A:imose 7
1 Na da esala ba: i amo ganodini Ouligisudafa Hina Gode ba: i. Isala: ili hina bagade ea gisi da noi dagoi amola gisi da bu heda: lebe amo esoga Hina Gode da danuba: wa: i bagadedafa hamonanebe ba: i.
This is what the Lord God showed me: he was forming a swarm of locusts, when the late spring grass began to come up after the king’s share had been harvested.
2 Na esala ba: i amo ganodini, na da danuba: mola: ya: i liligi huluane soge ganodini amo na dagoi ba: i. Amalalu, na da amane sia: i, “Ouligisudafa Hina Gode! Dia fi ilia hou gogolema: ne olofoma! Ilia da habodane esaloma: bela: ! Ilia da fonobahadi amola gasa hame!”
And when they had finished devouring all the land’s vegetation, I said: “Lord God, forgive, I beg you! How can Jacob survive, for he is so helpless?”
3 Hina Gode da Ea asigi dawa: su afadenene, amane sia: i, “Dia esala ba: i amo da dafawane hame ba: mu.”
The Lord relented. This will not happen,” said the Lord.
4 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da nama esala ba: su eno olelei. E da Ea fi dunu se dabe iasu ima: ne, lalu didilalu. Lalu da hano wayabo bagade osobo hagudu diala amo nei dagoi. Amalalu, lalu da osobo bagade amola amo nemusa: muni nenanu.
This is what he showed me: the Lord God was giving command to execute judgment by fire. It burned up the great deep, and had begun to devour the fields, and I said:
5 Amalalu, na amane sia: i, “Hame mabu! Ouligisudafa Hina Gode mae! Dia fi da habodane esaloma: bela: ? Ilia da fonobahadi amola gasa hame!”
“Lord God, forgive, I beg you! How can Jacob survive, for he is so helpless?”
6 Hina Gode da bu Ea asigi dawa: su afadenene, amane sia: i, “Amo amola da hame ba: mu.”
The Lord relented. “This will not happen either,” said the Lord.
7 Ouligisudafa Hina Gode da nama esala ba: su eno olelei. Amo ganodini na da Hina Gode dobea gagui (amo da ogoma efe ilegesu amoga defei) amo dafulili lelebe ba: i. Ea lobo ganodini, ogoma efe ilegesu dialebe ba: i.
This is what the Lord God showed me: the Lord was standing beside a wall built with a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand.
8 E da nama amane adole ba: i, “A: imose! Di da adi ba: sala: ?” Na da bu adole i, “Na da ogoma efe ilegesu ba: sa!” Amalalu, E da nama amane sia: i, “Amoga Na da dima olelesa. Na fi dunu da dobea noga: le hame ilegele gagui defele esala. Na da ilima se dabe iasu ima: ne Na asigi dawa: su bu hame afadenemu.
And the Lord said to me, “What do you see, Amos?” And I answered, “A plumb line,” Then the Lord said, “Watch: I am setting a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel, I will no longer overlook their crookedness.
9 Aisage egaga fi ilia nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Isala: ili soge hadigi sogebi huluane da wadela: lesi dagoi ba: mu. Na da hina bagade Yelouboua: me ea fi hina bagade hou huluane wadela: lesi dagomu.”
And the high places of Isaac will be desolate, the sanctuaries of Israel will be laid waste, and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”
10 A: masaia, Bedele gobele salasu dunu, da Yelouboua: me (Isala: ili hina bagade) ema sia: ne iasi amane, “A: imose da di wadela: ma: ne dunu huluane ilima hohonone sia: daha. Ea sia: da ninia soge fi huluane wadela: lesimu.
Then Amaziah, chief priest of Bethel sent this message to King Jeroboam of Israel: “Amos has conspired against you right in the heart of Israel. The country cannot survive all his words.
11 E da amane sia: daha, ‘Yelouboua: me da gegesu ganodini bogomu. Isala: ili fi dunu huluane da ilia sogega fadegale, ga soge amo ganodini mugululi asi dagoi ba: mu.’”
Amos has said, ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will be led away captive out of their land.’”
12 Amalalu, A:masaia da A: imosema amane sia: i, “Balofede dunu! Ouiya: ma! Eno hame! Di Yuda sogega buhagili, amogai dia sia: olelema. Ilia fawane da dia sia: beba: le, bidi imunu da defea.
And Amaziah said to Amos, “Leave, you who see visions, go to the land of Judah. Earn your bread there and prophesy there,
13 Be Bedele moilai guiguda: ba: la: lusu sia: bu mae sia: ma. Bai amo sogebi da Isala: ili hina bagade ea nodone sia: ne gadosu sogebi amola Isala: ili fi ilia Debolo sogebi.”
but don’t prophesy any more at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is the royal residence.”
14 A: imose da bu adole i, “Na da bidi lama: ne ba: la: lusu hou hame hamosa. Na da sibi ouligisu dunu amola figi ifa ouligisu dunu.
“I am no prophet,” Amos answered Amaziah, “nor trained as one. I am a shepherd and a keeper of sycamores fig trees.
15 Be Hina Gode da na sibi ouligisu hawa: hamosu fisili, ea fi Isala: ili dunuma fa: no misunu hou olelema: ne sia: i.
But the Lord took me away from following the flock, and the Lord said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’
16 Amaiba: le, wali Hina Gode Ea sia: nabima! Di da nama na da ba: la: lusu fisili, Isala: ili dunuma dadousa gagabosu sia: bu mae hamoma: ne sia: sa.
Now therefore listen to the Lord’s message: ‘You say not to prophesy against Israel, nor to preach against the house of Isaac.
17 Amaiba: le, A:masaia, Hina Gode da dima amane sia: sa, ‘Dia uda da di fisili, udigili moilai bai bagade ganodini ea da: i dunuma udigili bidi lamu. Amola dia mano huluane gegesu ganodini medole legei dagoi ba: mu. Dia soge da fifili, eno dunuma i dagoi ba: mu. Amola disu da Gode Ea hou hame lalegagui ga soge amo ganodini bogomu. Amola Isala: ili dunu da dafawane ilia sogega fadegale, eno sogega mugululi asi dagoi ba: mu.”
But the Lord says: Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, your land will be divided up, you will die on unclean soil, and Israel will be led away captive out of their land.’”
