Amos 9
1 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.
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 (Sheol h7585), there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down.
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 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.
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 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.
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, the GOD 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.
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 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—the LORD 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 you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says the LORD. “Have not I 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 GOD 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 the LORD.
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 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.
“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 will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil will 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 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,
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 who are called by my name,” says the LORD 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 the LORD, “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.
“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 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.
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 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 the LORD your 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.
