Amos 7
1 Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! [he was] forming locusts at [the] beginning of [the] coming up of the spring-crop and there! a spring-crop after [the] mowings of the king.
主耶和華指示我一件事：為王割菜之後，菜又發生；剛發生的時候，主造蝗蟲。
2 And it will be if it had finished to eat [the] vegetation of the land and I said O Lord Yahweh forgive please who? will he stand Jacob for [is] small he.
蝗蟲吃盡那地的青物，我就說：「主耶和華啊，求你赦免；因為雅各微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？」
3 He relented Yahweh on this not it will be he said Yahweh.
耶和華就後悔說：「這災可以免了。」
4 Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! [was] calling for conducting a case by fire [the] Lord Yahweh and it consumed [the] deep great and it consumed the portion of land.
主耶和華又指示我一件事：他命火來懲罰以色列，火就吞滅深淵，險些將地燒滅。
5 And I said O Lord Yahweh cease please who? will he stand Jacob for [is] small he.
我就說：「主耶和華啊，求你止息；因為雅各微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？」
6 He relented Yahweh on this also it not it will be he said [the] Lord Yahweh.
耶和華就後悔說：「這災也可免了。」
7 Thus he showed me and there! [the] Lord [was] standing on a wall of tin and [was] in hand his tin.
他又指示我一件事：有一道牆是按準繩建築的，主手拿準繩站在其上。
8 And he said Yahweh to me what? [are] you seeing O Amos and I said tin and he said [the] Lord here I [am] about to put tin in [the] midst of people my Israel not I will repeat again to pass by it.
耶和華對我說：「阿摩司啊，你看見甚麼？」我說：「看見準繩。」主說：「我要吊起準繩在我民以色列中，我必不再寬恕他們。
9 And they will be made desolate [the] high places of Isaac and [the] sanctuaries of Israel they will be waste and I will arise on [the] house of Jeroboam with the sword.
以撒的邱壇必然淒涼；以色列的聖所必然荒廢。我必興起，用刀攻擊耶羅波安的家。」
10 And he sent Amaziah [the] priest of Beth-el to Jeroboam [the] king of Israel saying he has conspired on you Amos in [the] midst of [the] house of Israel not it is able the land to endure all words his.
伯特利的祭司亞瑪謝打發人到以色列王耶羅波安那裏，說：「阿摩司在以色列家中圖謀背叛你；他所說的一切話，這國擔當不起；
11 For thus he has said Amos by the sword he will die Jeroboam and Israel certainly it will go into exile from on land its.
因為阿摩司如此說：『耶羅波安必被刀殺；以色列民定被擄去離開本地。』」
12 And he said Amaziah to Amos O seer go flee yourself to [the] land of Judah and eat there bread and there you will prophesy.
亞瑪謝又對阿摩司說：「你這先見哪，要逃往猶大地去，在那裏糊口，在那裏說預言，
13 And Beth-el not you must repeat again to prophesy for [is] a sanctuary of a king it and [is] a house of kingdom it.
卻不要在伯特利再說預言；因為這裏有王的聖所，有王的宮殿。」
14 And he answered Amos and he said to Amaziah not [am] a prophet I and not [am] a son of a prophet I for [was] a herdsman I and a fig picker of sycamores.
阿摩司對亞瑪謝說：「我原不是先知，也不是先知的門徒。我是牧人，又是修理桑樹的。
15 And he took me Yahweh from after the flock and he said to me Yahweh go prophesy to people my Israel.
耶和華選召我，使我不跟從羊群，對我說：『你去向我民以色列說預言。』
16 And therefore hear [the] word of Yahweh you [are] saying not you must prophesy on Israel and not you must prophesy on [the] house of Isaac.
亞瑪謝啊，現在你要聽耶和華的話。你說：『不要向以色列說預言，也不要向以撒家滴下預言。』
17 Therefore thus he says Yahweh wife your in the city she will be a prostitute and sons your and daughters your by the sword they will fall and land your with measuring-line it will be divided and you on ground unclean you will die and Israel certainly it will go into exile from on land its.
所以耶和華如此說：『你的妻子必在城中作妓女；你的兒女必倒在刀下。你的地必有人用繩子量了分取；你自己必死在污穢之地。以色列民定被擄去離開本地。』」
