< Mika 6 >

1 Masìna ianareo, mihainoa izay lazain’ i Jehovah: Mitsangàna, mandahara eo anoloan’ ny tendrombohitra, Ary aoka ho ren’ ny havoana ny feonao.
Hearken ye nowe what the Lord sayth, Arise thou, and contende before the mountaines, and let the hilles heare thy voyce.
2 Mihainoa ny adin’ i Jehovah ianareo, ry tendrombohitra, Sy ianareo, ry fanorena-matezan’ ny tany; Fa Jehovah manana ady amin’ ny olony, Eny, amin’ ny Isiraely no ifandaharany.
Heare ye, O mountaynes, the Lordes quarel, and ye mightie foundations of the earth: for the Lord hath a quarell against his people, and he will pleade with Israel.
3 Ry oloko, inona no nataoko taminao? Inona no nanasarako anao? Tondroy maso ary Aho.
O my people, what haue I done vnto thee? or wherin haue I grieued thee? testifie against me.
4 Fa nentiko niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta ianao Sady navotako avy tao amin’ ny trano nahandevozana: Dia nirahiko hitarika anao Mosesy sy Arona ary Miriama.
Surely I brought thee vp out of the land of Egypt, and redeemed thee out of the house of seruants, and I haue sent before thee, Moses, Aaron, and Miriam.
5 Ry oloko, mba tsarovy ny saina nataon’ i Balaka, mpanjakan’ i Moaba, Sy izay navalin’ i Balama, zanak’ i Beora, azy, Ary izay natao hatrany Sitima ka hatrany Gilgala, Hahafantaranareo ny asa marina nataon’ i Jehovah.
O my people, remember nowe what Balak King of Moab had deuised, and what Balaam the sonne of Beor answered him, from Shittim vnto Gilgal, that ye may knowe the righteousnes of the Lord.
6 Inona no ho entiko manatona an’ i Jehovah Sy miondrika eo anatrehan’ Andriamanitra Izay any amin’ ny avo? Hanatona Azy mitondra fanatitra dorana Sy ny ombilahy kely iray taona va aho?
Wherewith shall I come before the Lord, and bowe my selfe before the hie God? Shall I come before him with burnt offrings, and with calues of a yeere olde?
7 Ho sitrak’ i Jehovah va ny ondrilahy arivoarivo, Na renirano diloilo iray alina? Hanolotra ny lahimatoako noho ny fahadisoako va aho, Na ny ateraky ny kiboko noho ny fahotan’ ny fanahiko?
Will the Lord be pleased with thousands of rams, or with ten thousand riuers of oyle? shall I giue my first borne for my transgression, euen the fruite of my bodie, for the sinne of my soule?
8 Ry olombelona, efa naseho anao izay tsara Sy izay ilain’ i Jehovah aminao, Dia izao ihany: Ny hanao ny marina sy ny ho tia famindram-po Ary ny hanaraka an’ Andriamanitrao amin’ ny fanetren-tena
He hath shewed thee, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requireth of thee: surely to doe iustly, and to loue mercie, and to humble thy selfe, to walke with thy God.
9 Manaitra ny tanàna ny feon’ i Jehovah, Ary mahita ny anaranao ny hendry; Henoinareo ny tsorakazo sy Izay nanendry azy.
The Lordes voyce cryeth vnto the citie, and the man of wisedome shall see thy name: Heare the rodde, and who hath appoynted it.
10 Mbola misy rakitry ny faharatsiana ihany va ao an-tranon’ ny ratsy fanahy Sy ny famarana tsy ampy izay voaozona?
Are yet the treasures of wickednes in the house of the wicked, and the scant measure, that is abominable?
11 Mety madio va aho, raha manana mizana mandainga Sy kitapo misy vato tsy marina?
Shall I iustifie the wicked balances, and the bag of deceitfull weightes?
12 Fa feno loza ny mpanankarenany, Mandainga ny mponina ao aminy, Ary ny lelany dia fitaka eo am-bavany.
For the rich men thereof are full of crueltie, and the inhabitants thereof haue spoken lyes, and their tongue is deceitfull in their mouth.
13 Izaho kosa dia hikapoka maharary anao Amin’ ny fandringanako anao noho ny helokao.
Therefore also will I make thee sicke in smiting thee, and in making thee desolate, because of thy sinnes.
14 Hianao hihinana, nefa tsy ho voky, Fa mbola ho ao anatinao ihany ny fahanoananao; Hampirina ianao, nefa tsy hahavonjy, Ary izay voavonjinao aza dia hatolotro ho amin’ ny sabatra.
Thou shalt eate and not be satisfied, and thy casting downe shall be in the mids of thee, and thou shalt take holde, but shalt not deliuer: and that which thou deliuerest, will I giue vp to the sworde.
15 Hiantso hamafy, nefa tsy hijinja; Hianao hanosihosy oliva, nefa tsy hihosotra diloilo, Ary hanosihosy ranom-boaloboka, nefa tsy hisotro divay;
Thou shalt sowe, but not reape: thou shalt treade the oliues, but thou shalt not anoint thee with oyle, and make sweete wine, but shalt not drinke wine.
16 Fa fatra-pitandrina ny lalàn’ i Omry Sy ny asan’ ny taranak’ i Ahaba rehetra ianareo Sady manaraka ny fisainany, Mba hanolorako anao ho figagana, Ary ny mponina any ho zavatra mampisitrisitra, Ka dia hitondra ny latsan’ ny oloko ianareo.
For the statutes of Omri are kept, and all the maner of the house of Ahab, and ye walke in their counsels, that I should make thee waste, and the inhabitants thereof an hissing: therefore ye shall beare the reproche of my people.
