< Amos 9 >
1 I saw Jehovah standing beside the altar, and he said, "Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake; and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will kill the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.
Videl sem Gospoda stati na oltarju in rekel je: »Udari vratno preklado, da se bodo podboji lahko tresli, in ureži jih na glavi, vse izmed njih in jaz bom zadnje izmed njih ubil z mečem in kdor izmed njih beži, ne bo pobegnil proč in kdor se izmed njih umika, ne bo osvobojen.
2 Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. (Sheol )
Čeprav kopljejo v pekel, jih bo moja roka vzela od tam. Čeprav plezajo gor do nebes, jih bom od tam privedel dol. (Sheol )
3 Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out there; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.
Čeprav se skrijejo na vrhu Karmela, jih poiščem in vzamem od tam. Čeprav so skriti pred mojim pogledom na dnu morja, bom tam zapovedal kači in ta jih bo pičila.
4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for disaster, and not for good.
Čeprav gredo v ujetništvo pred svojimi sovražniki, bom tja poslal meč in ta jih bo ubil in svoje oči bom naravnal nanje za zlo in ne za dobro.«
5 For Jehovah of hosts is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.
Gospod Bog nad bojevniki je tisti, ki se dotika dežele in ta se bo stopila in vsi, ki prebivajo v njej, bodo žalovali. In ta se bo vzdignila v celoti kakor poplava in potopljena bo kakor z egiptovsko poplavo.
6 It is he who builds his upper chamber in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth; Jehovah is his name.
On je tisti, ki gradi svoja nadstropja v nebesih in je utemeljil svoje krdelo na zemlji. On, ki kliče za morskimi vodami in jih izliva na obličje zemlje. Gospod je njegovo ime.
7 Are you not like the people of Ethiopia to me, children of Israel?" says Jehovah. "Haven't I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir?
» Ali mi niste kakor otroci Etiopijcev, oh Izraelovi otroci?« govori Gospod: »Mar nisem jaz Izraela privedel gor iz egiptovske dežele? In Filistejce iz Kaftorja in Sirce iz Kira?
8 Look, the eyes of Jehovah are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth; except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob," says Jehovah.
Glejte, oči Gospoda Boga so nad grešnim kraljestvom in uničil ga bom izpred obličja zemlje; le, da ne bom popolnoma uničil Jakobove hiše, « govori Gospod.
9 "For, look, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, as one sifts with a sieve, but not even a pebble will fall to the ground.
»Kajti glejte, zapovedal bom in Izraelovo hišo bom presejal med vse narode, kakor je žito presejano na situ, vendar niti najmanjše zrno ne bo padlo na zemljo.
10 All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, 'Evil won't overtake nor meet us.'
Vsi grešniki mojega ljudstva bodo umrli pod mečem, ki pravijo: ›Zlo nas ne bo dohitelo niti nas ne bo srečalo.‹
11 On that day I will rebuild the tabernacle of David that has fallen, and repair its broken places, and I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it as in the days of old;
Na tisti dan bom vzdignil Davidovo šotorsko svetišče, ki je padlo in zaprl njegove vrzeli. In vzdignil bom njegove ruševine in zgradil ga bom kakor v dneh davnine,
12 that the rest of humanity may seek after Jehovah, and all the nations who are called by my name," says Jehovah who does this.
da bodo lahko vzeli v last preostanek Edóma in vseh poganov, ki so imenovani z mojim imenom, « govori Gospod, ki to dela.
13 "Look, the days come," says Jehovah, "that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.
»Glejte, pridejo dnevi, « govori Gospod, »ko bo orač prehitel žanjca in tlačitelj grozdja tistega, ki seje seme, in gore bodo kapljale sladko vino in vsi hribi se bodo topili.
14 I will bring my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. They shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
Ponovno bom privedel ujetništvo svojega ljudstva Izraela in zgradili bodo opustošena mesta in jih poselili, in sadili bodo vinograde in pili njihovo vino; prav tako bodo naredili vrtove in jedli njihov sad.
15 I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them," says Jehovah your God.
Jaz jih bom zasadil na njihovi deželi in ne bodo več potegnjeni iz svoje dežele, ki sem jim jo dal, « govori Gospod, tvoj Bog.
