Amos 2

1 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Moab osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech ne giwangʼo choke mag ruodh Edom molokore buru,

Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Moab, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because it burnt the bones of the King of Edom into lime.

2 kuom mano abiro oro mach e piny Moab mondo owangʼ kuonde mochiel motegno mag Kerioth. Jo-Moab biro tho ei lweny mager, ka jolweny giyo sigich lweny kendo tungʼ ywak.

Therefore will I send a fire vpon Moab, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Kerioth, and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of a trumpet.

3 Abiro nego ruodh Moab kaachiel gi jotend pinyno duto,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

And I will cut off the iudge out of the mids thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, sayth the Lord.

4 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Juda osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech gisetamore rito chike Jehova Nyasaye kod buchene, kendo osewuondgi mi gisebaro giluwo bangʼ nyiseche manono mag kweregi,

Thus saith the Lord, For three transgressions of Iudah, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they haue cast away the Lawe of the Lord, and haue not kept his commandementes, and their lies caused them to erre after the which their fathers haue walked.

5 kuom mano abiro oro mach e piny Juda, kod kuonde mochiel motegno mag Jerusalem.”

Therefore will I send a fire vpon Iudah, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Ierusalem.

6 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Israel osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech ungʼiewo joma kare gi fedha, to joma odhier ma ok nyal chudo, to ungʼiewo gi pat pat.

Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Israel, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because they solde the righteous for siluer and the poore for shooes.

7 Unyono jochan piny mana ka buru kendo ok ungʼad bura makare, ne joma odhier. Wuowi gi wuon mare terore gi nyako achiel kendo udwanyo Nyinga Maler.

They gape ouer the head of the poore, in the dust of the earth, and peruert the wayes of the meeke: and a man and his father will goe in to a mayde to dishonour mine holy Name.

8 Ginindo piny e lewni mosing but kende mag misango. Divai ma gikawo kuom joma gigoyo faini gimadho e od nyasachgi.

And they lye downe vpon clothes layde to pledge by euery altar: and they drinke the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.

9 “Ne atieko jo-Amor mana ka gineno, kata obedo nine gin roboche ka yiend sida, kendo roteke ka yiend ober. Ne aketho olembene kod tiendene!

Yet destroyed I the Amorite before the, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the okes: notwithstanding I destroyed his fruite from aboue, and his roote from beneath.

10 Ne agolou e piny Misri, mi atelonu higni piero angʼwen e thim, ni mondo amiu piny jo-Amor.

Also I brought you vp from the land of Egypt, and led you fourtie yeres thorowe the wildernesse, to possesse the land of the Amorite.

11 “Ne awalo yawuotu mondo obed jonabi, to moko e dieru naketo mondo obed jo-Nazir. Donge mano en adier, yaye jo-Israel?” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

And I raysed vp of your sonnes for Prophets, and of your yong men for Nazarites. Is it not euen thus, O ye children of Israel, sayth the Lord?

12 “Ne umiyo jo-Nazir omadho divai, kendo nukwero jonabi ni kik gikor wach.

But ye gaue the Nazarites wine to drinke, and commanded the Prophetes, saying, Prophecie not.

13 “Sani koro abiro diyou piny kama untie, mana ka cham mopongʼo gari mayiecho gari.

Behold, I am pressed vnder you as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaues.

14 Joma ongʼeyo ngʼwech sani koro ok bi tony, joma rateke abiro keto bedo mool, bende nyaka jalweny manenore ni ger ok bi konyo ngimane.

Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mightie saue his life.

15 Kata jadir asere ok noyud thuolo mar ringo, kendo jangʼwech ma jalweny ok noresre, kaachiel gi jalweny moidho faras bende ok notony.

Nor he that handleth the bowe, shall stand, and he that is swift of foote, shall not escape, neyther shall he that rideth the horse, saue his life.

16 To kata mana jolweny mathuondi moloyo noring duge chiengʼno,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.

And he that is of a mighty courage among the strong men, shall flee away naked in that day, sayth the Lord.
