عَامُوس 3
| اِسْمَعُوا هَذَا ٱلْقَوْلَ ٱلَّذِي تَكَلَّمَ بِهِ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَيْكُمْ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْقَبِيلَةِ ٱلَّتِي أَصْعَدْتُهَا مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ قَائِلًا: | ١ 1 |
People of Israel, listen to this message that the Lord has spoken against you—all of you, whom I brought out of the land of Egypt.
| «إِيَّاكُمْ فَقَطْ عَرَفْتُ مِنْ جَمِيعِ قَبَائِلِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، لِذَلِكَ أُعَاقِبُكُمْ عَلَى جَمِيعِ ذُنُوبِكُمْ». | ٢ 2 |
I chose a special relationship with you alone out of all the families of the earth, and so I will punish you for your wrongdoing.
| هَلْ يَسِيرُ ٱثْنَانِ مَعًا إِنْ لَمْ يَتَوَاعَدَا؟ | ٣ 3 |
Can two people walk together unless they have arranged to meet?
| هَلْ يُزَمْجِرُ ٱلْأَسَدُ فِي ٱلْوَعْرِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ فَرِيسَةٌ؟ هَلْ يُعْطِي شِبْلُ ٱلْأَسَدِ زَئِيرَهُ مِنْ خِدْرِهِ إِنْ لَمْ يَخْطَفْ؟ | ٤ 4 |
Does a lion roar in the forest before finding its prey? Does a young lion growl from its den if it has caught nothing?
| هَلْ يَسْقُطُ عُصْفُورٌ فِي فَخِّ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَلَيْسَ لَهُ شَرَكٌ؟ هَلْ يُرْفَعُ فَخٌّ عَنِ ٱلْأَرْضِ وَهُوَ لَمْ يُمْسِكْ شَيْئًا؟ | ٥ 5 |
Does a bird fall into a trap and get caught unless the spring is set? Does a trap spring shut if there's nothing there to catch?
| أَمْ يُضْرَبُ بِٱلْبُوقِ فِي مَدِينَةٍ وَٱلشَّعْبُ لَا يَرْتَعِدُ؟ هَلْ تَحْدُثُ بَلِيَّةٌ فِي مَدِينَةٍ وَٱلرَّبُّ لَمْ يَصْنَعْهَا؟ | ٦ 6 |
When the trumpet sounds in the city, shouldn't the people be alarmed? When a disaster comes to a city, isn't it the Lord who does it?
| إِنَّ ٱلسَّيِّدَ ٱلرَّبَّ لَا يَصْنَعُ أَمْرًا إِلَّا وَهُوَ يُعْلِنُ سِرَّهُ لِعَبِيدِهِ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءِ. | ٧ 7 |
For the Lord God does nothing without revealing his intentions to his servants the prophets.
| ٱلْأَسَدُ قَدْ زَمْجَرَ، فَمَنْ لَا يَخَافُ؟ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ تَكَلَّمَ، فَمَنْ لَا يَتَنَبَّأُ؟ | ٨ 8 |
The lion has roared—so who isn't scared? The Lord God has spoken—so who can refuse to speak for him?
| 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 |
Announce this to the fortresses of Ashdod and to the fortresses in the land of Egypt: Assemble yourselves on Samaria's mountains and see all the turmoil and oppression happening in the country.
| فَإِنَّهُمْ لَا يَعْرِفُونَ أَنْ يَصْنَعُوا ٱلِٱسْتِقَامَةَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ. أُولَئِكَ ٱلَّذِينَ يَخْزِنُونَ ٱلظُّلْمَ وَٱلِٱغْتِصَابَ فِي قُصُورِهِمْ. | ١٠ 10 |
They don't know how to do what is right, declares the Lord. They have stored up in their fortresses what they've taken by violence and robbery.
| لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ: ضِيقٌ حَتَّى فِي كُلِّ نَاحِيَةٍ مِنَ ٱلْأَرْضِ، فَيُنْزِلَ عَنْكِ عِزَّكِ وَتُنْهَبُ قُصُورُكِ». | ١١ 11 |
As a result, says the Lord, an enemy will surround you, break down your strongholds, and plunder your fortresses.
| 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 |
This is what the Lord says: Just as a shepherd tries to rescue a sheep from a lion's mouth, but only saves a couple of legs or a piece of an ear, so it will be for the people of Israel living in Samaria—all that will be “saved” will be the corner of a couch and a piece of a leg from a bed.
| اِسْمَعُوا وَٱشْهَدُوا علَى بَيتِ يَعْقُوبَ، يَقُولُ ٱلسّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُ ٱلْجُنُودِ. | ١٣ 13 |
Listen! Warn the house of Jacob, declares the Lord God of power.
| إِنِّي يَوْمَ مُعَاقَبَتِي إِسْرَائِيلَ عَلَى ذُنُوبِهِ أُعَاقِبُ مَذَابِحَ بَيْتِ إِيلَ، فَتُقْطَعُ قُرُونُ ٱلْمَذْبَحِ وَتَسْقُطُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ. | ١٤ 14 |
For on that day I will punish Israel for their sins. I will destroy the altars of Bethel: the corners of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground.
| وَأَضْرِبُ بَيْتَ ٱلشِّتَاءِ مَعَ بَيْتِ ٱلصَّيْفِ، فَتَبِيدُ بُيُوتُ ٱلْعَاجِ، وَتَضْمَحِلُّ ٱلْبُيُوتُ ٱلْعَظِيمَةُ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٥ 15 |
I will tear down their winter houses and their summer houses as well, their houses filled with ivory will be ruined—their many houses will be destroyed.
