Amos 9
1 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar. And he said, Smite the capitals, that the thresholds may shake, and break them in pieces on the head of all of them, and I will kill the last of them with the sword. There shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.
Mwen te wè Senyè a, ki te kanpe akote lotèl la, e Li te di: “Frape tèt poto yo jiskaske papòt yo tranble. Kraze yo an moso sou tèt a yo tout! Answit, mwen va touye rès yo ak nepe. Yo p ap gen yon grenn refijye ki pou sove ale, ni yon refijye k ap chape.
2 Though they dig into Sheol, from there my hand shall take them, and though they climb up to heaven, from there I will bring them down. (Sheol h7585)
Menmsi yo ta fouye antre nan sejou mò yo; la, men, Mwen va pran yo soti la. Menmsi yo monte rive nan syèl la, Mwen va rale yo soti la pou fè yo desann. (Sheol h7585)
3 And though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there. And though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, from there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them.
Menmsi yo kache sou tèt mòn Carmel la, Mwen va chèche fè yo soti la; epi menmsi yo ta kache kò yo anba nan pwofondè lanmè a, mwen va kòmande sèpan an, e li va mòde yo.
4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies, from there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them. And I will set my eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.
Menmsi yo antre an kaptivite devan lènmi yo, Mwen va kòmande nepe soti la pou touye yo. Konsa, Mwen va fikse zye M kont yo pou mal, e non pa pou byen.
5 For the Lord, Jehovah of hosts, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell therein shall mourn. And it shall rise up wholly like the River, and shall sink again like the River of Egypt.
Senyè BONDYE dèzame yo, se Sila ki touche tè a pou li fann, e tout sila ki rete ladann yo, va fè dèy. Kriye sa a va monte tankou Rivyè Nil lan, e vin bese ankò tankou Nil Égypte la.
6 He who builds his chambers in the heavens, and has founded his vault upon the earth, he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out upon the face of the earth, Jehovah is his name.
Sila ki bati chanm wo Li yo nan syèl yo, e ki te etabli vout plafon syèl la anwo tè a, sila ki rele dlo lanmè yo pou vide yo sou sifas tè a—se SENYÈ a ki non Li.
7 Are ye not as the sons of the Ethiopians to me, O sons of Israel? says Jehovah. Have I not brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?
Èske nou pa tankou fis a Ethiopie yo pou Mwen, O fis Israël yo?” deklare SENYÈ a. “Èske Mwen pa t mennen Israël fè l monte soti nan peyi Égypte, ak Filisten yo soti Caphtor e Siryen yo soti Kir?
8 Behold, the eyes of the lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, says Jehovah.
Gade byen, zye a Senyè BONDYE a sou wayòm nan ki plen peche a; Mwen va detwi l soti sou sifas tè a. Sepandan Lakay Jacob la p ap detwi nèt,” deklare SENYÈ a.
9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, just as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet the least kernel shall not fall upon the earth.
“Paske gade byen, Mwen ap kòmande, e Mwen va souke lakay Israël pami nasyon yo, tankou yon grenn k ap souke nan yon paswa, men menm yon grenn p ap tonbe atè.
10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, who say, The evil shall not overtake nor meet us.
Tout pechè pami pèp Mwen an va mouri pa nepe, sila yo k ap di: ‘Malè pa rive sou nou ni parèt devan nou.’
11 In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof. And I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old,
Nan jou sa a, Mwen va fè leve Lakay David ki te tonbe a, e ranfòse brèch li yo. Anplis, Mwen va leve mazi kraze li yo, e fè l vin rebati tankou nan jou ansyen yo;
12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations that are called by my name, says Jehovah who does this.
pou yo kapab vin posede retay Édom an ak tout nasyon ki rele pa non Mwen yo,” deklare SENYÈ ki fè sa a.
13 Behold, the days come, says Jehovah, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him who sows seed, and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.
“Gade byen, jou yo ap vini,” deklare SENYÈ a, “lè sila k ap raboure a va depase sila k ap rekòlte a, e sila k ap foule rezen an va depase sila k ap simen grenn nan; lè mòn yo va degoute diven dous e tout kolin yo va vin fann nèt ak dousè li.
14 And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them, and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine of it. They shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
Anplis, Mwen va restore pèp Mwen an, Israël, ki an kaptivite a, e yo va rebati vil ki kraze nèt yo pou yo viv ladan yo. Anplis, yo va plante chan rezen yo pou bwè diven yo; epi fè jaden pou manje fwi yo.
15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, says Jehovah thy God.
Mwen va osi plante yo sou pwòp tèren pa yo, e yo p ap dechouke yo ankò soti nan peyi ke Mwen te bay yo a,” pale SENYÈ a, Bondye Ou a.
