Amos 6
1 Woe to you who have been wealthy in Zion, and to you who have confidence in the mountain of Samaria: aristocrats, heads of the people, who advance with a retinue into the house of Israel.
Teško bezbrižnima u Sionu i onima koji su bez straha u gori Samarijskoj, koji su na glasu izmeðu poglavica narodima, ka kojima dolazi dom Izrailjev.
2 Cross over to Calneh and see, and go from there into Hamath the great, and descend into Gath of the Philistines, and to the best kingdoms of these, if their limits are wider than your limits.
Proðite u Halnu i vidite, i odande idite u veliki Emat, poslije siðite u Gat Filistejski; je li koje carstvo bolje od ovijeh? jesu li im meðe prostranije od vaših meða?
3 You have been set aside for the day of disaster, and you approach the throne of iniquity.
Teško vama koji mislite da je daleko zli dan, a primièete stolicu na kojoj je nasilje;
4 You sleep on beds of ivory, and you are lustful on your couches. You devour lambs from the flock and calves from the midst of the herd.
Koji liježete na odrima od slonove kosti i pružate se na posteljama svojim, i jedete jaganjce iz stada i teoce ugojene;
5 You sing to the sound of stringed instruments; they consider themselves to have the musical abilities of David.
Koji pjevate uza psaltire, i izmišljate sprave muzièke kao David;
6 You drink wine in bowls, and you anoint with the best ointments; and they suffer nothing over the grief of Joseph.
Koji pijete vino velikim èašama, i mažete se skupocjenijem mirisima, a ne marite za polom Josifov.
7 Because of this, now they will depart at the head of those who go into captivity; and the faction of the lustful will be removed.
Zato æe sada otiæi u ropstvo meðu prvima koji æe otiæi u ropstvo, i prestaæe radost onijeh koji se goste.
8 The Lord God has sworn by his own soul, the Lord God of hosts says: I detest the arrogance of Jacob, and I hate his houses, and I will hand over the city with its inhabitants.
Zakle se Gospod Gospod sobom, govori Gospod Bog nad vojskama: ja se gadim na ponos Jakovljev i mrzim na dvorove njegove; zato æu predati grad i sve što je u njemu.
9 For if there were ten men remaining in one house, even they will die.
I ako deset ljudi ostane u jednoj kuæi, umrijeæe.
10 And his closest relative will steal him away and will burn him, so that he may carry the bones out of the house. And he will say to him that is in the inner most rooms of the house, “Now is there any left that still belongs to you?” And he will answer, “It is finished.” And he will say to him, “Be silent and do not call to mind the name of the Lord.”
I kad uzme koga stric mu ili koji æe ga spaliti da iznese kosti njegove iz kuæe, reæi æe onome koji bude u kutu u kuæi: ima li jošte ko kod tebe? A on æe reæi: nema nikoga. A on æe reæi: muèi; jer ne pominjaše imena Gospodnjega.
11 For behold, the Lord has commanded, and he will strike the greater house with catastrophes, and the lesser house with divisions.
Jer evo, Gospod zapovijeda i udariæe dom veliki da se razvali i mali dom da popuca.
12 Can horses gallop across rocks, or is anyone able to plough with gazelles? For you have turned judgment into bitterness and the fruit of justice into wormwood.
Trèe li konji po stijeni i ore li se volovima? jer vi pretvoriste sud u žuè, i plod od pravde u pelen.
13 You rejoice in emptiness. You say, “Have we not, by our own strength, taken horns for ourselves?”
Vi se radujete onome što nije ništa, i govorite: nijesmo li svojom snagom dobili rogove?
14 For behold, house of Israel, I will raise up a people over you, says the Lord God of hosts, and they will crush you from the entrance of Hamath all the way to the burning of the desert.
Jer, gle, ja æu podignuti na vas, dome Izrailjev, govori Gospod Bog nad vojskama, narod, koji æe vas pritijesniti od ulaska u Emat do potoka u pustinji.
