< Amos 3 >
1 Heare this worde that the Lord pronounceth against you, O children of Israel, euen against the whole familie which I brought vp from the land of Egypt, saying,
Henoy izao teny izao, izay lazain’ i Jehovah ny aminareo, ry Zanak’ Isiraely, dia ny amin’ io taranaka rehetra nentiko niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta io:
2 You onely haue I knowen of all the families of the earth: therefore I will visite you for all your iniquities.
Hianareo ihany no fantatro tamin’ ny firenena rehetra ambonin’ ny tany, koa noho izany dia hovaliako ianareo noho ny helokareo rehetra.
3 Can two walke together except they bee agreed?
Ho tafara-dalana va ny roa, raha tsy efa nifanaiky?
4 Will a lion roare in ye forest, when he hath no pray? or wil a lions whelpe cry out of his den, if he haue taken nothing?
Mierona any an’ ala va ny liona, raha tsy mahita toha? Manerona ao an-davany va ny liona tanora, raha tsy mahazo zavatra?
5 Can a birde fall in a snare vpon the earth, where no fouler is? or will he take vp the snare from the earth, and haue taken nothing at all?
Voan’ ny fandrika etỳ an-tany va ny vorona, raha tsy nisy tadivavarana? Mikatona va ny fandrika, raha tsy mahavoa zavatra?
6 Or shall a trumpet be blowen in the citie, and the people be not afraide? or shall there be euil in a citie, and the Lord hath not done it?
Tsofina va ao an-tanàna ny anjomara, ka tsy hatahotra ny vahoaka? Misy loza ao an-tanàna va, raha tsy Jehovah no nahatonga izany?
7 Surely the Lord God will doe nothing, but he reueileth his secrete vnto his seruantes the Prophets.
Tsy manao na inona na inona tokoa Jehovah Tompo, raha tsy milaza ny heviny amin’ ny mpaminany mpanompony.
8 The lyon hath roared: who will not bee afraide? the Lord God hath spoken: who can but prophecie?
Ny liona no mierona, ka iza no tsy hatahotra? Jehovah Tompo no miteny, ka iza no tsy haminany?
9 Proclayme in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the lande of Egypt, and saye, Assemble your selues vpon the mountaines of Samaria: so beholde the great tumultes in the middes thereof, and the oppressed in the middes thereof.
Ambarao ao an-tranoben’ i Asdoda sy ao an-tranobe any amin’ ny tany Egypta, ka ataovy hoe: Miangona any an-tendrombohitr’ i Samaria ianareo, ary jereo ny tabataba be ao aminy sy ny fampahoriana ao anatiny.
10 For they knowe not to doe right, sayth the Lord: they store vp violence, and robbery in their palaces.
Fa tsy mahalala hanao ny marina izy ireo, hoy Jehovah, dia ireo izay mitahiry fandozana sy roba ao an-tranobeny.
11 Therefore thus saith the Lord God, An aduersary shall come euen rounde about the countrey, and shall bring downe thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shalbe spoyled.
Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah Tompo: He, misy fahavalo manodidina ny tany! Hazerany ho afaka aminao ny herinao, ary hobaboina ny tranobenao.
12 Thus saieth the Lord, As the shephearde taketh out of the mouth of the lyon two legges, or a piece of an eare: so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus, as in a couche.
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Toy ny famonjin’ ny mpiandry ondry ny tongotr’ ondry roa na ny sombin-tsofina eny am-bavan’ ny liona, dia toy izany no ho famonjy ny Zanak’ Isiraely, izay mipetraka ao Samaria, eo an-jorom-parafara sy eo amin’ ny lamba fandriandriana avy any Damaskosy.
13 Heare, and testifie in the house of Iaakob, saith the Lord God, the God of hostes.
Henoinareo, ka ambarao hamelezana ny taranak’ i Jakoba, hoy ny Tompo, Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro:
14 Surely in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel vpon him, I wil also visite the altars of Beth-el, and the hornes of the altar shall be broken off, and fall to the ground.
Amin’ ny andro hamaliako ny Isiraely noho ny fahotana ao aminy no hamaliako ny alitara ao Betela dia hokapaina ny tandroky ny alitara ka hianjera amin’ ny tany.
15 And I wil smite the winter house with the sommer house, and the houses of yuorie shall perish, and the great houses shalbe consumed, sayth the Lord.
Hamely ny trano ririnina sy ny trano fahavaratra Aho; Ary ho rava ny trano ivory, sady ho fongana ny trano maro, hoy Jehovah.
