< عَامُوس 3 >
اِسْمَعُوا هَذَا ٱلْقَوْلَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْقَبِيلَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَصْعَدْتُهَا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
Listen to the word which the Lord has spoken about you, sons of Israel, concerning the whole family that I led out of the land of Egypt, saying:
«إِيَّاكُمْ فَقَطْ عَرَفْتُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِذَلِكَ أُعَاقِبُكُمْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ذُنُوبِكُمْ». | ٢ 2 |
I have known only you in such a way, out of all the families of the earth. For this reason, I will visit upon you all your iniquities.
هَلْ يَسِيرُ ٱثْنَانِ مَعًا إِنْ لَمْ يَتَوَاعَدَا؟ | ٣ 3 |
Will two walk together, unless they have agreed to do so?
هَلْ يُزَمْجِرُ ٱلْأَسَدُ فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ فَرِيسَةٌ؟ هَلْ يُعْطِي شِبْلُ ٱلْأَسَدِ زَئِيرَهُ مِنْ خِدْرِهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَخْطَفْ؟ | ٤ 4 |
Will a lion roar in the forest, unless he has prey? Will the lion’s young cry out from his den, unless he has taken something?
هَلْ يَسْقُطُ عُصْفُورٌ فِي فَخِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ شَرَكٌ؟ هَلْ يُرْفَعُ فَخٌّ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ لَمْ يُمْسِكْ شَيْئًا؟ | ٥ 5 |
Will a bird fall into a snare on the ground, if there is no bird-catcher? Will a snare be taken away from the ground, before it has caught something?
أَمْ يُضْرَبُ بِٱلْبُوقِ فِي مَدِينَةٍ وَٱلشَّعْبُ لَا يَرْتَعِدُ؟ هَلْ تَحْدُثُ بَلِيَّةٌ فِي مَدِينَةٍ وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَصْنَعْهَا؟ | ٦ 6 |
Will the trumpet sound in a city, and the people not become frightened? Will there be disaster in a city, which the Lord has not done?
إِنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ ٱلرَّبَّ لَا يَصْنَعُ أَمْرًا إِلَّا وَهُوَ يُعْلِنُ سِرَّهُ لِعَبِيدِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ. | ٧ 7 |
For the Lord God does not fulfill his word, unless he has revealed his secret to his servants the prophets.
ٱلْأَسَدُ قَدْ زَمْجَرَ، فَمَنْ لَا يَخَافُ؟ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ، فَمَنْ لَا يَتَنَبَّأُ؟ | ٨ 8 |
The lion will roar, who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken, who will not prophesy?
نَادُوا عَلَى ٱلْقُصُورِ فِي أَشْدُودَ، وَعَلَى ٱلْقُصُورِ فِي أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَقُولُوا: «ٱجْتَمِعُوا عَلَى جِبَالِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ وَٱنْظُرُوا شَغْبًا عَظِيمًا فِي وَسَطِهَا وَمَظَالِمَ فِي دَاخِلِهَا. | ٩ 9 |
Let it be heard in the buildings of Ashdod and in the buildings of the land of Egypt, and say: Gather together across the mountains of Samaria, and see the many absurdities in its midst, and those who are suffering false accusations in its inner most places.
فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوا ٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أُولَئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخْزِنُونَ ٱلظُّلْمَ وَٱلِٱغْتِصَابَ فِي قُصُورِهِمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
And they do not know how to make it right, says the Lord, storing up iniquity and plunder in their buildings.
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ضِيقٌ حَتَّى فِي كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَيُنْزِلَ عَنْكِ عِزَّكِ وَتُنْهَبُ قُصُورُكِ». | ١١ 11 |
Because of these things, thus says the Lord God: The land will be encircled and squeezed together. And your strength will be drawn away from you, and your buildings will be torn apart.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «كَمَا يَنْزِعُ ٱلرَّاعِي مِنْ فَمِ ٱلْأَسَدِ كُرَاعَيْنِ أَوْ قِطْعَةَ أُذُنٍ، هَكَذَا يُنْتَزَعُ بَنُو إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلْجَالِسُونَ في ٱلسَّامِرَةِ في زَاوِيَةِ ٱلسَّرِيرِ وَعَلَى دِمَقْسِ ٱلْفِرَاشِ! | ١٢ 12 |
Thus says the Lord: Just as if a shepherd had rescued two legs from the mouth of a lion, or the tip of an ear, so also will the sons of Israel be rescued, who dwell in the sick bed of Samaria, and in the cot of Damascus.
اِسْمَعُوا وَٱشْهَدُوا علَى بَيتِ يَعْقُوبَ، يَقُولُ ٱلسّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Listen and give testimony in the house of Jacob, says the Lord God of hosts:
إِنِّي يَوْمَ مُعَاقَبَتِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى ذُنُوبِهِ أُعَاقِبُ مَذَابِحَ بَيْتِ إِيلَ، فَتُقْطَعُ قُرُونُ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَتَسْقُطُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
that in the day, when I will begin to visit the betrayals of Israel, I will visit upon him and upon the altars of Bethel. And the horns of the altars will be cut off and will fall to the ground.
وَأَضْرِبُ بَيْتَ ٱلشِّتَاءِ مَعَ بَيْتِ ٱلصَّيْفِ، فَتَبِيدُ بُيُوتُ ٱلْعَاجِ، وَتَضْمَحِلُّ ٱلْبُيُوتُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٥ 15 |
And I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory will perish, and many buildings will be torn apart, says the Lord.
