Miqueas 2
1¡Ay de los que maquinan iniquidad y en sus lechos preparan el mal! A la luz del día lo ponen por obra, porque tienen el poder en su mano. Woe to you who devise useless things and who work evil in your beds. In the morning light, they undertake it, because their hand is against God.2Codician campos y los roban, también casas, y se apoderan de ellas; oprimen al dueño y su casa, al propietario y su heredad. And they have desired fields and have taken them by violence, and they have stolen houses. And they have made false accusations against a man and his house, a man and his inheritance.3Por eso, dice Yahvé: He aquí que tengo preparado contra esta raza un mal, del cual no podréis librar vuestras cervices; y no andaréis ya erguidos, porque será tiempo calamitoso. For this reason, thus says the Lord: Behold, I devise an evil against this family, from which you will not steal away your necks. And you will not walk in arrogance, because this is a most wicked time.4En aquel día se dirá sobre vosotros un proverbio, y se entonará una lamentación. Dirán: “Somos completamente asolados; (Dios) entrega a otros la herencia de mi pueblo. ¡Cómo me la quita a mí y reparte nuestros campos a los infieles!” In that day, a parable will be taken up about you, and a song will be sung with sweetness, saying: “We have been devastated by depopulation.” The fate of my people has been altered. How can he withdraw from me, when he might be turned back, he who might tear apart our country?5Por eso ya no tendrás quien echando la cuerda (reparta) posesiones en la congregación de Yahvé. Because of this, there will be for you no casting of the cord of fate in the assembly of the Lord.6“¡No profeticéis!”, así dicen ellos. Pero si no se les profetiza, no se apartará (de ellos) el oprobio. Do not speak by saying, “It will not drop on these ones; shame will not embrace them.”7Dice la casa de Jacob: “¿Se ha disminuido el espíritu de Yahvé? ¿Son estas sus obras?” ¿Acaso mis palabras no son buenas para los que andan por el recto camino? The house of Jacob says, “Has the Spirit of the Lord been weakened, or are such things his thoughts?” Are not my words good for him who walks uprightly?8Hace tiempo que el pueblo mío se ha levantado (contra Mí) como enemigo; después de la ropa robáis el manto; hacéis la guerra a los que van pasando confiados. But, to the contrary, my people have risen up in opposition. You have lifted the cover from the undergarment, and those who passed by harmlessly, you have converted into war.9A las mujeres de mi pueblo las arrojáis de sus queridas casas, y a sus pequeñuelos les quitáis mi loor para siempre. You have evicted the women among my people from their delicate houses. You have taken my praise forever from their little ones.10Levantaos y marchad, pues no es este el lugar de vuestro descanso; porque es inmundo, será devastado con terrible tormento. Rise and depart, for there is no relief for you here. Because of its uncleanness, it will be corrupted with a most wicked decay.11Si uno anda tras el viento y tras la mentira, (diciendo): “Yo te profetizo vino y bebida embriagante”, este es el profeta de este pueblo. I wish that I were not a man who has breath, and that I rather spoke a lie. I will drop it down to you in wine and in drunkenness. And it will be this people on whom it will rain down.12Yo te juntaré todo entero, oh Jacob; recogeré los restos de Israel, los pondré juntos como ovejas en un aprisco, cual hato en medio del pastizal, y habrá un ruido grande por (la multitud) de gente. I will gather together in a congregation all of you, Jacob. I will lead together as one, the remnant of Israel. I will set them together like a flock in the fold, like a sheep in the midst of the sheep pen. They will cause a tumult before the multitude of men.13Va delante de ellos aquel que les abre camino; irrumpen y fuerzan la puerta, y salen por ella; y delante de ellos marcha su rey, y Yahvé a su frente. For he will ascend, opening the way before them. They will separate, and they will cross the gate and enter through it. And their king will pass by, before their very eyes, and the Lord will be at their head.
