< Amos 3 >

1 “You people of Israel, I brought all your ancestors out of Egypt; so listen to what I am saying about you.
Isala: ili dunu! Nabima! Dunu fi amo Ea Idibidi soge ganodini esalu amo lale guda: i. Goe sia: amo Hina Gode Ea dilia hou olelema: ne sia: i, amo nabima!
2 From all the people-groups on the earth, I [chose and] took care of only you. That is the reason that I will punish you for the sins that you have committed.”
Osobo bagade dunu fifilai huluane ganodini, Na da dilia fi amo fawane dawa: amola dili fawane ouligisa. Amaiba: le dilia wadela: i hou da bagadedafa ba: sa amola Na da dilima se dabe imunu amo yolesimu da hamedei. Bai eno fifilai dunu ilia ba: ma: ne.
3 Two [people] certainly cannot [RHQ] walk together if they have not [already] agreed [about what place they will start walking from].
Ma dunu aduna da sogega ahoasea ela da sogebi amogai ela da gousa: mu amo hidadea hame ilegesala: ?
4 A lion certainly does not [RHQ] roar in the bushes/forest if it has not killed another animal. It does not [RHQ] growl in its den if it is not eating [the flesh of an animal that it has caught].
Be laione wa: me bagade ea da udigili hala halaia gegesabela: , ea ohe mae ba: le da? Abuliba: le da waha debe laione wa: me ea diasu ganodini, amomane ea ohe amo mima: bela: ?
5 No one can [RHQ] catch a bird if [he does] not [set] a trap for it. A trap does not spring shut unless some [animal] has not sprung the trap.
Ma sio sani amo ganodini isu hame gasa: le legesea, sani ganodini diagoma da dasabela: ? Ma sani ganodini da dilisi amo da udigili fada: ne dabela: ?
6 [Similarly, all] the people in a city certainly [RHQ] become afraid when [they hear someone] blowing a trumpet [to signal that enemies are attacking]. And when a city experiences disaster, Yahweh is the one who has caused it [RHQ].
Gegesea dusu galamudi (dalabede) amo moilai bai bagade fi amo ganodini udigili dubi nabima: bela: ? Ma moilai bai bagade fi amogai ha: i o esoi doaga: sea da Hina Gode iaguda: iba: le fawane maha.
7 And whatever Yahweh plans to do, he tells his prophets about it.
Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Ea da liligi hamomusa: ilegesea, E da hidadea Ea hamomu liligi amo Ea hawa: hamosu dunu amo balofede dunu ilima olelesa.
8 Everyone certainly becomes terrified [RHQ] when they hear a lion roar, and if Yahweh the Lord has given messages [to prophets like me], we certainly must [RHQ] proclaim those messages, [even if they cause people to become terrified].
Be laione wa: me bagade ea hala halaia masea, nowa da hame beda: ma: bela: ? Amola Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Ea sia: sea da nowa da Ea sia: hame sisia: sala: ?
9 [I said this to the leaders of Samaria] (OR, [Yahweh said this to me]): Send this message to the leaders [MET] in Ashdod [city] and to Egypt: “Come to the hills of Samaria and see [the way that their (leaders/wealthy people)] are causing people in that city to be terrified, and [the way that they] are causing the people to suffer!”
Sia: goe Idibidi soge amola Asiedode soge hina bagade ilia diasulali amo ganodini dunu esalebe huluane ilima olelema, “Dilia huluane Samelia gafulu amodili gilisima. Bidi hamosu amola wadela: i hou ilia da amogawi hamonanebe amo ba: ma.
10 Yahweh says that the people there do not know how to do things that are right. Their homes are filled with [valuable things] that they have stolen or [taken] violently [from others].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Samelia dunu fi ilia da wadela: i hou bagade hamosu amola wamolasu hou amola gegesu hou. Ilia hou noga: idafa da afae agoane da hame hamosa, amola moloi dunu fi hame.
11 So Yahweh [our] God says that [soon] their enemies will come and tear down their (defenses/high city walls) and take away those valuable things.
Amaiba: le, ha lai dunu da ilia soge amo huluane sisiga: le dagole amola ilia gagoi amo mugulumu amola liligi huluane amo ganodini dialebe amo lidimu.”
12 Yahweh has declared this: “When a lion attacks a sheep, [sometimes] a shepherd will be able to snatch from the lion’s mouth only two legs or an ear of the sheep. Similarly, [only] a few people from Samaria will escape, and [they will be able to rescue only] a part of a couch and a part of a bed.”
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Laione wa: me bagade ea sibi afae fane nasea, amo ouligisu dunu da amo sibi ea emo aduna o ge afae fawane amo bu lidisa. Amaiba: le, amo defele, Samelia osobo dogone fi dunu wali da noga: le diaha, be fa: no bagahamedafa fawane ba: mu.
13 The Commander of the armies of angels said this: “Proclaim [this message] about the descendants [MTY] of Jacob:
Nabima! Ya: igobe egaga fi ilima sisasu olelema!” Ouligisudafa Hina Gode Bagadedafa da amane sia: sa.
14 When I, Yahweh, punish [the people of] Israel because of the sins that they have committed, I will cause the altars at Bethel [town] to be destroyed; even the projections at the corners of the altars will be cut off and fall to the ground.
“Isala: ili dunu da wadela: i hou bagade hamobeba: le, Na da ilima se dabe imunu. Amo esoga Na da Bedele oloda huluane wadela: lesimu. Oloda huluane ilia hegomai hono huluane da fadegale fasili, osoboga ha: digi dagoi ba: mu.
15 I will cause the houses [that they live in during] the (winter/rainy season) and those [in which they live during] the (summer/dry season) to be torn down. [Beautiful] big houses and houses [that are decorated] with ivory will be destroyed. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!”
Na da anegagisu eso diasu amola dogolosu eso diasu amola wadela: lesimu. Diasu noga: le nenemene gagui amola ‘aifoli’ amoga nina: hamoi, amo huluane amola diasu bagade Na da mugululi dagomu.”
