Amos 3
1 “You people of Israel, I brought all your ancestors out of Egypt; so listen to what I am saying about you.
Слышите слово сие, еже глагола Господь на вы, доме Израилев, и на все племя, еже изведох из земли Египетския, рекий:
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.”
вас точию познах от всех племен на земли, сего ради отмщу на вас вся грехи вашя.
3 Two [people] certainly cannot [RHQ] walk together if they have not [already] agreed [about what place they will start walking from].
Еда пойдут два вкупе всяко, аще не познают себе?
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].
Или возревет лев из дубравы своея, ловитвы не имый? Или испустит глас свой львичищь из ложа своего всяко, аще не похитит чесого?
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.
Или падет птица на землю без ловца? Или спадет пругло на землю, аще не имет ничесоже?
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].
Или возгласит труба во граде, и не убоятся людие? Или будет зло во граде, еже Господь не сотвори?
7 And whatever Yahweh plans to do, he tells his prophets about it.
Понеже не сотворит Господь Бог дела, аще не открыет наказания Своего к рабом Своим пророком.
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].
Лев возревет, и кто не убоится? Господь Бог глагола, и кто не проречет?
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!”
Поведите странам во Ассирианех и во странах Египетских и рцыте: соберитеся на гору Самарийскую и видите чудесная многа среде ея и насильство еже в ней.
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].
И не уразуме, яже будут противу ей, глаголет Господь, сокровищствующии неправду и страсть в селех своих.
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.
Сего ради сия глаголет Господь Бог: Тире, окрест земля твоя опустеет, и отимет от тебе крепость твою, и разграбятся страны твоя.
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.”
Сия глаголет Господь: якоже пастух, егда исторгнет от уст львовых две голени, или обушие уха, тако исторгнутся сынове Израилевы живущии в Самарии прямо племене и в Дамасце.
13 The Commander of the armies of angels said this: “Proclaim [this message] about the descendants [MTY] of Jacob:
Жерцы, послушайте и засвидетелствуйте дому Иаковлю, глаголет Господь Бог Вседержитель:
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.
понеже в день, егда отмщу нечестия Израилева на нем, и отмщу на требищих Вефилих, и раскопаю роги требища, и падутся на землю:
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!”
сокрушу и поражу дом с преклеты с домом летним, и погибнут домове кости слоновыя, и потребятся и друзии домове мнози, глаголет Господь.
