< Micah 1 >

1 [I am] Micah. I am from [the town of] Moresheth [in Judah]. Yahweh gave me these [messages in] visions about Samaria and Jerusalem during the time when Jotham, [and then] Ahaz, and [then] Hezekiah, were the kings of Judah.
Реч Господња која дође Михеју Моресећанину за времена Јоатама, Ахаза и Језекије, царева Јудиних, што виде за Самарију и за Јерусалим.
2 You people everywhere on the earth, pay attention to this [DOU]! Yahweh our God is accusing you from his holy temple [in heaven].
Чујте, сви народи, слушај, земљо и шта је на њој, и Господ Бог да вам је сведок, Господ из свете цркве своје.
3 He will come down [from heaven] and walk on the tops of the highest mountains.
Јер, гле, Господ излази из места свог, и сићи ће, и ходиће по висинама земаљским.
4 [It will be as though] the mountains will melt under his [feet] like [SIM] wax [melts] in front of a fire, and like [SIM] water [disappears] when it rushes/flows down into a valley.
И горе ће се растопити пред Њим, и долине ће се расести, као восак од огња и као вода што тече низ стрмен.
5 Those things will happen because of the terrible sins [DOU] that the people [MTY] of Israel, [the descendants of] Jacob, have committed. But it was [RHQ] [the people of] Samaria [city who persuaded all the people of] Israel to sin, and it was [RHQ] because the people of Jerusalem [set up altars to worship their gods] that [the other people of] Judah [were persuaded to worship idols on] their hilltops.
Све је то за злочинство Јаковљево и за грехе дома Израиљевог. Које је злочинство Јаковљево? Није ли Самарија? Које су висине Јудине? Није ли Јерусалим?
6 So Yahweh will cause Samaria to become a heap [of rubble/ruins]; [it will be only] a field for planting vineyards. He will cause the stones of its [buildings] to roll down into the valley, and the foundations [of the buildings] will be uncovered.
Зато ћу учинити од Самарије гомилу у пољу да се саде виногради, и побацаћу камење њено у долину и открићу јој темеље.
7 All the idols in Samaria will be smashed, and the gifts [given to prostitutes at the temples of their idols] will be destroyed in a fire. And because people paid prostitutes there, [their enemies will take away those idols and sell them] to get money to pay to prostitutes [in other countries].
И сви резани ликови њени разбиће се, и сви ће се дарови њени сажећи огњем, и све ћу идоле њене потрти, јер од плате курварске накупи, и опет ће бити плата курварска.
8 Because [Samaria will be destroyed], I will weep and wail. I will walk around (barefoot/without any sandals on my feet) and naked. I will howl like a jackal/wolf and screech like an owl,
Зато ћу плакати и ридати; ходићу свучен и го, плакаћу као змајеви и тужићу као сове.
9 because Samaria will be completely destroyed [MET]; nothing can save that city. But the same thing will happen to Judah! [It is as though the enemy army] has [already] reached the city gates of Jerusalem, [the main city where] my people [live].
Јер јој се ране не могу исцелити, дођоше до Јуде, допреше до врата мог народа, до Јерусалима.
10 Do not tell that to [our enemies] in Gath [city in Philistia]! Do not cry, [lest the people there find out what is happening]! [Instead, just] roll in the dirt in Beth-Leaphrah [because the name of that town means ‘house of dust].’
Не јављајте у Гату, не плачите; у Вит-Афри ваљај се по праху.
11 You people who live in Shaphir [town, whose name means ‘beautiful],’ naked and ashamed, you will be taken [to another country]. [You people in] Beth-Ezel [town] should mourn, [because] no one from Zaanan [town, whose name means ‘one who goes out],’ will go out to help you.
Изађи, становнице сафирска, с голом срамотом; становница сананска неће изаћи; жалост вет-езилска неће вам дати станка.
12 [The name of] Maroth [town sounds like ‘bitterness];’ everyone there is anxiously waiting for good things to happen to them, but good things will not happen to them; instead, terrible things are about to happen to them, and it will soon happen at the gates of Jerusalem.
Јер становница маротска тужи за својим добром. Јер сиђе зло од Господа до врата јерусалимских.
13 You people of Lachish [city, whose name sounds like ‘team],’ hitch your horses to pull the chariots [in which you can ride to flee from your enemies]. The Israeli people rebelled against Yahweh, and you (imitated them/did the same evil things that they did), and that caused the people of Jerusalem [IDM] to start sinning, too.
Упрегни брзе коње у кола, становнице лахиска, која си почетак греху кћери сионској, јер се у теби нађоше злочинства Израиљева.
14 [You people of Judah], send a farewell gift to [the people] of Moresheth [town], [because their enemies will soon destroy it]. [The name of the town Aczib means ‘deception],’ and the kings of Israel [will soon find out that the people of that town] will deceive them.
Зато пошаљи дарове Моресету гатском; домови ахсивски превариће цареве Израиљеве.
15 [The name of your town of] Mareshah [means ‘conqueror],’ and Yahweh will [soon] send someone to conquer your town. [It will be necessary for] the great/glorious leaders of Israel to go [and hide in the cave at] Adullam [city].
Још ћу ти довести наследника, становнице мариска; доћи ће до Одолама, славе Израиљеве.
16 [You people of Judah], shave your heads [while you will be mourning], because your children whom you love will [soon] be (exiled/forced to leave you and go to another country).
Начини се ћелава и острижи се за милом децом својом; рашири ћелу своју као орао, јер се воде од тебе у ропство.
