Miquéias 1
1 Palavra do Senhor, que veiu a Miqueas, morasthita, nos dias de Jothão, Achaz e Ezequias, reis de Judah, a qual elle viu sobre Samaria e Jerusalem.
And the word of the Lord came to Michaeas the son of Morasthi, in the days of Joatham, and Achaz, and Ezekias, kings of Juda, concerning what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Ouvi, todos os povos, attenta tu, terra, e a plenitude d'ella, e seja o Senhor Jehovah testemunha contra vós, o Senhor, desde o templo da sua sanctidade.
Hear [these] words, you people; and let the earth give heed, and all that are in it: and the Lord God shall be amongst you for a testimony, the Lord out of his holy habitation.
3 Porque eis que o Senhor sae do seu logar, e descerá, e pizará as alturas da terra.
For, behold, the Lord comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and will go upon the high places of the earth.
4 E os montes debaixo d'elle se derreterão, e os valles se fenderão, como a cera diante do fogo, como as aguas que se precipitam n'um abysmo.
And the mountains shall be shaken under him, and the valleys shall melt like wax before the fire, and as water rushing down a declivity.
5 Tudo isto por causa da prevaricação de Jacob, e dos peccados da casa de Israel: quem é o auctor da rebellião de Jacob? não é Samaria? e quem o das alturas de Judah? não é Jerusalem?
All these [calamities are] for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sin of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what is the sin of the house of Juda? [is it] not Jerusalem?
6 Por isso farei de Samaria um montão de pedras do campo, uma terra de plantar vinhas, e farei rebolar as suas pedras no valle, e descobrirei os seus fundamentos.
Therefore I will make Samaria [as] a store-house of the fruits of the field, and [as] a planting of a vineyard: and I will utterly demolish her stones, and I will expose her foundations.
7 E todas as suas imagens de esculptura serão esmiuçadas, e todos os seus salarios serão queimados pelo fogo, e de todos os seus idolos eu farei uma assolação, porque da paga de prostitutas os ajuntou, e para a paga de prostitutas voltarão.
And they shall cut in pieces all the graven images, and all that she has hired they shall burn with fire, and I will utterly destroy all her idols: because she has gathered of the hires of fornication, and of the hires of fornication has she amassed [wealth].
8 Por isso lamentarei, e uivarei, andarei despojado e nú: farei lamentação como de dragões, e pranto como de abestruzes.
Therefore shall she lament and wail, she shall go barefooted, and [being] naked she shall make lamentation as [that] of serpents, and mourning as of the daughters of sirens.
9 Porque a sua chaga é incuravel, porque chegou até Judah: estendeu-se até á porta do meu povo, até Jerusalem.
For her plague has become grievous; for it has come even to Juda; and has reached to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 Não o annuncieis em Gath, nem choreis muito: revolve-te no pó, na casa de Aphra.
You that are in Geth, exalt not yourselves, and you Enakim, do not rebuild from [the ruins of] the house in derision: sprinkle dust [in the place of] your laughter.
11 Passa, ó moradora de Saphir, com nudez vergonhosa: a moradora de Zaanan não sae para fóra; o pranto de Beth-ezel receberá de vós a sua estancia.
The inhabitant of Sennaar, fairly inhabiting her cities, came not forth to mourn for the house next to her: she shall receive of you the stroke of grief.
12 Porque a moradora de Maroth teve dôr pelo bem; porque desceu do Senhor o mal até á porta de Jerusalem.
Who has begun [to act] for good to her that dwells in sorrow? for calamities have come down from the Lord upon the gates of Jerusalem,
13 Ata os animaes ligeiros ao carro, ó moradora de Lachis (esta é o principio do peccado para a filha de Sião), porque em ti se acharam as transgressões de Israel.
[even] a sound of chariots and horsemen: the inhabitants of Lachis, she is the leader of sin to the daughter of Sion: for in you were found the transgressions of Israel.
14 Por isso dá presentes a Moreshethgath: as casas de Achzib serão casas de mentira aos reis de Israel.
Therefore shall he cause men to be sent forth as far as the inheritance of Geth, [even] vain houses; they are become vanity to the kings of Israel;
15 Ainda te trarei um herdeiro, ó moradora de Maresha: chegar-se-ha até Adullam, para gloria de Israel.
until they bring the heirs, O inhabitant of Lachis: the inheritance shall reach to Odollam, [even] the glory of the daughter of Israel.
16 Faze-te calva, e tosquia-te, por causa dos filhos das tuas delicias: alarga a tua calva como a aguia, porque te foram levados captivos.
Shave your hair, and make yourself bald for your delicate children; increase your widowhood as an eagle; for [your people] are gone into captivity from you.
