< Amos 6 >
1 Alas for the careless in Zion, and for them who put confidence in the mountain of Samaria, —the distinguished among the first group of nations, to whom came in the house of Israel.
Hankàñe ry mierañerañe e Tsione ao, naho o mipalitse ami’ty vohi’ i Someroneo, o roandriam-pifeheañe valoha’e iatoa’ ty anjomba’ Israeleo!
2 Pass ye over to Calneh, and see, and go on from thence to Hamath the great, —and go down to Gath of the Philistines, are they better than these kingdoms? or their boundary larger than your boundary?
Mionjona mb’e Kalnè mb’eo le isao, akia henane zay mb’e Kamate jabajabay; vaho mizotsoa mb’e Gate nte-Pilistiy mb’eo. Ho soa te amy fifeheañe retiañe hao iereo? mandikoatse ty efe-tane’ areo hao ty a iareo?
3 Ye who are putting far away the day of calamity, —but bringing near the abode of violence:
Ry mampihànkañe i andron-kankàñey vaho mampitotoke i fiambesan-karotsahañey;
4 Who are lying on beds of ivory, and sprawling on their couch of pleasure, —and eating the well-fed of the flock, and the fatted calves out of the midst of the stalls:
o mitsalalampatse am-pandreañe nihamineñe hafotia-nife naho mihitsy an-kidori’ iareo, vaho mikama anak’añondry boak’ amy lia-raikey naho sarake boak’ añivon-jolokeo;
5 Who are bawling at the bidding of the harp, —like David, have they invented for themselves instruments of song:
o mititike marovany arahem-peo vaho mamoroñe raham-pititihañe, manahake i Davideo;
6 Who are quaffing bowls of wine, and, with the best of oils, anointing themselves, —and are not afflicted for the injury of Joseph: —
o minon-divay an-tsini-hara naho mihosotse menake soao, fe tsy iroveta’e ty hasotria’ Iosefe.
7 Therefore, at once, shall they go into exile among the first of the exiles, —so shall be disturbed the revelry of sprawlers.
ie amy zao, hasese mb’an-drohy mb’eo ho mpiaolom-pirohy, vaho hafahañe añe ty sabadida’ o mpihity an-telo-antarao.
8 Sworn hath the Lord, Yahweh, by his own life, Declareth Yahweh, God of hosts, abhorring am I, the grandeur of Jacob, and, his palaces, I hate, —therefore will I cast off the city and the fulness thereof.
Fa nifanta amam-bata’e t’Iehovà, Talè; le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, Hejeko ty fiebotsebora’ Iakobe, naho mampangorý ahy o anjomba’eo: aa le hatoloko añe i rovay rekets’ o ama’e iabio.
9 And it shall come to pass, though there be left remaining ten men in one house, yet shall they die;
Ie henane zay, naho lahilahy folo ty sisa añ’anjomba raike, fonga hihomake.
10 And a man’s near of kin, even he who is about to burn the bones, shall carry him out of the house, when he shall say to him that is in the hinder parts of the house—Are there yet any with thee? and he shall say—No one. Then shall he say—Hush! for we must not invoke the name of Yahweh.
Ho rambese’ i rahalahin-drae’e kiraikiraike iereo hañakara’e añ’anjomba’e ao hañoroa’e, le ty hoe ty hanoe’e amy añ’anjomba aoy, Mbe ama’e hao irehe? le ty hoe ty hatoi’ ty ao, Aiy! vaho hoe ka i raikey. Mianjiña, fa tsy volañeñe ty tahina’ Iehovà.
11 For lo! Yahweh, is giving command, and will smite the great house into ruins, —and the little house with clefts.
Inao fa handily t’Iehovà te ho tseratseraheñe o anjombao vaho ho hotohotoeñe o kibohotseo.
12 Shall horses run upon crag? or will a man plough [there] with oxen? For ye have turned to poison the sentence of justice, and the fruit of righteousness, to wormwood:
Hilay ambatovato hao o soavalao? hitari-dasarý eo reketse katràka hao t’indaty? Mañino te nafote’ areo ho voreke ty havañonañe, vaho ho vahon-tsoy ty vokan-kavantañañe?
13 Who rejoice in a thing of nought, —who say, Have we not by our own strength, taken to ourselves horns?
Ry mpirebek’ amo raha tsy vente’eo, manao ty hoe: Tsy ty haozara’ay avao hao ty nahavontititse tsifa?
14 For behold me! raising up against you, O house of Israel, Declareth Yahweh, the God of hosts—a nation! And they shall crush you, from the entering in of Hamath, unto the torrent-bed of the waste plain.
Inao arè, ry anjomba’ Israeleo te hatroako haname anahareo ty fifeheañe, hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, le ho silofe’ iereo boak’ am-piziliha’ i Kamate eo pak’ an-tsaka’ Arabà añe.
