< Amos 7 >
1 thus to see: see me Lord YHWH/God and behold to form: formed locust in/on/with beginning to ascend: rise [the] spring crop and behold spring crop after fleece [the] king
Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, he was forming locusts in the beginning of the sprouting up of the latter groweth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings [was over].
2 and to be if to end: finish to/for to eat [obj] vegetation [the] land: country/planet and to say Lord YHWH/God to forgive please who? to arise: establish Jacob for small he/she/it
And it came to pass, when they had made an end of eating up the herbs of the earth, that I said, O Lord Eternal, forgive, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!
3 to be sorry: relent LORD upon this not to be to say LORD
The Lord bethought himself of this: It shall not be, said the Lord.
4 thus to see: see me Lord YHWH/God and behold to call: call to to/for to contend in/on/with fire Lord YHWH/God and to eat [obj] abyss many and to eat [obj] [the] portion
Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, the Lord Eternal called forth the punishment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and consumed the ploughed field.
5 and to say Lord YHWH/God to cease please who? to arise: establish Jacob for small he/she/it
Then said I, O Lord Eternal, forbear, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!
6 to be sorry: relent LORD upon this also he/she/it not to be to say Lord YHWH/God
The Lord bethought himself of this: Also this shall not be, said the Lord Eternal.
7 thus to see: see me and behold Lord to stand upon wall plumbline and in/on/with hand his plumbline
Thus he showed unto me: and, behold, the Lord was standing upon a wall [made] by a plumbline, and in his hand was a plumbline.
8 and to say LORD to(wards) me what? you(m. s.) to see: see Amos and to say plumbline and to say Lord look! I to set: make plumbline in/on/with entrails: among people my Israel not to add: again still to pass to/for him
And the Lord said unto me, What dost thou see, 'Amos? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not farther indulge them any more.
9 and be desolate: destroyed high place Isaac and sanctuary Israel to destroy and to arise: attack upon house: household Jeroboam in/on/with sword
And the high places of Isaac shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid in ruins: and I will rise up against the house of Jerobo'am with the sword.
10 and to send: depart Amaziah priest Bethel Bethel to(wards) Jeroboam king Israel to/for to say to conspire upon you Amos in/on/with entrails: among house: household Israel not be able [the] land: country/planet to/for to sustain [obj] all word his
Then sent Amazyah, the priest of Beth-el, to Jerobo'am the king of Israel, saying, 'Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
11 for thus to say Amos in/on/with sword to die Jeroboam and Israel to reveal: remove to reveal: remove from upon land: soil his
For thus hath 'Amos said, By the sword shall Jerobo'am die, and Israel shall surely be led away into exile out of their own land.
12 and to say Amaziah to(wards) Amos seer to go: went to flee to/for you to(wards) land: country/planet Judah and to eat there food: bread and there to prophesy
And Amazyah said unto 'Amos, Seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and eat there [thy] bread, and there prophesy;
13 and Bethel Bethel not to add: again still to/for to prophesy for sanctuary king he/she/it and house: home kingdom he/she/it
But at Beth-el prophesy not farther any more; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal residence.
14 and to answer Amos and to say to(wards) Amaziah not prophet I and not son: child prophet I for herdsman I and to gather/tend figs sycamore
Then answered 'Amos, and said to Amazyah, I am no prophet, nor am I a prophet's son; but I am a herdman, and a gatherer of wild figs;
15 and to take: take me LORD from after [the] flock and to say to(wards) me LORD to go: went to prophesy to(wards) people my Israel
But the Lord hath taken me away from behind the flocks, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
16 and now to hear: hear word LORD you(m. s.) to say not to prophesy upon Israel and not to drip/prophesy upon house: household Isaac
And now hear thou the word of the Lord, Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac.
17 to/for so thus to say LORD woman: wife your in/on/with city to fornicate and son: child your and daughter your in/on/with sword to fall: kill and land: soil your in/on/with cord to divide and you(m. s.) upon land: soil unclean to die and Israel to reveal: remove to reveal: remove from upon land: soil his
Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Thy wife will play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided out by the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall surely be led forth into exile out of their land.
