Amos 6
1 “Mano kaka unune malit un joma odak maber e Sayun, kod un joma nigi geno ni gode mag Samaria nyalo resogi, kaachiel gi un joma omi luor mag oganda maduongʼ, ma jo-Israel dhi irgi mondo oyud konyruok!
Woe to them that dwell at ease in Zion; That feel secure upon the mountain of Samaria; The honorable men of the chief of the nations, To whom the house of Israel resort!
2 Dhiuru uneye Kalne, mi uchop nyaka Hamath, eka bangʼe ulor udhi nyaka Gath manie piny jo-Filistia. Uparo ni pinjego ber moloyo pinjeu? Koso uparo ni nitiere piny maduongʼ moloyo pinyu?
Pass over to Calneh, and see; And thence go to great Hamath; Then go down to Gath of the Philistines: Are they better than these kingdoms, Or is their border greater than your border?
3 Un joma ok odewo odiechieng bura mabiro, to kata kamano timbeu medo mana kelonu chandruok!
Woe to them, that put far away the day of evil, And bring near the seat of oppression;
4 Un joma nindo e kitendini mokedi gi lak liech, kendo utaroru e kombeu madongo, kuchamo nyirombe mayom ma jambu onywolo, kod nyirwethu machwe mopidh maber.
That lie upon beds of ivory, And stretch themselves upon their couches; That eat lambs from the flock, And calves from the stall;
5 Un joma goyo thum kaka Daudi nogoyo kendo uchuogo wende mag nyatiti.
That chant to the sound of the harp, And invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;
6 Un joma madho divai mangʼeny gi agwetni madongo, kendo uwiroru gi modhi mangʼwe ngʼar ma nengogi tek, to ok ane ka un gi lit kata ka joka Josef rumo kamano.
That drink wine in bowls, And anoint themselves with the most precious perfumes, But grieve not for the destruction of Joseph!
7 Kuom mano, un e joma ibiro kuongo daro kitero e twech, kendo mano ema biro bedo giko mar dhialruoku.”
Therefore now shall they go captive at the head of the captives; Yea, the shouting of them that stretch themselves upon their couches shall cease.
8 Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, osekwongʼore kosingore owuon niya, “Asin gi sunga mar joka Jakobo, kendo asin nyaka gi ohinga mag-gi moger motegno; omiyo abiro chiwo dalagi kod gik moko manie iye e lwet wasigu.”
The Lord Jehovah hath sworn by himself, Thus saith Jehovah, the God of hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, And I hate his palaces; I will give up the city, and all that is therein.
9 Ka ji apar odongʼ kata e ot achiel, to gin bende gibiro tho.
And if ten men remain in one house, These also shall die.
10 To ka achiel kuom wede joma othogo obiro mondo okaw wadgi mondo owangʼ, to nopenj ngʼat motonyno niya, “Bende ngʼato ni kodi kanyo?” Ngʼatno nodwoke niya, “ooyo,” kendo nowachne niya, “Lingʼ thi nikech ok onego waluong nying Jehova Nyasaye ka.”
A man's relative, or a burner of the dead, shall take him up, To carry his bones out of the house, And he shall say to him that is in the innermost part of the house, Is there yet any one with thee? And he shall answer, No one! Then shall he say, Keep silence! For we may not make mention of the name of Jehovah.
11 Jehova Nyasaye osegolo chik, kendo obiro muko udi madongo malokre pidhe, to udi matindo obiro toyo matindo tindo.
For behold Jehovah hath commanded, And he will smite the great house with breaches, And the small house with clefts.
12 Bende farese nyalo ringo e kite, koso ngʼato nyalo puro wi kitego gi dhok? Kata kamano, un to uloko bura makare bedo gima kech, bende tim makare uloko gima rach.
Shall horses run upon rocks, Or will one plough rocks with oxen, That ye change justice into hemlock, And the fruit of equity into wormwood,
13 Umor ka umonjo jo-Lo Debir ka upakoru niya, “Donge ne waloyo jo-Karnaim gi tekowa wawegi?”
Ye that rejoice in a thing of naught, And say, Have we not acquired dominion by our own strength?
14 Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma en Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Yaye jo-Israel, abiro kelo oganda moro mondo omonju, ka gisandou chakre Lebo Hamath nyaka e holo mar Araba.”
Behold, O house of Israel, saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, I will raise against you a nation, That shall oppress you from Hamath Even to the brook of the desert.
