< Micah 7 >

1 Woe, woe is me, for I have become like a field after harvest, like a vineyard after gathering; not a cluster of grapes to eat, not a fig that anyone desires.
Asi-ak pay! Para kaniak ket kasla nalpasen iti panagaapit iti bunga a maapit iti kalgaw, kasta met ti matudtod a nabati nga ubas kadagiti kaubasan: Awanen ti masarakan a rinaay a prutas, ngem tarigagayak pay laeng dagiti umuna a naluom a bunga ti igos.
2 The honest have perished from the land, of the upright among people there is none. All of them lie in wait to shed blood. They hunt one another with the net.
Napukawen ti nadiosan a tao iti daga; awanen ti nabati a nalinteg kadagiti tattao. Agsanebda amin a mangpatay iti sabali a tattao; anupen ti tunggal maysa ti kabsatna.
3 Their hands know well how to do evil, the officer and judge demands a bribe, the high official decides as he pleases and they conspire to pervert justice.
Nalaingda nga agaramid iti kinaranggas: agdawat ti kuarta ti agturay, agdawat iti pasuksok ti ukom, ken ibagbaga ti nabileg a tao kadagiti dadduma a tattao dagiti kayatna a gun-oden. Ket agpanggepda iti dakes a sangsangkamaysa.
4 The best of them are like a thorn thicket, their most upright like a prickly hedge. The day of their punishment has come, now will be their confusion!
Maiyarig iti siitan a mula dagiti kalaingan ken maiyarig iti naiyalad a siitan a mula ti kalilintegan kadakuada. Daytoy ti aldaw nga imballaag dagiti pagbanbantayenyo, ti aldaw iti pannakadusayo. Dimtengen ita ti pannakaburiborda.
5 Do not trust your neighbour, do not rely on a friend. From the wife who lies in your arms guard your tongue.
Saanka nga agtalek iti uray siasino a kaarubam, saanmo nga ited ti talekmo iti uray siasinoman a gayyem. Agannadka kadagiti isawsawangmo uray iti babai nga aggid-idda iti takiagmo.
6 For son insults father, daughter rises up against mother, daughter-in-law against mother-in-law, a man’s enemies are the people of his own household.
Ta saanen a dayawen ti anak a lalaki ti amana, tumakder ti anak a babai a maibusor iti inana, ken busoren ti manugang a babai ti katuganganna a babai. Dagiti kabusor ti tao ket dagiti tattao iti bukodna a balay.
7 But I will look to the Lord, I will wait for the God of my salvation. My God will hear me!
Ngem no maipapan kaniak, kumitaak kenni Yahweh. Urayek ti Dios ti pannakaisalakanko; denggennakto ti Diosko.
8 Do not rejoice over me, my enemy. If I have fallen, I will rise. If I sit in darkness, the Lord is my light.
Saandak a katawaan, dakayo a kabusorko. Kalpasan ti pannakatnagko, bumangonakto. Inton agtugawak iti kasipngetan, agbalinto ni Yahweh a silawko.
9 The anger of the Lord I will bear, for against him have I sinned – until he champions my cause and gives judgment for me. He will bring me into to the light, I will see his justice.
Gapu ta nagbasolak kenni Yahweh, lak-amek ti pungtotna agingga nga ikaluyanak, ken ukomennak. Ipannakto iti lawag, ket makitakto ti panangispalna kaniak iti kinalintegna.
10 So my enemy will see, and shame will cover them, they who said, ‘Where is the Lord your God?’ I will look upon them, they will be trampled on like mud in the street!
Ket makitanto dayta dagita kabusorko, ket mabainanto dagidiay nagkuna kaniak, “Sadino ti ayan ni Yahweh a Diosmo?” Kitaekto isuna; mabaddebaddekanto isuna a kasla pitak kadagiti kalsada.
11 It is a day for rebuilding your walls, this day will your boundary will be extended.
Dumtengto ti aldaw a panangpatakdermo kadagiti padermo; iti dayta nga aldaw, maipalawanto la unay dagiti beddengmo.
12 This day they will come to you, from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the Euphrates River, from sea to sea, and from mountain to mountain.
Iti dayta nga aldaw, umayto kenka dagiti tattaom, nga aggapu iti Asiria ken kadagiti siudad ti Egipto, manipud Egipto agingga iti dakkel a karayan, ti Euprates, manipud iti baybay agingga iti sabali a baybay, manipud iti bantay agingga iti dadduma bantay.
13 Though the land has become a desolation because of its inhabitants, because of their deeds.
Ket aglangalangto dagidiay a daga gapu kadagiti tattao nga agnanaed ita sadiay, gapu iti bunga dagiti aramidda.
14 Shepherd your flock with your staff, the flock that belong to you, who live alone in the forest, in the midst of meadows; so that they may pasture in Bashon and Gilead as in the days of old,
Ipastormo dagiti tattaom babaen iti sarukodmo, ti arban a kas tawidmo. Uray no agnanaedda nga agwaywayas iti kabakiran ti Bantay Carmel, palubosam ida a mangan idiay Basan ken Galaad a kas idi punganay.
15 as in the days when you came from Egypt, gave us wonders to see.
Kas kadagiti al-aldaw idi rimmuarkayo iti daga ti Egipto, ipakitakto kadakuada dagiti milagro.
16 Nations will see and be ashamed of all their might; they will put their hands to their mouth, their ears will become deaf,
Makitanto dagiti nasion ti aramiden ni Yahweh ket mabainandanto gapu ta awan ti bilegda. Iyapputdanto dagiti imada kadagiti ngiwatda; agbalindanto a tuleng.
17 they will lick the dust like snakes, like creatures that crawl on the earth; they will come trembling and in terror from their hiding places, in dread and fear.
Dildilandanto ti tapok a kas iti uleg, kas kadagiti parsua nga agkarkaradap iti rabaw ti daga. Rummuardanto kadagiti rukibda a mabutbuteng; umasidegdanto a mabutbuteng kenka, O Yahweh a Diosmi, ket agbutengdanto gapu kenka.
18 Who is a God like you, forgiving iniquity and passing by the rebellion of the remnant of your people? He does not retain his anger forever, but is one who delights in mercy.
Siasino ti Dios a kas kenka, sika a mangikkat iti basol, sika a saan a mangikankano iti salungasing dagiti nabatbati a tattao a tawidmo? Saan nga agnanayon ti ungetmo gapu ta pagaayatmo nga ipakita kadakami ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo.
19 He will tread under foot our iniquity; you will cast into the depths of the sea all our iniquities.
Maasiankanto manen kadakami; ibaddebaddekmonto dagiti basolmi. Ibellengmonto iti lansad ti baybay dagiti amin a basbasolmi.
20 You will show faithfulness to Jacob, and loving kindness to Abraham, as you have sworn to our ancestors from the days of old.
Impaaymonto ti kinapudno kenni Jacob ken ti kinapudnom iti tulagmo kenni Abraham, a kas inkarim kadagiti kapuonanmi idi un-unana nga al-aldaw.
