< Amos 5 >

1 Hear ye this word which I take up for a lamentation over you, O house of Israel:
Denggenyo daytoy a sao nga idungdung-awko kadakayo, balay ti Israel.
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen, she shall no more rise; she is cast down upon her land, there is none to raise her up.
Natuangen ti birhen nga Israel; saanto isuna a bumangonen; nabaybay-an isuna iti mismo a dagana; awan iti mangbangon kenkuana.
3 For thus saith the Lord GOD: The city that went forth a thousand shall have a hundred left, and that which went forth a hundred shall have ten left, of the house of Israel.
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: “Ti siudad a rimmuar nga addaan iti sangaribo ket sangagasutto laeng ti mabati ken ti rimmuar nga addaan iti sangagasut ket sangapulonto laeng ti mabati iti balay ti Israel.”
4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel: Seek ye Me, and live;
Gapu ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti balay ti Israel: “Sapulendak ket agbiagkayo!
5 But seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth-el shall come to nought.
Saanyo a sapulen ti Betel; wenno sumrek iti Gilgal; saankayo a mapan iti Beerseba. Gapu ta awan duadua a maitalawto a kas balud ti Gilgal, ket agladingitto ti Betel.
6 Seek the LORD, and live — lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and it devour, and there be none to quench it in Bethel —
Sapulenyo ni Yahweh ket agbiagkayo, Amangan no sumgiab isuna a kas apuy iti balay ni Jose. Mangibusto daytoy, ket awanto iti mangiddep iti daytoy iti Betel.
7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and cast righteousness to the ground;
Pagbalbalinen dagidiay a tattao a nasaem a banag ti hustisia ket ibelbellengda iti daga ti kinalinteg!”
8 Him that maketh the Pleiades and Orion, and bringeth on the shadow of death in the morning, and darkeneth the day into night; that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD is His name;
Inaramid ti Dios ti Pleyades ken Orion; pagbalbalinenna nga agsapa ti sipnget; pagbalbalinenna a rabii ti aldaw ken ay-ayabanna ti danum iti baybay ket ibuybuyatna iti rabaw ti daga. Yahweh ti naganna!
9 That causeth destruction to flash upon the strong, so that destruction cometh upon the fortress.
Iiyegna ti apagdarikmat a pannakadadael kadagiti nabileg tapno dumteng ti pannakadadael kadagiti sarikedked.
10 They hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
Kabusbusorda ti siasinoman a mangilinlinteg kadakuada sadiay ruangan ti siudad, ken gurguraenda ti siasinoman nga agibagbaga iti pudno.
11 Therefore, because ye trample upon the poor, and take from him exactions of wheat; ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them, ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine thereof.
Gapu ta ibaddebaddekyo dagiti marigrigat ken al-alaenyo dagiti trigoda, uray man no nagpatakderkayo kadagiti balay a naaramid iti bato, saankayonto nga agnaed sadiay. Nagpipintas ti kaubasanyo ngem saanyonto a mainum ti arak a naggapu kadagitoy.
12 For I know how manifold are your transgressions, and how mighty are your sins; ye that afflict the just, that take a ransom, and that turn aside the needy in the gate.
Gapu ta ammok ti kaadu dagiti panagsalungasingyo ken ti kadakkel dagiti basbasolyo— dakayo a mangparparigat ti nalinteg, umaw-awat iti pasuksok ken mangiwalwalin kadagiti agkasapulan sadiay ruangan ti siudad.
13 Therefore the prudent doth keep silence in such a time; for it is an evil time.
Isu nga agulimek ti siasinoman a nanakman iti kasta a tiempo, ta dayta ket tiempo ti kinadakes.
14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live; and so the LORD, the God of hosts, will be with you, as ye say.
Sapulenyo ti naimbag, saan a ti dakes tapno agbiagkayo. Ket ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin ket addanto kadakayo a kas kunkunayo.
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish justice in the gate; it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
Guraenyo ti dakes, ayatenyo ti naimbag, ipasdekyo ti hustisia idiay ruangan iti siudad. Nalabit a maasianto ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin, kadagiti nabati a kaputotan ni Jose.
16 Therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord: Lamentation shall be in all the broad places, and they shall say in all the streets: 'Alas! alas!' and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and proclaim lamentation to such as are skilful of wailing.
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin: “Addanto panagdung-aw iti amin a plasa, ket ibagadanto iti amin a kalsada, 'Asi pay! Asi pay! Ayabandanto dagiti mannalon nga agdung-aw ken dagiti dumudung-aw tapno agdung-aw.
17 And in all vineyards shall be lamentation; for I will pass through the midst of thee, saith the LORD.
Addanto iti panagdung-aw iti amin a kaubasan ta lumabasakto iti tengngayo,” kuna ni Yahweh.
18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! Wherefore would ye have the day of the LORD? It is darkness, and not light.
Kakaasikayo a mangtartarigagay ti aldaw ni Yahweh! Apay a tartarigagayanyo ti aldaw ni Yahweh? Sipngetto dayta nga aldaw, saan a lawag.
19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; and went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
Kas iti tao nga itartarayana ti leon ket adda ti oso a masabatna, wenno simrek iti balay, insadagna ti imana iti diding ket kinagat isuna iti uleg.
20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?
Saankadi a sipngetto ti aldaw ni Yahweh, saan a lawag? Nalidem ken nasipnget?
21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I will take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
“Kagurgurak ken karurodko dagiti piestayo, saanak a maragragsakan kadagiti napasnek a panaguummongyo.
22 Yea, though ye offer me burnt-offerings and your meal-offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace-offerings of your fat beasts.
Uray man no idatonyo kaniak dagiti daton a maipuor ken dagiti sagut a bukbukkel, saankonto nga awaten dagitoy, wenno taliawen dagiti pinalukmegyo nga ayup nga idatagyo kas daton a pannakilangen.
23 Take thou away from Me the noise of thy songs; and let Me not hear the melody of thy psalteries.
Isardengyo ti ariwawa dagiti kantayo; saanko a denggen ti uni dagiti arpayo.
24 But let justice well up as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
Palubosanyo ketdi nga agayus ti hustisia a kas iti danum, ken ti kinalinteg a kas iti kankanayon nga agay-ayus a karayan.
25 Did ye bring unto Me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
Inyegandak kadi kadagiti sakripisio ken daton iti let-ang bayat iti uppat a pulo a tawen, balay ti Israel?
26 So shall ye take up Siccuth your king and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
Itag-ayonto ni Sakkut a kas ariyo ken ni Kaiwan a bituen a diosyo—dagiti didiosen nga inaramidyo para kadagiti bagbagiyo.
27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith He, whose name is the LORD God of hosts.
Ngarud, italawkayonto a kas balud iti labes ti Damasco,” kuna ni Yahweh, Dios a mannakabalin amin ti naganna.
