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 beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake. Break them in pieces on the head of all of them. I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will flee away. Not one of them will escape.

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 into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will 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 in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will 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 I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on 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, Yahweh of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like 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.

It is he who builds his rooms in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth—Yahweh 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 you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says Yahweh. “Haven’t I brought up Israel out of 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 Yahweh are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” says Yahweh.

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 grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth.

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

All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil won’t overtake nor meet 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 tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will 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 who are called by my name,” says Yahweh who does 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,” says Yahweh, “that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.

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 my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. 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 on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them,” says Yahweh your God.
