Amos 9

1 I SAW the Lord standing beside the altar: and he said, Smite the chapiters, that the thresholds may shake: and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.

Vidjeh Gospoda, a on stajaše na oltaru, i reèe: udari u gornji prag od vrata da se zatresu dovratnici, i rascijepi ih sve od vrha njihova; a što ostane iza njih pobiæu maèem; neæe uteæi izmeðu njih nijedan, niti æe se koji spasti.

2 Though they dig into hell, thence shall mine hand take them; and though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down. (Sheol h7585)

Da se zakopaju u najdonji kraj zemlje, odande æe ih uzeti ruka moja; i da izaðu na nebo, odande æu ih skinuti; (Sheol h7585)

3 And though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out thence; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, thence will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them.

I da se sakriju na vrh Karmila, naæi æu ih i uzeæu ih odande; i da se sakriju ispred mojih oèiju na dno morsko, ondje æu zapovjediti zmiji da ih ujede;

4 And though they go into captivity before their enemies, thence will I command the sword, and it shall slay them: and I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

Da otidu u ropstvo pred neprijateljima svojim, i ondje æu zapovjediti maèu da ih pobije, i obratiæu oèi svoje njima na zlo a ne na dobro.

5 For the Lord, the GOD of hosts, [is] he that toucheth the land and it melteth, and all that dwell therein shall mourn; and it shall rise up wholly like the River; and shall sink again, like the River of Egypt;

Jer Gospod Gospod nad vojskama kad se dotakne zemlje, ona se rastapa i tuže svi koji žive na njoj, i razljeva se sva kao rijeka i potapa se kao od rijeke Misirske.

6 [it is] he that buildeth his chambers in the heaven, and hath founded his vault upon the earth; he that calleth for the waters of the sea and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; the LORD is his name.

On je sagradio sebi klijeti na nebu i svod svoj osnovao na zemlji; zove vode morske i izljeva ih po zemlji; ime mu je Gospod.

7 Are ye not as the children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

Nijeste li mi, sinovi Izrailjevi, kao sinovi Etiopski? govori Gospod; ne izvedoh li Izrailja iz zemlje Misirske, a Filisteje iz Kaftora i Sirce iz Kira?

8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the face of the earth; saving that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the LORD.

Gle, oèi su Gospodnje upravljene na ovo grješno carstvo da ga zatrem sa zemlje; ali neæu sasvijem zatrti doma Jakovljeva, govori Gospod.

9 For, lo, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, like as [corn] is sifted in a sieve, yet shall not the least grain fall upon the earth.

Jer, evo, ja æu zapovjediti i razmetaæu meðu svijem narodima dom Izrailjev kao što se razmeæe žito u rešetu da ni zrno ne padne na zemlju.

10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, which say, The evil shall not overtake nor prevent us.

Od maèa æe poginuti svi grješnici izmeðu mojega naroda, koji govore: neæe doæi, niti æe nas zadesiti zlo.

11 In that day will I raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old;

U to æu vrijeme podignuti opali šator Davidov, i zatvoriæu mu pukotine, i opraviæu mu što je razvaljeno, i opet æu ga sagraditi kao što je bio prije,

12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all the nations, which are called by my name, saith the LORD that doeth this.

Da bi naslijedili ostatak Edomski i sve narode na koje se priziva ime moje, govori Gospod, koji èini ovo.

13 Behold, the days come, saith the LORD, that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed; and the mountains shall drop sweet wine, and all the hills shall melt.

Evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æe oraè stizati žeteoca, i koji gazi grožðe sijaèa, i gore æe kapati slatkim vinom, a svi æe se humovi rastapati.

14 And I will bring again the captivity of my people Israel, and they shall build the waste cities, and inhabit them; and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine thereof; they shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.

I povratiæu roblje naroda svojega Izrailja, i opet æe sagraditi puste gradove i naseliæe se, i nasadiæe vinograde i piti vino iz njih, i naèiniæe vrtove i jesti rod iz njih.

15 And I will plant them upon their land, and they shall no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them, saith the LORD thy God.

I posadiæu ih u zemlji njihovoj, i neæe se više išèupati iz zemlje svoje, koju im dadoh, govori Gospod Bog tvoj.
