< Amos 2 >
1 Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Moab, And for four, will I not turn away his punishment; For he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime!
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta ti Moabu, àní fún mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà, nítorí ó ti sun ún, di eérú, egungun ọba Edomu,
2 But I will send a fire on Moab, Which shall devour the palaces of Kirioth; And Moab shall die amid tumults, Amid the war-shout, and the sound of the trumpet.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí orí Moabu èyí tí yóò jó àwọn ààfin Kerioti run. Moabu yóò sì kú pẹ̀lú ariwo pẹ̀lú igbe àti pẹ̀lú ìró ìpè.
3 I will destroy the judge from the midst of him, And slay all the princes with him, saith Jehovah.
Èmi yóò ké onídàájọ́ rẹ̀ kúrò, Èmi yóò sì pa gbogbo àwọn ọmọ-aládé rẹ́ nínú rẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
4 Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Judah, And for four, will I not turn away their punishment; For they have despised the law of Jehovah, And have not kept his statutes, And their idols have caused them to err, After which their fathers walked.
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí, “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta ti Juda, àní fún mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Nítorí wọn ti kọ òfin Olúwa sílẹ̀, wọn kò sì pa àwọn ìlànà rẹ̀ mọ́. Nítorí àwọn òrìṣà ti sì wọ́n lọ́nà, òrìṣà tí àwọn Baba ńlá wọn ń tẹ̀lé,
5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, Which shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
Èmi yóò rán iná sí orí Juda èyí tí yóò jó àwọn ààfin Jerusalẹmu run.”
6 Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, And for four, will I not turn away their punishment. For they sell the righteous for silver, And the needy for a pair of shoes;
Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa wí: “Nítorí ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ mẹ́ta Israẹli àní fún mẹ́rin, Èmi kò ní yí ìpinnu ìjìyà mi padà. Wọ́n ta olódodo fún fàdákà àti aláìní fún bàtà ẹsẹ̀ méjèèjì.
7 They pant for the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, And pervert the cause of the afflicted. The son and the father go in to the same damsel, To dishonor my holy name.
Wọ́n fi ẹsẹ̀ tẹ orí àwọn tálákà mọ́lẹ̀, bí wọ́n ti ń tẹ erùpẹ̀ ilẹ̀ tí wọ́n ko sì ṣe òtítọ́ si àwọn tí a ni lára. Baba àti ọmọ ń wọlé tọ wúńdíá kan náà, láti ba orúkọ mímọ́ mi jẹ́.
8 They lay themselves down upon pledged garments Near every altar; And drink wine, procured by fines, In the house of their gods.
Wọ́n dùbúlẹ̀ lẹ́bàá a pẹpẹ, lórí aṣọ tí wọ́n fi jẹ́ ẹ̀jẹ́ ní ilé òrìṣà wọn wọ́n sì mu ọtí tí wọ́n san fún ìtánràn.
9 Yet I destroyed the Amorites before them, Who were tall as the cedars, And strong as the oaks. I destroyed their fruit above, And their roots beneath.
“Mo pa àwọn ará Amori run níwájú wọn gíga ẹni tí ó dàbí igi kedari. Òun sì le koko bí igi óákù mo pa èso rẹ̀ run láti òkè wá àti egbò rẹ̀ láti ìsàlẹ̀ wá.
10 I brought you up from the land of Egypt, And led you in the desert forty years, That ye might possess the land of the Amorite.
Èmi mú un yín gòkè láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti wá, mo sì sìn yín la aginjù já ní ogójì ọdún láti fi ilẹ̀ àwọn ará Amori fún un yín.
11 Of your sons also I raised up prophets, And of your young men Nazarites; Is it not even so, O ye sons of Israel? saith Jehovah.
“Èmi sì tún gbé àwọn wòlíì dìde láàrín àwọn ọmọ yín àti láàrín àwọn ọ̀dọ́mọkùnrin yín láti jẹ Nasiri èyí kò ha jẹ́ òtítọ́ bí ará Israẹli?” ni Olúwa wí.
12 But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink, And commanded the prophets, Saying, Prophesy not!
“Ṣùgbọ́n ẹ̀yin fún àwọn Nasiri ní ọtí mu e sì pàṣẹ fún àwọn wòlíì kí wọ́n má ṣe sọtẹ́lẹ̀.
13 Behold, I will press you down, As a wagon presseth down that is full of sheaves.
“Ní báyìí, èmi yóò tẹ̀ yín mọ́lẹ̀ bí kẹ̀kẹ́ tí ó kún fún ìtí ti í tẹ̀.
14 And flight shall fail the swift, And the strong shall not exert his strength, And the mighty shall not save his life,
Ẹni tí ó yára bí àṣá kò ní rí ọ̀nà àbáyọ alágbára kò ní le è dúró lé agbára rẹ̀ jagunjagun kì yóò le gba ẹ̀mí ara rẹ̀ là.
15 And he that handleth the bow shall not stand, And the swift of foot shall not save himself, And the horseman shall not escape with his life.
Tafàtafà kì yóò dúró lórí ẹsẹ̀ rẹ̀ bẹ́ẹ̀ ni ẹni tí ó gún ẹṣin kì yóò gba ẹ̀mí ara rẹ̀ là.
16 He that is strong in heart among the mighty Shall, in that day, flee away naked, saith Jehovah.
Àní jagunjagun tí ó gbóyà jùlọ yóò sálọ ní ìhòhò ní ọjọ́ náà,” ni Olúwa wí.
