< Mikias 4 >

1 Ngem iti maudi nga al aldaw, mapasamakto a ti bantay ti balay ni Yahweh ket maipasdekto iti rabaw dagiti kabambantayan. Maitan-okto daytoy iti ngatoen dagiti turod, ket agdarisonto dagiti tattao ditoy.
But in the latter days, it will happen that the mountain of the LORD's temple will be established on the top of the mountains, and it will be exalted above the hills; and peoples will stream to it.
2 Adu a nasion ti mapan ket kunaenda, “Umaykayo, sumang-attayo idiay bantay ni Yahweh, iti balay ti Dios ni Jacob. Isurona kadatayo dagiti dalanna, ket magnatayo kadagiti dananna. Manipud Sion ket rummuar ti linteg, ken aggapu ti Jerusalem ti sao ni Yahweh.
Many nations will go and say, "Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD, and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths." For out of Zion will go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem;
3 Mangukomto isuna kadagiti adu a tattao ken mangikeddeng ti maipanggep kadagiti adu a nasion iti adayo. Pitpitendanto dagiti kampilanda tapno agbalin nga arado, ken tapno agbalin met a kumpay dagiti gayangda. Saanton nga ilayat ti nasion ti kampilanna a maibusor iti nasion, wenno adalen no kasano ti makigubat.
and he will judge between many peoples, and will decide concerning strong nations afar off. They will beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war any more.
4 Ngem ketdi, agtugawto ti tunggal maysa a tao iti sirok ti kaubasanna, ken iti sirok ti kayona nga igos. Awanto ti mangpabuteng kadakuada, ta ti ngiwat ni Yahweh a Mannakabalin amin iti nagsao.
But they will sit every man under his vine and under his fig tree; and no one will make them afraid: For the mouth of the LORD of hosts has spoken.
5 Ta magna amin a tattao, tunggal maysa, iti nagan iti diosda. Ngem magnatayonto iti nagan ni Yahweh a Diostayo iti agnanayon nga awan patinggana.
Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods; but we will walk in the name of the LORD our God forever and ever.
6 “Iti dayta nga aldaw”, kuna ni Yahweh, “Ummongekto dagiti pilay ket urnongekto dagiti napagtalaw, a pinagsagabak.
"In that day," says the LORD, "I will assemble that which is lame, and I will gather that which is driven away, and that which I have afflicted;
7 Ket pagbalinekto dagiti pilay a tidda, ken dagiti naitalaw iti nabileg a nasion, ket Siak ni Yahweh ti agturayto kadakuada idiay bantay Sion, ita ken iti agnanayon.
and I will make that which was lame a remnant, and that which was cast far off a strong nation: and the LORD will reign over them on Mount Zion from then on, even forever."
8 Ket sika a pagwanawanan iti arban, turod ti babai nga anak iti Sion, umayto kenka— umayto ti sigud a turay, ti pagarian iti anak a babai ti Jerusalem.
And you, tower of the flock, hill of the daughter of Zion, to you it will come, the former dominion will come, the kingdom of the daughter of Jerusalem.
9 Ita, apay nga agsangitka iti nakapigpigsa? Awan kadi ti ari, napukaw kadin ti mammagbagam, dagita nga ut-ot a mangtengtengngel kenka a kasla iti babai nga agpasikal?
Now why do you cry out aloud? Is there no king in you? Has your counselor perished, that pain has gripped you like a woman in labor?
10 Agtuok ket agpasngayka, anak a babai ti Sion, a kas iti babai nga agpasikal. Ta manipud ita ket rummuarka iti siudad, agnaedka iti langalang, ken mapanka idiay Babilonia. Maispalkanto sadiay. Isalakanakanto sadiay ni Yahweh manipud kadagiti ima ti kabusormo.
Be in pain, and labor to bring forth, daughter of Zion, like a woman in travail; for now you will go forth out of the city, and will dwell in the field, and will come even to Babylon. There you will be rescued. There the LORD will redeem you from the hand of your enemies.
11 Adu a nasion ti naguornong ita a maibusor kenka; ket kunada, 'Matulawan koma isuna; makitatayo koma ti pannakadadael ti Sion.'”
Now many nations have assembled against you, that say, "Let her be defiled, and let our eye gloat over Zion."
12 Kuna dagiti profeta, Saanda nga ammo dagiti pampanunoten ni Yahweh, ken saanda a maawatan dagiti panggepna, ta inurnongna ida a kasla rineppet iti pagir-irikan.
But they do not know the thoughts of the LORD, neither do they understand his counsel; for he has gathered them like the sheaves to the threshing floor.
13 Kuna ni Yahweh, “Bumangonka ket agirikka, O anak a babai ti Sion, ta aramidekto a landok ti saram, ken aramidekto a gambang ti kukom. Adunto ti maparmekmo a tattao. Siak ni Yahweh ket subliekto dagiti binallikogda a kinabaknang, dagiti sanikuada, subliekto, Siak ti Apo ti sangalubongan.”
Arise and thresh, daughter of Zion; for I will make your horn iron, and I will make your hoofs bronze; and you will beat in pieces many peoples: and I will devote their gain to the LORD, and their substance to the Lord of the whole earth.
