Amos 3
1 Hear this word that YHWH has spoken against you, children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying:
Yaa saba Israaʼel, dubbii Waaqayyo isiniin mormuudhaan, maatii ani biyya Gibxii baasee fide hundaan mormuudhaan dubbate kana dhagaʼaa:
2 "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins."
“Ani maatiiwwan lafa irra jiraatan hunda keessaa isin qofa filadheera; kanaafuu ani cubbuu keessan hundaaf isinan adaba.”
3 Do two walk together, unless they have agreed?
Yoo walii galan malee namoonni lama wajjin ni deemuu?
4 Will a lion roar in the thicket, when he has no prey? Does a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
Leenci tokko yoo waan adamsu hin argatin bosona keessaa ni aadaa? Inni yoo waa qabate malee holqa isaa keessaa ni aadaa?
5 Can a bird fall in a trap on the earth, where no snare is set for him? Does a snare spring up from the ground, when there is nothing to catch?
Simbirri tokko lafa kiyyoon hin kaaʼaminitti kiyyoo keessa ni seentii? Kiyyoon tokko yoo wanni qabamu hin jirre akkasumatti lafaa ni utaalaa?
6 Does the trumpet alarm sound in a city, without the people being afraid? Does disaster happen to a city, unless YHWH has done it?
Yoo magaalaa keessatti malakanni afuufame, namoonni hin raafamanii? Balaan magaalaa tokkotti yoo dhufe, Waaqayyotu waan sana fide mitii?
7 Surely YHWH will do nothing, unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.
Dhugumaan Waaqayyo Gooftaan utuu tajaajiltoota isaa raajotatti hin mulʼisin waan tokko illee hin hojjetu.
8 The lion has roared. Who will not fear? YHWH has spoken. Who can but prophesy?
Leenci aadeera; eenyutu hin sodaanne ree? Waaqayyo Gooftaan dubbateera; yoos eenyutu raajii hin dubbanne ree?
9 Proclaim in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, "Assemble yourselves on the mountain of Samaria, and see what unrest is in her, and what oppression is among them."
Daʼannoo Ashdoodiitii fi daʼannoo Gibxitti akkana jedhaa labsaa: “Tulluuwwan Samaariyaa irratti walitti qabamaa; jeequmsa guddaa ishee keessa jiruu fi cunqursaa uummata ishee keessa jiru ilaalaa.”
10 "Indeed they do not know to do right," says YHWH, "Who hoard plunder and loot in their palaces."
“Warri daʼannoo isaanii keessatti waan boojiʼamee fi waan saamame kuufatan akka itti waan qajeelaa hojjetan hin beekan” jedha Waaqayyo.
11 Therefore thus says YHWH: "An adversary will surround the land; and he will pull down your strongholds, and your fortresses will be plundered."
Kanaafuu Waaqayyo Gooftaan akkana jedha: “Diinni biyya keessan marsa; jabina keessan gad buusa; daʼannoowwan keessanis ni saama.”
12 Thus says YHWH: "As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so shall the children of Israel be rescued who sit in Samaria on the corner of a couch, and on the silken cushions of a bed."
Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Akkuma tikseen tokko lafee miilla lamaanii yookaan fiixee gurraa qofa afaan leencaatii buusu sana, Israaʼeloonni Samaariyaa keessa, qarqara siree isaanii irra, Damaasqoo keessas siree isaanii dinkii irra taaʼan akkasuma ni baraaramu.”
13 "Listen, and testify against the house of Jacob," says YHWH, the God of hosts.
“Waan kana dhagaʼaatii mana Yaaqoobitti dhugaa baʼaa” jedha Gooftaan, Waaqayyo Waaqni Waan Hunda Dandaʼu.
14 "For in the day that I visit the transgressions of Israel on him, I will also visit the altars of Bethel; and the horns of the altar will be cut off, and fall to the ground.
“Guyyaa ani cubbuu isheetiif jedhee Israaʼelin adabutti, iddoowwan aarsaa Beetʼeel nan barbadeessa; gaanfawwan iddoo aarsaas caccabanii lafatti ni harcaʼu.
15 I will strike the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory will perish, and the great houses will have an end," says YHWH.
Ani mana gannaatii fi mana bonaa nan diiga; manneen ilka arbaatiin miidhagfaman ni diigamu; manneen gurguddaanis ni balleeffamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
