Miqueas 5
Traducción en lenguaje actual
Grandeza de la pequeña Belén
5 Yo, Miqueas, anuncio:
«Jerusalén, Jerusalén,
prepárate para la guerra.
Por medio de tus enemigos
Dios castigará duramente
al rey de Israel.
2 »Pero tú, Belén Efrata,
entre los pueblos de Judá
eres un pueblo pequeño,
pero llegarás a ser muy importante.
En ti nacerá un rey
de familia muy antigua,
que gobernará sobre Judá.
3 »Dios nos va a abandonar
hasta que nazca ese rey.
Luego de su nacimiento
los que hayan quedado con vida
se reunirán con los demás israelitas.
4 Entonces Dios le dará a ese rey
toda su fuerza y poder
para dirigir a su pueblo
y hacerlo vivir en paz.
Ese rey extenderá su dominio
hasta el último rincón de la tierra.
5-6 »Cuando vengan los asirios
para invadir nuestro país
y quieran ocupar nuestros palacios,
ese rey nos librará de ellos
y nos hará vivir en paz.
Ordenará que los ataquen
siete jefes y ocho capitanes.
¡Así conquistaremos por la fuerza
el país de Asiria, territorio de Nimrod!
Judá entre las naciones
7-8 »Los que quedemos con vida
seremos entre las naciones,
como la lluvia que Dios envía:
cae del cielo y riega la hierba
sin la intervención humana.
Seremos también como los leones:
cuando están entre un rebaño,
atrapan a las ovejas y las destrozan,
y no las dejan escapar.
9 ¡Tú, mi Dios, atacarás a tus enemigos
y los destruirás por completo!»
Destrucción total
10 Dios dijo a su pueblo:
«Cuando llegue ese día,
mataré a todos tus caballos
y destruiré tus carros de guerra.
11 Destruiré también tus ciudades
y derribaré todas tus torres.
12 Pondré fin a tus hechicerías
y acabaré con todos tus adivinos.
13 Destruiré tus ídolos y tus imágenes,
y no volverás a adorar
a dioses que tú mismo hiciste.
14 ¡Yo destruiré tus ciudades
y las imágenes de tu diosa Astarté!
15 ¡Yo me vengaré con gran furia
de las naciones que no me obedecieron!»
弥迦书 5
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
耶和华的应许
5 耶路撒冷的居民[a]啊，
现在你们要调集军队！
敌人正四面围攻我们，
要用杖击打以色列首领的脸颊。
2 以法他的伯利恒啊，
你在犹大各城中毫不起眼，
但将有一位从你那里出来，
为我统治以色列；
祂的根源自亘古，来自太初。
3 耶和华要将以色列人交给他们的敌人，
直到那临盆的妇人生下儿子。
那时，祂流亡的弟兄将重返他们的以色列同胞那里。
4 祂要挺身而起，
倚靠耶和华的能力，
奉祂上帝耶和华的威名牧养祂的群羊。
他们将安然居住，
因为那时祂必受尊崇，直达地极。
5 祂必给他们带来平安！
亚述人侵略我们的国土、践踏我们的宫殿时，
我们将选立七位牧者和八位首领抗击他们。
6 他们要用刀剑统治亚述，统治宁录地区。
亚述人侵入我们国境、践踏我们疆土时，
祂必拯救我们。
7 雅各余剩的子孙将在万民中像从耶和华那里降下的雨露，
又像洒在草上的甘霖。
他们不依靠人，
不冀望于世人。
8 在各国各民中，
雅各余剩的子孙犹如林间百兽中的狮子，
又像闯入羊群的猛狮，
将猎物扑倒撕碎，
无人能搭救。
9 愿你们伸手战胜仇敌！
愿你们的仇敌都被铲除！
10 耶和华说：
“到那日，
我要消灭你们的战马，
毁坏你们的战车。
11 我要摧毁你们境内的城邑，
拆除你们所有的堡垒。
12 我要除掉你们手中的巫术，
使你们那里不再有占卜的。
13 我要从你们中间除去雕刻的神像和神柱，
使你们不再跪拜自己所造的。
14 我要从你们中间铲除亚舍拉神像，
毁灭你们的偶像。
15 我要在烈怒中报应那些不听从我的国家。”

Micah 5
King James Version
5 Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
5 And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.
6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders.
7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from the Lord, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.
8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
9 Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots:
11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:
12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers:
13 Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thine hands.
14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I destroy thy cities.
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
Micah 5
New King James Version
The Messiah Will Be Born at Bethlehem
5 Now gather yourself in troops,
O daughter of troops;
He has laid siege against us;
They will (A)strike the judge of Israel with a rod on the cheek.
The Coming Messiah
2 “But you, (B)Bethlehem (C)Ephrathah,
Though you are little (D)among the (E)thousands of Judah,
Yet out of you shall come forth to Me
The One to be (F)Ruler in Israel,
(G)Whose goings forth are from of old,
From [a]everlasting.”
3 Therefore He shall give them up,
Until the time that (H)she who is in labor has given birth;
Then (I)the remnant of His brethren
Shall return to the children of Israel.
4 And He shall stand and (J)feed[b] His flock
In the strength of the Lord,
In the majesty of the name of the Lord His God;
And they shall abide,
For now He (K)shall be great
To the ends of the earth;
5 And this One (L)shall be peace.
Judgment on Israel’s Enemies
When the Assyrian comes into our land,
And when he treads in our palaces,
Then we will raise against him
Seven shepherds and eight princely men.
6 They shall [c]waste with the sword the land of Assyria,
And the land of (M)Nimrod at its entrances;
Thus He shall (N)deliver us from the Assyrian,
When he comes into our land
And when he treads within our borders.
7 Then (O)the remnant of Jacob
Shall be in the midst of many peoples,
(P)Like dew from the Lord,
Like showers on the grass,
That [d]tarry for no man
Nor [e]wait for the sons of men.
8 And the remnant of Jacob
Shall be among the Gentiles,
In the midst of many peoples,
Like a (Q)lion among the beasts of the forest,
Like a young lion among flocks of sheep,
Who, if he passes through,
Both treads down and tears in pieces,
And none can deliver.
9 Your hand shall be lifted against your adversaries,
And all your enemies shall be [f]cut off.
10 “And it shall be in that day,” says the Lord,
“That I will (R)cut[g] off your (S)horses from your midst
And destroy your (T)chariots.
11 I will cut off the cities of your land
And throw down all your strongholds.
12 I will cut off sorceries from your hand,
And you shall have no (U)soothsayers.
13 (V)Your carved images I will also cut off,
And your sacred pillars from your midst;
You shall (W)no more worship the work of your hands;
14 I will pluck your [h]wooden images from your midst;
Thus I will destroy your cities.
15 And I will (X)execute vengeance in anger and fury
On the nations that have not [i]heard.”
