< Amos 1 >

1 The words of Amos, who was among the shepherds of Tekoa, which he saw about Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
Àwọn ọ̀rọ̀ Amosi, ọ̀kan lára àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn Tekoa; ohun tí o rí nípa Israẹli ní ọdún méjì ṣáájú ilẹ̀-rírì, nígbà tí Ussiah ọba Juda àti Jeroboamu ọmọ Jehoaṣi jẹ́ ọba ní ilẹ̀ Israẹli.
2 And he said: The Lord will roar from Zion, and from Jerusalem he will utter his voice. And the beautiful pastures have mourned, and the top of Carmel has become dry.
Ó wí pé, “Olúwa yóò bú jáde láti Sioni, ohùn rẹ̀ yóò sì sán bí àrá láti Jerusalẹmu wá; ibùgbé àwọn olùṣọ́-àgùntàn yóò sì ṣọ̀fọ̀, orí òkè Karmeli yóò sì rọ.”
3 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Damascus, and for four, I will not convert it, in so far as they have threshed Gilead into iron wagons.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta tí Damasku, àní fún mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Nítorí wọn fi ohun èlò ìpakà pa Gileadi. Pẹ̀lú ohun èlò irin tí ó ní eyín mímú,
4 And I will send fire onto the house of Hazael, and it will devour the houses of Ben-hadad.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí ilé Hasaeli, èyí ti yóò jó àwọn ààfin Beni-Hadadi run.
5 And I will shatter the crowbar of Damascus, and I will destroy the inhabitants of the camp of the idol and the holder of the scepter of the house of pleasure; and the people of Syria will be transferred to Cyrene, says the Lord.
Èmi yóò ṣẹ́ ọ̀pá ìdábùú Damasku; Èmi yóò sì pa ọba tí ó wà ní àfonífojì Afeni run àti ẹni tí ó di ọ̀pá aládé mú ní Beti-Edeni. Àwọn ará a Aramu yóò lọ sí ìgbèkùn sí Kiri,” ni Olúwa wí.
6 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Gaza, and for four, I will not convert it, in so far as they have carried out an excellent captivity, so as to enclose them in Idumea.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta Gasa, àní nítorí mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Gẹ́gẹ́ bí í oníṣòwò ẹrú, ó kó gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn mi ní ìgbèkùn. Ó sì tà wọ́n fún Edomu,
7 And I will send a fire onto the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its buildings.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí ara odi Gasa tí yóò jó gbogbo ààfin rẹ̀ run.
8 And I will destroy the inhabitant from Ashdod, and the holder of the scepter of Ashkelon. And I will turn my hand against Ekron, and the remainder of the Philistines will perish, says the Lord God.
Èmi yóò ké àwọn olùgbé Aṣdodu kúrò, ti ẹni tí ó di ọ̀pá aládé ní Aṣkeloni mú. Èmi yóò yí ọwọ́ mi sí Ekroni títí tí ìyókù Filistini yóò fi ṣègbé,” ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
9 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Tyre, and for four, I will not convert it, in so far as they have completed an excellent captivity in Idumea and have not considered the bond among brothers.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta ti Tire àní nítorí mẹ́rin, Èmi kì yóò yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Nítorí wọ́n ta gbogbo àwọn ènìyàn tí ó wà ní ìgbèkùn fún Edomu. Wọn kò sì náání májẹ̀mú ọbàkan,
10 And I will send a fire onto the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its buildings.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí ara odi Tire, tí yóò jó gbogbo àwọn ààfin rẹ̀ run.”
11 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Edom, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has been pursuing his brother with the sword and has outraged his brother’s compassion, and he has gone beyond his anger and has held onto his indignation until the end.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta tí Edomu, àní nítorí mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Nítorí òhun fi idà lépa arákùnrin rẹ̀, Ó sì gbé gbogbo àánú sọnù, ìbínú rẹ̀ sì ń faniya títí, ó sì pa ìbínú rẹ̀ bí èéfín mọ́,
12 I will send a fire onto Teman, and it will devour the buildings of Bozrah.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí orí Temani, tí yóò jó gbogbo ààfin Bosra run.”
13 Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of the sons of Ammon, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has cut up the pregnant women of Gilead, so as to expand his limits.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta ti Ammoni, àní mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Nítorí wọn ti la inú àwọn aboyún Gileadi kí wọ́n ba à lè fẹ ilẹ̀ wọn sẹ́yìn.
14 And I will ignite a fire on the wall of Rabbah. And it will devour its buildings, with wailing on the day of war, and with a whirlwind on the day of commotion.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí ara odi Rabba èyí tí yóò jó àwọn ààfin rẹ̀ run pẹ̀lú ìhó ayọ̀ ní ọjọ́ ogun, pẹ̀lú ìjì líle ni ọjọ́ àjà.
15 And Melchom will go into captivity, he and his leaders together, says the Lord.
Ọba wọn yóò sì lọ sí ìgbèkùn, òun àti àwọn ọmọ-aládé rẹ̀ lápapọ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
