< Mika 4 >
1 F’ie amo andro honka’eo, le horizañe ho abo amo vohitseo ty vohin-anjomba’ Iehovà, haonjoñe ambone’ o haboañeo; vaho hivovotse mb’ama’e mb’eo ondatio.
But in the last days it will come about that the mountain of the Lord's house will be placed on the top of the mountains, and be lifted up over the hills; and peoples will be flowing to it.
2 Le homb’eo ty fifeheañe maro hanao ty hoe: Antao hionjom-b’am-bohi’Iehovà mb’eo, mb’amy anjomban’Añahare’Iakobey. hañòha’e antikañ’ o sata’eo, hañaveloan-tika o lala’eo. Hionjoñe boake Tsione ao ty Hàke, vaho hirike Ierosalaime ao ty tsara’ Iehovà,
And a number of nations will go and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the Lord, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will give us knowledge of his ways and we will be guided by his word: for from Zion the law will go out, and the word of the Lord from Jerusalem.
3 hizaka añivo’ o kilakila ondatio vaho ho toroa’e lily o foko maozatse tsietoitane añeo. Le ho pehe’ iareo ho fangaly o fibarao naho ho fañeteke o lefo’ iareoo. Tsy hifañonjom-pibara o rofokoo, vaho tsy hiòke hialy ka.
And he will be judge between great peoples, and strong nations far away will be ruled by his decisions; their swords will be hammered into plough-blades and their spears into vine-knives: nations will no longer be lifting up their swords against one another, and knowledge of war will have gone for ever.
4 Songa hiambesatse ambane’ ty vahe’e t’indaty naho ambane’ i sakoa’ey eo, tsy ao ty hahahembañe iareo, fa nitsara ty falie’ Iehovà’ i Màroy.
But every man will be seated under his vine and under his fig-tree, and no one will be a cause of fear to them: for the mouth of the Lord of armies has said it.
5 Sindre hanjotik’ ami’ty añaran-drahare’e o kilakila’ ondatio; fe hañavelo ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika nainai’e donia tika.
For all the peoples will be walking, every one in the name of his god, and we will be walking in the name of the Lord our God for ever and ever.
6 Hatontoko amy andro zay, hoe t’Iehovà, ze mikoletra, naho havoriko ty nasiotse añe vaho i nanilofakoy.
In that day, says the Lord, I will get together her who goes with uncertain steps, I will get together her who has been sent away, and her on whom I have sent evil;
7 Hanoeko sehanga’e i nikoletray naho fifeheañe maozatse i nasiotsey. ie ho fehe’ Iehovà am-bohi’ i Tsione ao, henane zay naho ho nainai’e añe.
And I will make her whose steps were uncertain a small band, and her who was feeble a strong nation: and the Lord will be their King in Mount Zion from now and for ever.
8 Le ihe, ry Fitalakesañ’Abo i Lia-Raikey, ty haboa’ i anak’ ampela’ i Tsioney; eka, homb’ama’o mb’eo re; hitotsake eo i fifeheañe taoloy, ty fifeleha’ i Anak’ ampela’ Ierosalaimey.
And you, O tower of the flock, Ophel of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, even the earlier authority, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Ino ty ikoiakoiaha’o? Tsy amam-panjaka hao? Nihomake hao i Mpanoro azoy, ihe fihine’ ty fanivontivoñañe manahake ty fitsongoan-drakemba?
Now why are you crying so loudly? is there no king in you? has destruction come on your wise helper? so that pains have taken you like the pains of a woman in childbirth:
10 Minioniòra, mañeña, hisamaha’o, ry anak’ ampela’ i Tsione, manahake ty ampela mitsongo; fa hiavote’o henaneo i rovay, himoneñe an-kivok’ ao, am-para’ te mandoake e Bavele ao; añe irehe ho hahañe; añe ty hijebaña’ Iehovà azo am-pità’ o rafelahi’oo.
Be in pain, make sounds of grief, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in childbirth: for now you will go out of the town, living in the open country, and will come even to Babylon; there you will have salvation; there the Lord will make you free from the hands of your haters.
11 Ie henanekeo maro ty fifeheañe mifanontoñe hialy ama’o, manao ty hoe: Ee t’ie ho tivaeñe, naho hahafisamba i Tsione o fihainon-tikañeo.
And now a number of nations have come together against you, and they say, Let her be made unclean and let our eyes see the fate of Zion.
12 Fa tsy fohi’ iareo ty ereñere’ Iehovà; naho tsy apota’ iareo ty safiri’e; Ie ro nanontoñe iereo hoe ampemba an-toem-pamofohañe eo.
But they have no knowledge of the thoughts of the Lord, their minds are not able to see his purpose: for he has got them together like stems of grain to the crushing-floor.
13 Miongaha, mamofoha, ry anak’ ampela’ i Tsione; fa hanoeko viñe ty tsifa’o, naho hanoeko torisìke o hotro’oo; handemodemoke t’indaty maro; vaho hengae’o am’ Iehovà o nivokare’ iareo tsy too; ho amy Talè’ ty tane bey toiy ty vara’ iareo.
Up! and let the grain be crushed, O daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron and your feet brass, and a number of peoples will be broken by you, and you will give up their increase to the Lord and their wealth to the Lord of all the earth.
