ʼΕγένοντο λογιζόμενοι κόπους καὶ ἐργαζόμενοι κακὰ ἐν ταῖς κοίταῖς αὐτῶν, καὶ ἄμα τῇ ἡμέρᾳ συνετέλουν αὐτά, διότι οὐκ ἥραν πρὸς τὸν θεὸν τὰς χεῖρας αὐτῶν·

καὶ ἐπεθύμουν ἀγρούς, καὶ διήρπαζον ὀρφανούς, καὶ οἴκους κατεδυνάστευον, καὶ διήρπαζον ἄνδρα καὶ τὸν οἶκον αὐτοῦ, καὶ ἄνδρα καὶ τὴν κληρονομίαν αὐτοῦ.

διὰ τοῦτο λέγει Κύριος Ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ λογίζομαι ἐπὶ τὴν φυλὴν ταύτην κακά, ἐξ ὦν οὐ μὴ ἄρητε τοὺς τραχήλους ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐ μὴ πορευθῆτε ὄρθοὶ ἐξαίφνης, ὅτι καιρὸς πονηρός ἐστιν.

Ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ἐκείνῃ λημφθήσεται ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς παραβολή, καὶ θρηνηθήσεται θρῆνος ἐν μέλει λέγων αλαιπωρίᾳ ἐταλαιπωρήσαμεν· μερὶς λαοῦ μου κατεμετρήθη ἐν σχοινίῳ, καὶ οὐκ ἦν ὁ κωλύσων αὐτὸν τοῦ ἀποστρέψαι· οἱ ἀγροὶ ¹² ἡμῶν διεμερίσθησαν.

διὰ τοῦτο οὐκ ἔσται σοι βάλλων σχοινίον ἐν ³ κλήρῳ ἐν ἐκκλησίᾳ Κυρίου.

μὴ κλαίετε δάκρυσιν, μηδέ δακρυέτωσαν ἐπὶ τούτοις· οὐ γὰρ ἀπώσεται ὀνείδη

ὁ λέγων Οἶκος Ἰακὼβ παρώργισεν πνεῦμα Κυρίου. εἰ ταῦτα τὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα αὐτοῦ ἐστίν; οὐχ οἱ λόγοι αὐτοῦ εἰσὶν καλοὶ μετʼ αὐτοῦ, καὶ ὀρθοὶ πεπόρευνται;

καὶ ἔμπροσθεν ὁ λαός μου εἰς ἔχθραν ἀντέστη· κατέναντι τῆς εἰρήνης αὐτοῦ τὴν δορὰν αὐτοῦ ἐξέδειραν, τοῦ ἀφελέσθαι ἐλπίδα συντριμμὸν πολέμου.

ἡγούμενοι λαοῦ μου ἀποριφήσονται ἐκ τῶν οἰκιῶν τρυφῆς αὐτῶν, διὰ τὰ πονηρὰ ἐπιτηδεύματα αὐτῶν ἐξώσθησαν. ἐγγίσατε ὄρεσιν αἰωνίοις·

ἀνάστηθι καὶ πορεύου, ὅτι οὐκ ἔστιν σοι αὕτη ἀνάπαυσις ἕνεκεν ἀκαθαρσίας. διεφθάρητε φθόρῳ,

κατεδιώχθητε οὐδενὸς διώκοντος· πνεῦμα ἔστησεν ψεῦδος, ἐστάλαξέν σοι εἰς οἶνον καὶ μέθυσμα. καὶ ἔσται ἐκ τῆς σταγόνος τοῦ λαοῦ τούτου

συναγόμενος συναχθήσεται Ἰακὼβ σὺν πᾶσιν· ἐκδεχόμενος ἐκδέξομαι τοὺς καταλοίπους τοῦ Ἰσραήλ, ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ θήσομαι τὴν ἀποστροφὴν αὐτοῦ· ὡς πρόβατα ἐν θλίψει, ὡς ποίμνιον ἐν μέσῳ κοίτης αὐτῶν ἐξαλοῦνται ἐξ ἀνθρώπων·

διὰ τῆς διακοπῆς πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν διέκοψαν, καὶ διῆλθον πύλην καὶ ἐξῆλθον δι᾿ αὐτῆς, καὶ ἐξῆλθεν ὁ βασιλεὺς αὐτῶν πρὸ προσώπου αὐτῶν, ὁ δὲ κύριος ἡγήσεται αὐτῶν.

Μιχαίας (Greek) (Septuaginta. The Old Testament in Greek According to the Septuagint. Volume 3: Hosea-4 Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Enoch, The Odes. Swete, Henry Barclay, editor. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1905)

Micah Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 2 focus

Woe to those who devise iniquity And work evil on their beds! When the morning is light, they practice it, Because it is in the power of their hand.

They covet fields, and seize them; And houses, and take them away: And they oppress a man and his house, Even a man and his heritage.

Therefore thus says Yahweh: Behold, I am planning against these people a disaster, From which you will not remove your necks, Neither will you walk haughtily; For it is an evil time.

In that day they will take up a parable against you, And lament with a doleful lamentation, saying, We are utterly ruined! My people’s possession is divided up. Indeed he takes it from me and assigns our fields to traitors!

Therefore you will have no one who divides the land by lot in the assembly of Yahweh.

Don’t you prophesy! They prophesy. Don’t prophesy about these things. Disgrace won’t overtake us.

Shall it be said, O house of Jacob: Is the Spirit of Yahweh angry? Are these his doings? Don’t my words do good to him who walks blamelessly?

But lately my people have risen up as an enemy. You strip the robe and clothing from those who pass by without a care, returning from battle.

You drive the women of my people out from their pleasant houses; From their young children you take away my blessing forever.

Arise, and depart! For this is not your resting place, Because of uncleanness that destroys, Even with a grievous destruction.

If a man walking in a spirit of falsehood lies: I will prophesy to you of wine and of strong drink; He would be the prophet of this people.

I will surely assemble, Jacob, all of you; I will surely gather the remnant of Israel; I will put them together as the sheep of Bozrah, As a flock in the midst of their pasture; They will throng with people.

He who breaks open the way goes up before them. They break through the gate, and go out. And their king passes on before them, With Yahweh at their head.
