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.
Ví al Señor que estaba sobre el altar, y dijo: Hiere el umbral, y estremézcanse las puertas; y córtalos en piezas la cabeza de todos; y el postrero de ellos mataré a cuchillo: no habrá de ellos quien huya, ni quien escape.
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)
Si cavaren hasta el infierno, de allá los tomará mi mano; y si subieren hasta el cielo, de allá los haré descender: (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.
Y si se escondieren en la cumbre del Carmelo, allí los buscaré, y los tomaré; y si se escondieren de delante de mis ojos en el profundo de la mar, allí mandaré a la culebra, y morderlos ha:
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.”
Y si fueren en cautiverio delante de sus enemigos, allí mandaré a la espada, y matarlos ha; y pondré sobre ellos mis ojos para mal, y no para bien.
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.
El Señor Jehová de los ejércitos, que toca la tierra, y se derretirá, y llorarán todos los que en ella moran; y subirá toda como un río, y será hundida como el río de Egipto.
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.
El edificó en el cielo sus grados, y su conjunto fundó sobre la tierra: él llama las aguas de la mar, y las derrama sobre la haz de la tierra: Jehová es su nombre.
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].
Hijos de Israel, ¿no me sois vosotros como hijos de Etiopes? dijo Jehová: ¿No hice yo subir a Israel de la tierra de Egipto, y a los Palestinos de Caftor, y a los Siros 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.
He aquí que los ojos del Señor Jehová están contra el reino pecador; y yo le asolaré de la haz de la tierra: mas no destruiré del todo la casa de Jacob, dijo Jehová.
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 he aquí que yo mandaré, y haré que la casa de Israel sea zarandada en todas las naciones, como se zaranda el grano en un harnero, y no cae una chinica en la tierra.
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.”
A espada morirán todos los pecadores de mi pueblo, que dicen: No se acercará, ni se anticipará el mal por causa nuestra.
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.
En aquel día yo levantaré la cabaña de David caída, y cerraré sus portillos, y levantaré sus ruinas, y edificarle he como en el tiempo pasado:
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 aquellos sobre los cuales es llamado mi nombre, posean la resta de Idumea, y a todas las naciones, dijo Jehová que hace esto.
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].
He aquí que vienen días, dijo Jehová, en que el que ara se llegará al segador, y el pisador de las uvas al que lleva la simiente; y los montes destilarán mosto, y todos los collados se derretirán.
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].
Y tornaré el cautiverio de mi pueblo Israel; y edificarán las ciudades asoladas, y habitarlas han; y plantarán viñas, y beberán el vino de ellas; y harán huertos, y comerán el fruto de ellos.
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.”
Y plantarlos he sobre su tierra, y nunca más serán arrancados de su tierra, la cual yo les dí, dijo Jehová Dios tuyo.
