Amos 2
1 Thus sayth the Lord, For three transgressions of Moab, and for foure, I will not turne to it, because it burnt the bones of the King of Edom into lime.

2 Therefore will I send a fire vpon Moab, and it shall deuoure the palaces of Kerioth, and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of a trumpet.

7 They gape ouer the head of the poore, in the dust of the earth, and peruert the wayes of the meeke: and a man and his father will goe in to a mayde to dishonour mine holy Name.
ki koprnijo po zemeljskem prahu na glavi revnega in zavijajo pot krotkega. Moški in njegov oče bosta šla noter k isti deklici, da oskrunita moje sveto ime.
8 And they lye downe vpon clothes layde to pledge by euery altar: and they drinke the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.
Ob vsakem oltarju legajo na oblačila, položena za jamstvo in pijejo vino obsojenih v hiši svojega boga.
9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before the, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the okes: notwithstanding I destroyed his fruite from aboue, and his roote from beneath.
Čeprav sem pred njimi uničil Amoréjca, katerega višina je bila podobna višini ceder in je bil močan kakor hrasti, vendar sem uničil njegov sad od zgoraj in njegove korenine od spodaj.
10 Also I brought you vp from the land of Egypt, and led you fourtie yeres thorowe the wildernesse, to possesse the land of the Amorite.
Privedel sem vas tudi iz egiptovske dežele in vas štirideset let vodil skozi divjino, da vzamete v last deželo Amoréjca.
11 And I raysed vp of your sonnes for Prophets, and of your yong men for Nazarites. Is it not euen thus, O ye children of Israel, sayth the Lord?
Izmed vaših sinov sem dvignil preroke in izmed vaših mladeničev nazirce. Mar ni to celo tako, oh vi Izraelovi otroci?« govori Gospod.

14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mightie saue his life.
Zato bo pred naglim izginil umik in močni ne bo okrepil svoje moči niti mogočni sebe ne bo osvobodil
15 Nor he that handleth the bowe, shall stand, and he that is swift of foote, shall not escape, neyther shall he that rideth the horse, saue his life.
niti ne bo stal tisti, ki prijema lok in kdor je naglih stopal sebe ne bo osvobodil niti kdor jaha konja sebe ne bo osvobodil.
16 And he that is of a mighty courage among the strong men, shall flee away naked in that day, sayth the Lord.
In kdor je pogumen med mogočnimi, bo na ta dan nag pobegnil proč, « govori Gospod.
