Amos 6
1 Woe to them [that are] at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, [which are] named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
Malè a sila ki alèz nan Sion yo, e ak sila ki santi yo ansekirite nan mòn Samarie yo, mesye ki distenge pami meyè nan nasyon yo, a sila lakay Israël konn vini yo.
2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: [be they] better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
Ale janbe kote Calné pou gade. Soti la rive Hamath Gran an, pou desann kote Gath de Filisten yo. Èske yo pi bon ke wayòm sila yo? Èske teritwa pa yo a pi gran pase pa nou an?
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
Malè a nou ki konn ranvoye jou malè! Ka pote sant vyolans lan vin pi pre!
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;
K ap repoze sou kabann fèt ak livwa yo, k ap gaye kò yo sou gwo sofa yo, e k ap manje jenn mouton ki soti nan pak la, ak jenn bèf ki soti nan mitan tonèl bèt la;
5 That chant to the sound of the viol, [and] invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;
sila ki enpwovize ak son ap la, ki envante lenstriman mizik yo menm jan ak David;
6 That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
Sila k ap bwè diven nan kalbas sakrifis yo pandan yo onksyone kò yo ak pi bon lwil yo, malgre sa, yo pa kriye pou Joseph, ki fin devaste nèt la.
7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.
Akoz sa, yo va antre an egzil nan tèt a egzile yo. Banbòch a sanzave yo va sispann.
8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.
Senyè BONDYE a te sèmante pa Li menm, SENYÈ Bondye dèzame yo te deklare: “Mwen rayi awogans a Jacob la, e Mwen deteste sitadèl li yo. Pou sa, Mwen va livre tout vil la ak tout sa ki ladann.”
9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
Epi li va vin rive ke si genyen dizòm ki rete nan yon kay, yo va mouri.
10 And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that [is] by the sides of the house, [Is there] yet [any] with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
Alò tonton a youn, oswa mèt mòg k ap antere l a va leve pote zo li sòti nan kay la. Konsa, li va mande a sila ki nan pati pi anndan nan kay la: “Èske gen lòt moun avèk ou?” Epi sila a va reponn: “Nanpwen moun”. Konsa li va reponn: “Rete an silans. Paske non a SENYÈ a pa dwe nonmen menm.”
11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
“Paske gade byen, SENYÈ a pral kòmande pou gwo lakay la vin kraze nèt, e ti kay la an ti mòso.
12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [one] plow [there] with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:
Èske cheval konn kouri sou wòch, oswa èske yo ka charye wòch yo ak bèf? Konsa, nou te fè Lajistis vin tounen pwazon e fwi ladwati vin anmè nèt.
13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
Nou menm k ap rejwi nan yon bagay ki pa anyen, epi k ap di: ‘Èske se pa ak pwòp fòs kouraj nou nou rive pran kòn nan pou nou?’
14 But, 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 entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.
Paske gade byen, Mwen pral leve yon nasyon kont nou, O lakay Israël,” deklare SENYÈ Bondye dèzame yo; “e yo va aflije nou soti nan antre Hamath pou rive jis nan flèv Araba a.”
