< Amos 9 >

1 Yahweh [showed me another vision. In the vision, ] I saw him standing next to the altar. He said, “Shake the tops of the pillars [of the temple], until they become loose and fall down, so that even the foundation will shake. Then cause the [pieces of the temple] to fall down on the people [who are inside]. I will kill with a sword anyone who [tries to] flee; no one will escape.
Vi o Senhor, que estava em pé sobre o altar, e me disse: Fere o capitel, e estremeçam os umbrais, e corta-lhes em pedaços a cabeça a todos eles; e eu matarei à espada até ao último deles: o que fugir dentre eles não escapará, nem o que escapar dentre eles se salvará
2 If they dig deep pits in the ground, or if they try to climb up to the sky [in order to escape], I will reach out and grab them. (Sheol h7585)
Ainda que cavem até ao inferno, a minha mão os tirará dali, e, se subirem ao céu, dali os farei descer. (Sheol h7585)
3 If they go to the top of Carmel [Mountain] to escape, I will search for them and seize them. If they [try to] hide from me at the bottom of the sea, I will command the [huge] sea monster to bite them.
E, se se esconderem no cume do Carmelo, busca-los-ei, e dali os tirarei; e, se se ocultarem aos meus olhos no fundo do mar, ali darei ordem à serpente, e ela os morderá.
4 If their enemies [capture them and] force them to go to other countries, I will command that they be killed there with swords. I am determined [IDM] to get rid of them, not to help them.”
E, se forem em cativeiro diante de seus inimigos, ali darei ordem à espada que os mate; e eu porei o meu olho sobre eles para mal, e não para bem.
5 When the Commander of the armies of angels touches the earth, it melts, and all over the earth [many people die, and the others] mourn for them. [It is as though] Yahweh causes the earth repeatedly to rise and fall like [SIM] the Nile [River] rises and falls.
Porque o Senhor Jehovah dos exércitos é o que toca a terra, e ela se derreterá, e todos os que habitam nela chorarão; e ela subirá toda como um rio, e submergirá como pelo rio do Egito.
6 He builds his [beautiful] palace in heaven, and sets/causes the sky to be like a dome over the earth. He scoops up the water from the ocean and [puts it into clouds], and then empties [the clouds] onto the earth. His name is Yahweh.
Ele é o que edifica os seus degraus no céu, e o seu esquadrão fundou na terra, e o que chama as águas do mar, e as derrama sobre a terra: o Senhor é o seu nome.
7 And Yahweh says, “You people of Israel, you are certainly [RHQ] [now no more important to me] than the people of Ethiopia. I brought your [ancestors] here from Egypt, but I also brought the people of Philistia from Crete [Island], and I brought the people of Syria from the Kir [region].
Não me sois, vós, ó filhos de Israel, como os filhos dos ethiopes? diz o Senhor; não fiz eu subir a Israel da terra do Egito, e aos philisteus de Caphtor, e aos sirios de Kir
8 I [SYN], Yahweh the Lord, have seen that you people in the kingdom [of Israel] are very sinful, so I will (destroy you/wipe you off the earth). But I will not get rid of all you descendants [MTY] of Jacob. [That is what will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.
Eis que os olhos do Senhor Jehovah estão contra este reino pecador, e eu o destruirei de sobre a face da terra, exceto que não destruirei de todo a casa de Jacob, diz o Senhor.
9 When I command it, [it will be as though] I will shake you Israeli people [who are living] in various nations, like [MET] [a farmer] shakes a sieve [to separate] the stone pebbles [from the grain], in order that they do not fall on the ground [with the grain].
Porque eis que darei ordem, e sacudirei a casa de Israel entre todas as nações, assim como se sacode grão no crivo, sem que caia na terra um só grão.
10 From among my people, all you sinful people who say, ‘We will not experience disasters; nothing evil will happen to us,’ will be killed by [your enemies’] swords.”
Todos os pecadores do meu povo morrerão à espada, os que dizem: Não se avisinhará nem nos encontrará o mal.
11 “The kingdom [over which King] David [ruled has been destroyed, like] [MET] a house that collapsed and then became ruins. But some day I will cause it to be a kingdom again. I will cause it to prosper again just like it did previously.
Naquele dia tornarei a levantar a caída tenda de David, e cercarei as suas aberturas, e tornarei a levantar as suas ruínas, e a edificarei como nos dias da antiguidade;
12 When that happens, your [armies] will seize/capture the remaining part of Edom [region] again, and they will also seize the land in other nations that previously belonged to me [MTY]. I, Yahweh, have said [that I will do these things], and I will certainly cause them to happen.
Para que possuam o restante de Edom, e todas as nações que são chamadas pelo meu nome, diz o Senhor, que faz isto.
13 There will be a time [when your crops will grow very well]. Very soon after the crops are harvested, farmers will plow the ground [to plant more crops in it again], and soon after the vineyards are planted, [farmers will harvest] grapes and tread on them [to make wine]. [And because there will be a lot of] wine, [it will seem as though] wine is flowing down from the hills [DOU].
Eis que veem dias, diz o Senhor, em que o que lavra alcançará ao que sega, e o que piza as uvas ao que semeia a semente, e os montes distilarão mosto, e todos os outeiros se derreterão.
14 I will cause you, my Israeli people, to prosper again. You will rebuild your towns and live in them. You will plant vineyards and then drink the wine [made from the grapes that grows in them].
E tornarei o cativeiro do meu povo Israel, e reedificarão as cidades assoladas, e nelas habitarão, e plantarão vinhas, e beberão o seu vinho, e farão jardins, e lhes comerão o fruto.
15 I will enable you to live [MET] in your land again, the land that I gave to [your ancestors], and never again will you be forced to leave it. [That is what will surely happen because] I, Yahweh, have said it.”
E os plantarei na sua terra, e não serão mais arrancados da sua terra que lhes dei, diz o Senhor teu Deus.
