Miikaah 3
1 Oo anigu waxaan idhi, Waan idin baryayaaye madaxda reer Yacquub iyo taliyayaasha dalka Israa'iilow, i maqla. Sow idinkuma habboona inaad caddaaladda taqaanniin?
And I said, Give ear, now, you heads of Jacob and rulers of the people of Israel: is it not for you to have knowledge of what is right?
2 Idinku wanaagga waad neceb tihiin oo sharkaad jeceshihiin, oo haraggoodana waad ka mudhxisaan, oo hilibkoodana lafahooda waad ka mudhxisaan.
You who are haters of good and lovers of evil, pulling off their skin from them and their flesh from their bones;
3 Oo weliba waxaad cuntaan hilibka dadkayga, oo haraggoodana waad ka siibtaan, oo lafahoodana waad jejebisaan, haah, oo waxaad u kala gogooysaan sidii hilib dheri loo diyaariyo, iyo sidii hilib digsi ku jiro.
Like meat they take the flesh of my people for their food, skinning them and crushing their bones, yes, cutting them up as if for the pot, like flesh inside the cooking-pot.
4 Markaasay Rabbiga u qayshan doonaan, laakiinse isagu uma uu jawaabi doono, oo weliba wakhtigaas wejigiisa wuu ka qarin doonaa, waana sidii ay iyagu falimahooda xumaanta ugu sameeyeen.
Then they will be crying to the Lord for help, but he will not give them an answer: yes, he will keep his face veiled from them at that time, because their acts have been evil.
5 Rabbigu sidaasuu kaga leeyahay nebiyada dadkayga qalda, oo qaniina oo haddana ku qayliya, Nabad, oo ku dhawaaqa in lala diriro ku alla kii aan afkooda wax ku ridin.
This is what the Lord has said about the prophets by whom my people have been turned from the right way; who, biting with their teeth, say, Peace; and if anyone puts nothing in their mouths they make ready for war against him.
6 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed waxay idiin noqon doontaa habeen, waxbana laydinma tusi doono, oo waxay idiin noqon doontaa gudcur, mana aad faalan doontaan, oo qorraxdu way dhici doontaa nebiyada oo jooga, oo maalintuna way ku madoobaan doontaa iyaga.
For this cause it will be night for you, without a vision; and it will be dark for you, without knowledge of the future; the sun will go down over the prophets, and the day will be black over them.
7 Oo kuwa wax arka way ceeboobi doonaan, oo faaliyayaashuna way isku wareeri doonaan, haah, oo dhammaantood waxay dabooli doonaan bushimahooda, waayo, ma jirto jawaab Rabbiga ka timid.
And the seers will be shamed, and the readers of the future will be at a loss, all of them covering their lips; for there is no answer from God.
8 Laakiinse sida runta ah aniga waxaa iga buuxa xoog iyo caddaalad iyo itaal uu Ruuxa Rabbigu i geliyey si aan reer Yacquub xadgudubkiisa ugu sheego, oo aan dadka Israa'iil dembigiisa ugu sheego.
But I truly am full of the spirit of the Lord, with power of judging and with strength to make clear to Jacob his wrongdoing and to Israel his sin.
9 Madaxda reer Yacquub iyo taliyayaasha dalka Israa'iilow, waan idin baryayaaye, waxan maqla, kuwiinna caddaaladda neceb oo qummanaanta qalloociya.
Then give ear to this, you heads of the children of Jacob, you rulers of the children of Israel, hating what is right, twisting what is straight.
10 Siyoon dhiig bay ku dhisaan, Yeruusaalemna xumaan bay ku dhisaan.
They are building up Zion with blood, and Jerusalem with evil-doing.
11 Madaxdoodu laaluush bay wax ku xukumaan, wadaaddadooduna kiro bay dadka wax ku baraan, oo nebiyadooduna lacag bay u faaliyaan, oo weliba Rabbiga bay ku tiirsadaan iyagoo leh, Sow Rabbigu dhexdayada ma joogo? Belaayo innaba naguma degi doonto.
Its heads take rewards for judging, and the priests take payment for teaching, and the prophets get silver for reading the future: but still, supporting themselves on the Lord, they say, Is not the Lord among us? no evil will overtake us.
12 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed idinka aawadiin Siyoon waxaa loo jeexi doonaa sida beer oo kale, oo Yeruusaalemna waxay noqon doontaa taallooyin burbur ah, oo buurta guriguna waxay noqon doontaa sida meelaha sare ee kaynta ku yaal oo kale.
For this reason, Zion will be ploughed like a field because of you, and Jerusalem will become a mass of broken walls, and the mountain of the house like a high place in the woods.
