< 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 it shall come to pass in the last days That the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established at the head of the mountains, And exalted above the hills; And the nations shall flow 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 many nations shall go, saying, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, To the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us his ways, And that we may walk in his paths!” For from Zion shall go forth a law, And the word of Jehovah 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.
He shall be a judge of many nations, And an umpire of many kingdoms afar off. They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks; Nation shall not lift up the sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war any more.
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 they shall sit every one under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And none shall make them afraid; The mouth of Jehovah of hosts hath spoken it.
5 Sindre hanjotik’ ami’ty añaran-drahare’e o kilakila’ ondatio; fe hañavelo ami’ty tahina’ Iehovà Andrianañaharen-tika nainai’e donia tika.
Though all the nations walk every one in the name of its God, Yet will we walk in the name of Jehovah 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, saith Jehovah, I will gather the halting, And the far scattered I will assemble, And those whom I have afflicted.
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.
I will make the halting a remnant, And the far scattered a strong nation; And Jehovah shall reign over them in mount Zion, Henceforth, even forever.
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 thou, O tower of the flock, O hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come, To thee shall come the former dominion, Even 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?
And now why dost thou cry aloud? Is there no king within thee? Have thy counsellors perished, That pangs have taken hold of thee, as of a woman in travail?
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.
Yea, writhe, and be in anguish, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail! For now shalt thou go forth from the city, and dwell in the field; Thou shalt go even to Babylon; Yet there shalt thou be delivered. Jehovah will redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
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.
Now many nations gather themselves against thee, Who say, Let her be polluted, And let our eyes gaze upon 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 know not the thoughts of Jehovah, And understand not his purposes; For he gathereth them as sheaves into the thrashing-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.
Arise and thrash, O daughter of Zion! For I will make thy horns iron, And thy hoofs brass; Thou shalt beat in pieces many nations, And thou shalt devote their spoils to Jehovah, Their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
