< Micah 4 >

1 Ní ọjọ́ ìkẹyìn a ó fi òkè ilé Olúwa lélẹ̀ lórí àwọn òkè ńlá, a ó sì gbé e ga ju àwọn òkè kéékèèké lọ, àwọn ènìyàn yóò sì máa wọ̀ sínú rẹ̀.
But it shall come to pass in the last days That the mountain of the house of Jehovah shall be established at the head of the mountains, And exalted above the hills; And the nations shall flow to it.
2 Ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè yóò wá, wọn yóò sì wí pé, “Ẹ wá, ẹ jẹ́ kí á gòkè ńlá Olúwa, àti sí ilé Ọlọ́run Jakọbu. Òun yóò sì kọ́ wa ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀, kí àwa kí ó lè rìn ní ọ̀nà rẹ̀.” Òfin yóò jáde láti Sioni wá, àti ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa láti Jerusalẹmu.
And many nations shall go, saying, “Come, let us go up to the mountain of Jehovah, To the house of the God of Jacob, That he may teach us his ways, And that we may walk in his paths!” For from Zion shall go forth a law, And the word of Jehovah from Jerusalem.
3 Òun yóò sì ṣe ìdájọ́ láàrín ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ènìyàn, yóò sì parí aáwọ̀ fún orílẹ̀-èdè alágbára jíjìn réré. Wọn yóò sì fi idà wọn rọ ohun èlò ìtulẹ̀ àti ọ̀kọ̀ wọn di dòjé orílẹ̀-èdè kì yóò gbé idà sókè sí orílẹ̀-èdè mọ́, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni wọn kì yóò kọ́ ogun jíjà mọ́.
He shall be a judge of many nations, And an umpire of many kingdoms afar off. They shall beat their swords into ploughshares, And their spears into pruning-hooks; Nation shall not lift up the sword against nation, Neither shall they learn war any more.
4 Ṣùgbọ́n olúkúlùkù yóò jókòó lábẹ́ àjàrà rẹ̀ àti lábẹ́ igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ rẹ̀, ẹnìkan kì yóò sì dẹ́rùbà wọ́n, nítorí Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun ti sọ̀rọ̀.
But they shall sit every one under his vine, And under his fig-tree, And none shall make them afraid; The mouth of Jehovah of hosts hath spoken it.
5 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ń rìn, olúkúlùkù ni orúkọ ọlọ́run tirẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n àwa yóò máa rìn ní orúkọ Olúwa. Ọlọ́run wa láé àti láéláé.
Though all the nations walk every one in the name of its God, Yet will we walk in the name of Jehovah our God for ever and ever.
6 “Ní ọjọ́ náà,” ni Olúwa wí, “Èmi yóò kó àwọn arọ jọ; èmi yóò sì ṣà àwọn tí a lé kúrò ní ìlú jọ, àti àwọn ẹni tí èmi ti pọ́n lójú.
In that day, saith Jehovah, I will gather the halting, And the far scattered I will assemble, And those whom I have afflicted.
7 Èmi yóò dá àwọn arọ sí fún èyí tókù, èmi yóò sì sọ àwọn tí a lé kúrò ní ìlú di orílẹ̀-èdè alágbára. Olúwa yóò sì jẹ ọba lórí wọn ní òkè ńlá Sioni láti ìsinsin yìí lọ àti títí láéláé.
I will make the halting a remnant, And the far scattered a strong nation; And Jehovah shall reign over them in mount Zion, Henceforth, even forever.
8 Ní ti ìwọ, ilé ìṣọ́ agbo àgùntàn, odi alágbára ọmọbìnrin Sioni, a ó mú ìjọba ìṣáájú padà bọ̀ sípò fún un yín; ìjọba yóò sì wà sí ọ̀dọ̀ ọmọbìnrin Jerusalẹmu.”
And thou, O tower of the flock, O hill of the daughter of Zion, to thee it shall come, To thee shall come the former dominion, Even the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Kí ni ìwọ ha ń kígbe sókè sí nísinsin yìí? Ǹjẹ́ ìwọ kò ní ọba bí? Àwọn ìgbìmọ̀ rẹ ṣègbé bí? Nítorí ìrora ti dì ọ́ mú bí obìnrin tí ń rọbí.
And now why dost thou cry aloud? Is there no king within thee? Have thy counsellors perished, That pangs have taken hold of thee, as of a woman in travail?
10 Máa yí síyìn-ín sọ́hùn-ún nínú ìrora, ìwọ obìnrin Sioni, bí ẹni tí ń rọbí, nítorí nísinsin yìí ìwọ yóò jáde lọ kúrò ní ìlú, ìwọ yóò sì máa gbé inú igbó. Ìwọ yóò lọ sí Babeli; níbẹ̀ ni ìwọ yóò sì ti rí ìgbàlà. Níbẹ̀ ni Olúwa yóò ti rà ọ́ padà kúrò lọ́wọ́ àwọn ọ̀tá rẹ.
Yea, writhe, and be in anguish, O daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail! For now shalt thou go forth from the city, and dwell in the field; Thou shalt go even to Babylon; Yet there shalt thou be delivered. Jehovah will redeem thee from the hand of thine enemies.
11 Ṣùgbọ́n nísinsin yìí ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ Orílẹ̀-èdè kó ara wọn jọ sí ọ. Wọ́n sì wí pé, “Ẹ jẹ́ kí a sọ ọ́ di àìmọ́, ẹ jẹ́ kí ojú wa kí ó wo Sioni!”
Now many nations gather themselves against thee, Who say, Let her be polluted, And let our eyes gaze upon Zion!
12 Ṣùgbọ́n wọn kò mọ èrò inú Olúwa; bẹ́ẹ̀ ni òye ìmọ̀ rẹ̀ kò yé wọn, nítorí ó ti kó wọn jọ bí i ìtí sínú ìpakà.
But they know not the thoughts of Jehovah, And understand not his purposes; For he gathereth them as sheaves into the thrashing-floor.
13 “Dìde, kí ó sì máa pa ọkà ìwọ ọmọbìnrin Sioni, nítorí èmi yóò sọ ìwo rẹ̀ di irin, èmi yóò sì sọ pátákò rẹ̀ di idẹ ìwọ yóò run ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ orílẹ̀-èdè pátápátá.” Èmi yóò sì ya èrè wọn sọ́tọ̀ fún Olúwa àti ọrọ̀ wọn sí Olúwa gbogbo ayé.
Arise and thrash, O daughter of Zion! For I will make thy horns iron, And thy hoofs brass; Thou shalt beat in pieces many nations, And thou shalt devote their spoils to Jehovah, Their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
