Amos 3
1 Hear this word that YHWH has spoken concerning you, O sons of Israel, concerning all the family that I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
Ẹ gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ tí Olúwa ti sọ nípa rẹ̀, ẹ̀yin ènìyàn Israẹli nípa àwọn ìdílé tí mo mú jáde láti Ejibiti:
2 “Only you have I known of all families of the earth, Therefore I charge on you all your iniquities.”
“Ìwọ nìkan ni ẹni tí mo yàn nínú gbogbo àwọn ìran ayé yìí; nígbà náà èmi ó jẹ ọ́ ní yà fún gbogbo ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ.”
3 Do two walk together if they have not met?
Ẹni méjì ha à le rìn pọ̀ láìjẹ́ pé wọ́n ti pinnu láti ṣe bẹ?
4 Does a lion roar in a forest and he has no prey? Does a young lion give out his voice from his habitation, If he has not caught?
Ǹjẹ́ Kìnnìún yóò ha bú ramúramù nínú igbó, bí kò bá ní ohun ọdẹ? Ọmọ kìnnìún yóò ha ké jáde nínú ìhó rẹ̀ bí kò bá rí ohun kan mú?
5 Does a bird fall into a snare of the earth, And there is no trap for it? Does a snare go up from the ground, And it does not capture prey?
Ǹjẹ́ ẹyẹ ṣubú sínú okùn ọdẹ lórí ilẹ̀ nígbà tí a kò dẹ okùn ọdẹ fún un? Okùn ọdẹ ha lè hù jáde lórí ilẹ̀ nígbà tí kò sí ohun tí yóò mú?
6 Is a horn blown in a city, And do people not tremble? Is there affliction in a city, And YHWH has not done [it]?
Nígbà tí ìpè bá dún ní ìlú, àwọn ènìyàn kò ha bẹ̀rù? Tí ewu bá wa lórí ìlú kò ha ṣe Olúwa ni ó fà á?
7 For Lord YHWH does nothing, Except He has revealed His counsel to His servants the prophets.
Nítòótọ́ Olúwa Olódùmarè kò ṣe ohun kan láìfi èrò rẹ̀ hàn fun àwọn wòlíì ìránṣẹ́ rẹ̀.
8 A lion has roared—who does not fear? Lord YHWH has spoken—who does not prophesy?
Kìnnìún ti bú ramúramù ta ni kì yóò bẹ̀rù? Olúwa Olódùmarè ti sọ̀rọ̀ ta ni le ṣe àìsọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀?
9 “Sound to palaces in Ashdod, And to palaces in the land of Egypt, and say: Be gathered on mountains of Samaria, And see many troubles within her, And oppressed ones in her midst.
Ẹ kéde ní ààfin Aṣdodu àti ní ààfin ní ilẹ̀ Ejibiti. “Ẹ kó ara yín jọ sí orí òkè ńlá Samaria; kí ẹ sì wo ìrọ́kẹ̀kẹ̀ ńlá láàrín rẹ̀ àti ìnilára láàrín àwọn ènìyàn rẹ.”
10 And they have not known to act straightforwardly,” A declaration of YHWH, “Who are treasuring up violence and spoil in their palaces.”
“Wọn kò mọ bí wọ́n ṣe ń ṣe rere,” ni Olúwa wí, “àwọn ẹni tí ó gba àwọn ìwà ipá àti olè sí ààfin rẹ̀.”
11 Therefore, thus said Lord YHWH: “An adversary—and surrounding the land, And he has brought down your strength from you, And your palaces have been spoiled.”
Nítorí náà, báyìí ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí: “Àwọn ọ̀tá yóò pa ilẹ̀ náà run; yóò wó ibi gíga yín palẹ̀ a ó sì ba ààfin rẹ̀ jẹ́.”
12 Thus said YHWH: “As the shepherd delivers from the lion’s mouth Two legs, or a piece of an ear, So the sons of Israel are delivered, Who are sitting in Samaria on the corner of a bed, And in Damascus [on that of] a couch.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Bí olùṣọ́-àgùntàn ti ń gbà itan méjì kúrò ní ẹnu kìnnìún tàbí ẹ̀là etí kan bẹ́ẹ̀ ni a ó mú àwọn ọmọ Israẹli, tí ń gbé Samaria kúrò ní igun ibùsùn wọn ní orí àga ìrọ̀gbọ̀kú wọn ní Damasku.”
13 Hear and testify to the house of Jacob,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, God of Hosts.
“Gbọ́ èyí kí o sì jẹ́rìí nípa ilé Jakọbu,” ni Olúwa wí, Olúwa Ọlọ́run àwọn ọmọ-ogun.
14 “For in the day of My charging the transgressions of Israel on him, I have laid a charge on the altars of Beth-El, And the horns of the altar have been cut off, And they have fallen to the earth.
“Ní ọjọ́ tí mo fìyà jẹ Israẹli lórí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ wọn, Èmi yóò pa pẹpẹ Beteli run; ìwo pẹpẹ ni a ó ké kúrò yóò sì wó lulẹ̀.
15 And I have struck the winter-house with the summer-house, And houses of ivory have perished, And many houses have been consumed,” A declaration of YHWH!
Èmi yóò wó ilé òtútù lulẹ̀ pẹ̀lú ilé ooru; ilé tí a fi eyín erin ṣe lọ́ṣọ̀ọ́ yóò ṣègbé a ó sì pa ilé ńlá náà run,” ni Olúwa wí.
