Amos 1
1 This is the message that [Yahweh] gave to [me], Amos. I am a (shepherd/man who takes care of sheep). I am from [near] Tekoa [town south of Jerusalem]. I received this message about Israel in a vision two years before the [big] earthquake. It was when Uzziah was the king of Judah, and Jeroboam, the son of [King] Jehoash, was the king of Israel.
Словеса Амосова, яже быша в Кариафиариме от Фекуи, яже виде о Иерусалиме во дни Озии царя Иудина и во дни Иеровоама сына Иоасова царя Израилева, прежде двою лет труса.
2 This is what Yahweh said: “I will roar [like a lion] [MET]; when I speak from Zion [Hill in] Jerusalem [DOU], my voice will [resemble the sound of] thunder. [When that happens], the pastures where you shepherds [take care of] your sheep will dry up, and [the grass] on top of Carmel [Mountain] will (wither/become brown) [because I will cause that no rain will fall].”
И рече: Господь от Сиона возглагола и от Иерусалима даде глас Свой: и сетоваша пажити пастырей, и изсше верх Кармиль.
3 This is [also] what Yahweh said [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Damascus, [the capital of Syria, ] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not [change my mind about punishing them] [MTY], because [the cruel things that they did to the people of the] Gilead [region] [were like] [MET] people threshing grain using sledges [that have (iron teeth/sharp iron nails) in them].
И рече Господь: за три нечестия Дамаска и за четыри не отвращуся его, понеже растроша пилами железными имущыя во утробе сущих в Галааде:
4 I will cause a fire to burn the palace [that King] Hazael [built and lived in], the fortress where [his son King] Ben-Hadad [also] lived.
и послю огнь в дом Азаиль, и пояст основание сына Адерова:
5 I will cause the gates of Damascus to be broken [down]; I will get rid of the king who rules in Aven Valley and the one who rules in Beth Eden. And the people of Syria will be captured and taken to the Kir [region where they originally lived].”
и сокрушу вереи Дамасковы, и потреблю живущыя с поля Онова, и посеку племя от мужей Харраних, и пленятся людие Сирстии нарочитии, глаголет Господь.
6 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of the cities in Philistia]: [I will punish the people of] Gaza [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they captured large groups of people and took them to Edom and sold them to become the slaves of [the people of] Edom.
Сия глаголет Господь: за три нечестия Газы и за четыри не отвращуся их, за еже пленити им пленение Соломоне, еже заключити во Идумею:
7 I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Gaza and [also] destroy its fortresses.
и послю огнь на забрала Газы, и пояст основание ея:
8 I will get rid of the king of Ashdod [city] and the king who rules [MTY] in Ashkelon [city]. I will [also] strike/punish [the people of] Ekron [city], and [all] the people of Philistia who are still alive will be killed.”
и потреблю живущыя из Азота, и извержется племя из Аскалона, и наведу руку Мою на Аккарона, и погибнут остаточнии иноплеменников, глаголет Господь.
9 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Tyre [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they [also] captured large groups of our people and took them to Edom, disregarding the treaty of friendship that they had made [with your rulers].
Сия глаголет Господь: за три нечестия Тирова и за четыри не отвращуся его, понеже заключиша пленники Соломони во Идумею и не помянуша завета братня:
10 So I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Tyre and [also] destroy its fortresses.”
и послю огнь на забрала Тирова, и пояст основания его.
11 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Edom because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they pursued the people [of Israel], who descended from Esau’s [brother Jacob, and killed them] with swords; they did not act mercifully toward them at all. They were extremely angry [with the people of Israel], and they continued to be angry [with them].
Сия глаголет Господь: за три нечестия Идумейска и за четыри не отвращуся их, понеже прогнаша брата своего мечем и растлиша матерь на земли, и восхити во свидение грозу свою, и устремление свое снабде на победу:
12 I will cause a fire to burn Teman [district in Edom] and completely burn the fortresses of Bozrah, [the biggest city in Edom].”
и послю огнь в Феман, и пояст основания оград его.
13 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Ammon because of the many sins that [they] have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because [their soldiers even] ripped open [the bellies of] pregnant women [when their army attacked] the Gilead [region] to gain more territory.
Сия глаголет Господь: за три нечестия сынов Аммоних и за четыри не отвращуся их, понеже распоряху имущыя во утробе Галаадитов, яко да разширят пределы своя:
14 I will cause a fire to [completely] burn the walls around Rabbah [city] and completely burn its fortresses. During that battle, [their enemies] will shout loudly and the fighting will be [like] [MET] a fierce/raging wind/storm.
и разжегу огнь на забрала Раввафы, и пояст основания ея с воплем в день рати, и потрясется в день скончания своего:
15 [After the battle], the king [of Ammon] and his officials will be (exiled/forced to go to another country).”
и пойдут царие ея в плен, жерцы их и князи их вкупе, глаголет Господь.
