Endagaano Enkadde nʼEndagaano Empya
Omufuzi ava mu Besirekemu
5 (A)Kuŋŋaanya amaggye go, ggwe ekibuga ekirina amaggye,
kubanga tulumbiddwa.
Omukulembeze wa Isirayiri
balimukuba omuggo ku luba.
2 (B)“Naye ggwe Besirekemu Efulasa,
newaakubadde ng’oli mutono mu bika bya Yuda,
mu ggwe mwe muliva alibeera
omufuzi wange mu Isirayiri.
Oyo yaliwo okuva edda n’edda,
ng’ensi tennabaawo.”
3 Mukama kyaliva awaayo Isirayiri eri abalabe baayo
okutuusa omukyala alumwa okuzaala lwalizaala omwana,
era baganda be abaasigalawo ne balyoka bakomawo
eri bannaabwe mu Isirayiri.
4 (C)Aliyimirira n’anyweera n’aliisa ekisibo kye
mu maanyi ga Mukama,
mu kitiibwa ky’erinnya lya Mukama Katonda we.
Era abantu be tebalibaako abateganya, kubanga aliba mukulu
okutuusa ku nkomerero y’ensi.
5 (D)Omukulu oyo aliba mirembe gyabwe.
Omwasuli bw’alirumba ensi yaffe
n’abuna ebigo byaffe,
tulimuyimbulira abasumba musanvu,
n’abakulembeze munaana.
6 (E)Abo be balifuga ensi ya Asuli n’ekitala
era ensi ya Nimuloodi nayo bagyonoone.
Naye alitulokola eri Omwasuli
bw’alitulumba mu nsi yaffe
era bw’aliyingira mu nsalo zaffe.
7 (F)Abantu ba Isirayiri abalisigalawo balibeera
wakati mu mawanga agabeetoolodde,
babe ng’omusulo oguva eri Mukama,
ng’obukubakuba obutonnyeredde ku muddo
obutalindirira muntu
oba abaana b’abantu.
8 (G)Ng’empologoma bw’ebeera n’ensolo endala ez’omu nsiko,
abantu abaasigalawo aba Yakobo balibeera mu mawanga mangi agabeetoolodde;
ate era ng’empologoma ento mu bisibo by’endiga,
bw’egenda n’eyitamu n’etaagulataagula
ne wataba n’omu aziwonya.
9 (H)Omukono gwo guliwangula abalabe bo,
ne bonna abakuyigganya balizikirizibwa.
10 (I)“Ku lunaku olwo,” bw’ayogera Mukama,
“Ndizikiriza embalaasi zo
ne nsanyaawo n’amagaali go.
11 (J)Ndizikiriza ebibuga eby’omu nsi yo
era mmenyemenye n’ebigo byo byonna.
12 (K)Obulogo bwo ndibumalawo
era toliddayo kukolima nate.
13 (L)N’ebibumbe bye musinza ndibizikiriza.
Ne nziggyawo n’amayinja ge mwawonga;
temuliddayo nate kuvuunamira bakatonda
be mwekoledde n’emikono gyammwe.
14 (M)Era ndisigula Baasera okuva mu mmwe,
ebibuga byammwe n’embizikiriza.
15 (N)Era ndyesasuza ku mawanga agataŋŋondedde
n’obusungu n’ekiruyi.”
Micah 5
King James Version
5 Now gather thyself in troops, O daughter of troops: he hath laid siege against us: they shall smite the judge of Israel with a rod upon the cheek.
2 But thou, Bethlehem Ephratah, though thou be little among the thousands of Judah, yet out of thee shall he come forth unto me that is to be ruler in Israel; whose goings forth have been from of old, from everlasting.
3 Therefore will he give them up, until the time that she which travaileth hath brought forth: then the remnant of his brethren shall return unto the children of Israel.
4 And he shall stand and feed in the strength of the Lord, in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God; and they shall abide: for now shall he be great unto the ends of the earth.
5 And this man shall be the peace, when the Assyrian shall come into our land: and when he shall tread in our palaces, then shall we raise against him seven shepherds, and eight principal men.
6 And they shall waste the land of Assyria with the sword, and the land of Nimrod in the entrances thereof: thus shall he deliver us from the Assyrian, when he cometh into our land, and when he treadeth within our borders.
7 And the remnant of Jacob shall be in the midst of many people as a dew from the Lord, as the showers upon the grass, that tarrieth not for man, nor waiteth for the sons of men.
8 And the remnant of Jacob shall be among the Gentiles in the midst of many people as a lion among the beasts of the forest, as a young lion among the flocks of sheep: who, if he go through, both treadeth down, and teareth in pieces, and none can deliver.
9 Thine hand shall be lifted up upon thine adversaries, and all thine enemies shall be cut off.
10 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord, that I will cut off thy horses out of the midst of thee, and I will destroy thy chariots:
11 And I will cut off the cities of thy land, and throw down all thy strong holds:
12 And I will cut off witchcrafts out of thine hand; and thou shalt have no more soothsayers:
13 Thy graven images also will I cut off, and thy standing images out of the midst of thee; and thou shalt no more worship the work of thine hands.
14 And I will pluck up thy groves out of the midst of thee: so will I destroy thy cities.
15 And I will execute vengeance in anger and fury upon the heathen, such as they have not heard.
Micah 5
English Standard Version
The Ruler to Be Born in Bethlehem
5 [a] Now muster your troops, O daughter[b] of troops;
siege is laid against us;
with a rod (A)they strike the judge of Israel
on the cheek.
2 [c] (B)But you, O Bethlehem Ephrathah,
who are too little to be among the clans of (C)Judah,
from you shall come forth for me
one who is to be (D)ruler in Israel,
(E)whose coming forth is (F)from of old,
from ancient days.
3 Therefore he shall give them up (G)until the time
when she who is in labor has given birth;
then (H)the rest of his brothers shall return
to the people of Israel.
4 And he shall stand (I)and shepherd his flock (J)in the strength of the Lord,
in the majesty of the name of the Lord his God.
And they shall dwell secure, for now (K)he shall be great
to the ends of the earth.
5 And he shall be (L)their peace.
(M)When the Assyrian comes into our land
and treads in our palaces,
then we will raise against him seven (N)shepherds
and eight princes of men;
6 they shall shepherd the land of Assyria with the sword,
and the land of (O)Nimrod at its entrances;
and he shall deliver us from the Assyrian
(P)when he comes into our land
and treads within our border.
A Remnant Shall Be Delivered
7 Then (Q)the remnant of Jacob shall be
in the midst of many peoples
like dew from the Lord,
like showers on the grass,
which delay not for a man
nor wait for the children of man.
8 And (R)the remnant of Jacob shall be among the nations,
in the midst of many peoples,
like a lion among the beasts of the forest,
like a young lion among the flocks of sheep,
(S)which, when it goes through, treads down
and tears in pieces, and there is none to deliver.
9 Your hand shall (T)be lifted up over your adversaries,
and all your enemies shall be cut off.
10 And (U)in that day, declares the Lord,
(V)I will cut off your horses from among you
and will destroy your chariots;
11 (W)and I will cut off the cities of your land
and throw down all your strongholds;
12 and I will cut off (X)sorceries from your hand,
and (Y)you shall have no more tellers of fortunes;
13 and (Z)I will cut off your carved images
and (AA)your pillars from among you,
(AB)and you shall bow down no more
to the work of your hands;
14 and I will root out your (AC)Asherah images from among you
(AD)and destroy your cities.
15 And in anger and wrath (AE)I will execute vengeance
on the nations that did not obey.
