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!”
Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ yìí, ẹ̀yin màlúù Baṣani lórí òkè Samaria, ẹ̀yin obìnrin tí ó ń ni tálákà lára, tí ó ń tẹ aláìní mọ́lẹ̀, tí ó wí fún ọkọ rẹ̀, “Gbé wá kí a sì mu!”
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.
Olúwa Olódùmarè ti fi ìwà mímọ́ rẹ̀ búra: “Àkókò náà yóò dé nítòótọ́ nígbà tí a ó fi ìwọ̀ mú un yín lọ, ẹni tí ó kẹ́yìn pẹ̀lú ìwọ̀ ẹja.
3 You will leave through breaches in the city walls, thrown out in the direction of Mount Hermon.
Ẹni kọ̀ọ̀kan yín yóò jáde lọ gba àárín odi yíya a ó sì lé e yín sí Harmoni,” ni Olúwa wí.
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.
“Ẹ lọ sí Beteli láti dẹ́ṣẹ̀; ẹ lọ sí Gilgali kí ẹ sì dẹ́ṣẹ̀ sí i. Ẹ mú ẹbọ sísun yín láràárọ̀ wá, ìdámẹ́wàá yín ní ọdọọdún mẹ́ta.
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.
Kí ẹ mú ọ̀rẹ́ ìdúpẹ́ ìyẹ̀fun ìwúkàrà ti a sun kí ẹ sì mú ọrẹ àtinúwá lọ fi wọ́n yangàn, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Israẹli, nítorí èyí ni ẹ fẹ́ láti ṣe,” ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
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.
“Èmi fún un yín ní mímọ́ eyín ní gbogbo ìlú yín, àti àìní oúnjẹ ní gbogbo ibùgbé yín, síbẹ̀, ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sọ́dọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
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.
“Àti pẹ̀lú mo mú òjò dúró nígbà tí ìkórè ku oṣù mẹ́ta. Mo rán òjò sí ibùgbé kan ṣùgbọ́n kò rọ̀ sí ìlú mìíràn. Oko kan ní òjò; àwọn mìíràn kò ní ó sì gbẹ.
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.
Àwọn ènìyàn ń rìn láti ìlú kan sí ìlú mìíràn fún omi wọn kò rí mu tẹ́ wọn lọ́rùn, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò padà sí ọ̀dọ̀ mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
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.
“Lọ́pọ̀ ìgbà ni mo kọlu ọgbà àti ọgbà àjàrà yín mo fi ìrẹ̀dànù àti ìmúwòdù lù wọ́n. Eṣú sì jẹ igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ àti igi olifi yín, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
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.
“Mo rán àjàkálẹ̀-ààrùn sí i yín bí mo ti ṣe sí Ejibiti. Mo fi idà pa àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yín. Pẹ̀lú àwọn ẹṣin tí a kó ní ìgbèkùn. Mo kún imú yín fún òórùn ibùdó yín, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
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.
“Mo ti bì ṣubú nínú yín, bí Ọlọ́run ti bi Sodomu àti Gomorra ṣubú ẹ̀yin sì dàbí ògúnná tí a fa yọ kúrò nínú iná, síbẹ̀ ẹ̀yin kò yípadà sí mi,” ni Olúwa wí.
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!
“Nítorí náà, èyí ni ohun tí èmi yóò ṣe sí i yín, Israẹli, àti nítorí tí èmi ó ṣe èyí sí i yín, ẹ múra láti pàdé Ọlọ́run yín, ẹ̀yin Israẹli.”
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!
Ẹni tí ó dá àwọn òkè tí ó dá afẹ́fẹ́ tí ó sì fi èrò rẹ̀ hàn sí ènìyàn, ẹni tí ó yípadà sí òkùnkùn tí ó sì tẹ ibi gíga ayé. Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun ni orúkọ rẹ̀.
