Micah 2
Maori Bible
2 Aue, te mate mo te hunga e whakaaro na ki te he, e mahi na i te kino i runga i o ratou moenga! takiri rawa ake te ata kua mahia e ratou, no te mea kei roto i te kaha o to ratou ringa.
2 E hiahia ana ratou ki nga mara, tangohia ake; ki nga whare hoki riro tonu i a ratou: e whakatupuria kinotia ana e ratou tetahi tangata me tona whare, te tangata rawa nei me tona wahi tupu.
3 Mo reira ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Nana, ka whakaaroa e ahau he kino mo tenei hapu, e kore ai e whakawateatia e koutou o koutou kaki i reira, e kore ano koutou e haere whakapehapeha; he kino hoki tenei wa.
4 I taua ra ka ara i a ratou tetahi whakatauki mo koutou, ka tangi hoki i tetahi rangi mamae nui, a ka mea, Kua pahuatia rawatia tatou; kua puta ke i a ia te wahi o taku iwi. Aue, tana wehenga atu i ahau! wehea ana e ia a tatou mara ma te hunga wha kakeke.
5 Mo reira kahore he tangata mau hei maka i te taura a te rota i roto i te whakaminenga a Ihowa.
6 Kaua koutou e poropiti: ko ta ratou poropiti tenei. E kore ratou e poropiti ki ena: e kore nga taunu e haere atu.
7 E kiia ianei, e te whare o Hakopa, Kua kuiti te wairua o Ihowa? ko ana mahi ianei enei? He teka ianei he mahi pai ta aku kupu ki te tangata e tika ana te haere?
8 Otiia no enei ra nei ano ka whakatika ake taku iwi ano he hoariri: e tihorea atu ana e koutou te koroka i te kakahu o te hunga e haere kore wehi noa atu ana ano he tangata e ngakaukore ana ki te whawhai.
9 Kua oti nga wahine o taku iwi te pei e koutou i roto i o ratou whare ahuareka; kua tangohia e koutou toku kororia i a ratou tamariki nonohi a ake ake.
10 Whakatika, haere; ehara hoki tenei i to koutou okiokinga; he mea hoki mo te poke e whakangaro ana, e whakangaro kino rawa ana.
11 Ki te korero teka tetahi tangata e haere ana i te hau, i te teka, ki te mea, Ka poropiti ahau ki a koe mo te waina, mo te wai kaha; ko ia rawa ano hei poropiti mo tenei iwi.
12 He pono ka kohikohi ahau i a koe katoa, e Hakopa; he pono ka whakawhaititia e ahau nga morehu o Iharaira; ka huihuia ratou e ahau, ka peratia me nga hipi o Potora: ka rite ki te kahui i waenganui o to ratou taiepa, ka nui to ratou nge i te tini hoki o te tangata.
13 Kua tae ake te kaiwahi i to ratou aroaro: kua pakaru mai ratou ki waho, kua tika i roto i te kuwaha, kua puta atu ma reira: kua haere atu to ratou kingi i mua i a ratou, a Ihowa i to ratou upoko.

Human Plans and God’s Plans
2 Woe to those who plan iniquity,
to those who plot evil(A) on their beds!(B)
At morning’s light they carry it out
because it is in their power to do it.
2 They covet fields(C) and seize them,(D)
and houses, and take them.
They defraud(E) people of their homes,
they rob them of their inheritance.(F)
3 Therefore, the Lord says:
“I am planning disaster(G) against this people,
from which you cannot save yourselves.
You will no longer walk proudly,(H)
for it will be a time of calamity.
4 In that day people will ridicule you;
they will taunt you with this mournful song:
‘We are utterly ruined;(I)
my people’s possession is divided up.(J)
He takes it from me!
He assigns our fields to traitors.’”
False Prophets
6 “Do not prophesy,” their prophets say.
“Do not prophesy about these things;
disgrace(M) will not overtake us.(N)”
7 You descendants of Jacob, should it be said,
“Does the Lord become[a] impatient?
Does he do such things?”
“Do not my words do good(O)
to the one whose ways are upright?(P)
8 Lately my people have risen up
like an enemy.
You strip off the rich robe
from those who pass by without a care,
like men returning from battle.
9 You drive the women of my people
from their pleasant homes.(Q)
You take away my blessing
from their children forever.
10 Get up, go away!
For this is not your resting place,(R)
because it is defiled,(S)
it is ruined, beyond all remedy.
11 If a liar and deceiver(T) comes and says,
‘I will prophesy for you plenty of wine and beer,’(U)
that would be just the prophet for this people!(V)
Deliverance Promised
12 “I will surely gather all of you, Jacob;
I will surely bring together the remnant(W) of Israel.
I will bring them together like sheep in a pen,
like a flock in its pasture;
the place will throng with people.(X)
13 The One who breaks open the way will go up before(Y) them;
they will break through the gate(Z) and go out.
Their King will pass through before them,
the Lord at their head.”
