Mika 1
1 Ty tsara’ Iehovà niheo amy Mikà nte-Moresete tañ’andro’ Iotame naho i Akhaze vaho Iekezkia mpanjaka’ Iehoda; i nioni’e ty amy Somerone naho Ierosalaimey.
The word of the Lord that came to Micheas the Morasthite, in the days of Joathan, Achaz, and Ezechias, kings of Juda: which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Kila mijanjiña ry ondatio; mañaoña ry tane, naho ze hene ama’e ao; fa hanesek’ anahareo t’Iehovà Talè, i Talè boak’añ’Anjomba’e Masiñe.
Hear, all ye people: and let the earth give ear, and all that is therein: and let the Lord God be a witness to you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 Heheke te miavotse i toe’ey t’Iehovà, hizotso mb’etoa, handialia o haboa’ ty tane toio.
For behold the Lord will come forth out of his place: and he will come down, and will tread upon the high places of the earth.
4 Hitranak’ ambane’e eo o vohitseo, naho ho vaky o vavataneo, manahake ty takafotse añatrefa’ ty afo eo, naho rano nadoandoañe am-piroroñañe.
And the mountains shall be melted under him: and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as waters that run down a steep place.
5 Fonga ty amo fiolà’ Iakobeo, naho o tahi’ i anjomba’ Israeleio; Ino i hakeo’ Iakobey? Tsy i Somerone hao? Aia o ankaboa’ Iehodao? Tsy e Ierosalaime hao?
For the wickedness of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the wickedness of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Juda? are they not Jerusalem?
6 Aa le hanoeko fivotrim-porompotse an-tetek’ ao ty Somerone, ho tanem-bahe; naho haparatsiako am-bavatane ao o vato’eo, vaho haboako o mananta’eo.
And I will make Samaria as a heap of stones in the field when a vineyard is planted: and I will bring down the stones thereof into the valley, and will lay her foundations bare.
7 Ho demodemoheñe iaby o samposampo’eo, le ho forototoeñe añ’afo ao o nibanabanaeñe ama’eo; ho rotsaheko iaby o saren-drahare’eo, fa natonto’e an-tamben-karapilo, le hibalike ho tamben-tsimirirañe.
And all her graven things shall be cut in pieces, and all her wages shall be burnt with fire, and I will bring to destruction all her idols: for they were gathered together of the hire of a harlot, and unto the hire of a harlot they shall return.
8 Aa le hangoihoy naho hikoiakoiake iraho, hihalo naho hibongy te handeha; hanao fitrèn-drimo vaho fandalàm-boron-tsatrañe.
Therefore will I lament and howl: I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and a mourning like the ostriches.
9 Tsy lefe hahàñe o fere’eo, fa nandakake mb’e Iehoda ao; fa nahatakatse ty lalambei’ ondatikoo; Eka, pak’ e Ierosalaime ao.
Because her wound is desperate, because it is come even to Juda, it hath touched the gate of my people even to Jerusalem.
10 Ko taroñe’o e Gate añe, ko mirovetse; mivarimbariña an-davenok’ ao ty amy anjomba’ i Ofrày.
Declare ye it not in Geth, weep ye not with tears: in the house of Dust sprinkle yourselves with dust.
11 Mihelaña mb’eo ry mpimoneñe e Safire ao; ami’ty hameñaram-piboridaña’o; tsy lefe ty fivoratsaha’ o mpimone’ i Tsa’ananeo; mangololoike ty Bete’haetsele hasinta’e ama’o ty fijohaña’o.
And pass away, O thou that dwellest in the Beautiful place, covered with thy shame: she went not forth that dwelleth in the confines: the House adjoining shall receive mourning from you, which stood by herself.
12 Mifeak’ am-pitamàñe hasoa o mpimone’ i Maròteo fe nivotrak’ an-dalambei’ Ierosalaime eo boak’ am’ Iehovà ty hankàñe.
For she is become weak unto good that dwelleth in bitterness: for evil is come down from the Lord into the gate of Jerusalem.
13 Feheo amo sareteo o soavalao, ry mpimone’ i Lakìse, ihe namototse ty hakeo’ i anak’ ampela’ i Tsioney, vaho nizoeñe ama’o o fiolà’ Israeleo.
A tumult of chariots hath astonished the inhabitants of Lachis: it is the beginning of sin to the daughter of Sion, for in thee were found the crimes of Israel.
14 Aa le ho banabanae’o ravoravom-piavotañe ty Moresete-Gate; ho famañahiañe amo mpanjaka’ Israeleo o anjomba’ i Akzìbeo.
Therefore shall she send messengers to the inheritance of Geth: the houses of lying to deceive the kings of Israel.
15 Mbore haseseko ama’o ty mpitavañe, ry mpimone’ i Maresà; himoak’ Adolame ao ty enge’ Israele.
Yet will I bring an heir to thee that dwellest in Maresa: even to Odollam shall the glory of Israel come.
16 Mipeaha irehe, miharata ty amo anake mahafale azoo; indrao ty hasola’o hifanahak’ ami’ty koáke, ie hieng’azo mb’an-drohy mb’eo.
Make thee bald, and be polled for thy delicate children: enlarge thy baldness as the eagle: for they are carried into captivity from thee.
