Amos 5

1 Hear ye this word which I take up for a lamentation over you, O house of Israel.

Hear the word this which I [am] lifting up on you a lamentation O house of Israel.

2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is cast down upon her land; there is none to raise her up.

She has fallen not she will repeat to rise [the] virgin of Israel she has been abandoned on own land her there not [is one who] raises up her.

3 For thus saith the Lord GOD: The city that went forth a thousand shall have an hundred left, and that which went forth an hundred shall have ten left, to the house of Israel.

For thus he says [the] Lord Yahweh the city which goes out a thousand it will have left a hundred and which goes out a hundred it will have left ten of [the] house of Israel.

4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:

For thus he says Yahweh to [the] house of Israel seek me and live.

5 but seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth-el shall come to nought.

And may not you seek Beth-el and Gilgal not you must go and Beer Sheba not you must pass over for Gilgal certainly it will go into exile and Beth-el it will become trouble.

6 Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and it devour and there be none to quench it in Beth-el:

Seek Yahweh and live lest he should rush like fire [the] house of Joseph and it will consume and not [one who] extinguishes [it] [will belong] to Beth-el.

7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and cast down righteousness to the earth;

O those [who] turn into wormwood justice and righteousness to the ground they thrust down.

8 [seek him] that maketh the Pleiades and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night; that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD is his name;

[the] maker of Pleiades and Orion and [the one who] turns into morning deep darkness and day night he makes dark the [one who] summons [the] waters of the sea and he poured out them on [the] surface of the earth [is] Yahweh name his.

9 that bringeth sudden destruction upon the strong, so that destruction cometh upon the fortress.

The [who] causes to flash devastation on [the] strong and devastation on a fortress it will come.

10 They hate him that reproveth in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

They hate in the gate [one who] reproves and [one who] speaks blameless they abhor.

11 Forasmuch therefore as ye trample upon the poor, and take exactions from him of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink the wine thereof.

Therefore because trample you on [the] poor and a portion of grain you take from him houses of hewn [stone] you have built and not you will dwell in them vineyards of delight you have planted and not you will drink wine their.

12 For I know how manifold are your transgressions, and how mighty are your sins; ye that afflict the just, that take a bribe, and that turn aside the needy in the gate [from their right].

For I know many transgressions your and numerous sins your O opposers of [the] righteous O takers of ransom and needy [people] in the gate they turn aside.

13 Therefore he that is prudent shall keep silence in such a time; for it is an evil time.

Therefore the prudent [person] at the time that he will be silent for [is] a time evil it.

14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye say.

Seek good and may not [it be] evil so that you will live and it may be thus Yahweh God of hosts [will be] with you just as you have said.

15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD, the God of hosts, will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

Hate evil and love good and set up in the gate justice perhaps he will show favor to Yahweh God of hosts [the] remnant of Joseph.

16 Therefore thus saith the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord: Wailing shall be in all the broad ways; and they shall say in all the streets, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.

Therefore thus he says Yahweh God of hosts [the] Lord [will be] in all [the] open places wailing and in all [the] streets people will say alas! alas! and people will call a farmer to mourning and wailing to [those who] know lamentation.

17 And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through the midst of thee, saith the LORD.

And [will be] in all [the] vineyards wailing for I will pass in midst your he says Yahweh.

18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! wherefore would ye have the day of the LORD? it is darkness, and not light.

Woe to! those [who] desire [the] day of Yahweh why? this to you [the] day of Yahweh it [will be] darkness and not light.

19 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

Just as he flees someone from before the lion and it meets him the bear and he goes the house and he leans hand his on the wall and it bites him the snake.

20 Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

¿ Not [be] darkness [will] [the] day of Yahweh and not light and gloomy and not brightness [will belong] to it.

21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I will take no delight in your solemn assemblies.

I hate I reject feasts your and not I delight in assemblies your.

22 Yea, though ye offer me your burnt offerings and meal offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.

That except you will offer up to me burnt offerings and grain offerings your not I will accept [them] and [the] peace offering of fatlings your not I will pay attention to.

23 Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.

Remove from with me [the] noise of songs your and [the] music of lyres your not I will listen to.

24 But let judgment roll down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

And it may roll on like water justice and righteousness like a wadi ever-flowing.

25 Did ye bring unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

¿ Sacrifices and grain offering[s] did you bring near to me in the wilderness forty year[s] O house of Israel.

26 Yea, ye have borne Siccuth your king and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.

And you will lift up Sikkuth king your and Kiyyun images your [the] star of gods your which you made for yourselves.

27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.

And I will send into exile you from beyond Damascus he says [is] Yahweh God of hosts name his.
