< عامُوس 2 >

هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ مَعَاصِي مُوآبَ الثَّلاثِ وَالأَرْبَعِ لَنْ أَرُدَّ عَنْهُمْ سَخَطِي، لأَنَّ مُوآبَ أَحْرَقَ عِظَامَ مَلِكِ أَدُومَ حَتَّى صَارَتْ كِلْساً. ١ 1
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime;
لِهَذَا أُرْسِلُ نَاراً عَلَى مُوآبَ فَتَلْتَهِمُ حُصُونَ قَرْيُوتَ، فَيَمُوتُ مُوآبُ فِي وَسَطِ الضَّجِيجِ وَصَيْحَاتِ الْمُحَارِبِينَ وَدَوِيِّ الأَبْوَاقِ. ٢ 2
but I will send a fire on Moab, and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth; and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet;
وَأَسْتَأْصِلُ الْحَاكِمَ مِنْ بَيْنِ الْمُوآبِيِّينَ، وَأَقْضِي عَلَى كُلِّ رُؤَسَائِهِمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. ٣ 3
and I will cut off the judge from their midst, and will kill all its officials with him," says the LORD.
هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ مَعَاصِي يَهُوذَا الثَّلاثِ وَالأَرْبَعِ لَنْ أَرُدَّ عَنْهُمْ سَخَطِي، لأَنَّهُمْ رَفَضُوا شَرِيعَةَ الرَّبِّ وَلَمْ يُطِيعُوا فَرَائِضَهُ، فَأَضَلَّتْهُمْ أَكَاذِيبُهُمُ الَّتِي غَوَى وَرَاءَهَا آبَاؤُهُمْ. ٤ 4
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have rejected the LORD's law, and have not kept his statutes. Their false idols which they made, after which their fathers walked, have led them astray.
لِهَذَا أُرْسِلُ نَاراً عَلَى يَهُوذَا فَتَلْتَهِمُ حُصُونَ أُورُشَلِيمَ. ٥ 5
But I will send a fire on Judah, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem."
هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ: مِنْ أَجْلِ مَعَاصِي إِسْرَائِيلَ الثَّلاثِ وَالأَرْبَعِ لَنْ أَرُدَّ عَنْهُمْ سَخَطِي، لأَنَّهُمْ بَاعُوا الصِّدِّيقَ لِقَاءَ الْفِضَّةِ، وَالْبَائِسَ مُقَابِلَ نَعْلَيْنِ. ٦ 6
Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes;
الَّذِينَ يَسْحَقُونَ رَأْسَ الْمِسْكِينِ فِي التُّرَابِ، وَيَجُورُونَ عَلَى الْبَائِسِينَ، وَيُعَاشِرُ الرَّجُلُ وَابْنُهُ امْرَأَةً وَاحِدَةً، فَيَتَدَنَّسُ بِذَلِكَ اسْمِي الْمُقَدَّسُ. ٧ 7
They trample on the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and deny justice to the oppressed; and a man and his father use the same maiden, to profane my holy name;
يَرْقُدُونَ إِلَى جُوَارِ الْمَذْبَحِ فَوْقَ ثِيَابٍ مَرْهُونَةٍ، وَيَشْرَبُونَ فِي هَيْكَلِ إِلَهِهِمْ خَمْرَ الْمُغَرَّمِينَ. ٨ 8
and they lay themselves down beside every altar on clothes taken in pledge; and in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
مَعَ أَنِّي أَهْلَكْتُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمِ الأَمُورِيِّينَ ذَوِي الْقَامَاتِ الطَّوِيلَةِ كَأَشْجَارِ الأَرْزِ، الأَقْوِيَاءَ كَأَشْجَارِ الْبَلُّوطِ، أَتْلَفْتُ أَثْمَارَهُمْ عَلَى أَغْصَانِهَا، وَجُذُورَ أَشْجَارِهِمْ مِنْ تَحْتِ الأَرْضِ. ٩ 9
Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
كَمَا أَخْرَجْتُكُمْ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ وَقُدْتُ طَرِيقَكُمْ عَبْرَ الصَّحْرَاءِ طَوَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً لِتَرِثُوا أَرْضَ الأَمُورِيِّينَ. ١٠ 10
Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
وَأَقَمْتُ مِنْ بَيْنِ أَبْنَائِكُمْ أَنْبِيَاءَ وَمِنْ فِتْيَانِكُمْ نَذِيرِينَ. أَلَيْسَ هَذَا صَحِيحاً يَا أَبْنَاءَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ؟ ١١ 11
I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Isn't this true, you children of Israel?" says the LORD.
وَلَكِنَّكُمْ سَقَيْتُمُ النَّذِيرِينَ خَمْراً، وَأَمَرْتُمُ الأَنْبِيَاءَ قَائِلِينَ: لَا تَتَنَبَّأُوا. ١٢ 12
"But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, 'Do not prophesy.'
هَأَنَذَا أَسْحَقُكُمْ فِي مَوَاضِعِكُمْ فَتَئِنُّونَ كَمَا تَئِنُّ عَرَبَةٌ تَحْتَ وَطْأَةِ ثِقْلِ أَكْدَاسِهَا. ١٣ 13
Look, I will crush you in your place, as a cart crushes that is full of grain.
فَلا يُتَاحُ الْهَرَبُ لِلسَّرِيعِ، وَتَتَلاشَى قُوَّةُ الْجَبَّارِ، وَيَعْجِزُ الْقَوِيُّ عَنْ إِنْقَاذِ نَفْسِهِ. ١٤ 14
Flight will perish from the swift; and the strong won't strengthen his force; neither shall the mighty deliver himself;
وَلا يَصْمُدُ رَامِي الْقَوْسِ وَلا يُصِيبُ الْهَدَفَ، وَلا يَسْلَمُ سَرِيعُ الْعَدْوِ، وَلا يَنْجُو رَاكِبُ الْفَرَسِ بِحَيَاتِهِ. ١٥ 15
neither shall he stand who handles the bow; and he who is swift of foot won't escape; neither shall he who rides the horse deliver himself;
وَالثَّابِتُ الْجَنَانِ بَيْنَ أَقْرَانِهِ الأَبْطَالِ يَفِرُّ عُرْيَاناً فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. ١٦ 16
and he who is courageous among the mighty will flee away naked on that day," says the LORD.
