< UMikha 3 >
1 Lapho-ke mina ngathi, “Lalelani lina bakhokheli bakoJakhobe, lina babusi bendlu yako-Israyeli. Ukulunga akumelanga likwazi na,
Kowos mwet kol lun Israel, porongeyu! Pwayeiya uh kowos pa ac arulana nunku ac suk ma suwohs,
2 lina elizonda okuhle lithande okubi; elixebula isikhumba ebantwini bami lenyama emathanjeni abo;
a kowos tuh srunga ma wo ac lungse ma koluk. Kowos sukela kulun mwet luk ke elos moul na, ac takusla ikwalos liki srelos.
3 lina elibadla inyama abantu bami, lihlubule isikhumba sabo lichoboze lamathambo abo abe yizicucu; elibaqumaquma njengenyama yepani, lanjengenyama yembiza?”
Kowos kangla mwet luk. Kowos kolosla kolo kaclos, koteya srelos, ac pakpukiya manolos oana ikwa ma ac manman in sie tup.
4 Lapho-ke bazakhala kuThixo, kodwa kayikubaphendula. Ngalesosikhathi uzabafihlela ubuso bakhe ngenxa yobubi ababenzileyo.
Pacl se ac tuku ke kowos fah wowoyak nu sin LEUM GOD, tuh El ac fah tia topuk kowos. El ac fah tia lohng pre lowos, mweyen kowos oru ma na koluk.
5 Nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: “Okunjengabaphrofethi, abedukisa abantu bami, umuntu angabapha ukudla, bamemezela ‘ukuthula’ nxa engabaphi balungisela ukumhlasela ngempi.
Mwet luk uh kiapweyukla sin mwet palu su wuleang nu sin mwet ma moli nu selos mu ac oasr misla, ac elos aksangengye mwet ma tia moli nu selos mu ac oasr mweun. A LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet palu ingan,
6 Ngakho ubusuku buzakwehlela phezu kwenu, kungekho mibono, kanye lomnyama, kungekho kuhlahlula. Ilanga lizabatshonela abaphrofethi, losuku luzakuba mnyama kubo.
“Mwet palu, len lowos apkuran in safla. Faht uh ac tili fowos. Mweyen kowos kiapwela mwet luk, ac fah tia sifilpa oasr ku lowos in liye aruruma, ac kowos ac fah tia sifilpa ku in palye kutena ma.”
7 Ababonisayo bazayangeka labahlahluli babe lenhloni. Bonke bazamboza ubuso babo ngoba kungelampendulo evela kuNkulunkulu.”
Elos su palye pacl fahsru ac fah akmwekinyeyuk ke sripen palu lalos tia pwaye. Elos ac fah mwekinla mweyen God El tia topkolos.
8 Kodwa mina ngiphiwe amandla, loMoya kaThixo, lokulunga kanye lesibindi, ukuba ngitshele uJakhobe ukona kwakhe lo-Israyeli isono sakhe.
A funu nga, LEUM GOD El nwekyula ke ngun ac ku lal, ac ase nu sik in kalem ke nununku suwohs, ac pulaik in fahk nu sin mwet Israel lah mea ma koluk lalos.
9 Zwanini lokhu lina bakhokheli bendlu kaJakhobe, lani babusi bendlu ka-Israyeli, eleyisa ukulunga lihlanekele konke okuqondileyo;
Porongeyu, kowos mwet kol lun Israel, kowos su srunga nununku suwohs ac furokla ma pwaye nu ke ma sutuu.
10 elakha iZiyoni ngokuchitha igazi; leJerusalema ngobubi.
Kowos musai Jerusalem, siti lun God, fin pwelung in akmas ac nununku sesuwos.
11 Abakhokheli bayo bahlulela ngokufunjathiswa, abaphristi bayo bafundisela inhlawulo, labaphrofethi bayo baphrofithela imali; ikanti bathembele kuThixo njalo bathi, “Kanti uThixo kakho phakathi kwethu na? Akulancithakalo engasehlela.”
Mwet leum lun acn uh oru nununku lalos wiwi lupan mol nu selos, ac mwet tol elos lungas Ma Sap in eis mwe moul kac, ac mwet palu oru fahkak lalos in mol nu selos. A elos inge nukewa fahk mu LEUM GOD El welulos. Elos fahk, “Wangin mwe sensen fah sun kut. LEUM GOD El wi kut.”
12 Ngakho-ke ngenxa yenu, iZiyoni izalinywa njengensimu, iJerusalema izakuba yinqwaba yemfucuza, intaba yethempeli ibe yindunduma eyande izixukwana.
Na pa ke sripowos, Zion ac fah pukpukyak oana sie acn in ima, ac Jerusalem ac fah oana sie yol in ma kulawi, ac fin tohktok se ma Tempul oan we ac fah ekla sie insak.
