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.
Palabras de Amós, de los pastores de Tecoa, (o sea), visiones que tuvo en orden a Israel, en los días de Ocías, rey de Judá, y en los días de Jeroboam, hijo de Joás, rey de Israel; dos años antes del terremoto.
2 He said: "YHWH 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."
Dijo: “Ruge Yahvé desde Sión, desde Jerusalén hace oír su voz; estarán de luto los pastos de los pastores, y se secará la cumbre del Carmelo.”
3 Thus says YHWH: "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;
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Damasco, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque trillaron a Galaad con trillos de hierro,
4 but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
enviaré fuego contra la casa de Hazael, que consumirá los palacios de Benhadad,
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 YHWH.
quebraré los cerrojos de Damasco, extirparé del valle de Avén a los habitantes y de Bet-Edén a aquel que empuña el cetro; y el pueblo de Siria irá cautivo a Kir”, dice Yahvé.
6 Thus says YHWH: "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;
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Gaza, por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque se llevaron muchedumbres de cautivos para entregarlos a Edom,
7 but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its palaces.
enviaré fuego contra los muros de Gaza, que devorará sus palacios;
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 YHWH.
exterminaré de Azoto a los habitantes, y de Ascalón al que empuña el cetro; volveré mi mano contra Acarón, y perecerá el resto de los filisteos”, dice Yahvé, el Señor.
9 Thus says YHWH: "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;
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Tiro, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque entregaron a Edom muchedumbres de cautivos, y no se acordaron de la fraternal alianza,
10 but I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its palaces."
enviaré fuego contra los muros de Tiro, que devorará sus palacios.”
11 Thus says YHWH: "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;
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de Idumea, y por cuatro, no le doy perdón: Porque persiguió, espada en mano, a su hermano, ahogando la compasión, y porque en su ira no dejó de destrozar, guardando para siempre su rencor,
12 but I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah."
enviaré fuego contra Temán, que devorará los palacios de Bosra.”
13 Thus says YHWH: "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.
Así dice Yahvé: “Por tres pecados de los ammonitas, y por cuatro, no les doy perdón: Porque para extender sus términos rajaron a las encintas de Galaad,
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;
encenderé un fuego sobre los muros de Rabbá, que devorará sus palacios, entre los alaridos del día de la batalla, en medio del torbellino en el día de la tempestad;
15 and their king will go into captivity, he and his officials together," says YHWH.
y su rey irá al cautiverio, él y sus príncipes juntamente”, dice Yahvé.
