< Micah 2 >

1 Woe to those who devise iniquity and work evil on their beds. When the morning is light, they practice it, because it is in the power of their hand.
祸哉,那些在床上图谋罪孽、造作奸恶的! 天一发亮,因手有能力就行出来了。
2 They covet fields, and seize them; and houses, and take them away: and they oppress a man and his house, even a man and his heritage.
他们贪图田地就占据, 贪图房屋便夺取; 他们欺压人,霸占房屋和产业。
3 Therefore thus says Jehovah: "Look, I am planning against these people a disaster, from which you will not remove your necks, neither will you walk haughtily; for it is an evil time.
所以耶和华如此说: 我筹划灾祸降与这族; 这祸在你们的颈项上不能解脱; 你们也不能昂首而行, 因为这时势是恶的。
4 In that day they will take up a parable against you, and lament with a doleful lamentation, saying, 'We are utterly ruined. My people's possession is divided up. Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors.'"
到那日,必有人向你们提起悲惨的哀歌, 讥刺说:我们全然败落了! 耶和华将我们的分转归别人, 何竟使这分离开我们? 他将我们的田地分给悖逆的人。
5 Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the assembly of Jehovah.
所以在耶和华的会中, 你必没有人拈阄拉准绳。
6 "Do not prophesy." They prophesy. "Do not prophesy about these things. Disgrace won't overtake us."
他们说:你们不可说预言; 不可向这些人说预言, 不住地羞辱我们。
7 Shall it be said, O house of Jacob: "Is the Spirit of Jehovah angry? Are these his doings? Do not my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?"
雅各家啊,岂可说耶和华的心不忍耐吗? 这些事是他所行的吗? 我—耶和华的言语岂不是与行动正直的人有益吗?
8 But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.
然而,近来我的民兴起如仇敌, 从那些安然经过不愿打仗之人身上剥去外衣。
9 You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; from their young children you take away my blessing forever.
你们将我民中的妇人从安乐家中赶出, 又将我的荣耀从她们的小孩子尽行夺去。
10 Arise, and depart. For this is not your resting place, because of uncleanness that destroys, even with a grievous destruction.
你们起来去吧! 这不是你们安息之所; 因为污秽使人毁灭, 而且大大毁灭。
11 If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies: "I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink;" he would be the prophet of this people.
若有人心存虚假,用谎言说: 我要向你们预言得清酒和浓酒。 那人就必作这民的先知。
12 I will surely assemble, Jacob, all of you; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, as a flock in the midst of their pasture; they will swarm with people.
雅各家啊,我必要聚集你们, 必要招聚以色列剩下的人, 安置在一处,如波斯拉的羊, 又如草场上的羊群; 因为人数众多就必大大喧哗。
13 The breaker goes up before them. They break through the gate, and go out. And their king passes on before them, with Jehovah at their head.
开路的在他们前面上去; 他们直闯过城门,从城门出去。 他们的王在前面行; 耶和华引导他们。
