< Amos 6 >
1 Terrible things will happen to you people in Jerusalem who are not worried about anything, and also to you leaders who live on Samaria Hill who think that you are safe. [You think that] [IRO] you are the most important people [in the world], people to whom Israeli people [MTY] go [to get help].
Hankàñe ry mierañerañe e Tsione ao, naho o mipalitse ami’ty vohi’ i Someroneo, o roandriam-pifeheañe valoha’e iatoa’ ty anjomba’ Israeleo!
2 But go to Calneh [city] and see [what happened there]. Then go to [see] the great [city] Hamath [and see what happened there]. Then go down to Gath [city] in Philistia [and see what happened to their city walls]. Your land/country is certainly not [RHQ] larger or more powerful than their countries were, [but they were all destroyed].
Mionjona mb’e Kalnè mb’eo le isao, akia henane zay mb’e Kamate jabajabay; vaho mizotsoa mb’e Gate nte-Pilistiy mb’eo. Ho soa te amy fifeheañe retiañe hao iereo? mandikoatse ty efe-tane’ areo hao ty a iareo?
3 You are trying to not think about a day when you will experience disasters, when [your enemies will come and] violently attack you.
Ry mampihànkañe i andron-kankàñey vaho mampitotoke i fiambesan-karotsahañey;
4 You lie on beds [decorated with expensive] ivory, and on [soft] couches. You eat [the tender meat of] lambs and fat calves.
o mitsalalampatse am-pandreañe nihamineñe hafotia-nife naho mihitsy an-kidori’ iareo, vaho mikama anak’añondry boak’ amy lia-raikey naho sarake boak’ añivon-jolokeo;
5 You create/compose new songs and play them on your harps like [King] David did.
o mititike marovany arahem-peo vaho mamoroñe raham-pititihañe, manahake i Davideo;
6 You drink entire bowlfuls of wine and you put expensive oils/perfumes on your bodies, but you do not grieve about [your country of] Israel [MTY], which is about to be destroyed.
o minon-divay an-tsini-hara naho mihosotse menake soao, fe tsy iroveta’e ty hasotria’ Iosefe.
7 Your feasting and lounging [on soft couches] will soon end, and you will be among the first ones to be forced [by your enemies] to go (into exile/to another country).
ie amy zao, hasese mb’an-drohy mb’eo ho mpiaolom-pirohy, vaho hafahañe añe ty sabadida’ o mpihity an-telo-antarao.
8 Yahweh the Lord has solemnly declared this: “I hate the people of Israel because they are very proud; I detest their fortresses. I will enable [their enemies] to capture their [capital] city and everything in it.”
Fa nifanta amam-bata’e t’Iehovà, Talè; le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, Hejeko ty fiebotsebora’ Iakobe, naho mampangorý ahy o anjomba’eo: aa le hatoloko añe i rovay rekets’ o ama’e iabio.
9 [When that happens, ] if there are ten people in one house, they will all die.
Ie henane zay, naho lahilahy folo ty sisa añ’anjomba raike, fonga hihomake.
10 If a relative who (has the task of/is responsible for) burning their corpses comes to the house and inquires of anyone who is still hiding there, “Is there anyone here with you?”, and that person replies “No,” [the one who inquired] will say, “Be quiet! We must not mention the name of Yahweh, [lest he cause us also to be killed]!”
Ho rambese’ i rahalahin-drae’e kiraikiraike iereo hañakara’e añ’anjomba’e ao hañoroa’e, le ty hoe ty hanoe’e amy añ’anjomba aoy, Mbe ama’e hao irehe? le ty hoe ty hatoi’ ty ao, Aiy! vaho hoe ka i raikey. Mianjiña, fa tsy volañeñe ty tahina’ Iehovà.
11 [Terrible things like that will happen] because Yahweh has commanded that large houses [in Israel] must be smashed into pieces, and small houses must be smashed into tiny bits.
Inao fa handily t’Iehovà te ho tseratseraheñe o anjombao vaho ho hotohotoeñe o kibohotseo.
12 Horses certainly do not [RHQ] run on big rocks, and certainly people do not [RHQ] plow the sea with oxen. But you have [done things that no one should do]: You have distorted what is fair/right and caused it to be considered like poison [MET]; you have changed what is right and consider it to be like things that are bitter.
Hilay ambatovato hao o soavalao? hitari-dasarý eo reketse katràka hao t’indaty? Mañino te nafote’ areo ho voreke ty havañonañe, vaho ho vahon-tsoy ty vokan-kavantañañe?
13 You are proud because you have captured Lo-Debar [town], and you have said, “We captured Karnaim by our own power!”
Ry mpirebek’ amo raha tsy vente’eo, manao ty hoe: Tsy ty haozara’ay avao hao ty nahavontititse tsifa?
14 But the Commander of the armies of angels declares, “I will cause another nation to attack you people [MTY] of Israel; they will (oppress you/cause you to suffer) all the way from Hamath Pass [in the northwest] to the Dead Sea [in the southeast].”
Inao arè, ry anjomba’ Israeleo te hatroako haname anahareo ty fifeheañe, hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, le ho silofe’ iereo boak’ am-piziliha’ i Kamate eo pak’ an-tsaka’ Arabà añe.
