Amos 5
1 Hear this word, O house of Israel, this lamentation I take up against you:
Denggenyo daytoy a sao nga idungdung-awko kadakayo, balay ti Israel.
2 “Fallen is Virgin Israel, never to rise again. She lies abandoned on her land, with no one to raise her up.”
Natuangen ti birhen nga Israel; saanto isuna a bumangonen; nabaybay-an isuna iti mismo a dagana; awan iti mangbangon kenkuana.
3 This is what the Lord GOD says: “The city that marches out a thousand strong will only see a hundred return, and the one that marches out a hundred strong will have but ten left in the house of Israel.”
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: “Ti siudad a rimmuar nga addaan iti sangaribo ket sangagasutto laeng ti mabati ken ti rimmuar nga addaan iti sangagasut ket sangapulonto laeng ti mabati iti balay ti Israel.”
4 For this is what the LORD says to the house of Israel: “Seek Me and live!
Gapu ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti balay ti Israel: “Sapulendak ket agbiagkayo!
5 Do not seek Bethel or go to Gilgal; do not journey to Beersheba, for Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will come to nothing.
Saanyo a sapulen ti Betel; wenno sumrek iti Gilgal; saankayo a mapan iti Beerseba. Gapu ta awan duadua a maitalawto a kas balud ti Gilgal, ket agladingitto ti Betel.
6 Seek the LORD and live, or He will sweep like fire through the house of Joseph; it will devour everything, with no one at Bethel to extinguish it.
Sapulenyo ni Yahweh ket agbiagkayo, Amangan no sumgiab isuna a kas apuy iti balay ni Jose. Mangibusto daytoy, ket awanto iti mangiddep iti daytoy iti Betel.
7 There are those who turn justice into wormwood and cast righteousness to the ground.
Pagbalbalinen dagidiay a tattao a nasaem a banag ti hustisia ket ibelbellengda iti daga ti kinalinteg!”
8 He who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns darkness into dawn and darkens day into night, who summons the waters of the sea and pours them over the face of the earth— the LORD is His name—
Inaramid ti Dios ti Pleyades ken Orion; pagbalbalinenna nga agsapa ti sipnget; pagbalbalinenna a rabii ti aldaw ken ay-ayabanna ti danum iti baybay ket ibuybuyatna iti rabaw ti daga. Yahweh ti naganna!
9 He flashes destruction on the strong, so that fury comes upon the stronghold.
Iiyegna ti apagdarikmat a pannakadadael kadagiti nabileg tapno dumteng ti pannakadadael kadagiti sarikedked.
10 There are those who hate the one who reproves in the gate and despise him who speaks with integrity.
Kabusbusorda ti siasinoman a mangilinlinteg kadakuada sadiay ruangan ti siudad, ken gurguraenda ti siasinoman nga agibagbaga iti pudno.
11 Therefore, because you trample on the poor and exact from him a tax of grain, you will never live in the stone houses you have built; you will never drink the wine from the lush vineyards you have planted.
Gapu ta ibaddebaddekyo dagiti marigrigat ken al-alaenyo dagiti trigoda, uray man no nagpatakderkayo kadagiti balay a naaramid iti bato, saankayonto nga agnaed sadiay. Nagpipintas ti kaubasanyo ngem saanyonto a mainum ti arak a naggapu kadagitoy.
12 For I know that your transgressions are many and your sins are numerous. You oppress the righteous by taking bribes; you deprive the poor of justice in the gate.
Gapu ta ammok ti kaadu dagiti panagsalungasingyo ken ti kadakkel dagiti basbasolyo— dakayo a mangparparigat ti nalinteg, umaw-awat iti pasuksok ken mangiwalwalin kadagiti agkasapulan sadiay ruangan ti siudad.
13 Therefore, the prudent keep silent in such times, for the days are evil.
Isu nga agulimek ti siasinoman a nanakman iti kasta a tiempo, ta dayta ket tiempo ti kinadakes.
14 Seek good, not evil, so that you may live. And the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be with you, as you have claimed.
Sapulenyo ti naimbag, saan a ti dakes tapno agbiagkayo. Ket ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin ket addanto kadakayo a kas kunkunayo.
15 Hate evil and love good; establish justice in the gate. Perhaps the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.”
Guraenyo ti dakes, ayatenyo ti naimbag, ipasdekyo ti hustisia idiay ruangan iti siudad. Nalabit a maasianto ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin, kadagiti nabati a kaputotan ni Jose.
16 Therefore this is what the LORD, the God of Hosts, the Lord, says: “There will be wailing in all the public squares and cries of ‘Alas! Alas!’ in all the streets. The farmer will be summoned to mourn, and the mourners to wail.
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin: “Addanto panagdung-aw iti amin a plasa, ket ibagadanto iti amin a kalsada, 'Asi pay! Asi pay! Ayabandanto dagiti mannalon nga agdung-aw ken dagiti dumudung-aw tapno agdung-aw.
17 There will be wailing in all the vineyards, for I will pass through your midst,”
Addanto iti panagdung-aw iti amin a kaubasan ta lumabasakto iti tengngayo,” kuna ni Yahweh.
18 Woe to you who long for the Day of the LORD! What will the Day of the LORD be for you? It will be darkness and not light.
Kakaasikayo a mangtartarigagay ti aldaw ni Yahweh! Apay a tartarigagayanyo ti aldaw ni Yahweh? Sipngetto dayta nga aldaw, saan a lawag.
19 It will be like a man who flees from a lion, only to encounter a bear, or who enters his house and rests his hand against the wall, only to be bitten by a snake.
Kas iti tao nga itartarayana ti leon ket adda ti oso a masabatna, wenno simrek iti balay, insadagna ti imana iti diding ket kinagat isuna iti uleg.
20 Will not the Day of the LORD be darkness and not light, even gloom with no brightness in it?
Saankadi a sipngetto ti aldaw ni Yahweh, saan a lawag? Nalidem ken nasipnget?
21 “I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.
“Kagurgurak ken karurodko dagiti piestayo, saanak a maragragsakan kadagiti napasnek a panaguummongyo.
22 Even though you offer Me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; for your peace offerings of fattened cattle I will have no regard.
Uray man no idatonyo kaniak dagiti daton a maipuor ken dagiti sagut a bukbukkel, saankonto nga awaten dagitoy, wenno taliawen dagiti pinalukmegyo nga ayup nga idatagyo kas daton a pannakilangen.
23 Take away from Me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.
Isardengyo ti ariwawa dagiti kantayo; saanko a denggen ti uni dagiti arpayo.
24 But let justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
Palubosanyo ketdi nga agayus ti hustisia a kas iti danum, ken ti kinalinteg a kas iti kankanayon nga agay-ayus a karayan.
25 Did you bring Me sacrifices and offerings forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?
Inyegandak kadi kadagiti sakripisio ken daton iti let-ang bayat iti uppat a pulo a tawen, balay ti Israel?
26 You have taken along Sakkuth your king and Kaiwan your star god, the idols you made for yourselves.
Itag-ayonto ni Sakkut a kas ariyo ken ni Kaiwan a bituen a diosyo—dagiti didiosen nga inaramidyo para kadagiti bagbagiyo.
27 Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose name is the God of Hosts.
Ngarud, italawkayonto a kas balud iti labes ti Damasco,” kuna ni Yahweh, Dios a mannakabalin amin ti naganna.
