< Mihej 1 >
1 Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Miheju Moreseæaninu za vremena Joatama, Ahaza i Jezekije, careva Judinijeh, što vidje za Samariju i za Jerusalim.
THE word of the Lord that came to Micah the Morasthite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, which he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Èujte, svi narodi, slušaj, zemljo i što je na njoj, i Gospod Bog da vam je svjedok, Gospod iz svete crkve svoje.
Hear, all ye people; hearken, O earth, and all that therein is: and let the Lord God be witness against you, the Lord from his holy temple.
3 Jer, gle, Gospod izlazi iz mjesta svojega, i siæi æe, i hodiæe po visinama zemaljskim.
For, behold, the Lord cometh forth out of his place, and will come down, and tread upon the high places of the earth.
4 I gore æe se rastopiti pred njim, i doline æe se rasjesti, kao vosak od ognja i kao voda što teèe niz strmen.
And the mountains shall be molten under him, and the valleys shall be cleft, as wax before the fire, and as the waters that are poured down a steep place.
5 Sve je to za zloèinstvo Jakovljevo i za grijehe doma Izrailjeva. Koje je zloèinstvo Jakovljevo? nije li Samarija? koje su visine Judine? nije li Jerusalim?
For the transgression of Jacob is all this, and for the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? is it not Samaria? and what are the high places of Judah? are they not Jerusalem?
6 Zato æu uèiniti od Samarije gomilu u polju da se sade vinogradi, i pobacaæu kamenje njezino u dolinu i otkriæu joj temelje.
Therefore I will make Samaria as an heap of the field, and as plantings of a vineyard: and I will pour down the stones thereof into the valley, and I will discover the foundations thereof.
7 I svi rezani likovi njezini razbiæe se, i svi æe se darovi njezini sažeæi ognjem, i sve æu idole njezine potrti, jer od plate kurvarske nakupi, i opet æe biti plata kurvarska.
And all the graven images thereof shall be beaten to pieces, and all the hires thereof shall be burned with the fire, and all the idols thereof will I lay desolate: for she gathered it of the hire of an harlot, and they shall return to the hire of an harlot.
8 Zato æu plakati i ridati; hodiæu svuèen i go; plakaæu kao zmajevi i tužiæu kao sove.
Therefore I will wail and howl, I will go stripped and naked: I will make a wailing like the dragons, and mourning as the owls.
9 Jer joj se rane ne mogu iscijeliti, doðoše do Jude, dopriješe do vrata mojega naroda, do Jerusalima.
For her wound is incurable; for it is come unto Judah; he is come unto the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 Ne javljajte u Gatu, ne plaèite; u Vit-Afri valjaj se po prahu.
Declare ye it not at Gath, weep ye not at all: in the house of Aphrah roll thyself in the dust.
11 Izidi, stanovnice Safirska, s golom sramotom; stanovnica Sananska neæe izaæi; žalost Vet-ezilska neæe vam dati stanka.
Pass ye away, thou inhabitant of Saphir, having thy shame naked: the inhabitant of Zaanan came not forth in the mourning of Beth-ezel; he shall receive of you his standing.
12 Jer stanovnica Marotska tuži za svojim dobrom. Jer siðe zlo od Gospoda do vrata Jerusalimskih.
For the inhabitant of Maroth waited carefully for good: but evil came down from the Lord unto the gate of Jerusalem.
13 Upregni brze konje u kola, stanovnice Lahiska, koja si poèetak grijehu kæeri Sionskoj, jer se u tebi naðoše zloèinstva Izrailjeva.
O thou inhabitant of Lachish, bind the chariot to the swift beast: she is the beginning of the sin to the daughter of Zion: for the transgressions of Israel were found in thee.
14 Zato pošlji dare Moresetu Gatskom; domovi Ahsivski prevariæe careve Izrailjeve.
Therefore shalt thou give presents to Moresheth-gath: the houses of Achzib shall be a lie to the kings of Israel.
15 Još æu ti dovesti našljednika, stanovnice Mariska; doæi æe do Odolama, slave Izrailjeve.
Yet will I bring an heir unto thee, O inhabitant of Mareshah: he shall come unto Adullam the glory of Israel.
16 Naèini se æelava i ostrizi se za milom djecom svojom; raširi æelu svoju kao orao, jer se vode od tebe u ropstvo.
Make thee bald, and poll thee for thy delicate children; enlarge thy baldness as the eagle; for they are gone into captivity from thee.
