Amos 6
1 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion and that are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the renowned of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come.
Malè a sila ki alèz nan Sion yo, e ak sila ki santi yo ansekirite nan mòn Samarie yo, mesye ki distenge pami meyè nan nasyon yo, a sila lakay Israël konn vini yo.
2 Pass unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go to Hamath the great; and go down to Gath of the Philistines: are they better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
Ale janbe kote Calné pou gade. Soti la rive Hamath Gran an, pou desann kote Gath de Filisten yo. Èske yo pi bon ke wayòm sila yo? Èske teritwa pa yo a pi gran pase pa nou an?
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
Malè a nou ki konn ranvoye jou malè! Ka pote sant vyolans lan vin pi pre!
4 that lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves from the midst of the stall;
K ap repoze sou kabann fèt ak livwa yo, k ap gaye kò yo sou gwo sofa yo, e k ap manje jenn mouton ki soti nan pak la, ak jenn bèf ki soti nan mitan tonèl bèt la;
5 that chant to the sound of the lute, [and] invent them instruments of music, like David;
sila ki enpwovize ak son ap la, ki envante lenstriman mizik yo menm jan ak David;
6 that drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments; but are not grieved for the breach of Joseph.
Sila k ap bwè diven nan kalbas sakrifis yo pandan yo onksyone kò yo ak pi bon lwil yo, malgre sa, yo pa kriye pou Joseph, ki fin devaste nèt la.
7 Therefore shall they now go captive, with the first that go captive, and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.
Akoz sa, yo va antre an egzil nan tèt a egzile yo. Banbòch a sanzave yo va sispann.
8 The Lord Jehovah hath sworn by himself, saith Jehovah, the God of hosts, I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will deliver up the city with all that is therein.
Senyè BONDYE a te sèmante pa Li menm, SENYÈ Bondye dèzame yo te deklare: “Mwen rayi awogans a Jacob la, e Mwen deteste sitadèl li yo. Pou sa, Mwen va livre tout vil la ak tout sa ki ladann.”
9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
Epi li va vin rive ke si genyen dizòm ki rete nan yon kay, yo va mouri.
10 And a man's uncle, and he that should burn him, shall take him up to bring out the bones from the house, and shall say unto him that is in the inner parts of the house, Is there yet [any] with thee? and he shall say, None. And he will say, Silence! for we may not make mention of Jehovah's name.
Alò tonton a youn, oswa mèt mòg k ap antere l a va leve pote zo li sòti nan kay la. Konsa, li va mande a sila ki nan pati pi anndan nan kay la: “Èske gen lòt moun avèk ou?” Epi sila a va reponn: “Nanpwen moun”. Konsa li va reponn: “Rete an silans. Paske non a SENYÈ a pa dwe nonmen menm.”
11 For behold, Jehovah commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
“Paske gade byen, SENYÈ a pral kòmande pou gwo lakay la vin kraze nèt, e ti kay la an ti mòso.
12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [men] plough [thereon] with oxen? For ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood,
Èske cheval konn kouri sou wòch, oswa èske yo ka charye wòch yo ak bèf? Konsa, nou te fè Lajistis vin tounen pwazon e fwi ladwati vin anmè nèt.
13 — ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say, Have we not taken to us power by our own strength?
Nou menm k ap rejwi nan yon bagay ki pa anyen, epi k ap di: ‘Èske se pa ak pwòp fòs kouraj nou nou rive pran kòn nan pou nou?’
14 For behold, O house of Israel, saith Jehovah the God of hosts, I will raise up against you a nation; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hamath unto the torrent of the Arabah.
Paske gade byen, Mwen pral leve yon nasyon kont nou, O lakay Israël,” deklare SENYÈ Bondye dèzame yo; “e yo va aflije nou soti nan antre Hamath pou rive jis nan flèv Araba a.”
