< Mika 1 >
1 Ny tenin’ i Jehovah izay tonga tamin’ i Morastita tamin’ ny andro nanjakan’ i Jotama sy Ahaza ary Hezetia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, dia ilay hitany ny amin’ i Samaria sy Jerosalema.
A word of YHWH that has been to Micah the Morashite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, Hezekiah, kings of Judah, that he has seen concerning Samaria and Jerusalem:
2 Samia mihaino ianareo, ry firenena rehetra; Atongilano ny sofinareo, ry tany sy izay zavatra rehetra eo aminy; Ary aoka Jehovah Tompo no ho vavolombelona hanameloka anareo, Dia Jehovah avy ao amin’ ny tempoliny masìna.
Hear, O peoples, all of them! Attend, O earth, and its fullness, And Lord YHWH is against you for a witness, The Lord from His holy temple.
3 Fa, indro, Jehovah mivoaka avy ao amin’ ny fitoerany Ary midìna ka mandia ny havoana amin’ ny tany.
For behold, YHWH is going out from His place, And He has come down, And has trodden on high places of earth.
4 Miempo ao ambaniny ny tendrombohitra, Ary mivava ny lohasaha, Tahaka ny savoka taninin’ ny afo, Sy tahaka ny rano akorotsaka eny amin’ ny hantsana.
The mountains have been melted under Him, And the valleys split themselves, As wax from the presence of fire, As waters cast down by a slope.
5 Noho ny fahadisoan’ i Jakoba sy ny fahotan’ ny taranak’ Isiraely no isian’ izany rehetra izany. Iza no nahadiso an’ i Jakoba? Tsy Samaria va? Ary iza no fitoerana avon’ i Joda? Tsy Jerosalema va?
For the transgression of Jacob [is] all this, And for the sins of the house of Israel. What [is] the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what the high places of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
6 Koa Samaria dia hataoko korontam-bato any an-tsaha Sy tany fambolem-boaloboka; Ary hakorotsako ho any an-dohasaha ny vatony, Ka haharihariko ny fanorenany.
“And I have set Samaria for a heap of the field, For plantations of a vineyard, And poured out into a valley her stones, And her foundations I uncover.
7 Hotorotoroina ny sampiny voasokitra rehetra, Ary hodorana amin’ ny afo ny tanginy rehetra, Sady hofoanako ny sampiny rehetra; Tangin’ ny vehivavy janga no nanangonany ireny, Ary hody ho tangin’ ny vehivavy janga indray izy.
And all her carved images are beaten down, And all her wages are burned with fire, And all her idols I make a desolation, For from the wage of a harlot she gathered, and to the wage of a harlot they return.”
8 Koa izany no hitomaniako sy hidradradradrako, Ka handeha sady horobaina no mitanjaka aho; Hikaonkaona toy ny amboadia aho Ary hikiakiaka toy ny ostritsa.
For this I lament and howl, I go spoiled and naked, I make a lamentation like dragons, And a mourning like daughters of an ostrich.
9 Fa tsy azo sitranina ny ferin’ i Samaria; Fa mihatra amin’ i Joda izany, Ary mahatratra ny vavahadin’ ny oloko aza, dia any Jerosalema.
For mortal [are] her wounds, For it has come to Judah, It has come to a gate of My people—to Jerusalem.
10 Aza ambaranareo any Gata izany, Aza mitomany akory! Mihosinkosina vovoka ao Beti-le-afra aho.
In Gath do not tell—in Acco do not weep, In Beth-Aphrah, roll yourself in dust.
11 Mandehana mitanjaka mitondra henatra, ry mponina ao Safira; Tsy mivoaka ny mponina ao Zanana; Ny fisaonan’ i Beti-haezela no misakana anareo tsy hijanona ao.
Pass over for you, O inhabitant of Shaphir, Naked one of shame. The inhabitant of Zaanan has not gone out, The lamentation of Beth-Ezel takes from you its standing.
12 Fa malahelo ny soa ny mponina ao Marota, Satria loza no efa nidina avy tamin’ i Jehovah ho ao am-bavahadin’ i Jerosalema.
For the inhabitant of Maroth has stayed for good, For calamity has come down from YHWH to the gate of Jerusalem.
13 Fehezo amin’ ny soavaly haingam-pandeha ny kalesy, ry mponina ao Lakisy; Niandohan’ ny fahotan’ i Ziona zanakavavy iny, Fa tao aminao no nahitana ny fahadisoan’ Isiraely.
Bind the chariot to a swift beast, O inhabitant of Lachish, The beginning of sin [is] she to the daughter of Zion, For in you have been found the transgressions of Israel.
14 Koa izany no hanomezanao taratasy fisaorana ho an’ i Moresetagata; Ranotrambo ho an’ ny mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely ireo tranon’ i Akziba.
Therefore you give presents to Moresheth-Gath, The houses of Achzib become a lying thing to the kings of Israel.
15 Mbola hitondrako olon-kandova ianao. Ry mponina ao Maresa; Ho tonga hatrany Adolama aza ny voninahitr’ Isiraely.
Yet I bring the possessor to you, O inhabitant of Mareshah, The glory of Israel comes to Adullam.
16 Miheteza sy mikakasa Noho ny zanakao nahafinaritra; Halehibiazo ny solanao ho toy ny an’ ny voltora, Fa lasan-ko babo niala taminao izy.
Make bald and shave, for your delightful sons, Enlarge your baldness as an eagle, For they have removed from you!
