< Mika 2 >

1 Hankàñe amo mpikilily hatsivokarañeo, o mikitro-draha an-tihi’eo! Ie berabera andro le mañeneke kanao am-pità’ iareo ty haozarañe.
Woe vnto them, that imagine iniquitie, and worke wickednesse vpon their beddes: when the morning is light they practise it because their hande hath power.
2 Mihañe teteke, le mitavañe, naho anjomba, le minday; aa le forekekè’ iereo ty fokontokoñe rekets’ i akiba’ey, vaho t’indaty naho i lova’ey.
And they couet fields, and take them by violence, and houses, and take them away: so they oppresse a man and his house, euen man and his heritage.
3 Aa le hoe ty nafè’ Iehovà: Inao, safirieko hekoheko ty fifokoañe toy, le tsy haha-votso-­bozoñ’ ama’e nahareo, vaho ko mañavelo an-drengevoke; fa ho san-kankàñe.
Therefore thus saieth the Lord, Beholde, against this familie haue I deuised a plague, whereout yee shall not plucke your neckes, and ye shall not go so proudly, for this time is euill.
4 Amy andro zay le handrazan-drehake ty ama’o iereo, naho handala am-pirovetañe ty hoe: Vata’e rotsake zahay; novae’e ty anjara’ ondatikoo, akore ty nanintaha’e amako! Tsy ho navaha’e o tete’aio? te mone zarae’e.
In that daye shall they take vp a parable against you, and lament with a dolefull lamentation, and say, We be vtterly wasted: hee hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he taken it away to restore it vnto mee? he hath deuided our fieldes.
5 Aa le tsy eo ty hikozozotse talim-panjeheañe an-kitsapak’ ami’ty valobohò’ Iehovà ho azo.
Therefore thou shalt haue none that shall cast a corde by lot in the Congregation of the Lord.
6 Ko mitaroñe, hoe ty taroñe’ iareo; Tsy hitaroña’iareo o raha zao, tsy mone ho salareñe.
They that prophecied, Prophecie ye not. They shall not prophecie to them, neither shall they take shame.
7 Hoe ty volañeñe ry anjomba’ Iakobe, Tsy mahaliñe hao t’i Arofo’ Iehovà? Sata’e hao rezao? Tsy mahasoa ty mpañavelo an-kavantañañe hao o volakoo?
O thou that art named of the house of Iaakob, is the Spirite of the Lord shortened? are these his workes? are not my wordes good vnto him that walketh vprightly?
8 Fe nitroatse ho rafelahy omale ondatikoo; endahe’ areo ty sarimbo reketse ty akanjo’ ondaty mitoañe am-panintsiñañeo, o mimpoly boak’añ’alio.
But hee that was yesterday my people, is risen vp on the other side, as against an enemie: they spoyle the beautifull garment from them that passe by peaceably, as though they returned from the warre.
9 Ampisitahe’ areo o rakemba’ ondatikoo; songa boak’ añ’anjomba’e soa fihamiñe; asinta’ areo amo keleia’ iareoo kitro-katroke ty engeko.
The women of my people haue ye cast out from their pleasant houses, and from their childre haue ye taken away my glorie continually.
10 Miongaha! Akia! fa tsy fitofà’ areo ty atoy; i haloera’ey ty maharotsake am-pandrotsahañe mitivontivoñe.
Arise and depart, for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, euen with a sore destruction.
11 Naho teo ty mpañorike tioke naho vande, nandañitse ami’ty hoe: Hitaroñe divay naho toake ama’ areo iraho, ie ty hatao mpilañoñe am’ondaty retoañe.
If a man walke in the Spirit, and would lie falsely, saying, I wil prophecie vnto thee of wine, and of strong drinke, he shall euen be the prophet of this people.
12 Toe havoriko irehe, ry Iakobe, ihe iaby; toe hatontoko ty sengaha’ Israele; hatraoko hoe añondry am-piandrazañe ao; manahake ty lia-raik’ an-golobo’e ao; higoreongoreoñe ty am’ondatio.
I will surely gather thee wholy, O Iaakob: I will surely gather the remnant of Israel: I will put them together as the sheepe of Bozrah, euen as the flocke in the mids of their folde: the cities shall be full of brute of the men.
13 Miakatse aolo’ iareo mb’eo t’i Mpampiboroboñake; miboroboñake mb’eo iereo, mivavatse mb’an-dalambey naho miakatse añe; vaho miary aolo mb’eo ty Mpanjaka’ iareo, Iehovà ty mpiaolo’ iareo.
The breaker vp shall come vp before them: they shall breake out, and passe by the gate, and goe out by it, and their King shall goe before them, and the Lord shalbe vpon their heades.
