< Mika 5 >
1 Koa mivory ho andiany ianao, ry zanakavavin’ ny andiany! Manao fahirano antsika izy, Mamely tsorakazo ny takolaky ny mpitsaran’ ny Isiraely izy.
Nowe assemble thy garisons, O daughter of garisons: he hath layed siege against vs: they shall smite the iudge of Israel with a rod vpon the cheeke.
2 Fa ianao, ry Betlehema Efrata, Izay kely tsy tokony ho isan’ ny arivon’ i Joda akory, Dia avy ao aminao no hivoahan’ Izay anankiray ho Mpanapaka ho Ahy ao amin’ ny Isiraely; Hatry ny fahagola no efa nivoahany, dia hatrizay hatrizay.
And thou Beth-leem Ephrathah art litle to bee among the thousandes of Iudah, yet out of thee shall he come forth vnto me, that shalbe the ruler in Israel: whose goings forth haue bene from the beginning and from euerlasting.
3 Koa dia hatolony ireny, Ambara-pihavin’ ny fotoana hiterahan’ izay anankiray hiteraka; Ary izay sisa amin’ ny rahalahiny dia hiverina mbamin’ i ny Zanak’ Isiraely.
Therefore will he giue them vp, vntill the time that shee which shall beare, shall trauaile: then the remnant of their brethren shall returne vnto the children of Israel.
4 Ary hitsangana Izy hiandry ny ondriny amin’ ny herin’ i Jehovah. Sy amin’ ny voninahitry ny anaran’ i Jehovah Andriamaniny, Ka handry fahizay ireny, Fa izao dia ho lehibe hatrany amin’ ny faran’ ny tany Izy.
And he shall stand, and feed in the strength of the Lord, and in the maiestie of the Name of the Lord his God, and they shall dwel still: for now shall he be magnified vnto the ends of the world.
5 Ary Izy no ho fiadanana; Raha tonga eto amin’ ny tanin-tsika ny Asyriana Ka miditra ao amin’ ny tranobentsika, Dia hanangana mpiandry ondry fito sy mpanapaka valo hisakana azy isika.
And hee shall be our peace when Asshur shall come into our lande: when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seuen shepheardes, and eight principall men.
6 Ary handany ny tany Asyria amin’ ny sabatra Sy ny tanin’ i Nimroda ao an-tanànany ireo; Ary Izy hamonjy amin’ ny Asyriana, Raha tonga amin’ ny tanintsika sady manitsaka ato amin’ ny fari-tanintsika ireny.
And they shall destroy Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod with their swordes: thus shall he deliuer vs from Asshur, when hee commeth into our lande, and when he shall tread within our borders.
7 Ary izay sisa amin’ i Jakoba ao amin’ ny firenena maro Dia ho tahaka ny ando avy amin’ i Jehovah, Sy tahaka ny ranonorana eny amin’ ny ahitra, Izay tsy manantena mpaniraka, Na miandry zanak’ olombelona.
And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among many people, as a dewe from the Lord, and as the showres vpon the grasse, that waiteth not for man, nor hopeth in the sonnes of Adam.
8 Ary izay sisa amin’ i Jakoba ao amin’ ny jentilisa, Ao amin’ ny firenena maro, Dia ho tahaka ny liona amin’ ny biby any an’ ala, Sy ho tahaka ny liona tanora ao amin’ ny andian’ ny ondry aman’ osy: Raha mamaky eo izy, dia manitsakitsaka sy mamiravira, ka tsy misy mahavonjy.
And the remnant of Iaakob shalbe among the Gentiles in the middes of many people, as the lyon among the beastes of the forest, and as the lyons whelpe among the flockes of sheepe, who when he goeth thorow, treadeth downe and teareth in pieces, and none can deliuer.
9 Aoka haingaina amin’ ny rafilahinao ny tananao, Ary aoka ho ringana ny fahavalonao rehetra.
Thine hand shall bee lift vp vpon thine aduersaries, and all thine enemies shalbe cut off.
10 Ary amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah, Dia haringako tsy ho eo aminao intsony ny soavalinao, Ary hofonganiko ny kalesinao,
And it shall come to passe in that day, sayth the Lord, that I will cut off thine horses out of the middes of thee, and I will destroy thy charets.
11 Hofoanako ny tanàna amin’ ny taninao, Ary harodako ny tanànanao mimanda rehetra;
And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and ouerthrowe all thy strong holdes.
12 Hofoanako tsy hisy amin’ ny tananao ny fankatovanao, Ary tsy hanana mpanandro intsony ianao.
And I will cut off thine enchanters out of thine hande: and thou shalt haue no more southsayers.
13 Hofoanako tsy hisy aminao koa ny sampinao voasokitra Sy ny tsangam-baton-tsampinao; Ary tsy hiankohoka eo anatrehan’ ny asan’ ny tananao intsony ianao.
Thine idoles also will I cut off, and thine images out of the middes of thee: and thou shalt no more worship the woorke of thine hands.
14 Hongotako tsy ho eo aminao ny Aserahanao; Ary horavako koa ny tanànanao.
And I wil plucke vp thy groues out of the middes of thee: so will I destroy thine enemies.
15 Ary ny fahatezerana sy ny fahavinirana no hamaliako ny firenena izay tsy mihaino.
And I will execute a vegeance in my wrath and indignation vpon the heathen, which they haue not heard.
