Miikaah 2
1 Waxaa hoogay kuwa xumaanta ka fikira oo waxyaalaha sharka ah sariirahooda ku hindisa. Markii waagu beryo ayay sameeyaan, maxaa yeelay, taas gacantooda baa xoog u leh.
Terrible things will happen to you who lie awake at night, planning to do wicked things. You get up at dawn, and you do those things, [as soon as] you are able to do them.
2 Oo waxay damcaan beero, kolkaasay xoog ku qabsadaan, oo waxay damcaan guryo oo way iska qaataan, oo waxay dulmaan nin iyo reerkiis, iyo xataa nin iyo dhaxalkiis.
You want fields [that belong to other people], so you seize them; you also take their houses. You cheat people to get their homes, taking away the property that belongs to their families.
3 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Bal eega, waxaan hindisay belaayo qoyskan ka gees ah, taas oo aydaan surkiinna kala bixi doonin, oo weliba si kibir leh uma socon doontaan, waayo, waa wakhti xun.
Therefore, this is what Yahweh says: “I will cause you people to experience disasters, and you will not be able to escape [MTY] from them. You will no [longer] walk around proudly, because when those things happen, it will be a time of much trouble for you.
4 Wakhtigaas waxaa laydinku qaadi doonaa masaal, waxaa lagu barooran doonaa baroor aad u weyn, oo waxaa la odhan doonaa, Annaga waa nala wada baabbi'iyey. Isagu waa beddelaa qaybtii dadkayga. Bal sidee buu iiga wareejiyaa! Oo beerahayagiina wuxuu u qaybiyaa caasiyiinta.
At that time, [your enemies] will make fun of you; they will ridicule you by singing this sad song about you: ‘We are completely ruined; Yahweh is taking our land/fields from us, and he will give it to those who will capture us.’”
5 Sidaas daraaddeed ururka Rabbiga dhexdiisa kuma lahaan doontid mid wax ku qiyaasa xadhigga saamiga.
So [when it is the time for the land to be given back to you] people who belong to Yahweh, there will be no one [MTY] who will be able to (cast lots/throw marked stones) to determine which land belongs to whom.
6 Waxay iyagu ku yidhaahdaan, Waxba ha sii sheegina. Iyagu kuwan waxba uma sii sheegi doonaan. Oo hadallo cay ah kama dhammaan doonaan.
The people [who heard me say that] replied to me, “Do not prophesy such things! Do not say that [Yahweh] is going to humiliate us [by causing us to experience disasters]!”
7 Reer Yacquubow, ma waxaa la odhan doonaa, Ruuxii Rabbigu miyuu soo dulqaadasho yaraaday? Kuwanuse ma falimihiisii baa? Miyaan erayadaydu wax wanaagsan u tarin kii si qumman u socda?
But you people [MTY] of Israel should not [RHQ] talk like that! The Spirit of Yahweh will certainly not [RHQ] be patient [with people who say such things]! People who continually do things that are righteous will certainly [RHQ] like/appreciate what I say.
8 Laakiinse waayahan dambeba dadkaygii wuxuu u kacay sidii cadow oo kale. Waxaad marada ka saartaan dharka dadka jidka ammaan ku maraya sidii kuwa dagaal ka noqda.
[But Yahweh says], “[Recently] my people have been acting toward me like an enemy. When soldiers return from fighting [against their enemies], you [rich people refuse to return the coats of those poor soldiers who have borrowed money from you] [and given you their coats to guarantee that they will pay back the money that they borrowed from you]. [It is as though] you are waiting to forcefully take their coats off their backs!
9 Dumarkii dadkayga waxaad ka saartaan guryahoodii wacnaa, oo carruurtoodii yaryaraydna waxaad weligiin ka qaadataan ammaantaydii.
You have forced women to leave their nice homes, and you have stolen from their children forever the (blessings/good things) that I wanted to give them.
10 Sara joogsada oo taga, waayo, tanu ma aha nasashadiinna, maxaa yeelay, waxaa jirta wasakh wax ku baabbi'inaysa baabba' xoog badan.
[So] get up and leave [here]! This is not a place where you can rest [and be safe/protected], because you have (defiled it/caused it to be a place that I hate); it will be completely destroyed.
11 Nin dabayl iyo khiyaano ku dhex socda hadduu been sheego oo yidhaahdo, Waxaan wax kaaga sii sheegayaa khamri iyo wax lagu sakhraamo, xataa kaasu nebi buu dadkan u noqon doonaa.
[You people want] a prophet who will lie to you, saying ‘I will preach [that you should drink] plenty of wine and [other] alcoholic drinks!’ That is the [kind of] prophet who [would please] you.”
12 Reer Yacquubow, sida xaqiiqada ah dhammaantiin waan soo wada shirin doonaa, sida xaqiiqada ah waxaan soo ururin doona kuwa dadka Israa'iil ka hadhay, oo waxaan iyaga isugu wada keeni doonaa sidii idihii Bosraah, sidii adhi daaqsiintiisii ku dhex jira, oo dadkooda badan daraaddiis aad bay u buuqi doonaan.
“[But some day], you descendants of Jacob, you Israeli people who have survived, I will bring you back [from (exile/other countries)], I will gather you together like [SIM] [a shepherd gathers his] sheep from the pasture into a pen [DOU]; there will be many of you in your land/country.
13 Kan wax jebiyo ayaa hortood tegey. Way soo fara baxsadeen oo waxay u gudbeen xagga iridda, oo halkaasay ka bexeen, oo boqorkoodiina hortooduu maray, oo Rabbiguna waa kan madax u ah.
Your leader will enable them to leave the countries where they have been exiled; he will lead them out of the gates [of their enemies’ cities], [back to your own country]. Your king will lead them; [it is I], Yahweh, who will be their king!”
