Amos 1
1 The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
Pawòl a Amos, ki te pami bèje mouton Tekoa yo, de sa li te wè nan vizyon konsènan Israël nan jou a Ozias, wa Juda a, e nan jou a Jéroboam, fis a Joas la, wa Israël la, dezan avan tranbleman tè an.
2 And he said, Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem, and the pastures of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.
Li te di: “SENYÈ a va gwonde soti nan Sion. Li va fè son vwa Li soti Jérusalem; epi patiraj a bèje yo va fè dèy, e anwo tèt Carmel va vin seche nèt.”
3 Thus says Jehovah: For three transgressions of Damascus, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment of it, because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Akoz de twa transgresyon a Damas yo, menm kat, mwen p ap retire pinisyon li; akoz yo te bat Galaad ak zouti an fè yo.
4 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
Pou sa, Mwen va voye dife sou kay Hazaël e li va devore sitadèl a Ben-Hadad yo.
5 And I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, and he who holds the scepter from the house of Eden, and the people of Syria shall go into captivity to Kir, says Jehovah.
Anplis, Mwen va kase baryè an fè Damas la; Mwen va koupe retire sila ki rete nan vale Bikath-Aven nan, ak sila ki kenbe baton wayal la soti Beth-Éden; epi pèp Syrie a va ale an egzil an Kir,” di SENYÈ a.
6 Thus says Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gaza, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment of it, because they carried away captive the whole people, to deliver them up to Edom.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Akoz de twa transgresyon Gaza yo, menm kat, mwen p ap retire pinisyon an, akoz yo te depòte tout pèp la, pou livre yo bay Édom.
7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it shall devour the palaces of it.
Pou sa, Mwen va voye dife sou miray Gaza a, epi li va devore sitadèl li yo nèt.
8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon. And I will turn my hand against Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, says the lord Jehovah.
Anplis, Mwen va koupe retire sila ki rete Asdod yo, ak sila ki kenbe baton wayal la nan Askalon. Mwen va tounen men mwen kont Ékron, epi retay a Filisten yo va peri,” di Senyè BONDYE a.
9 Thus says Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment of it, because they delivered up the whole people to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Akoz de twa transgresyon Tyr yo, menm kat, mwen p ap retire pinisyon an, akoz yo te livre tout pèp la nèt bay Édom, e yo pa t sonje akò fratènèl la.
10 But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it shall devour the palaces of it.
Akoz sa, Mwen va voye dife sou miray Tyr la, e li va devore sitadèl li yo.”
11 Thus says Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment of it, because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity. And his anger tore perpetually, and he kept his wrath forever.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Akoz de twa transgresyon Édom yo, menm kat; Mwen p ap retire pinisyon an, akoz li te kouri dèyè frè l ak nepe e te refize gen pitye. Mekontantman li te dechire tout tan, e li te kenbe kòlè li jis pou tout tan.
12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, and it shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
Pou sa, Mwen va voye dife sou Théman, e li va devore tout sitadèl Botsra yo.”
13 Thus says Jehovah: For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, yea, for four, I will not turn away the punishment of it, because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they may enlarge their border.
Konsa pale SENYÈ a: “Akoz de twa transgresyon a fis a Ammon yo, menm kat; Mwen p ap retire pinisyon an, akoz yo te chire vant fanm ansent Galaad yo pou agrandi lizyè yo.
14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces of it, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind.
Pou sa, Mwen va sanble yon dife sou miray Rabba a. Li va devore sitadèl li yo nèt, nan mitan gwo kri lagè nan jou batay la, nan mitan siklòn nan jou tanpèt la.
15 And their king shall go into captivity, he and his rulers together, says Jehovah.
Konsa, wa yo a va antre an egzil, li menm ansanm ak prens li yo,” di Senyè a.
