Amos 9

1 I have seen the Lord standing by the altar, and He says, “Strike the knob, and the thresholds shake, And cut them off by the head—all of them, And I slay their posterity with a sword, None that flee of them flee away, Nor a fugitive of them escape.

Ne aneno Ruoth Nyasaye kochungʼ e bath kendo mar misango, mi owachona niya, “Muk sirni duto mag hekalu mondo agola oyiengni. Mukgi mondo gilwar ewi ji, to joma otony, to abiro tieko gi ligangla, kendo onge ngʼat ma noringi kata notony.

2 If they dig through into Sheol, From there My hand takes them, And if they go up [to] the heavens, From there I cause them to come down. (Sheol h7585)

Kata dabed ni gikunyo bur matut mi gichopo nyaka e piny joma otho, to kata mana kuno abiro chopoe mi agolgi oko. Kata dabed ni giidho mi gichopo e polo, to kata kuno abiro chopoe mi aduog-gi piny. (Sheol h7585)

3 And if they are hid in the top of Carmel, From there I search out, and have taken them, And if they are hid from My eyes in the bottom of the sea, From there I command the serpent, And it has bitten them.

Kata dabed ni gipondo ewi got Karmel, to kata mana kuno anadwargi mi amakgi. To kata dabed ni gipondona e bwo nam piny, to kata mana kuno anachik thuol mikagi.

4 And if they go into captivity before their enemies, From there I command the sword, And it has slain them, And I have set My eye on them for evil, And not for good.”

Kata dabed ni wasikgi oterogi e twech, to kata mana kuno abiro oro ligangla mondo otiekgi. “Anachom wangʼa kuomgi mondo atimnegi marach to ok maber.”

5 And [it is] the Lord, YHWH of Hosts, Who is striking against the land, and it melts, And mourned have all the inhabitants in it, And all of it has come up as a flood, And it has sunk—like the flood of Egypt.

Ruoth Nyasaye, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, ma komulo piny, to piny leny, kendo ji duto modak e piny ywak. Piny duto tingʼore malo, bangʼe to opie ka aora Nael man Misri!

6 Who is building His upper chambers in the heavens; As for His troop, On earth He has founded it, Who is calling for the waters of the sea, And pours them out on the face of the land, YHWH [is] His Name.

Jehova Nyasaye gero ute e polo kendo orenjo mise mag polo e piny, bangʼe oluongo pi nam mondo obi kendo oologi e piny, Jehova Nyasaye e nyinge.

7 “Are you not as sons of Cushim to Me, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH. “Did I not bring Israel up out of the land of Egypt? And the Philistines from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir?

“Donge jo-Israel chalo mana gi jo-Kush?” Jehova Nyasaye owacho. “Donge an ema ne agolo jo-Israel koa Misri, jo-Filistia koa Kaftor, kendo jo-Aram koa Kir?

8 Behold, [the] eyes of Lord YHWH [are] on the sinful kingdom, And I have destroyed it from off the face of the ground, Only, I do not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” A declaration of YHWH.

“Adier wangʼ Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto rango pinyruoth motimo richo. Abiro ketho pinyruodhno e wangʼ piny, to kata kamano, ok anatiek joka Jakobo duto,” Jehova Nyasaye ema owacho.

9 “For behold, I am commanding, And I have shaken among all the nations the house of Israel, As [one] shakes with a sieve, And there does not fall a grain [to] the earth.

“Anagol chik kendo abiro piedho jo-Israel, e kind ogendini duto, ka cham mipiedho e odheru, kendo kata wangʼ cham achiel ok nolwar piny.

10 By sword all sinners of My people die, Who are saying, Evil does not overtake, or go before, For our sakes.

Joga duto ma joketho ibiro nego gi ligangla, kata mana mago mawacho ni, ‘Masira ok noyudwa kata chopo kuomwa.’

11 In that day I raise the dwelling place of David that is fallen, And I have repaired their breaches, And I raise up its ruins, And I have built it up as in days of old,

“Chiengʼno anachung od Daudi mosepodho. Analos ohingane kod kuondene momukore duto. Anachak agere mi ochal kaka, ne entie chon,

12 So that they possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations on whom My Name is called,” A declaration of YHWH—the doer of this.

mondo jo-Israel okaw jo-Edom modongʼ kaka margi kod ogendini mamoko maluongo nyinga,” Jehova Nyasaye mabiro miyo gima kamano timore ema owacho.

13 “Behold, days are coming,” A declaration of YHWH, “And the plowman has come near to the reaper, And the treader of grapes to the scatterer of seed, And the mountains have dropped juice, And all the hills melt.

Jehova Nyasaye wacho niya, “Ndalo biro ma cham biro bedo mangʼeny, ibiro golo pur ka ji pod keyo, kendo mzabibu nonyagi mathoth, kendo gibiro keto kodhi ka ji pod loso divai. Yiend mzabibu mangʼeny maber nonyag mathoth e gode duto mi unubed gi divai mangʼeny.

14 And I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel, And they have built desolate cities, and inhabited, And have planted vineyards, and drunk their wine, And made gardens, and eaten their fruit.

Bangʼe abiro miyo joga Israel duogi. “Kendo gibiro gero miechgi mane olokore gundni ma ginidagie, eka gibiro pidho yiend mzabibu, kendo madho divai mare. Gibiro puro puothegi, kendo chamo nyak margi.

15 And I have planted them on their own ground, And they are not plucked up anymore from off their own ground, That I have given to them,” said your God YHWH!

Abiro guro jo-Israel e pinygi mane amiyogi, kendo onge ngʼama nochak ogolgi kendo,” Jehova Nyasaye ma Nyasachi owacho.
