Amos 8
1 These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold a hook to draw down the fruit.
PENEIA i hoike mai ai o Iehova ka Haku ia'u: aia hoi, he hinai hua oo.
2 And he said: What seest thou, Amos? And I said: A hook to draw down fruit. And the Lord said to me: The end is come upon my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more.
A i mai la ia, Heaha kau e ike nei, e Amosa? I aku la au, He hinai hua oo. Alaila, i mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ua hiki mai ka hope maluna o kuu poe kanaka o ka Iseraela; Aole au e hele hou ae mai o lakou aku.
3 And the hinges of the temple shall screak in that day, saith the Lord God: many shall die: silence shall be cast in every place.
A e lilo na mele o ka halealii i auwe ana ia la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku: A he nui auanei na kupapau ma na wahi a pau: a e hoolei malu aku ia lakou.
4 Hear this, you that crush the poor, and make the needy of the land to fail,
E hoolohe i keia, e oukou ka mea e moni i ka poe ilihune, a hoopau i ka poe nele o ka aina,
5 Saying: When will the month be over, and we shall sell our wares: and the sabbath, and we shall open the corn: that we may lessen the measure, and increase the sicle, and may convey in deceitful balances,
I ka i ana ae, Ahea la e pau ai ka mahina hou, i kuai aku ai kakou i ka ai? A me ka Sabati, i wehe ae ai kakou i ka hua ai, e houuku ana i ka epa, A e hoomahuahua ana i ke sekela, a e hoololi ana i na mea kaupaona hoopunipuni?
6 That we may possess the needy for money, and the poor for a pair of shoes, and may sell the refuse of the corn?
I kuai aku ai kakou i ka poe ilihune no ke kala, A i ka poe nele no ka paa kamaa; a i kuai aku ai i ka hua palaoa ino?
7 The Lord hath sworn against the pride of Jacob: surely I will never forget all their works.
Ua hoohiki o Iehova ma ka nani o Iakoba, Aole loa au e hoopoina i ka lakou mau hana a pau.
8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein: and rise up altogether as a river, and be cast out, and run down as the river of Egypt?
Aole anei e haalulu ka aina no keia mea, a e auwe na mea a pau e noho ana iloko ona? A e pii ae ia me he muliwai la a puni ona; A e laweia'ku ia, a e halana ae ia e like me ka muliwai o Aigupita.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that the sun shall go down at midday, and I will make the earth dark in the day of light:
A i kela la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E hoonapoo iho au i ka la i ke awakea, a e hoopouli iho au i ka aina i ka la laelae.
10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation: and I will bring up sackcloth upon every back of yours, and baldness upon every head: and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the latter end thereof as a bitter day.
A e hoolilo au i ka oukou mau ahaaina i auwe ana, A i ko oukou mau mele i kanikau ana; A e lawe mai au i ke kapa ino maluna o na puhaka a pau, A me ka ohule maluna o na poo a pau; A e hoohalike au ia mea me ka auwe ana no ke keiki kamakahi, A i ka hope o ia mea e like me ka la awaawa.
11 Behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will send forth a famine into the land: not a famine of bread, nor a thirst of water, but of hearing the word of the Lord.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E lawe mai ai au i ka wi maluna o ka aina, aole o ka wi i ka ai, aole o ka make inu i ka wai, Aka, o ka lohe i ka olelo a Iehova.
12 And they shall move from sea to sea, and from the north to the east: they shall go about seeking the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.
A e auwana lakou mai ke kai a hiki i ke kai, a mai ke kukulu akau, a ka hikina, E holo lakou ma o a ma o, e imi ana i ka olelo a Iehova, aole e loaa.
13 In that day the fair virgins, and the young men shall faint for thirst.
I kela la. e maule na wahine puupaa maikai, a me na kanaka opio no ka makewai.
14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say: Thy God, O Dan, liveth: and the way of Bersabee liveth: and they shall fall, and shall rise no more.
O ka poe e hoohiki ma ka hewa o Samaria, a i iho, E ola ana kou Akua, e Dana; a e ola ana ka aoao o Beereseba; E haule no hoi lakou, aole loa e ala hou ae.
