Mikas 2
Magandang Balita Biblia (with Deuterocanon)
Sumpa sa mga Mapang-api
2 Kakila-kilabot ang mangyayari sa mga hindi na natutulog dahil sa pagbabalak ng kasamaan at maagang bumabangon upang agad itong isagawa sa sandaling magkaroon ng pagkakataon. 2 Kapag nagustuhan nila ang lupa ng may-lupa, kinakamkam nila ito. Inaapi nila ang mga tao sa pamamagitan ng pandaraya upang maalipin nila ang pamilya ng mga ito at masamsam ang kanilang mga ari-arian.
3 Kaya nga, sinasabi ni Yahweh, “Paparusahan ko ang sambahayang ito, at walang sinumang makakatakas dito. Hindi na kayo muling makapagmamataas pagkaraan ng araw ng inyong kapahamakan. 4 Sa araw na iyon ay kukutyain kayo ng inyong mga kaaway sa pamamagitan ng pag-awit tungkol sa inyong kasawian:
‘Ganap na kaming nawasak;
inalis na ni Yahweh ang aming karapatan sa mga lupaing bahagi ng aming sambahayan
at pinaghati-hati ang mga ito sa mga bumihag sa amin.’”
5 Kaya't kapag dumating na ang panahong ibabalik na ni Yahweh ang lupain sa kanyang bayan, wala na kayong bahagi dito.
6 Sasabihin nila, “Huwag kang magpahayag. Huwag mong ipahayag ang gayong mga bagay. Hindi kami ilalagay ng Diyos sa kahihiyan. 7 Sa palagay mo ba'y hinahatulan ang sambayanan ng Israel? Ubos na ba ang pasensiya ni Yahweh? Talaga bang magagawa niya iyon? Hindi ba't mabait siya sa mga gumagawa ng matuwid?”
8 Sumagot si Yahweh, “Subalit sinasalakay ninyo na parang kaaway ang aking bayan. Nagsisiuwi sila mula sa digmaan na ang akala'y ligtas sila sa kanilang bayan. Ngunit naroon pala kayo at naghihintay upang sila'y hubaran.
9 “Itinaboy ninyo ang mga kababaihan ng aking bayan mula sa kanilang mga tahanang pinagyayaman. Lubusan ninyong pinagkait ang aking pagpapala sa kanilang mga anak. 10 Maghanda kayo at umalis dito; hindi na ligtas ang dakong ito para sa inyo. Sinumpa na ng inyong mga kasalanan ang dakong ito at ito'y wawasakin.
11 “Ang gusto nilang propeta ay iyong nagpapahayag ng kasinungalingan at pandaraya at nagsasabing, ‘Sasagana kayo sa alak.’
12 “Gayunman, darating ang panahon na kayong mga naiwan sa Israel ay titipunin ko. Pagsasama-samahin ko kayo, tulad ng mga tupa sa kawan. Gaya ng pastulang puno ng mga tupa, ang inyong lupain ay mapupuno ng mga tao.”
13 Magbubukas ang Diyos ng daan para sa kanila at palalayain sila mula sa pagkabihag. Magtatakbuhan silang palabas sa mga pintuang lunsod at magiging malaya. Si Yahweh mismo na kanilang hari ang sa kanila'y mangunguna.
Micah 2
King James Version
2 Woe to them that devise iniquity, and work evil upon their beds! when the morning is light, they practise it, because it is in the power of their hand.
2 And they covet fields, and take them by violence; and houses, and take them away: so they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
3 Therefore thus saith the Lord; Behold, against this family do I devise an evil, from which ye shall not remove your necks; neither shall ye go haughtily: for this time is evil.
4 In that day shall one take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, and say, We be utterly spoiled: he hath changed the portion of my people: how hath he removed it from me! turning away he hath divided our fields.
5 Therefore thou shalt have none that shall cast a cord by lot in the congregation of the Lord.
6 Prophesy ye not, say they to them that prophesy: they shall not prophesy to them, that they shall not take shame.
7 O thou that art named the house of Jacob, is the spirit of the Lord straitened? are these his doings? do not my words do good to him that walketh uprightly?
8 Even of late my people is risen up as an enemy: ye pull off the robe with the garment from them that pass by securely as men averse from war.
9 The women of my people have ye cast out from their pleasant houses; from their children have ye taken away my glory for ever.
10 Arise ye, and depart; for this is not your rest: because it is polluted, it shall destroy you, even with a sore destruction.
11 If a man walking in the spirit and falsehood do lie, saying, I will prophesy unto thee of wine and of strong drink; he shall even be the prophet of this people.
12 I will surely assemble, O Jacob, all of thee; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as the flock in the midst of their fold: they shall make great noise by reason of the multitude of men.
13 The breaker is come up before them: they have broken up, and have passed through the gate, and are gone out by it: and their king shall pass before them, and the Lord on the head of them.
Micah 2
English Standard Version
Woe to the Oppressors
2 (A)Woe to those who devise wickedness
and work evil (B)on their beds!
When the morning dawns, they perform it,
because it is in the power of their hand.
2 They covet fields and (C)seize them,
and houses, and take them away;
they oppress a man and his house,
a man and his inheritance.
3 Therefore thus says the Lord:
behold, against (D)this family I am devising disaster,[a]
from which you cannot remove your necks,
and you (E)shall not walk haughtily,
(F)for it will be a time of disaster.
4 In that day (G)they shall take up a taunt song against you
and moan bitterly,
and say, “We are utterly ruined;
(H)he changes the portion of my people;
(I)how he removes it from me!
(J)To an apostate he allots our fields.”
5 Therefore you will have none (K)to cast the line by lot
in the assembly of the Lord.
6 (L)“Do not preach”—thus they preach—
(M)“one should not preach of such things;
(N)disgrace will not overtake us.”
7 Should this be said, O house of Jacob?
(O)Has the Lord grown impatient?[b]
Are these his deeds?
Do not my words do good
to him who walks uprightly?
8 But lately (P)my people have risen up as an enemy;
you strip the rich robe from those who pass by trustingly
with no thought of war.[c]
9 The women of my people you drive out
from their delightful houses;
from their young children you take away
my splendor forever.
10 (Q)Arise and go,
for this is no (R)place to rest,
because of (S)uncleanness that destroys
with a grievous destruction.
11 If a man should go about and (T)utter wind and lies,
saying, “I will preach to you (U)of wine and strong drink,”
he would be the preacher for this people!
12 I will surely assemble all of you, O Jacob;
(V)I will gather (W)the remnant of Israel;
I will set them together
like sheep in a fold,
(X)like a flock in its pasture,
a noisy multitude of men.
13 (Y)He who opens the breach goes up before them;
they break through and pass the gate,
(Z)going out by it.
Their king passes on before them,
(AA)the Lord at their head.
