< Amos 1 >

1 Magi e weche Amos mane en achiel kuom jokwath mane odak Tekoa. Wechegi ne oneno kuom Israel higni ariyo kane piny pok oyiengni, kendo e kindeno Uzia ema ne ruodh Juda, to Jeroboam ma wuod Joash to ne ruodh Israel.
The words of Amos which came [to him] in Accarim out of Thecue, which he saw concerning Jerusalem, in the days of Ozias king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 Nowacho niya, “Jehova Nyasaye ruto koa Sayun, kendo dwonde mor koa Jerusalem; lege ma jokwath kwayoe two, kendo wi got Karmel mosebedo ka ngʼich koro ner.”
And he said, The Lord has spoken out of Sion, and has uttered his voice out of Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds have mourned, and the top of Carmel is dried up.
3 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Jo-Damaski osebedo katimo richo mangʼeny, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech gisesando jo-Gilead, ka gigoyogi kod gima bith molos gi nyinyo,
And the Lord said, For three sins of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away from it; because they sawed with iron saws the women with child of the Galaadites.
4 kuom mano abiro oro mach e od Hazael, ma biro wangʼo ohinga mochiel motegno mag Ben-Hadad.
And I will send a fire on the house of Azael, and it shall devour the foundations of the son of Ader.
5 Abiro muko dhoranga Damaski, kendo abiro riembo joma odak e Holo mar Aven, kaachiel gi ngʼat motingʼo ludh Jehova Nyasaye man Beth Eden. Jo-Aram ibiro dar miter mabor e twech e piny Kir,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
And I will break to pieces the bars of Damascus, and will destroy the inhabitants out of the plain of On, and will cut in pieces a tribe out of the men of Charrhan: and the famous people of Syria shall be led captive, saith the Lord.
6 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Jo-Gaza osebedo katimo richo mangʼeny, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech gisemako ogendini duto mi giterogi e twech e piny Edom,
Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away from them; because they took prisoners the captivity of Solomon, to shut [them] up into Idumea.
7 kuom mano abiro oro mach mi owangʼ ohinga mag Gaza mochiel motegno.
And I will send forth a fire on the walls of Gaza, and it shall devour its foundations.
8 Abiro riembo ruodh Ashdod kaachiel gi ngʼat motingʼo ludh Jehova Nyasaye man Ashkelon. Abiro kumo dala mar Ekron, kendo abiro nego jo-Filistia duto modongʼ,” Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto owacho.
And I will destroy the inhabitants out of Azotus, and a tribe shall be cut off from Ascalon, and I will stretch out my hand upon Accaron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord.
9 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Turo osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech gisemako ogendini duto mi giterogi e twech e piny Edom, ma ok girito winjruok mar osiep mane gitimo kodgi,
Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not turn away from it; because they shut up the prisoners of Solomon into Idumea, and remembered not the covenant of brethren.
10 kuom mano abiro oro mach mi wangʼ ohinga mag Turo mochiel motegno.”
And I will send forth a fire on the walls of Tyre, and it shall devour the foundations of it.
11 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Edom osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech nolawo owadgi gi ligangla ka oonge gi ngʼwono, kendo ne osiko mana ka omako kode sadha,
Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of Idumea, and for four, I will not turn away from them; because they pursued their brother with the sword, and destroyed the mother upon the earth, and summoned up his anger for a testimony, and kept up his fury to the end.
12 kuom mano, abiro oro mach mi wangʼ Teman, kendo enowangʼ ohinga mochiel motegno mag Bozra.”
And I will send forth a fire upon Thaman, and it shall devour the foundations of her walls.
13 Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Nikech richo adek ma jo-Amon osetimo, kata richo angʼwen, omiyo ok abi weyo ma ok akumogi. Nikech gisenego mine ma yach mag Gilead mondo omi giyar tongʼ mag lopegi,
Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away from him; because they ripped up the women with child of the Galaadites, that they might widen their coasts.
14 kuom mano abiro moko mach e ohinga mag Raba kendo abiro wangʼo kuonde mochiel motegno mag dalano. Mahu nowinjre chiengʼ kedo kendo lweny nobed mager.
And I will kindle a fire on the walls of Rabbath, and it shall devour her foundations with shouting in the day of war, and she shall be shaken in the days of her destruction:
15 Ruodhigi kaachiel gi jodong-gi ibiro daro miter e twech,” Jehova Nyasaye owacho.
and her kings shall go into captivity, their priests and their rulers together, saith the Lord.
