< Miikaah 5 >
1 Ciidammadoy, hadda waa inaad isa soo urursataan. Isagu waa inoo hareereeyey. Xaakinka dalka Israa'iil ul bay dhabanka kaga dhufan doonaan.
Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops; they lay siege against us: with the rod they smite upon the cheek the judge of Israel.
2 Laakiinse adigu Beytlaxam Efraataahay in kastoo aad ku yar tahay kumanyaalka reer Yahuudah, waxaa adiga iiga kaa soo bixi doona mid dalka Israa'iil taliye ka noqon doona, kaasoo bixitinkiisu ahaa waa hore, iyo tan iyo weligiis.
But thou, Beth-lechem Ephratah, the least [though] thou be among the thousands of Judah, [yet] out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel, whose origin is from olden times, from most ancient days.
3 Haddaba sidaas daraaddeed iyaguu gacangelin doonaa jeeray tan foolanaysa umusho, dabadeedna kuwa walaalihiis ka hadhay waxay ku noqon doonaan dadka Israa'iil.
Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she who travaileth hath brought forth: then shall the remnant of his brethren return with the children of Israel.
4 Oo isagu wuu istaagi doonaa, oo wuxuu adhigiisa ku daajin doonaa xoogga Rabbiga iyo haybadda magaca Rabbiga Ilaahiisa ah, oo iyana ammaan bay ku joogi doonaan, waayo, isagu haatan mid weyn buu ku ahaan doonaa tan iyo dhulka darfihiisa.
And he shall stand forward and feed [Israel] through the strength of the Lord, through the excellency of the name of the Lord his God: and they shall abide [safely]; for now shall he be great even unto the ends of the earth.
5 Oo kanu wuxuu noqon doonaa nabaddeenna. Markii kan reer Ashuur uu dalkeenna soo galo, oo uu ku dhex socdo daaraheenna waaweyn, markaasaynu isaga ku kicin doonnaa toddoba adhijir iyo siddeed nin oo madax ah.
And in this [manner] shall there be peace: If Asshur should come into our land; and if he should tread in our palaces, then will we raise up against him seven shepherds, and eight anointed men.
6 Oo dalka Ashuur seef baa lagu dumin doonaa, oo dalka reer Nimrod waa laga dumin doonaa irdaha laga galo, oo isagu wuxuu inaga samatabbixin doonaa kan reer Ashuur markuu dalkeenna soo galo iyo markuu soohdinteenna dhex maro.
And they shall lay waste the land of Asshur with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the gates of its [cities]: thus will he deliver us from Asshur, if he should come into our land, and if he should tread within our borders.
7 Oo kuwa reer Yacquub ka hadhayna waxay dadyow badan ku dhex ahaan doonaan sidii sayax xagga Rabbiga ka yimid, iyo sidii shuxshux caws ku kor da'ay, kaasoo aan ninna dhawrin, oo aan binu-aadmiga sugin.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people like dew from the Lord, like showers upon the herbs, that wait not for man, nor hope for the sons of man.
8 Oo kuwa reer Yacquub ka hadhayna waxay quruumaha dhexdooda iyo dadyow badan dhexbadhtankooda joogi doonaan sidii libaax ku dhex jira xayawaanka kaynta, iyo sidii aaran libaax oo ku dhex jira ido foof ah, kaasoo markuu dhex maraaba ku tunta oo kala jeexjeexda, oo weliba aan la arag mid ka samatabbixiya.
And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations, in the midst of many people, like a lion among the beasts of the forest, like a young lion among flocks of sheep: who, if he break in, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, while none can deliver.
9 Gacantiinnu ha ka sarrayso cadaawayaashiinna, oo colkiinna oo dhanna ha wada baabbo'o.
High shall thy hand be lifted up above thy adversaries, and all thy enemies shall be cut off.
10 Oo Rabbigu wuxuu leeyahay, Wakhtigaas fardihiinna waan idinka dhex baabbi'in doonaa, oo gaadhifardoodkiinnana waan wada jejebin doonaa.
And it shall come to pass on that day, saith the Lord, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots;
11 Oo magaalooyinka dalkiinna waan baabbi'in doonaa, oo qalcadihiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.
And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and I will throw down all thy strongholds;
12 Oo gacantiinnana sixir waan ka baabbi'in doonaa, oo mar dambena ma lahaan doontaan faaliyayaal.
And I will cut off the arts of witchcraft out of thy hand; and soothsayers shalt thou have no more;
13 Oo waxaan dhexdiinna ka baabbi'in doonaa taswiirahiinna xardhan iyo tiirarkiinna, oo mar dambe ma aad caabudi doontaan sancada gacmihiinna.
And I will cut off thy graven images, and thy statues out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more prostrate thyself to the work of thy hands;
14 Oo dhexbadhtankiinna waan ka rujin doonaa geedihiinna Asheeraah ah, oo magaalooyinkiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.
And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee; and I will destroy thy enemies.
15 Oo quruumihii aan i dhegaysan waxaan kaga aargoosan doonaa xanaaq iyo cadho.
And I will in anger and in fury execute vengeance upon the nations, upon those that have not hearkened.
