< Amos 4 >

1 Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, Who [are] on the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: “Bring in, and we drink.”
Porongo kas inge, kowos mutan Samaria, su fatelik oana cow fact in acn Bashan. Kowos oru koluk nu sin mwet munas, ac akkeokye mwet sukasrup, ac kowos kifasten nu sin mukul tomowos in usot mwe sruhi nimowos.
2 Lord YHWH has sworn by His holiness, “Behold, days are coming on you, And He has taken you away with hooks, And your posterity with fish-hooks.
LEUM GOD Fulat El wulela ke Ine mutal lal, ac fahk, “Pwayena len se ac fah tuku ke mwet uh fah srumasrkowosla ke ka, ac amakinkowosla. Kais sie suwos ac fah oana soko ik sremla ke ka uh.
3 And [by] breaches you go forth, A woman before her, And you have cast down the high place,” A declaration of YHWH.
Ac fah amala kowos nu ke acn ma patla ke pot uh, ac tolokla kowos nu likin kalkal uh.”
4 “Enter Beth-El, and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression, And bring in your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every third year.
LEUM GOD Fulat El fahk, “Mwet Israel, ke kowos lungse na oru ma koluk, tari fahla nu Bethel, acn mutal, ac oru ke kuiyowos nufon! Fahla nu Gilgal ac laesla orekma koluk lowos! Use kosro uh ac orek kisa ke lotutang nukewa, ac use pac sie tafu singoul ke len aktolu nukewa.
5 And burn a thank-offering with leaven as incense, And proclaim willing gifts, sound! For so you have loved, O sons of Israel,” A declaration of Lord YHWH.
Us na bread tuh in mwe sang kulo lowos nu sin God, ac konkin ke ma kowos sang in laesla mwe sang lowos an. Mweyen pa ingan ma kowos muta lungse oru.
6 “And I also—I have given to you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in all your places, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
“Nga pa pwanang in oasr sracl in acn suwos nukewa. Ne ouinge, kowos tiana foloko nu yuruk.
7 “And I also—I have withheld from you the rain, While yet three months to harvest, And I have sent rain on one city, And on another city I do not send rain, One portion is rained on, And the portion on which it does not rain withers.
Nga tulokinya in tia af ke pacl se sacn sunowos enenu na af yohk. Nga lela in af ke sie siti, a wangin af ke sie pac siti. Af kahkla nu fin sie ima, a ima saya pulamlamlana.
8 And two or three cities have wandered, To the same city to drink water, And they are not satisfied, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
Ke sripen elos kofla muteng malu lalos, mwet in siti puspis som sukok kof in sie pacna siti, tuh tiana fal in kitalos. Ne ouinge kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.
9 “I have struck you with blasting and with mildew, The abundance of your gardens and of your vineyards, And of your figs, and of your olives, The palmer-worm eats, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
“Nga supwala sie eng fol tuh in fulokla sacn sunowos. Locust uh kangla ima in mahsrik, ima in grape, sak fig ac sak olive sunowos, a kowos srak pacna tia foloko nu yuruk.
10 “I have sent among you pestilence by the way of Egypt, I have slain your choice ones by sword, With your captive horses, And I cause the stink of your camps to come up—Even into your nostrils, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
“Nga sot sie kain mas upa nu fowos oana ke nga tuh oru nu fin acn Egypt. Nga onela mukul fusr nutuwos ke mweun, ac eisla horse nutuwos. Nga nwakla infwewos ke foulin mwet misa in nien aktuktuk lowos. A kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.
11 “I have overturned among you, Like the overturn by God of Sodom and Gomorrah, And you are as a brand delivered from a burning, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
“Nga kunausla kutu suwos oana nga tuh kunausla Sodom ac Gomorrah. Kowos su moulla, kowos oana wosr se itukla liki e. A kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.” LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge.
12 “Therefore, thus I do to you, O Israel, at last, Because this I do to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel.”
“Ke ma inge, nga fah kalyei kowos, mwet Israel. Ac ke sripa se inge, kowos in akola in tu ye mutuk ke pacl in nununku luk!”
13 For behold, the Former of mountains, and Creator of wind, And the Declarer to man what [is] His thought, He is making dawn obscurity, And is treading on high places of earth, YHWH, God of Hosts, [is] His Name!
God pa orala fineol uh, Ac orala eng uh. El oru tuh nunak lal in eteyuk sin mwet uh. El ekulla len uh nu ke fong. El leumi faclu nufon. Inel pa inge: LEUM GOD Kulana!
