Amos 2
1 Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Moab, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of his burning the bones of the king of Edom to lime,
耶和华如此说： 摩押三番四次地犯罪， 我必不免去她的刑罚； 因为她将以东王的骸骨焚烧成灰。
2 And I have sent a fire against Moab, And it has consumed the palaces of Kerioth, And Moab is dying with noise, With shouting, with voice of a horn.
我却要降火在摩押， 烧灭加略的宫殿。 摩押必在哄嚷呐喊吹角之中死亡。
3 And I have cut off judge from her midst, And I slay all its heads with him,” said YHWH.
我必剪除摩押中的审判者， 将其中的一切首领和他一同杀戮。 这是耶和华说的。
4 Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Judah, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their loathing the Law of YHWH, And His statutes they have not kept, And their lies cause them to err, After which their fathers walked,
耶和华如此说： 犹大人三番四次地犯罪， 我必不免去他们的刑罚； 因为他们厌弃耶和华的训诲， 不遵守他的律例。 他们列祖所随从虚假的偶像使他们走迷了。
5 And I have sent a fire against Judah, And it has consumed palaces of Jerusalem.”
我却要降火在犹大， 烧灭耶路撒冷的宫殿。
6 Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Israel, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their selling the righteous for silver, And the needy for a pair of sandals.
耶和华如此说： 以色列人三番四次地犯罪， 我必不免去他们的刑罚； 因他们为银子卖了义人， 为一双鞋卖了穷人。
7 Who are panting for the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, And the way of the humble they turn aside, And a man and his father go to the girl, So as to defile My holy Name.
他们见穷人头上所蒙的灰也都垂涎， 阻碍谦卑人的道路。 父子同一个女子行淫， 亵渎我的圣名。
8 And they stretch themselves on pledged garments near every altar, And the wine of fined ones they drink [in] the house of their gods.
他们在各坛旁铺人所当的衣服，卧在其上， 又在他们神的庙中喝受罚之人的酒。
9 And I have destroyed the Amorite from before them, Whose height [is] as the height of cedars, And he [is] strong as the oaks, And I destroy his fruit from above, And his roots from beneath.
我从以色列人面前除灭亚摩利人。 他虽高大如香柏树，坚固如橡树， 我却上灭他的果子，下绝他的根本。
10 And I have brought you up from the land of Egypt, And cause you to go in a wilderness forty years, To possess the land of the Amorite.
我也将你们从埃及地领上来， 在旷野引导你们四十年， 使你们得亚摩利人之地为业。
11 And I raise of your sons for prophets, And of your choice ones for Nazarites, Is this not true, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH.
我从你们子弟中兴起先知， 又从你们少年人中兴起拿细耳人。 以色列人哪，不是这样吗？ 这是耶和华说的。
12 “And you cause the Nazarites to drink wine, And on the prophets you have laid a charge, Saying, Do not prophesy!
你们却给拿细耳人酒喝， 嘱咐先知说：不要说预言。
13 Behold, I am pressing you under, As the full cart presses a sheaf for itself.
看哪，在你们所住之地，我必压你们， 如同装满禾捆的车压物一样。
14 And refuge has perished from the swift, And the strong does not strengthens his power, And the mighty does not deliver his soul.
快跑的不能逃脱； 有力的不能用力； 刚勇的也不能自救。
15 And the handler of the bow does not stand, And the swift does not deliver [himself] with his feet, And the rider of the horse does not deliver his soul.
拿弓的不能站立； 腿快的不能逃脱； 骑马的也不能自救。
16 And the courageous of heart among the mighty, Flees naked in that day,” A declaration of YHWH!
到那日，勇士中最有胆量的， 必赤身逃跑。 这是耶和华说的。
