Amos 8
1 Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! a basket of summer fruit.
Konsa Senyè BONDYE a te montre mwen, e gade byen, te gen yon panyen fwi gran sezon.
2 And he said what? [are] you seeing O Amos and I said a basket of summer fruit and he said Yahweh to me it has come the end to people my Israel not I will repeat again to pass by it.
Li te di: “Kisa ou wè, Amos?” Epi mwen te di: “Yon panyen fwi gran sezon.” Konsa, SENYÈ a te di mwen: “Lafen gen tan rive pou pèp Mwen an, Israël. Mwen p ap pwoteje yo ankò.
3 And they will wail songs of [the] temple on the day that [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh many the corpse[s] in every place someone will throw hush!
Kantik a tanp la va tounen chan lamantasyon nan jou sa a,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a. “Kadav yo va anpil. Nan chak andwa, yo va jete yo deyò an silans.
4 Hear this O those [who] trample on [the] needy and to put an end to ([the] afflicted [people] of *Q(K)*) [the] land.
Tande sa, nou menm k ap vale malere yo nèt, pou mete fen a tout pòv yo,
5 Saying when? will it pass the new moon so we may sell grain grain and the sabbath so we may open grain to make small an ephah and to make great a shekel and to falsify balances of deceit.
ka p di: ‘Kilè nouvèl lin nan ap fini pou nou ka vann sereyal la? Ak Saba a pou nou ka ouvri mache ble a? N ap fè efa a pi piti, e sik la pi gwo. Anplis, n ap twonpe ak balans malonèt,
6 To buy for silver poor [people] and [the] needy for sake of a pair of sandals and refuse of grain we will sell grain.
pou achte sila ki san sekou a pou lajan, ak malere a pou de grenn sapat. Menm balizaj ble a n ap vann!’”
7 He has sworn Yahweh by [the] pride of Jacob if I will forget to perpetuity all deeds their.
SENYÈ a te sèmante pa glwa Jacob la: “Anverite, Mwen p ap janm bliye okenn nan zak yo.
8 ¿ On this not will it tremble the land and he will mourn every [one who] dwells in it and it will rise like the light all of it and it will be tossed (and it will sink *Q(K)*) like [the] River of Egypt.
Akoz sa, èske peyi a p ap pran tranble, e tout moun ki rete ladann p ap fè lamantasyon? Anverite, tout peyi a va leve tankou Rivyè Nil la. Li va vin ajite toupatou e bese tankou Rivyè Égypte la.
9 And it will be - on the day that [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and I will cause to go the sun at noon and I will make dark the earth in a day of light.
Li va vin rive nan jou sa a”, deklare Senyè BONDYE a, ke Mwen va fè solèy la desann a midi, e mwen va fè tè a nan fènwa nan plen jounen.
10 And I will turn feasts your into mourning and all songs your into lamentation and I will bring up on all loins sackcloth and on every head baldness and I will make it like [the] mourning of an only [son] and end its [will be] like a day bitter.
Answit, Mwen va fè fèt nou yo vin tounen dèy; tout chan lajwa nou yo va tounen lamantasyon. Mwen va fè nou pote twal sak sou senti a tout moun, ak tèt chòv sou tout tèt. Mwen va fè li tankou yon moman dèy pou yon sèl fis inik, e lafen li tankou yon jou anmè.
11 Here! - days [are] coming [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and I will send a famine in the land not a famine for bread and not a thirst for water that except for hearing [the] words of Yahweh.
“Gade byen, jou yo ap vini,” deklare Senyè BONDYE a, “lè Mwen va voye gwo grangou sou peyi a, pa yon grangou pou pen oswa pou dlo, men pou koute pawòl SENYÈ a.
12 And people will stagger from sea to sea and from [the] north and to [the] east they will rove about to seek [the] word of Yahweh and not they will find [it].
Pèp la va kilbite tou egare sòti nan yon lanmè pou rive nan lòt lanmè, e sòti nan nò pou rive menm nan lès; yo va gaye toupatou pou chache pawòl SENYÈ a, men yo p ap jwenn li.
13 In the day that they will become faint the virgins beautiful and the young men by thirst.
Nan jou sa a, bèl tifi vyèj yo ak jennonm yo va vin endispoze akoz swaf la.
14 Those [who] swear by [the] guilt of Samaria and they will say [by] [the] life of gods your O Dan and [by] [the] life of [the] way of Beer Sheba and they will fall and not they will rise again.
Menm jan pou sila ki sèmante pa peche Samarie a, ki di: ‘Jan dye ou a vivan an, O Dan!’ e ‘Jan chemen Beer-Schéba vivan an’; yo va tonbe e yo p ap leve ankò.”
