Amos 2
1 Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Moab, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because he burned the bones of the King of Edom to lime,
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny fahotana telon’ i Moaba, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria nodorany ho sokay ny taolan’ ny mpanjakan’ i Edoma;
2 Therefore will I send a fire into Moab, which shall devour the palaces of Kerioth—and Moab, shall die with tumult, with war- cry, with the sound of a horn;
Fa hataoko afo ao Moaba, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Kiriota izany; Ary Moaba ho faty amin’ ny tabataba sy amin’ ny akora ary ny fanenon’ ny anjomara;
3 And I will cut off the judge out of her midst, and, all her rulers, will I slay with him, saith Yahweh.
Ary hofoanako tsy hisy mpitsara ao aminy, ary hiaraka hovonoiko izy sy ireo mpanapaka rehetra ao aminy, hoy Jehovah.
4 Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Judah, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because they have rejected the law of Yahweh, and, his statutes, have not kept, but their falsehoods, have led them astray, after the which their fathers, did walk,
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny fahotana telon’ i Joda, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria nataony tsinontsinona ny lalàn’ i Jehovah, ary ny didiny tsy notandremany, ary nampahadiso azy ny laingany, izay fanaon’ ny razany;
5 Therefore will I send a fire upon Judah, —which shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
Fa haterako afo ao Joda, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Jerosalema izany.
6 Thus, saith Yahweh, Because of three transgressions of Israel, and because of four, will I not turn it back, —Because they have sold—for silver—the righteous, and the needy—for a pair of shoes:
Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny fahotana telon’ Isiraely, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria namidiny volafotsy ny olona marina sy kapa iray lomisy ny malahelo,
7 Who strive to bring the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and, the way of the oppressed, they pervert, —Yea, a man and his own father, go in unto the maid, to profane my holy Name!
Ary mihanahana mitsiriritra ny vovo-tany eo an-dohan’ ny malahelo izy sady mamily ny alehan’ ny mpandefitra, ary olona mianaka dia samy mandry amin’ ny zazavavy iray ihany mba handoto ny anarako masìna;
8 And, on pledged garments, they recline, beside every altar, —and, exacted wine, do they drink, in the house of their God.
Amin’ ny lamba azony tamin’ ny tsatòka izy no mitsilailay eny anilan’ ny alitara rehetra, ary misotro divay novidina tamin’ ny sazy ao an-tranon’ ireo andriamaniny izy.
9 Yet it was, I, who destroyed the Amorite, from before them, whose height was, like the height of cedars, and, strong, was he, like the oaks, —but I destroyed his fruit above, and his roots beneath.
Nefa Izaho no nandringana ny Amorita teo anoloany, dia olona izay lava tsanganana toy ny hazo sedera sy natanjaka toy ny ôka; Eny, nosimbako ny voany teny ambony sy ny fatany tao ambany.
10 And it was, I, who brought you up out of the land of Egypt, —and led you in the desert, forty years, to take possession of the land of the Amorites;
Ary Izaho no nitondra anareo niakatra avy tany amin’ ny tany Egypta sady nitari-dalana anareo efa-polo taona tany an-efitra, mba handovanareo ny tanin’ ny Amorita,
11 And I raised up, of your sons, for prophets, and, of your young men, for Nazirites, —Was it not even so, ye sons of Israel? Demandeth Yahweh;
Ary ny zanakalahinareo nisy natsangako ho mpaminany, ary ny zatovonareo ho Nazirita. Tsy izany va no izy, ry Zanak’ Isiraely? hoy Jehovah.
12 And yet ye caused the Nazirites to drink wine, —and, on the prophet, laid ye command, saying, Ye shall not prophesy!
Kanjo nampisotroinareo divay ny Nazirita, ary ny mpaminany noraranareo hoe: Aza maminany.
13 Lo! I, am pressed under you, —as a full cart is pressed by its sheaves,
Indro, Izaho no hitambesatra aminareo toy ny fitambesatry ny sariety feno amboara.
14 Therefore shall flight, perish, from the swift, and, the mighty, shall not invigorate his strength, —nor shall, the hero, escape with his life;
Koa tsy ho afa-mandositra ny faingam-pandeha, ny mahery tsy hampiseho hery, ary ny lehilahy mahery tsy hahavonjy ny ainy;
15 Nor, he that handleth the bow, make a stand, and, the swift on his feet, shall not escape, —nor, he that rideth on a horse, escape with his life:
Izay mitana tsipìka tsy hahajanona, ary ny faingan-tongotra tsy hahavonjy tena, izay mitaingin-tsoavaly tsy hahavonjy ny ainy;
16 Nay, he that is stout in his heart, among heroes, naked, shall flee, in that day, Declareth Yahweh.
Ary na dia izay sahy ao amin’ ny mahery aza dia handositra mitanjaka amin’ izany andro izany, hoy Jehovah.
