Amos 6

1 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and to them that are secure in the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!

Malaʻia kiate kinautolu ʻoku fakafiemālie kovi ʻi Saione, pea ʻoku falala ki he moʻunga ʻo Samēlia, ʻoku ui ko e tuʻu ki muʻa ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga, ʻaia naʻe haʻu ki ai ʻae fale ʻo ʻIsileli!

2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see, and from thence go ye to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines; are they better than these kingdoms? or is their border greater than your border?

Laka koe ki Kaline, pea vakai: pea ʻalu mei ai ki Hamati lahi: pea toki ʻalu hifo ki Kati ʻoe kakai Filisitia: ʻoku nau lelei lahi koā ʻi he ngaahi puleʻanga ni? Pe ʻoku lahi hake honau mata fonua, ʻi homou mata fonua?

3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;

Ko kimoutolu ʻoku tuku mamaʻo atu ʻae ʻaho kovi, pea ʻoku pule ke ʻunuʻunu mai ʻae nofoʻa ʻoe fakamālohi;

4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;

Pea ʻoku tokoto ʻi he ngaahi mohenga lei, pea ʻoku fakatokoto ʻekinautolu ʻi he ngaahi tokotoʻanga, pea ʻoku kai ʻae fanga lami mei he fanga manu, pea mo e ʻuhiki pulu mei he fale manu;

5 That thrum on the psaltery, that devise for themselves instruments of music, like David;

Pea ʻoku hivehiva ki he leʻo ʻoe meʻa faiva, pea ʻoku filioʻi ke ngaohi maʻanautolu ʻae ngaahi meʻa faiva ke hiva ʻaki, hangē ko Tevita;

6 That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments; but they are not grieved for the hurt of Joseph.

Pea ʻoku inu uaine mei he ngaahi ipu, pea ʻoku tākai ʻakinautolu ʻaki ʻae lolo mahuʻinga: ka ʻoku ʻikai te nau mamahi ʻi he tuʻutāmaki ʻa Siosefa.

7 Therefore now shall they go captive at the head of them that go captive, and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass away.

Ko ia te nau ʻalu ke pōpula mo e kakai ʻoku tomuʻa ʻalu ki he pōpula, pea ko e kātoanga kai ʻanautolu naʻe fakatokoto ʻe fetuku.

8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by Himself, saith the LORD, the God of hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his palaces; and I will deliver up the city with all that is therein.

“Kuo fuakava ʻa Sihova ʻi heʻene ʻafio,” ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “ʻoku ou fehiʻa ki he lelei ʻo Sēkope, pea fākaliliʻa ki hono ngaahi fale fakaʻeiki; ko ia te u tukuange ʻae kolo mo ia kotoa pē ʻoku ʻi ai.

9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.

Pea ʻe pehē, ka ai ha kau tangata ʻe toko hongofulu kuo tuku ʻi he fale ʻe taha, te nau mate.

10 And when a man's uncle shall take him up, even he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is in the innermost parts of the house: 'Is there yet any with thee?' and he shall say: 'No'; then shall he say: 'Hold thy peace; for we must not make mention of the name of the LORD.'

“ʻE toʻo ʻae tangata ʻe heʻene tuʻasina, pea mo ia ne tutu ia, ke ʻomi ʻae ngaahi hui mei he fale, pea te ne pehē kiate ia ʻoku ʻi he veʻe fale, ‘ʻOku ai ha taha mo koe?’ Pea te ne pehē, ‘ʻIkai.’ Pea te ne toki pehē, ‘ʻOua te ke lea: he ʻoku tapu ke takua ʻae huafa ʻo Sihova.’

11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and the great house shall be smitten into splinters, and the little house into chips.

“Koeʻuhi, vakai, ʻoku fekau ʻe Sihova, pea te ne taaʻi ʻae fale lahi ke avaava, pea mo e fale siʻi ke mafahifahi.

12 Do horses run upon the rocks? Doth one plow there with oxen? that ye have turned justice into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood;

‌ʻE lele koā ʻae fanga hoosi ʻi he funga maka? ʻE ai ha taha te ne toho huo ai ʻaki ʻae fanga pulu? He kuo mou liliu ʻae fakamaau ko e ʻahu, pea ko e fua ʻoe angatonu ko e hemiloki:

13 Ye that rejoice in a thing of nought, that say: 'Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?'

‌ʻAkimoutolu ʻoku fiefia ʻi he meʻa noa pe, pea lea pehē, ‘ʻIkai kuo tau maʻu ʻae nifo, ʻi hotau mālohi pe?’”

14 For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of the Arabah.

Ka ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, ko e ʻOtua ʻoe ngaahi kautau, “Vakai; te u fokotuʻu kiate kimoutolu ha puleʻanga, ʻe fale ʻo ʻIsileli; pea te nau fakamamahi ʻakimoutolu mei he hūʻanga ki Hamati ʻo aʻu ki he vaitafe ʻoe toafa.”
