< 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.
‌ʻOku pehē hono fakahā mai kiate au ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua; pea vakai, naʻa ne ngaohi ʻae ngaahi heʻe ʻi he kamataʻanga ʻoe tupu hake ʻae taʻu tokamui; pea vakai, ko e tokamui ia hili ʻae tuʻusi maʻa e tuʻi.
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.
Pea naʻe hoko, hili ʻenau kai ʻo ʻosi ʻae mohuku ʻoe fonua, pea ne u pehē, “ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, ʻoku ou kole kiate koe, ke ke fakamolemole: ʻe toetuʻu ʻa Sēkope ia hai? He ʻoku siʻi ia.”
3 He relented Yahweh on this not it will be he said Yahweh.
Naʻe fakatomala ʻa Sihova ʻi he meʻa ni: ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova, “ʻE ʻikai hoko ia.”
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.
‌ʻOku pehē hono fakahā mai kiate au ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua; pea vakai, naʻe ui ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua ke tau ʻaki ʻae afi, pea naʻa ne kai ʻae moana lahi, pea ne folo ʻae vahe ʻe taha?
5 And I said O Lord Yahweh cease please who? will he stand Jacob for [is] small he.
Pea naʻaku toki pehē, ʻE Sihova ko e ʻOtua, “ʻOku ou kole kiate koe ke tuku ʻā: ʻe toetuʻu ʻa Sēkope ʻia hai? He ʻoku siʻi ia.”
6 He relented Yahweh on this also it not it will be he said [the] Lord Yahweh.
Naʻe fakatomala ʻa Sihova ʻi he meʻa ni: ʻoku pehē ʻe he ʻEiki ko e ʻOtua, “ʻE ʻikai hoko eni foki.”
7 Thus he showed me and there! [the] Lord [was] standing on a wall of tin and [was] in hand his tin.
Naʻe pehē ʻene fakahā mai ia kiate au: pea vakai, naʻe tuʻu ʻae ʻEiki ʻi he fukahi ʻā naʻe ngaohi ki he afo fuofua, pea naʻe ʻai ʻae afo fuofua ʻi hono nima.
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.
Pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, “ʻAmosi, ko e hā ʻoku ke mamata ai?” Pea naʻaku pehē, “Ko e afo fuofua.” Pea ne pehē ʻe he ʻEiki, “Vakai, te u ʻai ʻae afo fuofua ki he lotolotonga ʻo hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli: ʻikai te u toe laka ʻiate kinautolu:
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.
Pea ʻe lala ʻae ngaahi potu māʻolunga ʻo ʻAisake, pea ʻe ngaongao ʻae ngaahi falelotu ʻo ʻIsileli; pea te u tuʻu hake mo e heletā ki he fale ʻo Selopoami.”
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.
Pea ne toki fekau ʻe ʻAmasia ko e taulaʻeiki ʻi Peteli, kia Selopoami ko e tuʻi ʻo ʻIsileli, ʻo pehē, “Kuo angatuʻu ʻa ʻAmosi kiate koe ʻi he lotolotonga ʻoe fale ʻo ʻIsileli: ʻe ʻikai faʻa kātaki ʻe he fonua ʻa ʻene ngaahi lea kotoa pē.
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.
Koeʻuhi ʻoku pehē ʻe ʻAmosi, ‘ʻE mate ʻa Selopoami ʻi he heletā, pea ko e moʻoni ʻe taki pōpula ʻa ʻIsileli mei honau fonua ʻonautolu.’”
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.
Pea ne pehē foki ʻe ʻAmasia kia ʻAmosi, “ʻA koe ʻoku mamata meʻa, ʻalu, puna atu ki he fonua ʻo Siuta, pea kai ai ʻae mā, mo kikite ai:
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.
Kae ʻoua naʻa toe kikite ʻi Peteli he ko e falelotu ia ʻoe tuʻi, pea ko e nofoʻanga ʻoe tuʻi.”
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.
Pea naʻe tali ʻe ʻAmosi, ʻo ne pehē kia ʻAmasia, “Naʻe ʻikai ko e palōfita au, pe ko e foha ʻo ha palōfita; ko e tangata tauhimanu au, pea ko e tānaki [au ]ʻoe fua ʻoe sukamino:
15 And he took me Yahweh from after the flock and he said to me Yahweh go prophesy to people my Israel.
Pea naʻe ʻave au ʻe Sihova ʻi heʻeku muimui ki he fanga manu, pea naʻe pehē ʻe Sihova kiate au, ‘ʻAlu, ʻo kikite ki hoku kakai ko ʻIsileli.’
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.
Pea ko eni, fanongo koe ki he folofola ʻa Sihova: ʻoku ke pehē, ‘ʻOua naʻa kikite ki ʻIsileli, pea ʻoua naʻa tō [hoʻo lea ]ki he fale ʻo ʻAisake.’
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.
Ko ia ʻoku pehē ʻe Sihova; ‘ʻE hoko ho uaifi ko e fefine feʻauaki ʻi he kolo, pea ko ho ngaahi foha mo ho ngaahi ʻofefine, ʻe tō ʻi he heletā, pea ʻe vahevahe ho fonua ʻaki ʻae afo; pea te ke mate ʻi ha fonua pani ʻuli: pea ʻe ʻalu moʻoni ʻa ʻIsileli mei hono fonua ki he pōpula.’”
