< Amos 1 >

1 The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
テコアの牧者の中なるアモスの言 是はユダの王ウジヤの世 イスラエルの王ヨアシの子ヤラベアムの世 地震の二年前に彼が見されたる者にてイスラエルの事を論るなり 其言に云く
2 He said: "Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither."
ヱホバ、シオンより呼號りエルサレムより聲を出したまふ 牧者の牧塲は哀きカルメルの巓は枯る
3 Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed the pregnant women of Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;
ヱホバかく言たまふ ダマスコは三の罪あり 四の罪あれば我かならず之を罰して赦さじ 即ち彼らは鐵の打禾車をもてギレアデを打り
4 but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
我ハザエルの家に火を遣りベネハダデの宮殿を焚ん
5 I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the Valley of Wickedness, and him who holds the scepter from Beth Eden; and the people of Aram shall go into captivity to Kir," says Jehovah.
我ダマスコの關を碎きアベンの谷の中よりその居民を絶のぞきベテエデンの中より王の杖を執る者を絶のぞかん スリアの民は擄へられてキルにゆかん ヱホバこれを言ふ
6 Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Gaza, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they carried away captive the whole community, to deliver them up to Edom;
ヱホバかく言たまふ ガザは三の罪あり 四の罪あれば我かならず之を罰して赦さじ 即ち彼らは俘囚をことごとく曳ゆきてこれをエドムに付せり
7 but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its palaces.
我ガザの石垣の内に火を遣り一切の殿を焚ん
8 I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon; and I will turn my hand against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines will perish," says Jehovah.
我アシドドの中よりその居民を絶のぞきアシケロンの中より王の杖を執る者を絶除かん 我また手を反してエクロンを撃ん ペリシテ人の遺れる者亡ぶべし 主ヱホバこれを言ふ
9 Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Tyre, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they delivered up the whole community to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant;
ヱホバかく言たまふ ツロは三の罪あり 四の罪あれば我かならず之を罰して赦さじ 即ち彼らは俘囚をことごとくエドムに付しまた兄弟の契約を忘れたり
10 but I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its palaces."
我ツロの石垣の内に火を遣り一切の殿を焚ん
11 Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Edom, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity, and his anger raged continually, and he kept his wrath forever;
ヱホバかく言たまふ エドムは三の罪あり 四の罪あれば我かならず之を罰して赦さじ 即ち彼は劍をもてその兄弟を追ひ全く憐憫の情を斷ち恒に怒りて人を害し永くその憤恨をたくはへたり
12 but I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah."
我テマンに火を遣りポヅラの一切の殿を焚ん
13 Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of the people of Ammon, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead, that they may enlarge their border.
ヱホバかく言たまふ アンモンの人々は三の罪あり 四の罪あれば我かならず之を罰して赦さじ 即ち彼らはその國境を廣めんとてギレアデの孕める婦を剖たり
14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it will devour its palaces, with shouting in the day of battle, with a storm in the day of the whirlwind;
我ラバの石垣の内に火を放ちその一切の殿を焚ん 是は戰鬪の日に吶喊の聲をもて爲され暴風の日に旋風をもて爲されん
15 and their king will go into captivity, he and his officials together," says Jehovah.
彼らの王はその牧伯等と諸共に擄へられて往かん ヱホバこれを言ふ
