阿摩司书 6
1 国为列国之首，人最著名， 且为以色列家所归向， 在锡安和撒马利亚山安逸无虑的，有祸了！
How disastrous it will be for you who have an easy life in Zion, and you who feel secure living on Mount Samaria—you who are the most famous men in all of Israel to whom people come for help!
2 你们要过到甲尼察看， 从那里往大城哈马去， 又下到非利士人的迦特， 看那些国比你们的国还强吗？ 境界比你们的境界还宽吗？
But go to Calneh, and see what took place there. Then go on to the great city of Hamath, and down to the Philistine city of Gath. Were they better kingdoms than yours? Did they have more territory than you?
3 你们以为降祸的日子还远， 坐在位上尽行强暴。
You put out of your minds any thought of coming disaster, yet you are bringing closer the time when violence reigns.
4 你们躺卧在象牙床上，舒身在榻上， 吃群中的羊羔，棚里的牛犊；
How disastrous it will be for you people who lie on beds decorated with ivory and lounge on couches, eating lamb from your flocks and fattened calves from the stall.
5 弹琴鼓瑟唱消闲的歌曲， 为自己制造乐器，如同大卫所造的；
You make up songs accompanied by the harp, thinking you're great composers like David.
6 以大碗喝酒，用上等的油抹身， 却不为约瑟的苦难担忧。
You drink wine by the bowlful, and anoint yourselves with the finest oils, but you do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph's descendants.
7 所以这些人必在被掳的人中首先被掳； 舒身的人荒宴之乐必消灭了。
So you will be at the head of those led away into exile; the feasting and lazing around will be over.
8 主耶和华—万军之 神指着自己起誓说： 我憎恶雅各的荣华，厌弃他的宫殿； 因此，我必将城和其中所有的都交付敌人。
The Lord God has sworn an oath on his own life. This is what the Lord God of power declares: I detest Jacob's arrogance and I hate his fortresses; I will hand over this city and all in it to the enemy.
9 那时，若在一房之内剩下十个人，也都必死。
If there are ten people in a house, they will die.
10 死人的伯叔，就是烧他尸首的，要将这尸首搬到房外，问房屋内间的人说：“你那里还有人没有？”他必说：“没有”；又说：“不要作声，因为我们不可提耶和华的名。”
And when a relative comes to take away the bodies from the house, he will ask someone inside “Is there anyone else with you?” The person will reply, “No...” Then the other will say, “Quiet! Don't even mention the Lord's name.”
11 看哪，耶和华出令， 大房就被攻破， 小屋就被打裂。
Watch out! When the Lord gives the command, large houses will be reduced to rubble, and small houses smashed to pieces.
12 马岂能在崖石上奔跑？ 人岂能在那里用牛耕种呢？ 你们却使公平变为苦胆， 使公义的果子变为茵 。
Can horses gallop over rocks? Can oxen plow the sea? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of doing good into bitterness!
13 你们喜爱虚浮的事，自夸说： 我们不是凭自己的力量取了角吗？
You joyfully celebrate your conquest of Lodebar, and say “Didn't we in our own strength capture Karnaim?”
14 耶和华、万军之 神说： 以色列家啊，我必兴起一国攻击你们； 他们必欺压你们， 从哈马口直到亚拉巴的河。
Watch out, people of Israel! I am going to send an enemy nation to attack you, says the Lord God of power, and they will oppress you from the Pass of Hamath to the Arabah Valley.
