Amos 3
1 Hear this word that Jehovah has spoken against you, O sons of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying,
Mijanjiña ty nitsarà’ Iehovà ry ana’ Israeleo, ry hene foko nakareko an-tane’ i Mitsraimeo, ami’ty hoe:
2 You only I have known of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will visit upon you all your iniquities.
Inahareo avao ty napotako amo kila foko ty tane toio; aa le fonga havaleko ama’ areo o hakeo’ areoo.
3 Shall two walk together unless they have agreed?
Mahay miharo lia hao ty roe naho tsy milahatse hey?
4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has taken nothing?
Hitroñe añ’ala ao hao ty liona naho tsy aman-tsàtsa’e? Hañaolo boak’ an-dakato’e ao hao ty liona tora’e naho tsy nahatsepake?
5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no net is set for him? Shall a snare spring up from the ground, and have taken nothing at all?
Mete hikoropok’ am-pandri-bo an-tane eo hao ty voroñe, naho tsy ama’e ty fitake? Hidraitse an-tane eo hao i bitsokey, ie tsy aman-ko tsepaheñe?
6 Shall the trumpet be blown in a city, and the people not be afraid? Shall evil befall a city, and Jehovah has not done it?
Naho tiofeñe an-drova ao i antsivay, tsy hangebahebake hao ondatio? Ie hizò hankàñe ty rova, tsy ho sata’ Iehovà hao?
7 Surely the lord Jehovah will do nothing unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.
Toe tsy hanao ndra inoñ’inoñe t’Iehovà, Talè, naho tsy borahe’e amo mpitoro’e mpitokio heike o safiri’e mietakeo.
8 The lion has roared, who will not fear? The lord Jehovah has spoken, who can but prophesy?
Fa nitroñe i lionay, ia ty tsy ho hembañe? Fa nitsara t’Iehovà, Talè, ia ty tsy hitoky?
9 Publish ye in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold what great tumults are in it, and what oppressions are in the midst of it.
Tseizo amo anjomba’ i Asdodeo naho amo anjomba an-tane’ Mitsraime añeo ty hoe: mitontona am-bohi’ i Somerone eo, naho mahaisaha ty fifandraparapahañe añivo’e ao vaho o forekekeñe ama’e aoo.
10 For they do not know to do right, says Jehovah, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
Fa tsy fohi’ iareo ty hanao ty hiti’e, hoe t’Iehovà, ie mañaja fikatramoañe, naho fampikamerañe añ’anjomba’ iareo ao.
11 Therefore thus says the lord Jehovah: An adversary shall be, even round about the land, and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be plundered.
Aa hoe t’Iehovà, Talè: Hiarikatohe’ ty rafelahy i taney naho harotsa’e o hafatrara’oo, vaho ho kopahe’e o anjomba’oo.
12 Thus says Jehovah: As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so shall the sons of Israel be rescued who sit in Samaria in the corner of a couch, and on the silken cushions of a bed.
Hoe t’i Iehovà: Manahake ty añakara’ ty mpiarake ami’ty montsilin-diona ty tombo’e roe ndra ty silan-tsofi’e, ty haneseañe o ana’ Israele mimoneñe e Someroneo, reketse ty indran-tihy ndra ty tombom-pandreañe.
13 Hear ye, and testify against the house of Jacob, says the lord Jehovah, the God of hosts.
Mijanjiña, le asisio ty anjomba’ Iakobe, hoe t’Iehovà, Talè Andrianañahare’ i màroy;
14 For in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him, I will also visit the altars of Bethel, and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
fa amy andro hañondrohako o fiolà’ Israeleoy, le ho valeako o kitreli’ i Beteleo, naho ho kitsifañe i tsifan-kitrely rey vaho hipok’ an-tane eo.
15 And I will smite the winter house with the summer house, and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, says Jehovah.
Hatraoko lafa i anjomban’asaray naho i anjomban’asotriy, hikoromake ka o anjomba aman-tsifao; toe hirotsake o anjomba jabajabao, hoe t’Iehovà.
