahina, Ka hanorotoro firenena maro ianao; Dia hatolotrao ho an’ i Jehovah ny hareny, Ary ho an’ ny Tompon’ ny tany rehetra ny fananany.

Arise and thresh, O daughter of Zion; for I will render thy horn iron, and thy hoofs will I render copper, and thou shalt beat in pieces many people: and I will devote unto the Lord their ill-gotten gain, and their substance unto the Lord of the whole earth.
