Amos 5
1 Hear ye this word, which I take up concerning you for a lamentation. The house of Israel is fallen, and it shall rise no more.
Mwet Israel, porongo on in asor soko su nga onkakin keiwos:
2 The virgin of Israel is cast down upon her land, there is none to raise her up.
Israel el oana sie mutan fusr su anwuki oan infohk uh, Su ac fah tiana sifilpa tukakek! Sisilana el, oan fin fohk uh, Ac wangin mwet in sraklalak.
3 For thus saith the Lord God: The city, out of which came forth a thousand, there shall be left in it a hundred: and out of which there came a hundred, there shall be left in it ten, in the house of Israel.
LEUM GOD Fulat El fahk, “Sie siti in Israel supwala sie tausin mwet mweun, ac mwet siofok na painmoul foloko. Ac sie pac siti supwala mwet mweun siofok, ac mwet singoul na foloko.”
4 For thus saith the Lord to the house of Israel: Seek ye me, and you shall live.
LEUM GOD El fahk nu sin mwet Israel, “Fahsru nu yuruk, ac kowos fah moul.
5 But seek not Bethel, and go not into Galgal, neither shall you pass over to Bersabee: for Galgal shall go into captivity, and Bethel shall be unprofitable.
Nikmet som nu Beersheba in alu. Nimet srike in sukyu in acn Bethel — Bethel ac fah wanginla. Nikmet som nu Gilgal-mwet we uh ac fah som nu in sruoh.”
6 Seek ye the Lord, and live: lest the house of Joseph be burnt with fire, and it shall devour, and there shall be none to quench Bethel.
Suk LEUM GOD, ac kowos fah moul. Kowos fin tia sokol, El fah putati oana sie e nu fin mwet Israel. E sac fah esukak mwet in Bethel, ac wangin sie fah ku in konela.
7 You that turn judgment into wormwood, and forsake justice in the land,
We nu suwos su furokla ma pwaye, ac aklalfonye mwet in eisla ma lalos!
8 Seek him that maketh Arcturus, and Orion, and that turneth darkness into morning, and that changeth day into night: that calleth the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name.
LEUM GOD El orala itu uh, El orala Nasren ac oakiya acn sin itu saya. El ekulla lohsr lun fong nu ke kalem lun len, Ac ekulla len nu ke fong. El eis kof liki fin meoa uh Ac okoala nu fin faclu. Inel pa LEUM GOD.
9 He that with a smile bringeth destruction upon the strong, and waste upon the mighty.
El uniya mwet ku ac kunausla pot ku lalos.
10 They have hated him that rebuketh in the gate: and have abhorred him that speaketh perfectly.
Kowos srunga kutena mwet su lain orekma sesuwos ac kaskas pwaye ke pacl in nununku.
11 Therefore because you robbed the poor, and took the choice prey from him: you shall build houses with square stone, and shall not dwell in them: you shall plant most delightful vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.
Kowos akkeokye mwet sukasrup ac pisrala mwe mongo nalos. Ke ma inge kowos ac fah tia muta in lohm wowo kowos musaela ke eot tufahl, ku nim wain liki ima in grape kato su kowos yukwiya.
12 Because I know your manifold crimes, and your grievous sins: enemies of the just, taking bribes, and oppressing the poor in the gate.
Nga etu upaiyen ma koluk lowos, ac pusiyen pacl kowos kunausla ma sap uh. Kowos akkeokye mwet wo, kowos eis molin eyeinse, ac ke pacl in nununku kowos ikol tuh suwohs lun mwet sukasrup in tia fwackyuk.
13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence at that time, for it is an evil time.
Ke pacl koluk ouinge uh, el su oasr kalem yoro el ac mislana ac tia fahk ma el nunku.
14 Seek ye good, and not evil, that you may live: and the Lord the God of hosts will be with you, as you have said.
Suk in oru ma suwohs ac tia ma koluk, tuh kowos in ku in moul. Na LEUM GOD Kulana El fah wi kowos, oana ke kowos fahk.
15 Hate evil, and love good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be the Lord the God of hosts may have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.
Srunga ma koluk, ac lungse ma wo, ac akkeye tuh ma suwohs in sikyak ke pacl in nununku. Sahp LEUM GOD El ac fah pakoten nu sin mwet na pu su painmoulla in mutunfacl se inge.
16 Therefore thus saith the Lord the God of hosts the sovereign Lord: In every street there shall be wailing: and in all places that are without, they shall say: Alas, alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skillful in lamentation to lament.
Ouinge LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El fahk, “Ac fah oasr pusren tung mwemelil inkanek in siti uh. Ac fah solsolme mwet orekma in ima elos in wi mwet ma oasr moul nu se in tung, tuh elos kewa in tungi mas misa.
17 And in all vineyards there shall be wailing: because I will pass through in the midst of thee, saith the Lord.
Ac fah oasr pac pusren tung ac mwemelil ke ima in grape nukewa. Ma inge nukewa ac fah sikyak mweyen nga ac tuku kalyei kowos.” LEUM GOD pa fahk ma inge.
18 Woe to them that desire the day of the Lord: to what end is it for you? the day of the Lord is darkness, and not light.
Ac mau fuka upaiya nu suwos su salka len lun LEUM GOD! Mea ac wo nu suwos ke len sac? Ac fah mau sie len na lohsr ac tia kalem.
19 As if a man should flee from the face of a lion, and a bear should meet him: or enter into the house, and lean with his hand upon the wall, and a serpent should bite him.
Ac fah mau oana sie mwet su kaingkin soko lion twe sun bear soko! Ku oana sie mwet su utyak tari nu in lohm sel ac siungya pesinka uh, a wet pwasin soko ngalsilya!
20 Shall not the day of the Lord be darkness, and not light: and obscurity, and no brightness in it?
Len lun LEUM GOD ac fah len na lohsr matoltol, ac wangin kutu srisrik kalem kac.
21 I hate, and have rejected your festivities: and I will not receive the odour of your assemblies.
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Nga srunga kufwa kowos oru ke pacl in alu lowos. Nga tia kuhnkuni!
22 And if you offer me holocausts, and your gifts, I will not receive them: neither will I regard the vows of your fat beasts.
Kowos fin use mwe kisa firir ac mwe kisa wheat lowos nu sik, nga ac fah tia eis. Nga fah tia pac engan ke kosro fact ma kowos kisakin nu sik.
23 Take away from me the tumult of thy songs: and I will not hear the canticles of thy harp.
Tulokinya on oraru lowos ingan. Nga tia lungse lohng pusren mwe on nutuwos an.
24 But judgment shall be revealed as water, and justice as a mighty torrent.
A lela nununku suwohs in asrla oana sie unon in kof, ac ma suwoswos in soror oana soko infacl su tia ku in mihnla.
25 Did you offer victims and sacrifices to me in the desert for forty years, O house of Israel?
“Mwet Israel, ke nga tuh pwen kowos sasla yen mwesis ke lusen yac angngaul, kowos tuh tiana enenu in use mwe kisa ku mwe sang nu sik.
26 But you carried a tabernacle for your Moloch, and the image of your idols, the star of your god, which you made to yourselves.
Tusruktu inge, ke sripen kowos alu nu ke ma sruloala pangpang Sakkuth ac Kaiwan, kowos fah enenu in us ma sruloala lowos ingan
27 And I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the Lord, the God of hosts is his name.
ke nga ac eiskowosyang nu in sruoh in sie facl alukela Damascus.” Pa inge kas lun LEUM GOD, su pangpang God Kulana.
