Amos 3
1 Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family that I brought up out of the land of Egypt:
Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa ti sọ nípa rẹ̀, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Israẹli nípa àwọn ìdílé tí mo mú jáde láti Ejibiti:
2 “Only you have I known from all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
“Ìwọ nìkan ni ẹni tí mo yàn nínú gbogbo àwọn ìran ayé yìí; nígbà náà èmi ó jẹ ọ́ ní yà fún gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ.”
3 Can two walk together without agreeing where to go?
Ẹni méjì ha à le rìn pọ̀ láìjẹ́ pé wọ́n ti pinnu láti ṣe bẹ?
4 Does a lion roar in the forest when he has no prey? Does a young lion growl in his den if he has caught nothing?
Ǹjẹ́ Kìnnìún yóò ha bú ramúramù nínú igbó, bí kò bá ní ohun ọdẹ? Ọmọ kìnnìún yóò ha ké jáde nínú ìhó rẹ̀ bí kò bá rí ohun kan mú?
5 Does a bird land in a snare where no bait has been set? Does a trap spring from the ground when it has nothing to catch?
Ǹjẹ́ ẹyẹ ṣubú sínú okùn ọdẹ lórí ilẹ̀ nígbà tí a kò dẹ okùn ọdẹ fún un? Okùn ọdẹ ha lè hù jáde lórí ilẹ̀ nígbà tí kò sí ohun tí yóò mú?
6 If a ram’s horn sounds in a city, do the people not tremble? If calamity comes to a city, has not the LORD caused it?
Nígbà tí ìpè bá dún ní ìlú, àwọn ènìyàn kò ha bẹ̀rù? Tí ewu bá wa lórí ìlú kò ha ṣe Olúwa ni ó fà á?
7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets.
Nítòótọ́ Olúwa Olódùmarè kò ṣe ohun kan láìfi èrò rẹ̀ hàn fun àwọn wòlíì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
8 The lion has roared— who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken— who will not prophesy?
Kìnnìún ti bú ramúramù ta ni kì yóò bẹ̀rù? Olúwa Olódùmarè ti sọ̀rọ̀ ta ni le ṣe àìsọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀?
9 Proclaim to the citadels of Ashdod and to the citadels of Egypt: “Assemble on the mountains of Samaria; see the great unrest in the city and the acts of oppression in her midst.”
Ẹ kéde ní ààfin Aṣdodu àti ní ààfin ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti. “Ẹ kó ara yín jọ sí orí òkè ńlá Samaria; kí ẹ sì wo ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ ńlá láàrín rẹ̀ àti ìnilára láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.”
10 “For they know not how to do right,” declares the LORD. “They store up violence and destruction in their citadels.”
“Wọn kò mọ bí wọ́n ṣe ń ṣe rere,” ni Olúwa wí, “àwọn ẹni tí ó gba àwọn ìwà ipá àti olè sí ààfin rẹ̀.”
11 Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: “An enemy will surround the land; he will pull down your strongholds and plunder your citadels.”
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “Àwọn ọ̀tá yóò pa ilẹ̀ náà run; yóò wó ibi gíga yín palẹ̀ a ó sì ba ààfin rẹ̀ jẹ́.”
12 This is what the LORD says: “As the shepherd snatches from the mouth of the lion two legs or a piece of an ear, so the Israelites dwelling in Samaria will be rescued having just the corner of a bed or the cushion of a couch.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Bí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn ti ń gbà itan méjì kúrò ní ẹnu kìnnìún tàbí ẹ̀là etí kan bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, tí ń gbé Samaria kúrò ní igun ibùsùn wọn ní orí àga ìrọ̀gbọ̀kú wọn ní Damasku.”
13 Hear and testify against the house of Jacob, declares the Lord GOD, the God of Hosts.
“Gbọ́ èyí kí o sì jẹ́rìí nípa ilé Jakọbu,” ni Olúwa wí, Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun.
14 On the day I punish Israel for their transgressions, I will visit destruction on the altars of Bethel; the horns of the altar will be cut off, and they will fall to the ground.
“Ní ọjọ́ tí mo fìyà jẹ Israẹli lórí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn, Èmi yóò pa pẹpẹ Beteli run; ìwo pẹpẹ ni a ó ké kúrò yóò sì wó lulẹ̀.
15 I will tear down the winter house along with the summer house; the houses of ivory will also perish, and the great houses will come to an end,”
Èmi yóò wó ilé òtútù lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ilé ooru; ilé tí a fi eyín erin ṣe lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ yóò ṣègbé a ó sì pa ilé ńlá náà run,” ni Olúwa wí.
