Amos 2
1 Ovako govori Jahve: “Za tri zločina Moaba, za četiri zločina, odluka je neopoziva: jer kosti edomskoga kralja spališe u vapno,
This is what Yahweh says: “For three sins of Moab, even for four, I will not turn away punishment, because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
2 pustit ću oganj na Moab da dvorce kerijotske sažeže, a Moab će umrijet u metežu, s bojnom grajom i sa zvukom trube;
I will send fire on Moab, and it will devour the fortresses of Kerioth. Moab will die in an uproar, with shouting and the sound of the trumpet.
3 oborit ću suca u njemu i poklati sve knezove s njime,” veli Jahve Gospod.
I will destroy the judge in her, and I will kill all the princes with him,” says Yahweh.
4 Ovako govori Jahve: “Za tri zločina Judina, za četiri zločina, odluka je neopoziva: jer odbaciše Zakon Jahvin i njegovih se odredaba ne držahu; zavedoše ih lažni bozi za kojima iđahu očevi njihovi,
This is what Yahweh says: “For three sins of Judah, even for four, I will not turn away punishment, because they rejected the law of Yahweh and did not keep his statutes. Their lies caused them to go astray, after which their fathers had also walked.
5 pustit ću oganj na Judu, da sažeže dvorce jeruzalemske.”
I will send fire on Judah, and it will devour the fortresses of Jerusalem.”
6 Ovako govori Jahve: “Za tri zločina Izraela, za četiri zločina, odluka je neopoziva: jer prodavahu pravednika za srebro i nevoljnika za sandale;
This is what Yahweh says: “For three sins of Israel, even for four, I will not turn away punishment, because they sold the innocent for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 jer gaze po glavi siromahu i sirotinju na zlo vode; sin i otac k istoj djevojci idu da oskvrnu moje sveto ime;
They trample on the heads of the poor as people trample on dust on the ground; they push the oppressed away. A man and his father sleep with the same girl and so profane my holy name.
8 i na haljinama u zalog uzetima leže kraj svakoga žrtvenika; i piju vino oglobljenih u Domu Boga svojega.
They lie down beside every altar on clothes taken as pledges, and in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who were fined.
9 Ja pred njima istrijebih Amorejce visoke k'o cedar, jake poput hrašća, ja uništih i plod na njima i korijen pod njima.
Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of cedars; he was strong as the oaks. Yet I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
10 Ja vas izvedoh iz zemlje egipatske i četrdeset vas godina vodih po pustinji da zaposjednete zemlju amorejsku.
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 Amorites.
11 Ja podigoh proroke izmeđ' vaših sinova i nazirejce među vašim mladićima. Nije li tako, sinovi Izraelovi? - riječ je Jahvina.
I raised up prophets from among your sons and Nazirites from your young men. Is it not so, people of Israel? —this is Yahweh's declaration.
12 Al' vi nagnaste nazirejce da vino piju, a prorocima zapovjediste: 'Ne prorokujte!'
But you persuaded the Nazirites to drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.
13 Gle, ja vas prignječujem o tlo pod vama, k'o što vršalice gnječe klasje;
Look, I will crush you as a cart that is full of grain can crush someone.
14 neće biti bijega brzu, jaka neće učvrstiti snaga, junak se neće spasiti,
The swift will find no escape; the strong will not add to his own strength; neither will the mighty save himself.
15 strijelac se neće održati, hitri trkač pobjeć' neće, nit' će jahač umaći,
The archer will not stand; the fast runner will not escape; the horseman will not save himself.
16 najsrčaniji će ratnici bježat' nagi onog dana” - riječ je Jahvina.
Even the bravest warriors will flee naked in that day —this is Yahweh's declaration.”
