Amos 8
1 This is what the Lord God showed me. I saw a basket of fruit.
PENEIA i hoike mai ai o Iehova ka Haku ia'u: aia hoi, he hinai hua oo.
2 He asked me, “What do you see, Amos?” I said, “A basket of fruit.” Then the Lord told me, “This is the end of my people Israel! I won't ignore their sins anymore.
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 On that day the Temple songs will become sorrowful wailing. There will be dead bodies scattered everywhere. Silence!” declares the Lord.
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 Listen to this, you who trample down the needy, and wipe out the poor of the land.
E hoolohe i keia, e oukou ka mea e moni i ka poe ilihune, a hoopau i ka poe nele o ka aina,
5 You who ask, “When will the holy day be over so we can get back to selling grain? When will the Sabbath be over so we can open our storehouses, and cheat people with short measures and unfair scales?”
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 You buy the poor for silver, the needy for a pair of sandals, and you sell grain mixed with chaff.
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 God, of whom the descendants of Jacob are so proud, has sworn an oath: I will never forget the evil you have done.
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 because of this, and everyone who lives there mourn? The earth will rise up like the Nile river in flood, be tossed around, and then fall again.
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 On that day, declares the Lord God, I will make the sun go down at noon, and darken the land during the daytime.
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 I will turn your festivals into times of mourning, your happy songs into laments. I will make you wear sackcloth and shave your heads. I will make your mourning like that for an only son. At the end of it all it will be 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 The time is coming, declares the Lord, when I will send a famine on the land—not a famine of bread, or a lack of water, but a famine of hearing the words 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 People will wander from sea to sea, from north to east, running to and fro searching for the word of the Lord, but they will 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 On that day, even the beautiful girls and healthy young men will collapse from thirst.
I kela la. e maule na wahine puupaa maikai, a me na kanaka opio no ka makewai.
14 Those who swear by the disgraceful idols of Samaria, who take oaths like, “By the life of your god, Dan,” or “A pilgrimage to the god of Beersheba”—they will fall, and never rise again.
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.
