Mika 7
1 Lozako! fa efa tonga toy ny fiotazam-boankazo aho Sy toy ny fitsimponam-boaloboka, Tsy misy salohy hohanina, Na aviavy mialin-taona, izay irin’ ny fanahiko,
Woe to me, for I have become just like one who gleans the clusters of the vintage in autumn. There is no cluster of grapes to consume; my soul desired figs out of season.
2 Lany tsy misy amin’ ny tany intsony ny tsara fanahy; Eny, tsy misy olo-marina ao amin’ ny olombelona; Samy manotrika handatsa-drà avokoa izy, Eny, mihaza ny rahalahiny amin’ ny harato izy rehetra.
The holy ones pass away from the land, and there is no one righteous among men. All wait in ambush for blood; a man hunts his brother to death.
3 Vonona hanao ratsy ny tànany; Mila ny mpanapaka, Azon-kolikoly ny mpitsara, Ary ny lehibe milaza ny fitsiriritan’ ny fanahiny, Koa izany no entiny mandrarirary azy.
The evil of their hands, they call good. The leader is demanding, and the judge is yielding, and the great is speaking the desire of his soul, and they have confused it.
4 Na dia ny tsara indrindra ao aminy aza dia toy ny roy, Ary na dia ny mahitsy indrindra ao aminy aza dia ratsy noho ny fefy tsilo; Avy ny andron’ ny tilinao, izay hamaliana anao; Amin’ izany dia vao ho very hevitra ianao.
Whoever is best among them is like a thorny plant, and he who is righteous is like a thorny hedge. The day of your inspection, your visitation, arrives. Now will be their ruination.
5 Aza matoky namana ianareo, Aza mahazo am-po izay sakaiza mahazatra; Fa ambeno ny varavaran’ ny vavanao na dia amin’ izay andefimandrinao aza.
Do not be willing to believe a friend. And do not be willing to confide in a commander. From her, who sleeps in your bosom, keep the doors of your mouth closed.
6 Fa ny zanakalahy manamavo ny rainy, Ny zanakavavy mitsangan-kanohitra ny reniny, Ary ny vinantovavy hanohitra ny rafozani-vavy; Ary ny ankohonan’ ny olona ihany no fahavalony.
For the son acts with contempt for the father, and the daughter rises up against her mother, the daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law, and a man’s enemies are those of his own household.
7 Fa izaho kosa dia hanandrandra an’ i Jehovah, Eny, hiandry an’ Andriamanitry ny famonjena ahy aho; Andriamanitro no hihaino ahy.
But I will look towards the Lord. I will wait for God, my Savior. My God will hear me.
8 Aza mifaly ahy, ry fahavaloko, Fa na dia lavo aza aho, mbola hiarina ihany; Raha mitoetra ao amin’ ny maizina aho, Dia Jehovah no fahazavana ho ahy.
You, my enemy, should not rejoice over me because I have fallen. I will rise up, when I sit in darkness. The Lord is my light.
9 Ny fahatezeran’ i Jehovah dia hiaretako ihany, Fa efa nanota taminy aho, Ambara-pandahany ny teniko Sy hanomezany rariny ho ahy; Hamoaka ahy ho amin’ ny mazava Izy, Ka ho faly aho mahita ny fahamarinany.
I will carry the wrath of the Lord, because I have sinned against him, until he may judge my case and execute judgment for me. He will lead me into the light. I will behold his justice.
10 Dia hahita izany ilay fahavaloko ka hosaronan-kenatra, Dia ilay nanao tamiko hoe: Aiza Izay Jehovah Andriamanitrao? Ho faly mahita azy ny masoko; Ankehitriny dia ho fanitsakitsaka toy ny fotaka eny an-dalambe izy.
And my enemy will look, and she will be covered with confusion, she who says to me, “Where is the Lord your God?” My eyes will look upon her. Now she will be trampled underfoot like the mud of the streets.
11 He ny andro hananganana ny mandanao! Amin’ izany andro izany dia hitarina ny faritra.
The day that your walls will be rebuilt, in that day the law will be far away.
12 Amin’ izany andro izany koa dia hanatona anao ny olona Avy any Asyria sy avy any amin’ ny tanànan’ i Egypta, Eny, hatrany Egypta ka hatramin’ ny Ony, Ary hatramin’ ny ranomasina ka hatramin’ ny ranomasina, Ary hatramin’ ny tendrombohitra ka hatramin’ ny tendrombohitra.
In that day also, they will come towards you even from Assur, and even to the fortified cities, and from the fortified cities even to the river, and from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
13 Nefa ho lao ny tany noho ny amin’ ny mponina eo aminy, Dia noho ny vokatry ny asany.
And the land will be in desolation, because of its inhabitants and because of the fruit of their intentions.
14 Ny tehinao no ento miandry ny olonao, Dia ny ondry lovanao, Izay monina mitokana, dia any an’ ala ao an-tampon’ i Karmela; Aoka handrasana any Basana sy Gileada ireny Toy ny tamin’ ny andro taloha ela.
With your rod, pasture your people, the flock of your inheritance, living alone in the narrow forest, in the midst of Carmel. They will graze in Bashan and Gilead, as in the ancient days.
15 Toy ny tamin’ ny andro nivoahanao avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta No hanehoako azy zava-mahagaga.
As in the days of your departure from the land of Egypt, I will reveal miracles to him.
16 Hahita izany ny jentilisa, Ka hahamenatra azy ny heriny rehetra; Hitampim-bava izy, Ho tonga marenina ny sofiny.
The nations will look, and they will be confounded at the strength of them all. They will place hand over mouth; their ears will be deaf.
17 Hilelaka ny vovoka toy ny menarana izy; Hiala amin-kovitra avy ao amin’ ny fiarovany mafy tahaka ny biby mikisaka amin’ ny tany izy; Jehovah Andriamanitsika dia hohatoniny amin-kovitra, Eny, hatahotra Anao izy.
They will lick the dust like serpents, and, like the creeping things of the earth, they will be disturbed in their houses. They will dread the Lord our God, and they will fear you.
18 Iza no Andriamanitra tahaka Anao, Izay mamela heloka Sady mandalo ny fahadisoan’ ny sisa amin’ ny lovany? Tsy mitana ny fahatezerany ho mandrakizay Izy, Fa tia famindram-po.
What God is like you, who takes away iniquity and passes over the sin of the remnant of your inheritance? No longer will he send forth his fury, because he is willing to be merciful.
19 Hamindra fo amintsika indray Izy Ka hanitsakitsaka ny fahotantsika, Eny, harianao ho any amin’ ny ranomasina lalina ny fahotany rehetra.
He will turn back and have mercy on us. He will put away our iniquities, and he will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.
20 Hanefa fahamarinana ho an’ i Jakoba Hianao Sy famindram-po ho an’ i Abrahama, Dia ilay nianiananao tamin’ ny razanay hatramin’ ny andro taloha ela.
You will give the truth to Jacob, mercy to Abraham, which you swore to our fathers from the ancient days.
