Micah 4
1 In the days to come the mountain of the Lord will be established, the house of our God on the top of the mountain, lifted above the hills. All the nations will flow to it,
Bara dhumaa keessa tulluun mana qulqullummaa Waaqayyoo tulluuwwan hunda keessaa ol dheeratee dhaabata; inni gaarran caalaa ol ol jedha; namoonnis itti yaaʼu.
2 and many peoples will go and say, ‘Come, let us go up to the Lord’s mount, to the house of the God of Jacob, so that he may instruct us in his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.’ For from Zion proceeds instruction and the Lord’s word from Jerusalem.
Saboonni baayʼeen dhufanii akkana jedhu; “Kottaa gara tulluu Waaqayyoo, gara mana Waaqa Yaaqoob ol baanaa. Inni akka nu daandii isaa irra deemnuuf karaa isaa nu barsiisa.” Seerri Xiyoon keessaa, dubbiin Waaqayyoo immoo Yerusaalem keessaa dhufa.
3 He will arbitrate between many peoples, and render decisions for numerous nations, They will beat their swords into ploughshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, they will learn war no more.
Inni namoota hedduu gidduutti murtii kennee saboota jajjaboo gargar fagoo jiranis walitti araarsa. Isaan goraadee isaanii tumanii maarashaa, eeboo isaanii illee haamtuu tolfatu. Sabni tokko saba biraatti goraadee hin luqqifatu yookaan waraanaaf jedhanii siʼachi nama hin leenjisan.
4 They will live each under his vine, and under his fig tree, with none to terrify them. For the mouth of the Lord of hosts has spoken.
Namni hundi muka wayinii isaatii fi muka harbuu isaa jala taaʼa; Waaqayyoon Waan Hunda Dandaʼu dubbateeraatii namni isaan sodaachisu tokko iyyuu hin jiru.
5 Each nation trusts in the names of their gods, but we will worship the Lord our God forever.
Saboonni hundinuu maqaa waaqota isaaniitiin deddeebiʼu; nu immoo bara baraa hamma bara baraatti maqaa Waaqayyo Waaqa keenyaatiin deddeebina.
6 ‘On that day,’ says the Lord, ‘I will assemble the lame. I will gather exiles I punished.
Waaqayyo akkana jedha; “Ani bara sana naafa walittin qaba; warra boojiʼamanii fi warra ani gaddisiises walittin qaba.
7 I will restore the lame as a remnant, the exiles into a great nation. The Lord will rule over them on Mount Zion from that time forever.’
Ani warra naafa hambaa, warra ariʼame immoo saba jabaa nan godha. Waaqayyo guyyaa sanaa jalqabee hamma bara baraatti Tulluu Xiyoon irratti bulchaa isaanii taʼa.
8 But you, watchtower for the flock, hill of the daughter of Zion, to you will return your former rule.
Yaa gamoo eegumsa bushaayee, yaa daʼoo Intala Xiyoon, ol aantummaan durii siif ni deebifama; mootummaan Intala Yerusaalem ni dhufa.”
9 So why do you now cry aloud? Haven’t you any king? Or has your counsellor perished, so you writhe in pain like a woman in labour?
Ati amma maaliif akkana iyyitee boossa? Ati mootii hin qabduu? Wanni ati akka dubartii ciniinsuun qabee miixattuuf gorsaan kee badeetii?
10 Writhe and scream, daughter of Zion, like a woman in labour! For now you must leave the city and camp in the open field. You will be taken to Babylon, but there will be rescued. There the Lord will save you from the hands of your foes.
Yaa Intala Xiyoon, akkuma dubartii ciniinsuun qabeetti aadi; ati amma bakkee keessa qubachuuf magaalaa keessaa baʼuu qabdaatii. Ati Baabilon dhaqxa; achitti ni baraaramta. Waaqayyo achitti harka diina keetii keessaa si fura.
11 But now many nations gather against you. They say, ‘Let her be defiled, we will gloat over Zion.’
Amma garuu saboonni hedduun si marsaniiru. Isaanis, “Isheen haa xurooftu; iji keenya xiyyeeffatee Xiyoonin haa ilaalu!” jedhu.
12 But they do not know the thoughts of the Lord. They do not understand his plan, for he has gathered them like sheaves for the threshing floor.
Isaan garuu yaada Waaqayyoo hin beekan; isaan karoora isaa kan inni akkuma bissii oobdiitti walitti qabe sana hin hubatan.
13 ‘Arise, thresh, daughter of Zion. I will make your horns iron, and your hoofs brass, so you might beat in pieces many peoples, and devote to the Lord their spoil, and their wealth to the ruler of all the earth.
“Yaa Intala Xiyoon kaʼiitii midhaan dhaʼi; ani gaanfa sibiilaa siif nan kennaatii; ani kottee naasii siif nan kenna; atis saboota baayʼee caccabsita.” Ati horii isaan karaa hamaadhaan argatan Waaqayyoof kennita; qabeenya isaaniis Gooftaa lafa hundaatiif kennita.
