Amos 9
1 I sawe the Lord standing vpon the altar, and he sayde, Smite the lintel of the doore, that the postes may shake: and cut them in pieces, euen the heads of them all, and I will slay the last of them with the sword: he that fleeth of them, shall not flee away: and he that escapeth of them, shall not be deliuered.

2 Though they digge into the hell, thence shall mine hande take them: though they clime vp to heauen, thence will I bring them downe. (Sheol h7585)
Ne woƒu du yi keke tsiẽƒe hã la, mava afi ma ahe wo ado goe; eye ne wolia nu yi dziƒo hã la, mayi afi ma ahe wo vɛ. (Sheol h7585)
3 And though they hide them selues in the toppe of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence: and though they be hid from my sight in the bottome of the sea, thence will I commande the serpent, and he shall bite them.
Togbɔ be woasi aɖabe ɖe agakpe siwo le Karmel to tame hã la, madi wo, ake ɖe wo ŋu, ahe wo ado goe le afi ma. Ne wosi ɖabe ɖe atsiaƒu ƒe gogloƒe ke hã la, madɔ ƒumedawo ɖa be woaɖu wo, woaku.
4 And though they goe into captiuitie before their enemies, thence wil I commande the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes vpon them for euill, and not for good.

5 And the Lord God of hosts shall touch the land, and it shall melt away, and al that dwel therein shall mourne, and it shall rise vp wholy like a flood, and shall bee drowned as by the flood of Egypt.
Aƒetɔ Yehowa, Dziƒoʋakɔwo ƒe Mawu, ame si ka asi anyigba ŋuti wòlolõ, eye edzinɔlawo katã fa konyi, ame si na anyigba kɔ dzi abe Nil ene, eye wòna wòdze eme abe Egipte tɔsisi ene.
6 He buildeth his spheres in the heauen, and hath laide the foundation of his globe of elements in the earth: hee calleth the waters of the sea, and powreth them out vpon the open earth: the Lord is his Name.
Ame si tu nɔƒe kɔkɔwo ɖe dziƒonutowo me, eye wòɖo woƒe agunu ɖe anyigba dzi, ame si lɔ atsiaƒutsi, eye wòtrɔe ɖe anyigba katã dzi. Yehowae nye eƒe ŋkɔ.
7 Are ye not as the Ethiopians vnto mee, O children of Israel, sayeth the Lord? haue not I brought vp Israel out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistims from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir?
Yehowa be, “O Israelviwo, ɖe miele nam abe Kustɔwo ene oa? Ɖe menye nyee kplɔ Israel tso Egiptenyigba dzi, Filistitɔwo tso Kaftor kple Siriatɔwo tso Kir oa?”
8 Beholde, the eyes of the Lord God are vpon the sinfull kingdome, and I will destroy it cleane out of the earth. Neuerthelesse I will not vtterly destroy the house of Iaakob, saith the Lord.
“Aƒetɔ Yehowa ƒe ŋkuwo le fiaɖuƒe sẽto la ŋuti. Matsrɔ̃ wo ɖa le anyigba dzi, negbe Yakob ƒe aƒe la ko nyematsrɔ̃ keŋkeŋ o,” Yehowae gblɔe.
9 For loe, I will command and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, like as corne is sifted in a sieue: yet shall not the least stone fall vpon the earth.
“Elabena meɖe gbe, eye matsra Israel ƒe aƒe la le dukɔwo dome abe ale si wotsraa bli kple tsranui ene, ke ku ɖeka gɔ̃ hã mage ɖe anyigba o.
10 But all the sinners of my people shall dye by the sword, which say, The euill shall not come, nor hasten for vs.

11 In that day will I raise vp the tabernacle of Dauid, that is fallen downe, and close vp the breaches therof, and I will rayse vp his ruines, and I will builde it, as in the dayes of olde,
“Ekema le ɣe ma ɣi me la, “Magbugbɔ David ƒe agbadɔ atu, maɖɔ eƒe fiasã gbagbãwo ɖo, magaɖo eƒe aƒedowo te, eye magbugbɔ atui abe ale si wònɔ tsã ene,
12 That they may possesse the remnant of Edom, and of all the heathen, because my Name is called vpon them, sayeth the Lord, that doeth this.

13 Behold, the dayes come, saith the Lord, that the plowman shall touche the mower, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seede: and the mountaines shall drop sweete wine, and all the hilles shall melt.
Yehowa be, “Ŋkekewo li gbɔna,” “esime nukuxala maxa nuku vɔ hafi agbleŋlɔla nagadze agbleŋɔŋlɔ gɔme o, eye wainfiala mafia wain vɔ hafi woagadze waintiwo dodo gɔme o. Aha yeye atsyɔ le towo dzi, eye wòatsa le togbɛwo tame.
14 And I will bring againe the captiuitie of my people of Israel: and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabite the, and they shall plant vineyardes, and drinke the wine thereof: they shall also make gardens, and eate the fruites of them.
“Makplɔ Israel agbɔe tso aboyo me, woagbugbɔ woƒe du siwo zu aƒedo la atso, ahanɔ wo me, woade waingblewo, eye woafia aha ano le wo me. Woade agblewo eye woaɖu wo me kutsetsewo.
15 And I wil plant them vpon their land, and they shall no more bee pulled vp againe out of their lande, which I haue giuen them, sayeth the Lord thy God.
