< Amos 4 >
1 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, that oppress the poor, that crush the needy, that say to their lords, Bring, and let us drink:
Èujte ovu rijeè, krave Vasanske, koje ste u gori Samarijskoj, koje krivo èinite ubogima i satirete siromahe, koje govorite gospodarima svojim: donesite da pijemo.
2 the Lord Jehovah hath sworn by his holiness, that behold, days shall come upon you, when he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fish-hooks;
Zakle se Gospod Gospod svetošæu svojom da æe vam evo doæi dani, te æe vas izvlaèiti kukama, i ostatak vaš udicama ribarskim.
3 and ye shall go out by the breaches, every one straight before her, and ye shall be cast out to Harmon, saith Jehovah.
I kroz prolome æete ižljesti, svaka na prema se, i pobacaæete što bude u dvorovima, govori Gospod.
4 Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices in the morning, your tithes every three days,
Idite u Vetilj, i èinite bezakonje, u Galgalu množite bezakonje svoje, i prinosite svako jutro žrtve svoje, treæe godine desetke svoje;
5 and burn a thank-offering with leaven, and proclaim, publish, voluntary offerings: for this pleaseth you, children of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah.
I palite žrtvu zahvalnu od hljeba kiseloga, i oglasite žrtve dragovoljne i razglasite, jer vam je tako milo, sinovi Izrailjevi, govori Gospod Gospod.
6 And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places; yet ye have not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
I zato vam ja dadoh da su vam èisti zubi po svijem gradovima vašim i da nema hljeba nigdje po svijem mjestima vašim; ali se ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
7 And I also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece [of land] was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
A ja vam ustegoh dažd, kad još tri mjeseca bijahu do žetve, i pustih dažd na jedan grad, a na drugi grad ne pustih dažda, jedan se kraj nakvasi, a drugi kraj, na koji ne daždje, posuši se.
8 And two, three, cities wandered unto one city, to drink water, and were not satisfied: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
Tako dva i tri grada iðahu u jedan grad da piju vode, i ne mogahu se napiti; ipak se ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew; the palmer-worm hath devoured the multitude of your gardens, and your vineyards, and your fig-trees and your olive-trees: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
Bih vas sušom i medljikom; gusjenice izjedoše obilje u vrtovima vašim i u vinogradima vašim i na smokvama vašim i na maslinama vašim; ipak se ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
10 I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, taking away captive your horses; and I made the stench of your camps to come up, even into your nostrils: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
Poslah u vas pomor kao u Misir, pobih maèem mladiæe vaše i odvedoh konje vaše, i uèinih te se podizaše smrad iz okola vašega i u nozdrve vaše; ipak se ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
11 I have overthrown among you, like God's overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a brand plucked out of the burning; yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
Zatirah vas kao što Gospod zatr Sodom i Gomor, i bijaste kao glavnja istrgnuta iz ognja; ipak se ne obratiste k meni, govori Gospod.
12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
Zato æu ti tako uèiniti, Izrailju; i što æu ti tako uèiniti, pripravi se, Izrailju, da sreteš Boga svojega.
13 For behold, he who formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, who maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, — Jehovah, the God of hosts, is his name.
Jer eto onoga koji je sazdao gore i koji je stvorio vjetar i javlja èovjeku što misli, èini od zore tamu, i hodi po visinama zemaljskim; ime mu je Gospod Bog nad vojskama.
