< Micah 1 >

1 This is the word of the LORD that came to Micah the Moreshite in the days of Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah—what he saw regarding Samaria and Jerusalem:
Rijeè Gospodnja koja doðe Miheju Moreseæaninu za vremena Joatama, Ahaza i Jezekije, careva Judinijeh, što vidje za Samariju i za Jerusalim.
2 Hear, O peoples, all of you; listen, O earth, and everyone in it! May the Lord GOD bear witness against you, the Lord from His holy temple.
Èujte, svi narodi, slušaj, zemljo i što je na njoj, i Gospod Bog da vam je svjedok, Gospod iz svete crkve svoje.
3 For behold, the LORD comes forth from His dwelling place; He will come down and tread on the high places of the earth.
Jer, gle, Gospod izlazi iz mjesta svojega, i siæi æe, i hodiæe po visinama zemaljskim.
4 The mountains will melt beneath Him, and the valleys will split apart, like wax before the fire, like water rushing down a slope.
I gore æe se rastopiti pred njim, i doline æe se rasjesti, kao vosak od ognja i kao voda što teèe niz strmen.
5 All this is for the transgression of Jacob and the sins of the house of Israel. What is the transgression of Jacob? Is it not Samaria? And what is the high place of Judah? Is it not Jerusalem?
Sve je to za zloèinstvo Jakovljevo i za grijehe doma Izrailjeva. Koje je zloèinstvo Jakovljevo? nije li Samarija? koje su visine Judine? nije li Jerusalim?
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a heap of rubble in the open field, a planting area for a vineyard. I will pour her stones into the valley and expose her foundations.
Zato æu uèiniti od Samarije gomilu u polju da se sade vinogradi, i pobacaæu kamenje njezino u dolinu i otkriæu joj temelje.
7 All her carved images will be smashed to pieces; all her wages will be burned in the fire, and I will destroy all her idols. Since she collected the wages of a prostitute, they will be used again on a prostitute.
I svi rezani likovi njezini razbiæe se, i svi æe se darovi njezini sažeæi ognjem, i sve æu idole njezine potrti, jer od plate kurvarske nakupi, i opet æe biti plata kurvarska.
8 Because of this I will lament and wail; I will walk barefoot and naked. I will howl like a jackal and mourn like an ostrich.
Zato æu plakati i ridati; hodiæu svuèen i go; plakaæu kao zmajevi i tužiæu kao sove.
9 For her wound is incurable; it has reached even Judah; it has approached the gate of my people, as far as Jerusalem itself.
Jer joj se rane ne mogu iscijeliti, doðoše do Jude, dopriješe do vrata mojega naroda, do Jerusalima.
10 Do not tell it in Gath; do not weep at all. Roll in the dust in Beth-leaphrah.
Ne javljajte u Gatu, ne plaèite; u Vit-Afri valjaj se po prahu.
11 Depart in shameful nakedness, O dwellers of Shaphir. The dwellers of Zaanan will not come out. Beth-ezel is in mourning; its support is taken from you.
Izidi, stanovnice Safirska, s golom sramotom; stanovnica Sananska neæe izaæi; žalost Vet-ezilska neæe vam dati stanka.
12 For the dwellers of Maroth pined for good, but calamity came down from the LORD, even to the gate of Jerusalem.
Jer stanovnica Marotska tuži za svojim dobrom. Jer siðe zlo od Gospoda do vrata Jerusalimskih.
13 Harness your chariot horses, O dweller of Lachish. You were the beginning of sin to the Daughter of Zion, for the transgressions of Israel were found in you.
Upregni brze konje u kola, stanovnice Lahiska, koja si poèetak grijehu kæeri Sionskoj, jer se u tebi naðoše zloèinstva Izrailjeva.
14 Therefore, send farewell gifts to Moresheth-gath; the houses of Achzib will prove deceptive to the kings of Israel.
Zato pošlji dare Moresetu Gatskom; domovi Ahsivski prevariæe careve Izrailjeve.
15 I will again bring a conqueror against you, O dweller of Mareshah. The glory of Israel will come to Adullam.
Još æu ti dovesti našljednika, stanovnice Mariska; doæi æe do Odolama, slave Izrailjeve.
16 Shave yourselves bald and cut off your hair in mourning for your precious children; make yourselves as bald as an eagle, for they will go from you into exile.
Naèini se æelava i ostrizi se za milom djecom svojom; raširi æelu svoju kao orao, jer se vode od tebe u ropstvo.
