< Amos 4 >

1 Listen to this message, you well-fed cows of Bashan who live on Mount Samaria, who oppress the poor and crush the needy, and who order your husbands, “Bring us drinks!”
Слышите слово сие, юницы Васанитидския, яже в горе Самарийстей, преобидящыя убогих и попирающыя нищих, глаголющыя господем своим: подадите нам, да пием.
2 The Lord God has sworn by his holiness: Watch out! For the time is coming when they will drag you away with hooks, each one of you will be like a fish on a hook.
Клятся Господь святыми Своими, яко се, дние грядут на вы, и возмут вы во оружии, и сущих с вами ввергут в конобы подгнещаемыя огненнии губителие:
3 You will leave through breaches in the city walls, thrown out in the direction of Mount Hermon.
и извержены будете наги прямо друг друга и отвержетеся в гору Ремман, глаголет Господь.
4 Why don't you go to Bethel and sin? Go to Gilgal and add to your sins even more? Offer your sacrifices in the morning, bring your tithes after three days.
Внидосте в Вефиль и беззаконновасте, и в Галгалех умножисте еже нечествовати, и принесосте заутра требы вашя, в треденство десятины вашя:
5 Burn a thank offering of bread made with yeast, and announce what you're giving as freewill offerings so everyone will know. This is what you love to do! declares the Lord God.
и прочтоша извне закон и призваша исповедание: возвестите, яко сия возлюбиша сынове Израилевы, глаголет Господь Бог.
6 It was I who made sure you had nothing to eat in all your cities, and a lack of food wherever you lived, but still you wouldn't return to me, says the Lord.
Аз же дам вам оскомину зубом во всех градех ваших и недостаток хлеба во всех местех ваших: и не обратистеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
7 It was I who kept the rain from falling when there was still three months before harvest. One city would have rain, while another would not. One field would have rain, another would dry up from lack of rain.
И аз удержах дождь от вас прежде триех месяцев жатвы, и надождю на един град, а на другий (един) не надождю: часть едина надождится, и часть, на нюже не надождю, изсохнет:
8 People wandered from town to town looking for water, yet were still thirsty. But still you did not return to me, declares the Lord.
и соберутся два и три града во град един пити воду и не насытятся: и не обратистеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
9 I struck your many farms and vineyards with blight and mildew; locusts devoured your fig trees and olive trees. But still you did not return to me, declares the Lord.
Побих вы раждежением и златеницею: умножисте вертограды вашя, винограды вашя и смоквы вашя и масличия ваша: сия поядоша гусеницы: и ниже тако обратистеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
10 I sent a plague on you like I did in Egypt. I killed your young men in battle; I took away your horses; I made you smell the stench of dead bodies in your camps. But still you did not return to me, declares the Lord.
Послах на вы смерть на пути Египетстем, и избих оружием юношы вашя, с пленом коней твоих, и изведох во огни Полки вашя во гневе Моем: и ниже тако обратистеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
11 Some of you I destroyed as I destroyed Sodom and Gomorrah. You were like a burning stick pulled out of a fire. But still you did not return to me, declares the Lord.
Разорих вы, якоже разори Бог Содому и Гоморру, и бысте яко главня исторжена из огня: и ниже тако обратистеся ко Мне, глаголет Господь.
12 Therefore, this is what I am going to do to you, Israel. Because I am going to do this, Israel, prepare to meet your God!
Сего ради сице сотворю ти, Израилю: обаче, яко сице сотворю ти, уготовися призывати Бога твоего, Израилю.
13 Watch! The One who made the mountains, who created the winds, who reveals his thoughts to humankind, who turns the sunlight into darkness, who walks on the high places of the earth—the Lord God of power is his name!
Се, Аз утвержаяй гром и созидаяй ветр и возвещаяй в человецех Христа Своего, творяй утро и мглу и восходяй на высокая земли: Господь Бог Вседержитель имя Ему.
