Amos 4
1 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, that oppress the poor, that crush the needy, that say unto their lords: 'Bring, that we may feast.'
Isin yaa saawwan Baashaan kanneen Tulluu Samaariyaa irra jirtan, yaa dubartoota, isin warri hiyyeeyyii fi rakkattoota cunqursitanii dhirsoota keessaniin, “Dhugaatii nuuf fidaa!” jettan dubbii kana dhagaʼaa.
2 The Lord GOD hath sworn by His holiness: Lo, surely the days shall come upon you, that ye shall be taken away with hooks, and your residue with fish-hooks.
Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedhee qulqullummaa isaatiin kakateera: “Yeroon isin itti hokkoodhaan, isin keessaa namni dhumaa immoo qabduu qurxummiitiin qabamu tokko dhugumaan ni dhufa.
3 And ye shall go out at the breaches, every one straight before her; and ye shall be cast into Harmon, saith the LORD.
Isin tokko tokkoon qajeeltanii qaawwa dallaatiin ni baatu; gara Harmoonittis ni darbatamtu” jedha Waaqayyo.
4 Come to Beth-el, and transgress, to Gilgal, and multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices in the morning, and your tithes after three days;
“Beetʼeel dhaqaatii cubbuu hojjedhaa; Gilgaal dhaqaatii cubbuu baayʼee hojjedhaa. Ganama ganama aarsaa keessan dhiʼeessaa; waggaa sadii sadiitti immoo kennaa keessan harka kudhan keessaa harka tokko fidaa.
5 And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim freewill-offerings and publish them; for so ye love to do, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord GOD.
Buddeena raacitii qabu aarsaa galataa godhaatii gubaa; aarsaa fedhiidhaan kennitan labsaa; beeksisaas; yaa Israaʼeloota, wanni isin hojjechuu jaallattan kanaatii, ittiin boonaa” jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
6 And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
“Ani magaalaa hunda keessatti garaa duwwaa isiniif kenneera; magaalaa hunda keessattis buddeena isin dhabsiiseera; isin garuu gara kootti hin deebine” jedha Waaqayyo.
7 And I also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city; one piece was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
“Ani yeroo midhaan haamamuuf jiʼi sadii hafutti bokkaa isin irraa nan kute. Ani magaalaa tokkotti bokkaa ergee kaan irraa immoo nan dhaabe. Lafti qonnaa tokko bokkaa argatee kaan garuu homaa dhabee goge.
8 So two or three cities wandered unto one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
Uummanni bishaan barbaacha magaalaadhaa gara magaalaatti joore; garuu waan dhugaatiif isa gaʼu hin arganne; taʼus isin gara kootti hin deebine” jedha Waaqayyo.
9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew; the multitude of your gardens and your vineyards and your fig-trees and your olive-trees hath the palmer-worm devoured; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
“Ani yeroo hedduu iddoo biqiltuutii fi wayinii keessan waagii fi awwaaroodhaan dhaʼeen balleesse. Hawwaannisni harbuu fi ejersa keessan barbadeesse; taʼus isin gara kootti hin deebine” jedha Waaqayyo.
10 I have sent among you the pestilence in the way of Egypt; your young men have I slain with the sword, and have carried away your horses; and I have made the stench of your camp to come up even into your nostrils; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
“Ani akkuman biyya Gibxi godhe sana dhaʼicha isinitti nan erge. Ani fardeen isin boojitan wajjin dargaggoota keessan goraadeedhaan nan fixe. Ajaa qubata keessaniitiin funyaan keessan nan guute; isin garuu gara kootti hin deebine” jedha Waaqayyo.
11 I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a brand plucked out of the burning; yet have ye not returned unto Me, saith the LORD.
“Ani akkuman Sodoomii fi Gomoraa garagalche sana isin keessaa nama tokko tokko garagalcheera. Isin akkuma muka bobaʼu kan ibidda keessaa butamee ti; taʼus isin gara kootti hin deebine” jedha Waaqayyo.
12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel; because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
“Kanaafuu yaa Israaʼel, ani akkanan isin godha; sababii ani akkana isin godhuuf yaa Israaʼel Waaqa kee arguuf qophaaʼi.”
13 For, lo, He that formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, that maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth; the LORD, the God of hosts, is His name.
Inni tulluuwwan tolchee bubbee uumee yaada isaa namatti mulʼisu sun, inni barii dukkaneessee iddoowwan lafa ol kaʼoo irra ejjetu sun, maqaan isaa Waaqayyo, Waaqa Waan Hunda Dandaʼuu dha.
