< Amos 8 >
1 Thus has Lord YHWH showed me, and behold, a basket of summer-fruit.
Ga abin da Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka ya nuna mini. Ubangiji ya nuna mini kwandon nunannun’ya’yan itace.
2 And He says, “What are you seeing, Amos?” And I say, “A basket of summer-fruit.” And YHWH says to me: “The end has come to My people Israel, I no longer pass over to it anymore.
Ya yi tambaya ya ce, “Me ka gani Amos?” Sai na amsa na ce, “Kwandon nunannun’ya’yan itace.” Sai Ubangiji ya ce mini, “Lokaci ya yi wa mutanena Isra’ila da ba zan ƙara barinsu ba.
3 And female singers have howled of a palace in that day,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “Many [are] the carcasses, into any place throw—hush!”
“A ranan nan,” in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, “Waƙoƙin a haikali za su koma makoki. Za a ga gawawwaki a ko’ina! Shiru!”
4 Hear this, you who are swallowing up the needy, To cause the poor of the land to cease,
Ku ji wannan, ku da kuke tattake masu bukata kuka kori matalautan ƙasar.
5 Saying, “When does the new moon pass, And we sell ground grain? And the Sabbath, and we open out pure grain? To make little the ephah, And to make great the shekel, And to use balances of deceit perversely.
Kuna cewa, “Yaushe Sabon Wata zai wuce don mu sayar da hatsi, Asabbaci ta wuce, don mu sayar da alkama?” Mu yi awo da ma’aunin zalunci mu ƙara kuɗin kaya mu kuma cutar da mai saya,
6 To purchase the poor with money, And the needy for a pair of sandals, Indeed, the refuse of the pure grain we sell.”
mu sayi matalauta da azurfa masu bukata kuma da takalmi, mu sayar da alkamar haɗe da yayi.
7 YHWH has sworn by the excellence of Jacob: “I do not forget any of their works forever.
Ubangiji ya rantse da Girman Yaƙub, “Ba zan taɓa mantawa da duk wani abin da suka yi ba.
8 Does the land not tremble for this, And every dweller in it has mourned? And all of it has come up as a flood. And it has been cast out, and has sunk, Like the flood of Egypt.
“Shin, ƙasar ba za tă yi rawan jiki saboda wannan ba, kuma duk masu zama a cikinta ba za su yi makoki ba? Ƙasar duka za tă hau ta sauka kamar Nilu; za a dama ta sa’an nan ta nutse kamar kogin Masar.
9 And it has come to pass in that day,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “I have caused the sun to go in at noon, And caused darkness on the land in a day of light,
“A wannan rana,” in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, “Zan sa rana ta fāɗi da tsakar rana in kuma duhunta duniya da rana tsaka.
10 And have turned your festivals to mourning, And all your songs to lamentation, And caused sackcloth to come up on all loins, And on every head—baldness, And made it as a mourning of an only one, And its latter end as a day of bitterness.
Zan mai da bukukkuwanku na addini su zama makoki kuma dukan waƙoƙinku su zama kuka. Zan sa dukanku ku sa rigunan makoki za ku kuma aske kawunanku. Zan sa wannan lokaci yă zama kamar lokacin da ake makokin ɗan tilon da ake da shi kuma ƙarshenta kamar rana mai ɗaci.
11 Behold, days are coming,” A declaration of Lord YHWH, “And I have sent a famine into the land, Not a famine of bread, nor a thirst of water, But of hearing the words of YHWH.
“Ranakun suna zuwa,” in ji Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka, “sa’ad da zan aika da yunwa cikin ƙasar, ba yunwar abinci ko ta ƙishirwa ba, sai dai yunwa ta jin maganar Ubangiji.
12 And they have wandered from sea to sea, And from north even to east, They go to and fro to seek the word of YHWH, And they do not find [it].
Mutane za su yi ta tangaɗi daga teku zuwa teku suna yawo daga arewa zuwa kudu, suna neman maganar Ubangiji, amma ba za su samu ba.
13 In that day the beautiful virgins, And the young men, faint with thirst.
“A wannan rana “kyawawan’yan mata da kuma samari masu ji da ƙarfi za su suma don ƙishirwa.
14 Those swearing by the guilt of Samaria, And who have said, Your god lives, O Dan, And, The way of Beer-Sheba lives, Indeed, they have fallen and do not rise again!”
Waɗanda suka yi rantsuwa da abin kunya na Samariya, ko kuma su ce, ‘Muddin allahnku yana a raye, ya Dan,’ ko kuwa, ‘Muddin allahn Beyersheba yana a raye,’ za su fāɗi, ba kuwa za su ƙara tashi ba.”
