Amos 1
1 The words of Amos which came [to him] in Accarim out of Thecue, which he saw concerning Jerusalem, in the days of Ozias king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
Palabras de Amós, de los pastores de Tecoa, (o sea), visiones que tuvo en orden a Israel, en los días de Ocías, rey de Judá, y en los días de Jeroboam, hijo de Joás, rey de Israel; dos años antes del terremoto.
2 And he said, The Lord has spoken out of Sion, and has uttered his voice out of Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds have mourned, and the top of Carmel is dried up.
Dijo: “Ruge Yahvé desde Sión, desde Jerusalén hace oír su voz; estarán de luto los pastos de los pastores, y se secará la cumbre del Carmelo.”
3 And the Lord said, For three sins of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away from it; because they sawed with iron saws the women with child of the Galaadites.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Damasco, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque trillaron a Galaad con trillos de hierro,
4 And I will send a fire on the house of Azael, and it shall devour the foundations of the son of Ader.
enviaré fuego contra la casa de Hazael, que consumirá los palacios de Benhadad,
5 And I will break to pieces the bars of Damascus, and will destroy the inhabitants out of the plain of On, and will cut in pieces a tribe out of the men of Charrhan: and the famous people of Syria shall be led captive, saith the Lord.
quebraré los cerrojos de Damasco, extirparé del valle de Avén a los habitantes y de Bet-Edén a aquel que empuña el cetro; y el pueblo de Siria irá cautivo a Kir”, dice Yahvé.
6 Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away from them; because they took prisoners the captivity of Solomon, to shut [them] up into Idumea.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Gaza, por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque se llevaron muchedumbres de cautivos para entregarlos a Edom,
7 And I will send forth a fire on the walls of Gaza, and it shall devour its foundations.
enviaré fuego contra los muros de Gaza, que devorará sus palacios;
8 And I will destroy the inhabitants out of Azotus, and a tribe shall be cut off from Ascalon, and I will stretch out my hand upon Accaron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord.
exterminaré de Azoto a los habitantes, y de Ascalón al que empuña el cetro; volveré mi mano contra Acarón, y perecerá el resto de los filisteos”, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
9 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not turn away from it; because they shut up the prisoners of Solomon into Idumea, and remembered not the covenant of brethren.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Tiro, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque entregaron a Edom muchedumbres de cautivos, y no se acordaron de la fraternal alianza,
10 And I will send forth a fire on the walls of Tyre, and it shall devour the foundations of it.
enviaré fuego contra los muros de Tiro, que devorará sus palacios.”
11 Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of Idumea, and for four, I will not turn away from them; because they pursued their brother with the sword, and destroyed the mother upon the earth, and summoned up his anger for a testimony, and kept up his fury to the end.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Idumea, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque persiguió, espada en mano, a su hermano, ahogando la compasión, y porque en su ira no dejó de destrozar, guardando para siempre su rencor,
12 And I will send forth a fire upon Thaman, and it shall devour the foundations of her walls.
enviaré fuego contra Temán, que devorará los palacios de Bosra.”
13 Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away from him; because they ripped up the women with child of the Galaadites, that they might widen their coasts.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de los ammonitas, y por cuatro, no les doy perdón: Porque para extender sus términos rajaron a las encintas de Galaad,
14 And I will kindle a fire on the walls of Rabbath, and it shall devour her foundations with shouting in the day of war, and she shall be shaken in the days of her destruction:
encenderé un fuego sobre los muros de Rabbá, que devorará sus palacios, entre los alaridos del día de la batalla, en medio del torbellino en el día de la tempestad;
15 and her kings shall go into captivity, their priests and their rulers together, saith the Lord.
y su rey irá al cautiverio, él y sus príncipes juntamente”, dice Yahvé.
