Micah 1
1 Ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa tí ó tọ Mika ará Moreṣeti wá ní àkókò ìjọba Jotamu, Ahasi, àti Hesekiah, àwọn ọba Juda nìwọ̀nyí, ìran tí ó rí nípa Samaria àti Jerusalẹmu.
And the word of the Lord came to Michaeas the son of Morasthi, in the days of Joatham, and Achaz, and Ezekias, kings of Juda, concerning what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem.
2 Ẹ gbọ́, gbogbo ẹ̀yin ènìyàn, fetísílẹ̀, ìwọ ayé àti gbogbo ohun tó wà níbẹ̀, kí Olúwa Olódùmarè lè ṣe ẹlẹ́rìí sí yín, Olúwa láti inú tẹmpili mímọ́ rẹ̀ wá.
Hear [these] words, you people; and let the earth give heed, and all that are in it: and the Lord God shall be amongst you for a testimony, the Lord out of his holy habitation.
3 Wò ó! Olúwa ń bọ̀ wá láti ibùgbé rẹ̀; yóò sọ̀kalẹ̀, yóò sì tẹ ibi gíga ayé mọ́lẹ̀.
For, behold, the Lord comes forth out of his place, and will come down, and will go upon the high places of the earth.
4 Àwọn òkè ńlá yóò sí yọ́ lábẹ́ rẹ̀, àwọn àfonífojì yóò sì pínyà, bí idà níwájú iná, bí omi tí ó ń sàn lọ ni ibi gẹ̀rẹ́gẹ̀rẹ́.
And the mountains shall be shaken under him, and the valleys shall melt like wax before the fire, and as water rushing down a declivity.
5 Nítorí ìré-òfin-kọjá Jakọbu ni gbogbo èyí, àti nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ ilé Israẹli. Kí ni ìré-òfin-kọjá Jakọbu? Ǹjẹ́ Samaria ha kọ? Kí ni àwọn ibi gíga Juda? Ǹjẹ́ Jerusalẹmu ha kọ?
All these [calamities are] for the transgression of Jacob, and for the sin of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? [is it] not Samaria? and what is the sin of the house of Juda? [is it] not Jerusalem?
6 “Nítorí náà, èmi yóò ṣe Samaria bí òkìtì lórí pápá, bí ibi ti à ń lò fún gbígbin ọgbà àjàrà. Èmi yóò gbá àwọn òkúta rẹ̀ dànù sínú àfonífojì. Èmi yóò sí tú ìpilẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ palẹ̀.
Therefore I will make Samaria [as] a store-house of the fruits of the field, and [as] a planting of a vineyard: and I will utterly demolish her stones, and I will expose her foundations.
7 Gbogbo àwọn ère fínfín rẹ̀ ni a ó fọ́ sí wẹ́wẹ́ gbogbo àwọn ẹ̀bùn tẹmpili rẹ̀ ni a ó fi iná sun, Èmi yóò sì pa gbogbo àwọn òrìṣà rẹ̀ run. Nítorí tí ó ti kó àwọn ẹ̀bùn rẹ̀ jọ láti inú owó èrè panṣágà, gẹ́gẹ́ bí owó èrè panṣágà, wọn yóò sì tún padà sí owó iṣẹ́ panṣágà.”
And they shall cut in pieces all the graven images, and all that she has hired they shall burn with fire, and I will utterly destroy all her idols: because she has gathered of the hires of fornication, and of the hires of fornication has she amassed [wealth].
8 Nítorí èyí, èmi yóò sì sọkún, èmi yóò sì pohùnréré ẹkún: èmi yóò máa lọ ní ẹsẹ̀ lásán àti ní ìhòhò. Èmi yóò ké bí akátá, èmi yóò sì máa dárò bí àwọn ọmọ ògòǹgò.
Therefore shall she lament and wail, she shall go barefooted, and [being] naked she shall make lamentation as [that] of serpents, and mourning as of the daughters of sirens.
9 Nítorí tí ọgbẹ́ rẹ̀ jẹ́ aláìlèwòtán; ó sì ti wá sí Juda. Ó sì ti dé ẹnu-bodè àwọn ènìyàn mi, àní sí Jerusalẹmu.
For her plague has become grievous; for it has come even to Juda; and has reached to the gate of my people, even to Jerusalem.
10 Ẹ má ṣe sọ ní Gati ẹ má ṣe sọkún rárá. Ní ilẹ̀ Beti-Ofra mo yí ara mi nínú eruku.
You that are in Geth, exalt not yourselves, and you Enakim, do not rebuild from [the ruins of] the house in derision: sprinkle dust [in the place of] your laughter.
11 Ẹ kọjá lọ ni ìhòhò àti ni ìtìjú, ìwọ tí ó ń gbé ni Ṣafiri. Àwọn tí ó ń gbé ni Saanani kì yóò sì jáde wá. Beti-Eseli wà nínú ọ̀fọ̀; a ó sì gba ààbò rẹ̀ kúrò lọ́wọ́ yin.
The inhabitant of Sennaar, fairly inhabiting her cities, came not forth to mourn for the house next to her: she shall receive of you the stroke of grief.
12 Nítorí àwọn tí ó ń gbé ni Marati ń retí ìre, ṣùgbọ́n ibi sọ̀kalẹ̀ ti ọ̀dọ̀ Olúwa wá sí ẹnu-bodè Jerusalẹmu.
Who has begun [to act] for good to her that dwells in sorrow? for calamities have come down from the Lord upon the gates of Jerusalem,
13 Ìwọ olùgbé Lakiṣi, dì kẹ̀kẹ́ mọ́ ẹranko tí ó yára. Òun sì ni ìbẹ̀rẹ̀ ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ sí àwọn ọmọbìnrin Sioni, nítorí a rí àìṣedéédéé Israẹli nínú rẹ̀.
[even] a sound of chariots and horsemen: the inhabitants of Lachis, she is the leader of sin to the daughter of Sion: for in you were found the transgressions of Israel.
14 Nítorí náà ni ìwọ ó ṣe fi ìwé ìkọ̀sílẹ̀ fún Moreṣeti Gati. Àwọn ilé Aksibu yóò jẹ́ ẹlẹ́tàn sí àwọn ọba Israẹli.
Therefore shall he cause men to be sent forth as far as the inheritance of Geth, [even] vain houses; they are become vanity to the kings of Israel;
15 Èmi yóò sì mú àrólé kan wá sórí rẹ ìwọ olùgbé Meraṣa. Ẹni tí ó jẹ́ ògo Israẹli yóò sì wá sí Adullamu.
until they bring the heirs, O inhabitant of Lachis: the inheritance shall reach to Odollam, [even] the glory of the daughter of Israel.
16 Fá irun orí rẹ nínú ọ̀fọ̀ nítorí àwọn ọmọ rẹ aláìlágbára, sọ ra rẹ̀ di apárí bí ẹyẹ igún, nítorí wọn yóò kúrò lọ́dọ̀ rẹ lọ sí ìgbèkùn.
Shave your hair, and make yourself bald for your delicate children; increase your widowhood as an eagle; for [your people] are gone into captivity from you.
