Miqueas 2
1 ¡Ay de los que piensan iniquidad, y de los que fabrican el mal en sus camas! y cuando viene la mañana lo ponen en obra, porque tienen en su mano el poder.
They meditated troubles, and wrought wickedness on their beds, and they put it in execution with the daylight; for they have not lifted up their hands to God.
2 Y codiciaron las heredades, y las robaron: y casas, y las tomaron: oprimieron al hombre y a su casa, al hombre y a su heredad.
And they desired fields, and plundered orphans, and oppressed families, and spoiled a man and his house, even a man and his inheritance.
3 Por tanto así dijo Jehová: He aquí que yo pienso mal sobre esta familia, del cual no sacaréis vuestros cuellos, ni andaréis enhiestos, porque el tiempo será malo.
Therefore thus says the Lord; Behold, I devise evils against this family, out of which you shall not lift up your necks, neither shall you walk upright speedily: for the time is evil.
4 En aquel tiempo se levantará sobre vosotros refrán, y se endechará endecha de lamentación, diciendo: Del todo fuimos destruidos: trocó la parte de mi pueblo: ¡cómo nos quitó nuestros campos! dio, los repartió a otros.
In that day shall a parable be taken up against you, and a plaintive lamentation shall be uttered, saying, We are thoroughly miserable: the portion of my people has been measured out with a line, and there was none to hinder him so as to turn him back; your fields have been divided.
5 Por tanto no tendrás quien eche cordel para suerte en la congregación de Jehová.
Therefore you shall have no one to cast a line for the lot.
6 No profeticéis, los que profetizáis, no les profeticen que los ha de comprender vergüenza.
Weep not with tears in the assembly of the Lord, neither let [any] weep for these things; for he shall not remove the reproaches,
7 La que te dices, casa de Jacob: ¿Háse acortado el Espíritu de Jehová? ¿son estas sus obras? ¿Mis palabras no hacen bien al que camina derechamente?
who says, The house of Jacob has provoked the Spirit of the Lord; are not these his practices? Are not the Lord's words right with him? and have they not proceeded correctly?
8 El que ayer era mi pueblo se ha levantado como enemigo tras la vestidura: quitasteis las capas atrevidamente a los que pasaban, como los que vuelven de la guerra.
Even beforetime my people withstood [him] as an enemy against his peace; they have stripped off his skin to remove hope [in] the conflict of war.
9 A las mujeres de mi pueblo echasteis fuera de las casas de sus deleites: a sus niños quitasteis mi perpetua alabanza.
The leaders of my people shall be cast forth from their luxurious houses; they are rejected because of their evil practices; draw you near to the everlasting mountains.
10 Levantáos, y andád: que no es esta la holganza; porque está contaminada, corrompióse, y de grande corrupción.
Arise you, and depart; for this is not your rest because of uncleanness: you have been utterly destroyed;
11 Si hubiere alguno que ande con el viento, y mienta mentiras, diciendo: Yo te profetizaré, por vino, y por sidra: este tal será profeta a este pueblo.
you have fled, no one pursuing [you: your] spirit has framed falsehood, it has dropped on you for wine and strong drink. But it shall come to pass, [that] out of the dropping of this people,
12 Juntando te juntaré todo, o! Jacob: recogiendo recogeré la resta de Israel: ponerle he junto como ovejas de Bosra, como rebaño en mitad de su majada: harán estruendo por la multitud de los hombres.
Jacob shall be completely gathered with all [his people: ] I will surely receive the remnant of Israel; I will cause them to return together, as sheep in trouble, as a flock in the midst of their fold: they shall rush forth from among men through the breach made before them:
13 Subirá rompedor delante de ellos: romperán, y pasarán la puerta, y saldrán por ella; y su rey pasará delante de ellos, Jehová por su cabeza.
they have broken through, and passed the gate, and gone out by it: and their king has gone out before them, and the Lord shall lead them.
