Amos 9

1 Ne aneno Ruoth Nyasaye kochungʼ e bath kendo mar misango, mi owachona niya, “Muk sirni duto mag hekalu mondo agola oyiengni. Mukgi mondo gilwar ewi ji, to joma otony, to abiro tieko gi ligangla, kendo onge ngʼat ma noringi kata notony.

I saw the Lord standing by the altar; and he said: Smite the capital, so that the thresholds shall tremble! Break them in pieces upon the heads of all of them! And their residue will I slay with the sword. He that fleeth of them shall not flee from danger, And he that escapeth of them shall not escape into safety.

2 Kata dabed ni gikunyo bur matut mi gichopo nyaka e piny joma otho, to kata mana kuno abiro chopoe mi agolgi oko. Kata dabed ni giidho mi gichopo e polo, to kata kuno abiro chopoe mi aduog-gi piny. (Sheol h7585)

Though they dig down to the under-world, Thence shall my hand take them; Though they climb up to heaven, Thence will I bring them down. (Sheol h7585)

3 Kata dabed ni gipondo ewi got Karmel, to kata mana kuno anadwargi mi amakgi. To kata dabed ni gipondona e bwo nam piny, to kata mana kuno anachik thuol mikagi.

Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, There will I search for them, and take them away; Though they hide themselves from mine eyes in the bottom of the sea, There will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them.

4 Kata dabed ni wasikgi oterogi e twech, to kata mana kuno abiro oro ligangla mondo otiekgi. “Anachom wangʼa kuomgi mondo atimnegi marach to ok maber.”

Though they go into captivity before their enemies, There will I command the sword, and it shall slay them; I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

5 Ruoth Nyasaye, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma komulo piny, to piny leny, kendo ji duto modak e piny ywak. Piny duto tingʼore malo, bangʼe to opie ka aora Nael man Misri!

For the Lord Jehovah of hosts Is he, that toucheth the earth, and it shall melt, And all that dwell therein shall mourn; All of it shall rise in waves like a river, And shall be overflowed, as by the river of Egypt;

6 Jehova Nyasaye gero ute e polo kendo orenjo mise mag polo e piny, bangʼe oluongo pi nam mondo obi kendo oologi e piny, Jehova Nyasaye e nyinge.

He that buildeth his upper rooms in the heavens, And foundeth his arch upon the earth, —That calleth the waters of the sea, And poureth them out upon the face of the earth, —Jehovah is his name.

7 “Donge jo-Israel chalo mana gi jo-Kush?” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Donge an ema ne agolo jo-Israel koa Misri, jo-Filistia koa Kaftor, kendo jo-Aram koa Kir?

Are ye not as the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? saith Jehovah. Did I not bring Israel from the land of Egypt, And the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

8 “Adier wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto rango pinyruoth motimo richo. Abiro ketho pinyruodhno e wangʼ piny, to kata kamano, ok anatiek joka Jakobo duto,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, And I will destroy it from the face of the earth; Yet will I not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith Jehovah.

9 “Anagol chik kendo abiro piedho jo-Israel, e kind ogendini duto, ka cham mipiedho e odheru, kendo kata wangʼ cham achiel ok nolwar piny.

For, behold, I will command, And I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, As one sifteth corn with a sieve, And not a grain shall fall upon the ground.

10 Joga duto ma joketho ibiro nego gi ligangla, kata mana mago mawacho ni, ‘Masira ok noyudwa kata chopo kuomwa.’

But all the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, Who say, Evil shall not approach, nor fall upon us.

11 “Chiengʼno anachung od Daudi mosepodho. Analos ohingane kod kuondene momukore duto. Anachak agere mi ochal kaka, ne entie chon,

In that day I will raise up the fallen tabernacle of David, And I will close up the breaches thereof, And raise up its ruins, And I will build it, as in the days of old.

12 mondo jo-Israel okaw jo-Edom modongʼ kaka margi kod ogendini mamoko maluongo nyinga,” Jehova Nyasaye mabiro miyo gima kamano timore ema owacho.

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations, which shall be called by my name. Thus saith Jehovah, who doeth this.

13 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ndalo biro ma cham biro bedo mangʼeny, ibiro golo pur ka ji pod keyo, kendo mzabibu nonyagi mathoth, kendo gibiro keto kodhi ka ji pod loso divai. Yiend mzabibu mangʼeny maber nonyag mathoth e gode duto mi unubed gi divai mangʼeny.

Behold the days come, saith Jehovah, That the plougher shall draw near to the reaper, And the treader of grapes to the sower of the seed; And the mountains shall drop new wine, And all the hills shall melt.

14 Bangʼe abiro miyo joga Israel duogi. “Kendo gibiro gero miechgi mane olokore gundni ma ginidagie, eka gibiro pidho yiend mzabibu, kendo madho divai mare. Gibiro puro puothegi, kendo chamo nyak margi.

I will bring back the captives of my people Israel, And they shall build the desolate cities, and shall inhabit them; And they shall plant vineyards, and drink their wine; They shall also make gardens, and eat their fruit.

15 Abiro guro jo-Israel e pinygi mane amiyogi, kendo onge ngʼama nochak ogolgi kendo,” Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi owacho.

I will plant them in their land, And they shall no more be rooted up from the land which I have given them, Saith Jehovah, thy God.
