< 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 in the latter days, it will happen that the mountain of the LORD’s temple will be established on the top of the mountains, and it will be exalted above the hills; and peoples will stream 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.
Many nations will go and say, “Come! Let’s go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths.” For the law will go out of Zion, and the LORD’s word 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.
and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off. They will beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will 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 every man will sit under his vine and under his fig tree. No one will make them afraid, for the mouth of the LORD of Armies has spoken.
5 Gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn ń rìn, olúkúlùkù ni orúkọ ọlọ́run tirẹ̀, ṣùgbọ́n àwa yóò máa rìn ní orúkọ Olúwa. Ọlọ́run wa láé àti láéláé.
Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods, but we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever 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,” says the LORD, “I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which 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.
and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD will reign over them on Mount Zion from then on, 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.”
You, tower of the flock, the hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come. Yes, the former dominion will come, 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.
Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counsellor perished, that pains have taken hold of you 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.
Be in pain, and labour to give birth, daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go out of the city, and will dwell in the field, and will come even to Babylon. There you will be rescued. There the LORD will redeem you from the hand of your 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 have assembled against you, that say, “Let her be defiled, and let our eye gloat over 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 don’t know the thoughts of the LORD, neither do they understand his counsel; for he has gathered them like the sheaves to the threshing 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 thresh, daughter of Zion, for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze. You will beat in pieces many peoples. I will devote their gain to the LORD, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
