Micah 1
1 Here is the message that the Lord gave to Micah of Moresheth at the time when Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah were kings of Judah. This is what he saw concerning Samaria and Jerusalem.
當猶大王約坦、亞哈斯、希西家在位的時候，摩利沙人彌迦得耶和華的默示，論撒馬利亞和耶路撒冷。
2 Listen, all the nations! Pay attention, everyone on earth! The Lord God testifies against you from the Lord's holy Temple.
萬民哪，你們都要聽！ 地和其上所有的，也都要側耳而聽！ 主耶和華從他的聖殿 要見證你們的不是。
3 Look! The Lord is coming, leaving his place and coming down, and is walking on the high places of the earth.
看哪，耶和華出了他的居所， 降臨步行地的高處。
4 The mountains melt beneath him, the valleys burst apart, like wax in front of a fire, like water rushing down a slope. All this is happening because of the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob, the sins of the people of Israel.
眾山在他以下必消化， 諸谷必崩裂， 如蠟化在火中， 如水沖下山坡。
5 What is the rebellion of the descendants of Jacob? Isn't it what is happening in Samaria? Where are the idolatrous high places of Judah? Aren't they right in Jerusalem?
這都因雅各的罪過， 以色列家的罪惡。 雅各的罪過在哪裏呢？ 豈不是在撒馬利亞嗎？ 猶大的邱壇在哪裏呢？ 豈不是在耶路撒冷嗎？
6 Therefore I will make Samaria a pile of rubble in a field, a place for planting vineyards. I will roll its stones down into the valley; I will lay bare its foundations.
所以我必使撒馬利亞變為田野的亂堆， 又作為種葡萄之處； 也必將她的石頭倒在谷中， 露出根基來。
7 All their carved idols will be smashed to pieces. All that was earned by their temple prostitutes will be burned. All of their idols will be destroyed, for what she collected through the earnings of temple prostitutes will be taken away and used to pay other temple prostitutes.
她一切雕刻的偶像必被打碎； 她所得的財物必被火燒； 所有的偶像我必毀滅； 因為是從妓女雇價所聚來的， 後必歸為妓女的雇價。
8 Because of this I will weep and wail, I will walk barefoot and naked, and will howl like jackals and mourn like owls.
先知說：因此我必大聲哀號， 赤腳露體而行； 又要呼號如野狗， 哀鳴如鴕鳥。
9 Their wound cannot be healed, it has extended to Judah, and reached right to the gates of Jerusalem.
因為撒馬利亞的傷痕無法醫治， 延及猶大和耶路撒冷我民的城門。
10 Don't mention it in Gath; don't weep at all. People of Beth-le-aphrah, roll in the dust.
不要在迦特報告這事， 總不要哭泣； 我在伯‧亞弗拉滾於灰塵之中。
11 Leave, people of Shaphir, naked and ashamed. People of Zanaan don't come out. People of Beth Ezel mourn, for you have lost your support.
沙斐的居民哪，你們要赤身蒙羞過去。 撒南的居民不敢出來。 伯‧以薛人的哀哭使你們無處可站。
12 The people of Maroth wait anxiously for relief, but disaster has come down from the Lord on the gate of Jerusalem.
瑪律的居民心甚憂急，切望得好處， 因為災禍從耶和華那裏臨到耶路撒冷的城門。
13 Harness the team of horses to the chariot, you people of Lachish, because the sins of the people of Jerusalem began with you, for the sins of Israel were first found in you.
拉吉的居民哪，要用快馬套車； 錫安民的罪由你而起； 以色列人的罪過在你那裏顯出。
14 Send your goodbye gifts to Moresheth. The town of Achzib is a deception to the kings of Israel.
猶大啊，你要將禮物送給摩利設‧迦特。 亞革悉的眾族必用詭詐待以色列諸王。
15 I will bring a conqueror to attack you, people of Moresheth. The leaders of Israel will go to Adullam.
瑪利沙的居民哪， 我必使那奪取你的來到你這裏； 以色列的尊貴人必到亞杜蘭。
16 Shave your heads, for the children you love will be taken away; make yourselves as bald as a vulture, for they will be exiled far away from you.
猶大啊，要為你所喜愛的兒女剪除你的頭髮， 使頭光禿，要大大地光禿，如同禿鷹， 因為他們都被擄去離開你。
