Amos 5
1 Hear you this word of the Lord, even a lamentation, which I take up against you. The house of Israel is fallen; it shall no more rise.
Klausiet šo vārdu, ar ko es par jums sāku raudu dziesmu, Israēla nams!
2 The virgin of Israel has fallen upon his land; there is none that shall raise her up.
Israēla meita ir kritusi, viņa vairs necelsies, viņa ir atstāta zemē, neviena nav, kas to uzceļ.
3 Therefore thus says the Lord God; The city out of which there went forth a thousand, [in it] there shall be left a hundred, and [in that] out of which there went forth a hundred, there shall be left ten to the house of Israel.
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs Dievs: tai pilsētai, kur iziet tūkstoši, atliksies simts, un kur iziet simts, atliksies desmit Israēla namā.
4 Therefore thus says the Lord to the house of Israel, Seek you me, and you shall live.
Jo tā saka Tas Kungs uz Israēla namu: meklējiet Mani un dzīvojiet!
5 But seek not Bethel, and go not into Galgala, and cross not over to the Well of the Oath: for Galgala shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall be as that which is not.
Bet nemeklējiet Bēteli un nenāciet uz Gilgalu un nenoejat uz Bēršebu, jo Gilgala taps aizvesta un Bētele paliks par neko.
6 Seek you the Lord, and you shall live; lest the house of Joseph blaze as fire, and it devour him, and there shall be none to quench it for the house of Israel.
Meklējiet To Kungu un dzīvojiet, - lai Viņš neizšaujas Jāzepa namā kā uguns, kas to norij, un neviens to nevar dzēst Bētelē, -
7 [It is he] that executes judgement in the height [above], and he has established justice on the earth:
Jūs, kas tiesu pārvēršat par vērmelēm un stumjat taisnību pie zemes:
8 who makes all things, and changes [them], and turns darkness into the morning, and darkens the day into night: who calls for the water of the sea, and pours it out on the face of the earth: the Lord is his name:
Kas radījis Sietiņu un Orijonu un nāves ēnu pārvērš par rīta gaismu un dienu aptumšo, ka nakts metās, kas jūras ūdeni sauc un to izgāž pa zemes virsu, - Kungs ir Viņa vārds,
9 who dispenses ruin to strength, and brings distress upon the fortress.
Tam prāts ir, to spēcīgo postīt, ka posts nāk pār stipro pili.
10 They hated him that reproved in the gates, and abhorred holy speech.
Tie ienīst to, kas vārtos pārmāca, un kas patiesību runā, to tie tur par negantu.
11 Therefore because they have struck the poor with their fists, and you have received of them choice gifts; you have built polished houses, but you shall not dwell in them; you have planted desirable vineyards, but you shall not drink the wine of them.
Tādēļ ka jūs apbēdinājāt nabagu un ņemat labības dāvanu no viņa, tad jūs gan esiet uztaisījuši namus no cirstiem akmeņiem, bet jūs tanīs nedzīvosiet, jūs esat stādījuši diženus vīna dārzus, bet viņu vīnu jūs nedzersiet.
12 For I know your many transgressions, and your sins are great, trampling on the just, taking bribes, and turning aside [the judgement of] the poor in the gates.
Jo es zinu, ka jūsu pārkāpumu daudz un jūsu grēku varen daudz. Tie nospaida taisno un ņem dāvanas, un nomāc nabagus vārtos.
13 Therefore the prudent shall be silent at that time; for it is a time of evils.
Tādēļ prātīgais šinīs laikos cieš klusu, jo tie ir nikni laiki.
14 Seek good, and not evil, that you may live: and so the Lord God Almighty shall be with you, as you have said,
Meklējiet labu un ne ļaunu, lai jūs dzīvojat, un tā Tas Kungs, tas Dievs Cebaot, būs ar jums, kā jūs sakāt.
15 We have hated evil, and loved good: and restore you judgement in the gates; that the Lord God Almighty may have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.
Ienīstiet ļaunu un mīļojiet labu un spriežat vārtos tiesu, vai varbūt Tas Kungs, tas Dievs Cebaot, neapžēlosies par Jāzepa atlikušiem.
16 Therefore thus says the Lord God Almighty; In all the streets [shall be] lamentations; and in all the ways shall it be said, Woe, woe! the husbandman shall be called to mourning and lamentation, and to them that are skilled in complaining.
Tādēļ tā saka Tas Kungs, tas Dievs Cebaot, Tas Kungs: visās ielās vaimanas un visās gatvēs saka: vai, vai! Arāju sauc pie asarām, un pie vaimanām vaidētājus.
17 And [there shall be] lamentation in all the ways; because I will pass through the midst of you, says the Lord.
Un visos vīna dārzos būs vaimanas, jo Es iešu caur jūsu vidu, saka Tas Kungs.
18 Woe to you that desire the day of the Lord! what is this day of the Lord to you? whereas it is darkness, and not light.
Ak vai, tiem, kas ilgojās pēc Tā Kunga dienas! Par ko tad jums būs Tā Kunga diena? Tā būs tumsa un ne gaisma.
19 As if a man should flee from the face of a lion, and a bear should meet him; and he should spring into his house, and lean his hands upon the wall, and a serpent should bite him.
Tā kā kad vīrs bēgtu no lauvas un to sastaptu lācis! Un nāktu namā un atslietos ar roku pie sienas, un čūska viņam iedzeltu!
20 Is not the day of the Lord darkness, and not light? and is not this [day] gloom without brightness?
Vai tad Tā Kunga diena nebūs tumsa un ne gaisma, un nakts, kam nav spožuma?
21 I hate, I reject your feasts, and I will not smell [your] meat-offerings in your general assemblies.
Es ienīstu un atmetu jūsu svētkus un negribu ost jūsu sapulces.
22 Therefore if you should bring me your whole burnt sacrifices and meat-offerings, I will not accept [them]: neither will I have respect to your grand peace-offerings.
Jo kad jūs Man dedzināmos upurus upurējat līdz ar saviem ēdamiem upuriem, tad Man pie viņiem nav labs prāts, un pateicības upuri no jūsu barotiem lopiem Es negribu ieredzēt.
23 Remove from me the sound of your songs, and I will not hear the music of your instruments.
Atstājies jel no Manis ar savu dziesmu bļaušanu, un tavu kokļu skaņu Es negribu dzirdēt.
24 But let judgement roll down as water, and righteousness as an impassable torrent.
Bet lai plūst tiesa kā ūdens un taisnība kā stipra upe.
25 Have you offered to me victims and sacrifices, O house of Israel, forty years in the wilderness?
Vai četrdesmit gadus tuksnesī jūs Man esat nesuši upurus un ēdamus upurus, Israēla nams?
26 Yes, you took up the tabernacle of Moloch, and the star of your god Raephan, the images of them which you made for yourselves.
Bet jūs nesāt sava(Sikuta) ķēniņa būdu un sava Ķijuna bildi, sava dieva zvaigzni, ko jūs sev pašiem bijāt taisījuši.
27 And I will carry you away beyond Damascus, says the Lord, the Almighty God is his name.
Tādēļ Es jūs aizvedīšu tālu viņpus Damaskus, saka Tas Kungs, kam vārds ir Dievs Cebaot.
