< Amos 8 >

1 And behold a fowler's basket.
PENEIA i hoike mai ai o Iehova ka Haku ia'u: aia hoi, he hinai hua oo.
2 And he said, What see you, Amos? And I said, A fowler's basket. And the Lord said to me, The end is come upon my people Israel; I will not pass by them any more.
A i mai la ia, Heaha kau e ike nei, e Amosa? I aku la au, He hinai hua oo. Alaila, i mai la o Iehova ia'u, Ua hiki mai ka hope maluna o kuu poe kanaka o ka Iseraela; Aole au e hele hou ae mai o lakou aku.
3 And the ceilings of the temple shall howl in that day, says the Lord God: [there shall be] many a fallen one in every place; I will bring silence upon [them].
A e lilo na mele o ka halealii i auwe ana ia la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku: A he nui auanei na kupapau ma na wahi a pau: a e hoolei malu aku ia lakou.
4 Hear now this, you that oppress the poor in the morning, and drive the needy ones by tyranny from the earth,
E hoolohe i keia, e oukou ka mea e moni i ka poe ilihune, a hoopau i ka poe nele o ka aina,
5 saying, When will the month pass away, and we shall sell, and the sabbath, and we shall open the treasure, to make the measure small, and to enlarge the weight, and make the balance unfair?
I ka i ana ae, Ahea la e pau ai ka mahina hou, i kuai aku ai kakou i ka ai? A me ka Sabati, i wehe ae ai kakou i ka hua ai, e houuku ana i ka epa, A e hoomahuahua ana i ke sekela, a e hoololi ana i na mea kaupaona hoopunipuni?
6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for shoes; and we will trade in every kind of fruit.
I kuai aku ai kakou i ka poe ilihune no ke kala, A i ka poe nele no ka paa kamaa; a i kuai aku ai i ka hua palaoa ino?
7 The Lord swears against the pride of Jacob, None of your works shall ever be forgotten.
Ua hoohiki o Iehova ma ka nani o Iakoba, Aole loa au e hoopoina i ka lakou mau hana a pau.
8 And shall not the land be troubled for these things, and shall not every one who dwells in it mourn? whereas destruction shall come up as a river, and shall descend as the river of Egypt.
Aole anei e haalulu ka aina no keia mea, a e auwe na mea a pau e noho ana iloko ona? A e pii ae ia me he muliwai la a puni ona; A e laweia'ku ia, a e halana ae ia e like me ka muliwai o Aigupita.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord God, [that] the sun shall go down at noon, and the light shall be darkened on the earth by day:
A i kela la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E hoonapoo iho au i ka la i ke awakea, a e hoopouli iho au i ka aina i ka la laelae.
10 and I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; and I will make them as the mourning of a beloved [friend], and those with them as a day of grief.
A e hoolilo au i ka oukou mau ahaaina i auwe ana, A i ko oukou mau mele i kanikau ana; A e lawe mai au i ke kapa ino maluna o na puhaka a pau, A me ka ohule maluna o na poo a pau; A e hoohalike au ia mea me ka auwe ana no ke keiki kamakahi, A i ka hope o ia mea e like me ka la awaawa.
11 Behold, the days come, says the Lord, that I will send forth a famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the word of the Lord.
Aia hoi, e hiki mai ana na la, wahi a Iehova ka Haku, E lawe mai ai au i ka wi maluna o ka aina, aole o ka wi i ka ai, aole o ka make inu i ka wai, Aka, o ka lohe i ka olelo a Iehova.
12 And the waters shall be troubled from sea to sea, and from the north to the east shall [men] run hither and there, seeking the word of the Lord, and they shall not find [it].
A e auwana lakou mai ke kai a hiki i ke kai, a mai ke kukulu akau, a ka hikina, E holo lakou ma o a ma o, e imi ana i ka olelo a Iehova, aole e loaa.
13 In that day shall the fair virgins and the young men faint for thirst;
I kela la. e maule na wahine puupaa maikai, a me na kanaka opio no ka makewai.
14 they who swear by the propitiation of Samaria, and who say, Your god, O Dan, lives; and, Your god, O Bersabee, lives; and they shall fall, and shall no more rise again.
O ka poe e hoohiki ma ka hewa o Samaria, a i iho, E ola ana kou Akua, e Dana; a e ola ana ka aoao o Beereseba; E haule no hoi lakou, aole loa e ala hou ae.
