عامُوس 9

١ 1 وَرَأَيْتُ السَّيِّدَ وَاقِفاً إِلَى جُوَارِ الْمَذْبَحِ قَائِلاً: «اضْرِبْ تِيجَانَ الأَعْمِدَةِ حَتَّى تَهْتَزَّ الْعَتَبَاتُ، وَحَطِّمْهَا عَلَى رُؤُوسِ جَمِيعِ الشَّعْبِ. وَمَنْ يَنْجُو مِنْهُمْ أُهْلِكُهُ بِالسَّيْفِ، فَلا يَهْرُبُ مِنْهُمْ أَحَدٌ وَلا يُفْلِتُ مِنْهُمْ نَاجٍ.

I saw the LORD standing on the altar: and he said, Smite the lintel of the door, that the posts may shake: and cut them in the head, all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that flees of them shall not flee away, and he that escapes of them shall not be delivered.

٢ 2 وَإِنْ نَقَبُوا لأَنْفُسِهِمْ مَلْجَأً فِي أَعْمَاقِ الْهَاوِيَةِ، فَإِنَّ يَدِي تَطُولُهُمْ هُنَاكَ، وَإِنِ ارْتَقَوْا إِلَى السَّمَاوَاتِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ أُنْزِلُهُمْ. (Sheol h7585)

Though they dig into hell, there shall my hand take them; though they climb up to heaven, there will I bring them down: (Sheol h7585)

٣ 3 وَإِنِ اخْتَبَأُوا فِي أَعَالِي الْكَرْمَلِ فَهُنَاكَ أَبْحَثُ عَنْهُمْ وَأَعْتَقِلُهُمْ. وَإِنْ تَوَارَوْا عَنِّي فِي أَعْمَاقِ الْبَحْرِ فَإِنِّي آمُرُ هُنَاكَ الْحَيَّةَ فَتَلْدَغُهُمْ.

And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out there; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them:

٤ 4 وَإِنْ سِيقُوا إِلَى السَّبْيِ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِهِمْ أُلاحِقُهُمْ بِالسَّيْفِ لأَفْنِيَهُمْ، وَأَتَعَقَّبُهُمْ لأَبْتَلِيَهُمْ بِالشَّرِّ لَا بِالْخَيْرِ».

And though they go into captivity before their enemies, there will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.

٥ 5 إِنَّ الرَّبَّ الإِلَهَ الْقَدِيرَ هُوَ الَّذِي يَلْمَسُ الأَرْضَ فَتَذُوبُ، وَيَنُوحُ كُلُّ الْمُقِيمِينَ فِيهَا، وَيَرْتَفِعُ كُلُّ مَا فِيهَا وَيَنْخَفِضُ كَنَهْرِ نِيلِ مِصْرَ.

And the Lord GOD of hosts is he that touches the land, and it shall melt, and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up wholly like a flood; and shall be drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.

٦ 6 هُوَ الَّذِي يَبْنِي مَخَادِعَهُ الْعُلْيَا فِي السَّمَاوَاتِ وَيُؤَسِّسُ قُبَّتَهُ عَلَى الأَرْضِ، الَّذِي يَدْعُو مِيَاهَ الْبَحْرِ وَيَسْكُبُهَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الثَّرَى، الرَّبُّ اسْمُهُ.

It is he that builds his stories in the heaven, and has founded his troop in the earth; he that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth: The LORD is his name.

٧ 7 أَلَسْتُمْ لِي يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ مِثْلَ الْكُوشِيِّينَ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ؟ أَلَمْ أُخْرِجْ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ دِيَارِ مِصْرَ وَالْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِنْ كَفْتُورَ وَالأَرَامِيِّينَ مِنْ قِيرٍ.

Are you not as children of the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? says the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

٨ 8 هَا إِنَّ عَيْنَيِ الرَّبِّ مُسَلَّطَتَانِ عَلَى الْمَمْلَكَةِ الْخَاطِئَةِ لأَمْحُوَهَا عَنْ وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، إِلّا أَنِّي لَنْ أَسْتَأْصِلَ بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ قَاطِبَةً يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, says the LORD.

٩ 9 أُغَرْبِلُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ الأُمَمِ كَمَا تُغَرْبَلُ الْحِنْطَةُ فِي غُرْبَالٍ، فَلا تَسْقُطُ حَبَّةٌ عَلَى الأَرْضِ.

For, see, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corn is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall on the earth.

١٠ 10 وَيَمُوتُ جَمِيعُ خُطَاةِ شَعْبِي بِالسَّيْفِ مِمَّنْ يَقُولُونَ: لَنْ يُدْرِكَنَا الشَّرُّ أَوْ يَلْقَانَا.

All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.

١١ 11 فِي ذَلِكَ الْيَوْمِ أُقِيمُ مَسْكَنَ دَاوُدَ الَّذِي تَهَاوَى، وَأَسُدُّ ثُغْرَاتِهِ وَأُعَمِّرُ خَرَائِبَهُ وَأُعِيدُ بِنَاءَهُ كَالْعَهْدِ بِهِ فِي الأَيَّامِ الْغَابِرَةِ.

In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old:

١٢ 12 لِكَيْ يَرِثَ إِسْرَائِيلُ مَا تَبَقَّى مِنْ أَدُومَ وَجَمِيعَ الأُمَمِ الَّتِي دُعِيَ اسْمِي عَلَيْهَا، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ صَانِعُ هَذِهِ الأُمُورِ.

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, which are called by my name, says the LORD that does this.

١٣ 13 هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ، يُدْرِكُ فِيهَا الْحَارِثُ الْحَاصِدَ، وَدَائِسُ الْعِنَبِ بَاذِرَ الْحَبِّ، وَتَسِيلُ الْخُمورُ الطَّيِّبَةُ مِنْ كُرُومِ الْجِبَالِ وَتَفِيضُ بِها التِّلالُ كُلُّهَا.

Behold, the days come, says the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that sows seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.

١٤ 14 وَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيُعِيدُونَ بِنَاءَ الْمُدُنِ الْخَرِبَةِ وَيَسْكُنُونَهَا، وَيَزْرَعُونَ كُرُوماً وَيَشْرَبُونَ مِنْ خَمْرِهَا، وَيَغْرِسُونَ جَنَّاتٍ وَيَأْكُلُونَ مِنْ ثِمَارِهَا.

And I will bring again the captivity of my people of Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

١٥ 15 وَأَغْرِسُ شَعْبِي فِي أَرْضِهِمْ فَلا يُسْتَأْصَلُونَ ثَانِيَةً أَبَداً مِنَ الأَرْضِ الَّتِي وَهَبْتُهَا لَهُمْ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ إِلَهُكُمْ.

And I will plant them on their land, and they shall no more be pulled up out of their land which I have given them, says the LORD your God.
