Miikaah 5
1 Ciidammadoy, hadda waa inaad isa soo urursataan. Isagu waa inoo hareereeyey. Xaakinka dalka Israa'iil ul bay dhabanka kaga dhufan doonaan.
Meanwhile, shalt thou gather together in troops, thou daughter of a troop, siege, hath he laid against us, —with a sceptre, will they smite on 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.
Thou, therefore, Bethlehem Ephrathah, though, little, to be among the thousands of Judah, out of thee, shall Mine come forth, to be ruler in Israel, —whose comings forth, have been from of old, from the days of age-past time.
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 when, one who is to bring forth, hath brought forth, —and, the remainder of his brethren, return unto the sons 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.
Then shall he stand, and tend his flock in the strength of Yahweh, In the excellency of the name of Yahweh his God, have they endured, —For, now, shall he be great 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.
So shall this one be Prosperity. As for Assyria—when he shall enter our land, and when he shall tread down in our palaces, then will we raise up against him, seven shepherds, and eight princes of mankind.
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.
Then shall they shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof, —So shall he deliver from Assyria, when he shall enter our land, and when he shall tread down within our bounds.
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 peoples, as dew from Yahweh, as myriad drops on plants, —which tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of Adam.
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 peoples, as a lion among the beasts of the jungle, as a young lion among flocks of sheep, —who, if he passeth by, both treadeth down—and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
9 Gacantiinnu ha ka sarrayso cadaawayaashiinna, oo colkiinna oo dhanna ha wada baabbo'o.
Let thy hand be uplifted against thine adversaries, —and, all thine 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, in that day, Declareth Yahweh, That I will cut off thy horses out of thy midst, —and will destroy thy chariots;
11 Oo magaalooyinka dalkiinna waan baabbi'in doonaa, oo qalcadihiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.
And will cut off the cities of thy land, —and will pull down all thy fortresses;
12 Oo gacantiinnana sixir waan ka baabbi'in doonaa, oo mar dambena ma lahaan doontaan faaliyayaal.
And will cut off incantations, out of thy hand, —and, users of hidden arts, shalt thou not have;
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 thine images and thy pillars out of thy midst, —and thou shalt not bow thyself down, any more, to the work of thine own hands;
14 Oo dhexbadhtankiinna waan ka rujin doonaa geedihiinna Asheeraah ah, oo magaalooyinkiinnana waan wada dumin doonaa.
And I will uproot thy Sacred Stems out of thy midst, —and will destroy thy cities:
15 Oo quruumihii aan i dhegaysan waxaan kaga aargoosan doonaa xanaaq iyo cadho.
Then will I execute, with anger and with indignation, vengeance upon the nations, —of which they have not heard.
