< Micah 7 >

1 Woe is me! for I am as when they have gathered the summer fruits, as the grape gleanings of the vintage: there is no cluster to eat; my soul desireth the firstripe fig.
Mano kaka midhiero omaka malit! Chutho achalo ngʼat ma hulo e puoth mzabibu e ndalo oro. Onge olemb mzabibu mochokore ma dacham, ngʼope mokwongo chiek ma agombo bende onge.
2 The godly man is perished out of the earth, and there is none upright among men: they all lie in wait for blood; they hunt every man his brother with a net.
Joma oluoro Nyasaye bende osetieki morumo e piny; ja-ratiro onge kata mana achiel modongʼ. Ji duto pondo karito mondo ochwer remo, moro ka moro manyo nyawadgi mondo odwodi.
3 Their hands are upon that which is evil to do it diligently; the prince asketh, and the judge [is ready] for a reward; and the great man, he uttereth the mischief of his soul: thus they weave it together.
Lweteni duto ariyo olony e timo richo. Jatelo dwaro mich githuon, jangʼad bura kawo asoya, jogi maroteke chuno ji gi timo gigegi magidwaro, giduto kaachiel giwinjore e wachni.
4 The best of them is as a brier: the most upright is [worse] than a thorn hedge: the day of thy watchmen, even thy visitation, is come; now shall be their perplexity.
Joma nenore ni longʼo kuomgi; chalo gi kuth oriangʼ. Joma ikwano ni odimbore mogik eigi richo moloyo kuth chiedo. Odiechieng jorito mau osechopo, odiechiengʼ ma Nyasaye limoue. Ma e kinde ma ikeyoue.
5 Trust ye not in a friend, put ye not confidence in a guide: keep the doors of thy mouth from her that lieth in thy bosom.
Kik igen kuom ngʼama odak e bathi kata osiepni kik iyiego. Wuo kitangʼ kata gi chiegi ma ugenorugo.
6 For the son dishonoureth the father, the daughter riseth up against her mother, the daughter in law against her mother in law; a man’s enemies are the men of his own house.
Nikech wuowi koro ochayo wuon mare, kendo nyako noked kod min mare; chi wuowi bende noked gi damare, wasik ngʼato nobed joode owuon.
7 But as for me, I will look unto the LORD; I will wait for the God of my salvation: my God will hear me.
Anto amanyo Jehova Nyasaye gi wangʼa ka an kod geno, arito Nyasaye ma Jawarna; kendo Nyasacha biro winja.
8 Rejoice not against me, O mine enemy: when I fall, I shall arise; when I sit in darkness, the LORD shall be a light unto me.
In jasika kik inyiera kata obedoni asepodho to abiro chungʼ kendo! Kata obedo ni abet e mudho to Jehova Nyasaye biro doko lerna.
9 I will bear the indignation of the LORD, because I have sinned against him; until he plead my cause, and execute judgment for me: he will bring me forth to the light, [and] I shall behold his righteousness.
Nikech aseketho e nyim Jehova Nyasaye ayie tingʼo mirimbe, nyaka chop oket kwayona kare, mi oyud ni aonge ketho. Obiro kela e ler mi ane adierane.
10 Then mine enemy shall see it, and shame shall cover her; which said unto me, Where is the LORD thy God? Mine eyes shall behold her; now shall she be trodden down as the mire of the streets.
Eka wasika none gima otimore mi ginipongʼ gi wichkuot, gin mane giwacho niya, “Ere Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachino?” Wangʼa none koselogi; kata mana sani ibiro nyon-gi piny, mana kaka chwodho inyono e yore manie dala.
11 A day for building thy walls! in that day shall the decree be far removed.
Odiechiengʼ migeroe ohinga mare biro chopo, en odiechiengʼ manoyarie tongʼni.
12 In that day shall they come unto thee, from Assyria and the cities of Egypt, and from Egypt even to the River, and from sea to sea, and [from] mountain to mountain.
E odiechiengʼno ji nobi iri koa Asuria kod mier madongo mag Misri, koa chakre Misri nyaka Yufrate koa bath nam koni nyaka bath nam komachielo, kendo koa got koni nyaka got komachielo.
13 Yet shall the land be desolate because of them that dwell therein, for the fruit of their doings.
Piny biro dongʼ nono, nikech timbe maricho mag ji modak e iye.
14 Feed thy people with thy rod, the flock of thine heritage, which dwell solitarily, in the forest in the midst of Carmel: let them feed in Bashan and Gilead, as in the days of old.
Kwa jogi gi ludh odunga mari, kweth mag girkeni magi, modak kendgi ei bungu, e dier puothe momewo. Wegi gichiem Bashan gi Gilead mana kaka ndalo machon.
15 As in the days of thy coming forth out of the land of Egypt will I shew unto him marvelous things.
“Mana kaka ndalo mane ua Misri, abiro nyisogi timbena madongo miwuoro.”
16 The nations shall see and be ashamed of all their might: they shall lay their hand upon their mouth, their ears shall be deaf.
Ogendini biro nenogi mi wigi kuodi ka osemagi tekogi duto. Giniket lwetgi e dhogi kendo itgi biro dino.
17 They shall lick the dust like a serpent; like crawling things of the earth they shall come trembling out of their close places: they shall come with fear unto the LORD our God, and shall be afraid because of thee.
Gibiro nangʼo lowo ka thuol, ka le malak gi bund-igi e buru. Gibiro wuok ka gia e kuondegi mag pondo ka gitetni. Gibiro lokore gidok ir Jehova Nyasaye, ma Nyasachwa, ka giluor kendo un bende gibiro luorou.
18 Who is a God like unto thee, that pardoneth iniquity, and passeth by the transgression of the remnant of his heritage? he retaineth not his anger for ever, because he delighteth in mercy.
En Nyasaye mane machalo kodi ma ngʼwono ne joge modongʼ, kendo weyonegi richogi? Iyi ok wangʼ nyaka chiengʼ, to imor mar kecho jogi.
19 He will turn again and have compassion upon us; he will tread our iniquities under foot: and thou wilt cast all their sins into the depths of the sea.
Ibiro kechowa kendo, ibiro nyono richowa e tiendi, kendo idir kethruokwa duto e bwo nam.
20 Thou wilt perform the truth to Jacob, [and] the mercy to Abraham, which thou hast sworn unto our fathers from the days of old.
Ibiro bedo ja-adiera ne Jakobo kendo ibiro kecho Ibrahim, kaka ne isingori kikwongʼori ne kwerewa, e ndalo machon.
