< عَامُوس 7 >

هَكَذَا أَرَانِي ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَإِذَا هُوَ يَصْنَعُ جَرَادًا فِي أَوَّلِ طُلُوعِ خِلْفِ ٱلْعُشْبِ. وَإِذَا خِلْفُ عُشْبٍ بَعْدَ جِزَازِ ٱلْمَلِكِ. ١ 1
The Lord Jehovah showed me this vision: Behold, he formed locusts In the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; Behold, it was the latter growth after the king's mowing.
وَحَدَثَ لَمَّا فَرَغَ مِنْ أَكْلِ عُشْبِ ٱلْأَرْضِ أَنِّي قُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٱصْفَحْ! كَيْفَ يَقُومُ يَعْقُوبُ؟ فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ!». ٢ 2
And when they had devoured the grass of the land, Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob stand? For he is small!
فَنَدِمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى هَذَا. «لَا يَكُونُ» قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٣ 3
Jehovah repented of this; It shall not be, said Jehovah.
هَكَذَا أَرَانِي ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، وَإِذَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ قَدْ دَعَا لِلْمُحَاكَمَةِ بِٱلنَّارِ، فَأَكَلَتِ ٱلْغَمْرَ ٱلْعَظِيمَ وَأَكَلَتِ ٱلْحَقْلَ. ٤ 4
The Lord Jehovah also showed me this vision: Behold, the Lord Jehovah commanded the fire to execute judgment; And it devoured the great deep, And it devoured the fields.
فَقُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، كُفَّ! كَيْفَ يَقُومُ يَعْقُوبُ؟ فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ!». ٥ 5
Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, desist, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob stand? For he is small!
فَنَدِمَ ٱلرَّبُّ عَلَى هَذَا.«فَهُوَ أَيْضًا لَا يَكُونُ» قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ. ٦ 6
Jehovah repented of this; This also shall not be, said the Lord Jehovah.
هَكَذَا أَرَانِي وَإِذَا ٱلرَّبُّ وَاقِفٌ عَلَى حَائِطٍ قَائِمٍ وَفِي يَدِهِ زِيجٌ. ٧ 7
He also showed me this vision: Behold, the Lord stood upon a wall, built with a plumb-line, And in his hand was a plumb-line;
فَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: «مَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ يَا عَامُوسُ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «زِيجًا». فَقَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ: «هَأَنَذَا وَاضِعٌ زِيجًا فِي وَسَطِ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. لَا أَعُودُ أَصْفَحُ لَهُ بَعْدُ. ٨ 8
And Jehovah said to me, What seest thou, Amos? And I said, A plumb-line. And the Lord said, Behold I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not spare them any more.
فَتُقْفِرُ مُرْتَفَعَاتُ إِسْحَاقَ وَتَخْرَبُ مَقَادِسُ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَقُومُ عَلَى بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ». ٩ 9
The high places of Isaac shall be desolate, And the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste, And I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
فَأَرْسَلَ أَمَصْيَا كَاهِنُ بَيْتِ إِيلَ إِلَى يَرُبْعَامَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلًا: «قَدْ فَتَنَ عَلَيْكَ عَامُوسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ. لَا تَقْدِرُ ٱلْأَرْضُ أَنْ تُطِيقَ كُلَّ أَقْوَالِهِ. ١٠ 10
Then sent Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, To Jeroboam, the king of Israel, and said: Amos conspireth against thee in the midst of the house of Israel; The land is not able to bear all his words.
لِأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا قَالَ عَامُوسُ: يَمُوتُ يَرُبْعَامُ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَيُسْبَى إِسْرَائِيلُ عَنْ أَرْضِهِ». ١١ 11
For thus hath Amos said: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, And Israel shall surely be led captive from their own land.
فَقَالَ أَمَصْيَا لِعَامُوسَ: «أَيُّهَا ٱلرَّائِي، ٱذْهَبِ ٱهْرُبْ إِلَى أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا وَكُلْ هُنَاكَ خُبْزًا وَهُنَاكَ تَنَبَّأْ. ١٢ 12
And Amaziah said to Amos, Go, thou seer! flee into the land of Judah! There eat thy bread, and there prophesy!
وَأَمَّا بَيْتُ إِيلَ فَلَا تَعُدْ تَتَنَبَّأُ فِيهَا بَعْدُ، لِأَنَّهَا مَقْدِسُ ٱلْمَلِكِ وَبَيْتُ ٱلْمُلْكِ». ١٣ 13
But prophesy no more at Bethel, For it is the king's sanctuary, And it is the king's abode.
فَأَجَابَ عَامُوسُ وَقَالَ لِأَمَصْيَا: «لَسْتُ أَنَا نَبِيًّا وَلَا أَنَا ٱبْنُ نَبِيٍّ، بَلْ أَنَا رَاعٍ وَجَانِي جُمَّيْزٍ. ١٤ 14
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah: I was no prophet, nor the son of a prophet; I was a shepherd, and a gatherer of sycamore fruit.
فَأَخَذَنِي ٱلرَّبُّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ ٱلضَّأْنِ وَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱذْهَبْ تَنَبَّأْ لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. ١٥ 15
And Jehovah took me from the flock; And Jehovah said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel!
«فَٱلْآنَ ٱسْمَعْ قَوْلَ ٱلرَّبِّ: أَنْتَ تَقُولُ: لَا تَتَنَبَّأْ عَلَى إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلَا تَتَكَلَّمْ عَلَى بَيْتِ إِسْحَاقَ. ١٦ 16
Now, therefore, hear the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, And speak no word against the house of Isaac!
لِذَلِكَ هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: ٱمْرَأَتُكَ تَزْنِي فِي ٱلْمَدِينَةِ، وَبَنُوكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ يَسْقُطُونَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ، وَأَرْضُكَ تُقْسَمُ بِٱلْحَبْلِ، وَأَنْتَ تَمُوتُ فِي أَرْضٍ نَجِسَةٍ، وَإِسْرَائِيلُ يُسْبَى سَبْيًا عَنْ أَرْضِهِ». ١٧ 17
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: “Thy wife shall be put to shame in the city, And thy sons and daughters shall fall by the sword; Thy land shall be divided by the line, And thou shalt die in a polluted land, And Israel shall surely be led captive from his own land.”
