< Amos 7 >

1 Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, he was forming locusts in the beginning of the sprouting up of the latter groweth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings [was over].
Oasr aruruma se nga liye sin LEUM GOD Fulat. In aruruma se inge nga liye El orala u in locust na lulap se tukunna pacl se kosreyukla mah nun kosro nutin tokosra, ac sruen mah uh mutawauk in srunak.
2 And it came to pass, when they had made an end of eating up the herbs of the earth, that I said, O Lord Eternal, forgive, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!
Ke aruruma sac nga liye ke locust uh mutawauk in kangla mah ac sra nukewa fin acn uh, na nga fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulat, nunak munas nu sin mwet in fwil natul Jacob! Elos ac moulla fuka? Elos arulana munas!”
3 The Lord bethought himself of this: It shall not be, said the Lord.
Na LEUM GOD El ekulla nunak lal ac fahk, “Ma kom liye uh ac fah tia sikyak.”
4 Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, the Lord Eternal called forth the punishment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and consumed the ploughed field.
Nga sifil liye sie aruruma sin LEUM GOD Fulat. In aruruma sac, nga liye El akoo in kalyei mwet lal ke e. E sac furreak meoa lulap ye faclu, ac mutawauk in esukak acn uh.
5 Then said I, O Lord Eternal, forbear, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!
Na nga fahk, “O LEUM GOD Fulat, tulokinya e u! Mwet lom uh ac moulla fuka? Elos arulana pu ac munas!”
6 The Lord bethought himself of this: Also this shall not be, said the Lord Eternal.
Na LEUM GOD El sifilpa ekulla nunak lal ac fahk, “Ma se inge ac fah tia pac sikyak.”
7 Thus he showed unto me: and, behold, the Lord was standing upon a wall [made] by a plumbline, and in his hand was a plumbline.
Na nga sifil liye sie aruruma sin LEUM GOD. In aruruma se inge nga liye El tu sisken soko pot, ma mwet musa elos tuh orekmakin soko ah in aksuwos ke elos musai, ac LEUM GOD El sruok ah in aksuwos soko in paol.
8 And the Lord said unto me, What dost thou see, 'Amos? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not farther indulge them any more.
El siyuk sik, “Amos, mea kom liye?” Na nga fahk, “Ah in aksuwos soko.” Na El fahk, “Nga orekmakin ah soko inge in akkalemye lah mwet luk elos oana soko pot ma kihla. Nga ac fah tia sifil ekulla nunak luk lah nga ac kalyaelos.
9 And the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid in ruins: and I will rise up against the house of Jerobo'am with the sword.
Acn nukewa mwet in fwil natul Isaac alu we ac fah kunanula. Acn mutal lun Israel ac fah sruala. Nga ac wotela tokosrai lun sou lal Tokosra Jeroboam in wanginla.”
10 Then sent Amazyah, the priest of Beth-el, to Jerobo'am the king of Israel, saying, 'Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
Na Amaziah, mwet tol fulat in acn Bethel, el supwala kas nu yorol Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel, su fahk ouinge: “Amos el fahk kas in lain kom inmasrlon mwet uh. Sramsram lal uh ac kunausla facl se inge.
11 For thus hath 'Amos said, By the sword shall Jerobo'am die, and Israel shall surely be led away into exile out of their own land.
Pa inge ma el fahk, ‘Jeroboam el fah misa ke mweun, ac mwet Israel fah utukla liki acn selos nu in sruoh.’”
12 And Amazyah said unto 'Amos, Seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and eat there [thy] bread, and there prophesy;
Na Amaziah el fahk nu sel Amos, “Mwet palu, folokla nu Judah ac oru luti lom in acn we. Lela mwet we in moli nu sum.
13 But at Beth-el prophesy not farther any more; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal residence.
Nimet sifilpa palu in acn Bethel. Acn in alu sin tokosra ac mwet in facl se inge nufon pa inge.”
14 Then answered 'Amos, and said to Amazyah, I am no prophet, nor am I a prophet's son; but I am a herdman, and a gatherer of wild figs;
Na Amos el topuk, “Nga tia palu in moul nu sik. Nga sie mwet liyaung sheep, ac nga orekma ke sak fig.
15 But the Lord hath taken me away from behind the flocks, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
Tuh pa LEUM GOD El eisyula liki orekma in mwet shepherd, ac sap nga in tuku ac palu nu sin mwet lal, mwet Israel.
16 And now hear thou the word of the Lord, Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac.
Inge, lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk. Kom fahk nu sik nga in tia palu ac in tia kaskas lain mwet Israel.
17 Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Thy wife will play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided out by the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall surely be led forth into exile out of their land.
Ke kom fahk ouinge, Amaziah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sum, ‘Mutan kiom an ac fah ekla sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal in siti uh, ac tulik nutum ac fah anwuki ke mweun. Acn sum ac fah kitakatelik ac itukyang nu sin kutu pacna mwet, ac kom sifacna ac fah misa in facl sin mwet pegan. Pwayena mwet Israel fah utukla liki acn selos nu in sruoh.’”
