Amos 2
1 This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Moab, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because he burned to lime the bones of Edom’s king.
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Moab, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Nʼihi na ha surere ọkpụkpụ eze ndị Edọm ọkụ, mee ha ka ha ghọọ ntụ.
2 So I will send fire against Moab to consume the citadels of Kerioth. Moab will die in tumult, amid war cries and the sound of the ram’s horn.
Ya mere, aga m ezite ọkụ na Moab, nke ga-erepịa ebe niile e wusiri ike nke Keriọt. Moab ga-anwụ nʼime ọgbaaghara, nʼetiti mkpu agha, na ụda opi ike.
3 I will cut off the ruler of Moab and kill all the officials with him,”
Aga m ala onyeisi ọchịchị ya nʼiyi, gbukwaa ndị ozi niile nọ nʼokpuru ya.” Ọ bụ Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu.
4 This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Judah, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they reject the Law of the LORD and fail to keep His statutes; they are led astray by the lies in which their fathers walked.
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Juda, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Nʼihi na ha ajụla iwu Onyenwe anyị. Ha ajụkwala irube isi ha nʼụkpụrụ ya. Ha abụrụla ndị e ji okwu ụgha duhie, bụ okwu ụgha ndị ahụ nna nna ha gbasoro.
5 So I will send fire upon Judah to consume the citadels of Jerusalem.”
Nʼihi nke a, aga m esunye ọkụ na Juda, ọ ga-erepịa ebe niile e wusiri ike nke Jerusalem.”
6 This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Israel, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they sell the righteous for silver and the needy for a pair of sandals.
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Izrel, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Ha na-ere ndị ezi omume nʼihi ọlaọcha, reekwa ụmụ ogbenye nʼọnụ ahịa e ji azụ akpụkpọụkwụ abụọ.
7 They trample on the heads of the poor as on the dust of the earth; they push the needy out of their way. A man and his father have relations with the same girl and so profane My holy name.
Ha na-azọpịa isi ndị ike na-adịghị, na-echi ha ọnụ nʼaja, na-ewezuga ndị dị umeala nʼụzọ ezi ihe. Nwoke na nna ya na-edinakwuru otu nwaagbọghọ, si otu a merụọ aha nsọ m.
8 They lie down beside every altar on garments taken in pledge. And in the house of their God, they drink wine obtained through fines.
Ha na-edina nʼakụkụ ebe ịchụ aja ọbụla, nʼelu uwe ndị anatara na mbe. Nʼime ụlọnsọ chi ha, ha na-aṅụ mmanya ha natara dịka ihe nra.
9 Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, though his height was like that of the cedars, and he was as strong as the oaks. Yet I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.
“Ma a lara m ndị Amọrait nʼiyi nʼihu ha, ndị ahụ dị ogologo dịka osisi sida, ndị sikwara ike dịka osisi ook. Alara m mkpụrụ ha dị nʼelu, na mgbọrọgwụ ha niile dị nʼokpuru nʼiyi.
10 And I brought you up from the land of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness, that you might take possession of the land of the Amorite.
Esitere m nʼala Ijipt kpọpụta unu, duru unu gafee nʼọzara iri afọ anọ, ime ka unu nweta ala ndị Amọrait.
11 I raised up prophets from your sons and Nazirites from your young men. Is this not true, O children of Israel?”
“Ahọpụtara m ụmụ unu ụfọdụ ka ha bụrụ ndị amụma, họpụtakwa ụfọdụ ndị okorobịa unu ka ha bụrụ Nazirait. Unu ndị Izrel, unu ga-agọ na nke a abụghị eziokwu?” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwupụtara ya.
12 “But you made the Nazirites drink wine and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.
“Ma unu mere ka ndị Nazirait ahụ ṅụọ mmanya. Unu nyekwara ndị amụma iwu ka ha kwụsị ibu amụma.
13 Behold, I am about to crush you in your place as with a cart full of grain.
“Nʼihi ya, aga m abịada unu nʼala nʼọnọdụ unu, dịka ụgbọala nke e bujuru ukwu ọka si abịada.
14 Escape will fail the swift, the strong will not prevail by his strength, and the mighty will not save his life.
Ịgba ọsọ agaghị azọpụta ọ bụladị ndị dị nwe ụkwụ ọsọ, ndị dị ike agaghị agba onwe ha ume, ndị bụ dike nʼagha agaghị azọpụta onwe ha.
15 The archer will not stand his ground, the fleet of foot will not escape, and the horseman will not save his life.
Ndị na-agba ụta agaghị agbata ihe ọbụla, ndị nwere ụkwụ ọsọ agaghị enwekwa ike ịgba ọsọ. Ọ bụladị onye ịgba ịnyịnya doro anya agakwaghị enwe ike ịgbanarị ihe mberede nke ga-abịakwasị ya.
16 Even the bravest of mighty men will flee naked on that day,”
Ndị obi siri ike nʼetiti ndị dike unu, ga-agbara ọtọ gbapụ ọsọ nʼụbọchị ahụ.” Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwubiri.
