Micah 5
1 Mwet Jerusalem, orani mwet mweun lowos! Rauniyukyak kut! Elos ac sringil inwalin leum se lasr inge!
Now come together in battle ranks, daughter of soldiers; the soldiers have set up a siege around city, with a rod they will strike the judge of Israel on the cheek.
2 LEUM GOD El fahk, “Bethlehem Ephrathah, kom sie sin acn ma srik oemeet in acn Judah, tusruktu nga fah use sie mwet kol lun Israel keim me, su takin sou lal nuna ma oemeet me.”
But you, Bethlehem Ephrathah, even though you are small among the clans of Judah, out of you one will come to me to rule in Israel, whose beginning is from ancient times, from everlasting.
3 Ouinge LEUM GOD El ac fah fuhleang mwet lal nu inpoun mwet lokoalok lalos nwe ke pacl se mutan se ma ac oswela tulik mukul se inge el isusla. Na mwet Israel wial su muta in sruoh fah folokeni nu yurin mwet lalos sifacna.
Therefore God will give them up, until the time when she who is in labor bears a child, and the rest of his brothers return to the people of Israel.
4 Ke pacl se el tuku, el fah leumi mwet lal ke ku su tuku sin LEUM GOD me, ac ke wal fulatlana lun LEUM GOD sifacna. Mwet lal fah muta in misla mweyen mwet fin faclu nufon fah akilen fulatlana lal,
He will stand and shepherd his flock in the strength of Yahweh, in the majesty of the name of Yahweh his God. They will remain, for then he will be great to the ends of the earth.
5 ac el fah use misla. Ke mwet Assyria elos ac utyak nu fin acn sesr ac fokolla pot ku lasr, kut fah supwala mwet kol ma ku oemeet lasr in lainulos.
For this shall be the peace— when the Assyrians come into our land, and when they march against our fortresses, then we will raise against them seven shepherds and eight leaders over men.
6 Ke ku lun mwe mweun lalos elos fah kutangla Assyria, acn lal Nimrod, ac elos fah molikutla liki mwet Assyria ke mwet Assyria elos utyak nu fin acn sesr.
They will shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in its entrances. He will rescue us from the Assyrians, when they come into our land, when they march inside our borders.
7 Mwet Israel su painmoulla ac fah oana aunfong su tuku sin LEUM GOD me in akoyohuye mutunfacl puspis, ac oana af nu fin ma kapak inima uh. Elos ac fah lulalfongi God, ac tia mwet uh.
The remnant of Jacob will be in the midst of many peoples, like dew from Yahweh, like showers on the grass, that do not wait for a man, and they do not wait for the children of mankind.
8 Elos su ac lula inmasrlon mutunfacl uh ac fah oana soko lion su suk mwe mongo nal in ima uh, ku oana soko lion fusr inmasrlon un sheep in acn musrasra. El ac mahsrikyak inmasrlon sheep uh, atuyang nu faclos ac srelosi in ip srisrik, ac wangin sie in molelosla.
The remnant of Jacob will be among the nations, among many peoples, like a lion among the animals of the forest, like a young lion among the flocks of sheep. When he goes through them, he will trample over them and tear them to pieces, and there will be no one to save them.
9 Israel ac fah kutangla mwet lokoalok lal ac kunauselosla nukewa.
Your hand will be lifted against your enemies, and it will destroy them.
10 LEUM GOD El fahk, “In pacl sac nga fah eisla horse nutuwos ac kunausla chariot nutuwos.
“It will happen in that day”—this is Yahweh's declaration— “that I will destroy your horses from among you and will demolish your chariots.
11 Nga fah kunausla siti nukewa ac ikruiya pot ku nukewa lowos.
I will destroy the cities in your land and throw down all your strongholds.
12 Nga fah kunausla inutnut lowos ac eisla mwet nukewa su muta palye ma ac sikyak uh.
I will destroy the witchcraft in your hand, and you will no longer have any diviners.
13 Nga fah kunausla ma sruloala ac sru oal lowos, ac kowos fah tia sifil alyalu nu ke ma kowos sifacna orala.
I will destroy your carved figures and your stone pillars from among you. You will no longer worship the workmanship of your hands.
14 Nga fah koteya ma sruloala ma orekla in lumahl god mutan Asherah in acn suwos, ac kunausla siti lowos nukewa.
I will uproot your Asherah poles from among you, and I will destroy your cities.
15 Ac in kasrkusrak lulap luk, nga fah oru folok sak luk nu fin mutunfacl nukewa ma tiana akosyu.”
I will execute vengeance in anger and wrath on the nations that have not listened.”
