< Amos 1 >
1 This is the message that [Yahweh] gave to [me], Amos. I am a (shepherd/man who takes care of sheep). I am from [near] Tekoa [town south of Jerusalem]. I received this message about Israel in a vision two years before the [big] earthquake. It was when Uzziah was the king of Judah, and Jeroboam, the son of [King] Jehoash, was the king of Israel.
A: imose da sibi ouligisu dunu galu. Ea moilai dio da Degoua. Gode da ema amo fa: no misunu hou da Isala: ili dunuma doaga: mu, amo olelei. Amo eso galu Asaia da Yuda fi ilima hina bagade esalu amola Yelouboua: me (Yihoua: se egefe) ea da Isala: ili fi amo ea hina bagade hamone ouligibi. Gode da amo sia: ema olelelalu, ode aduna ha: digili, bebeda: nima bagade misi.
2 This is what Yahweh said: “I will roar [like a lion] [MET]; when I speak from Zion [Hill in] Jerusalem [DOU], my voice will [resemble the sound of] thunder. [When that happens], the pastures where you shepherds [take care of] your sheep will dry up, and [the grass] on top of Carmel [Mountain] will (wither/become brown) [because I will cause that no rain will fall].”
A: imose da amane sia: i, “Hina Gode da Saione goumi amogai esala. Ea sia: da laione wa: me ea sia: defele naba amola gugelebe agoai amo E Yelusaleme moilai bai bagade ganodini husa esalebe. Ohe fofole nasu soge da biosa amola gisi Gamele goumi ganodini heda: lu amo osobo soa: golome agoane afadenene biosa.”
3 This is [also] what Yahweh said [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Damascus, [the capital of Syria, ] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not [change my mind about punishing them] [MTY], because [the cruel things that they did to the people of the] Gilead [region] [were like] [MET] people threshing grain using sledges [that have (iron teeth/sharp iron nails) in them].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Dama: sagase fi dunu ilia da wadela: i hou amo bu hamone, bu hamone agoane hamobeba: le, Na da dafawane ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia da Gilia: de dunu ilima dodona: giwane se bagade iasu.
4 I will cause a fire to burn the palace [that King] Hazael [built and lived in], the fortress where [his son King] Ben-Hadad [also] lived.
Amaiba: le, Na da hina bagade dunu Hasa: iele amo ea diasu nema: ne, lalu sanasimu, amola hina bagade dunu Beneha: ida: de ea gasa bagade gagili sali moilai nema: ne, lalu sanasimu. Huluane da nene dagoi ba: mu.
5 I will cause the gates of Damascus to be broken [down]; I will get rid of the king who rules in Aven Valley and the one who rules in Beth Eden. And the people of Syria will be captured and taken to the Kir [region where they originally lived].”
Na da Dama: sagase gagoi logo ga: i amo huluane dusa: le dagoma. Amola Na da dunu fi huluane A: ifene umi soge ganodini esalebe amo huluane sefasimu amola Bedidini soge ea hina bagade dunu amo huluane sefasimu. Amola ga fi dunu ilia Silia fi dunu huluane Ge sogega se iasu diasu ganodini sanasima: ne, Na da logo doasimu.”
6 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of the cities in Philistia]: [I will punish the people of] Gaza [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they captured large groups of people and took them to Edom and sold them to become the slaves of [the people of] Edom.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Ga: isa osobo dogone fi dunu da wadela: i hou amo bu hamone, bu hamone, agoane hamobeba: le, Na da dafawane ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia da dunu fi afae amo afugili, bidi mae lale udigili hawa: hamomusa: , Idome sogega esalebe dunuma bidi lai.
7 I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Gaza and [also] destroy its fortresses.
Amaiba: le, Na Ga: isa moilai bai bagade gagoi dobea amoga lalu ulagili salimu, amola ilia gagili sasali diasu huluane amola liligi huluane da nene dagoi ba: mu.
8 I will get rid of the king of Ashdod [city] and the king who rules [MTY] in Ashkelon [city]. I will [also] strike/punish [the people of] Ekron [city], and [all] the people of Philistia who are still alive will be killed.”
Na da A: siedode amola A: siegelone moilai bai bagade elea hina bagade huluane fadegale sefasimu. Na da Egelone moilai bai bagade fi ilima se dabe imunu, amola Filisidini dunu oda esafulubi, amo ilia da bogogia: mu.”
9 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Tyre [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they [also] captured large groups of our people and took them to Edom, disregarding the treaty of friendship that they had made [with your rulers].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Daia dunu fi ilia da wadela: i hou amo bu hamone, bu hamone, agoane hamobeba: le, Na da dafawane ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia da dunu fi afae ilia dunu huluane afugili Idome sogega afugili asi. Ilia musa: gousa: su sia: ilegele hamoi amo hohonone wadela: lesi dagoi.
10 So I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Tyre and [also] destroy its fortresses.”
Amaiba: le, Na Daia moilai bai bagade amo ea gagoi nema: ne, lalu bidi imunu. Amola ea gagili sali diasu huluane laluga nemu.”
11 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Edom because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they pursued the people [of Israel], who descended from Esau’s [brother Jacob, and killed them] with swords; they did not act mercifully toward them at all. They were extremely angry [with the people of Israel], and they continued to be angry [with them].
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “Idome fi ilia da wadela: i hou amo bu hamone, bu hamone agoane hamobeba: le, Na da dafawane ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia da yolalali (Isala: ili dunu) amo medole legemusa: , benea ahoasu. Ilia da nimi bagade hamoi amola hame yolei.
12 I will cause a fire to burn Teman [district in Edom] and completely burn the fortresses of Bozrah, [the biggest city in Edom].”
Amaiba: le Na da Dima: ne moilai bai bagadega lalu iasimu, amola Bosela gagili sali moilai bai bagade amo laluga ulagisimu.”
13 Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Ammon because of the many sins that [they] have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because [their soldiers even] ripped open [the bellies of] pregnant women [when their army attacked] the Gilead [region] to gain more territory.
Hina Gode da amane sia: sa, “A: mone fi ilia da wadela: i hou amo bu hamone, bu hamone agoane hamobeba: le, Na da dafawane ilima se dabe imunu. Ilia ha lai gegei bagade soge eno lamusa: amo ganodini abula agui uda Gilia: de esalu amo dadamuni fane dagoi.
14 I will cause a fire to [completely] burn the walls around Rabbah [city] and completely burn its fortresses. During that battle, [their enemies] will shout loudly and the fighting will be [like] [MET] a fierce/raging wind/storm.
Amaiba: le, Na La: ba moilai bai bagade fi ilima amola gagoi dobea laluga nema: ne lalu imunu, amola ilia gagili Sali diasu huluane laluga ulagimu. Amalu gegesa bulubulubi amo nabimu, amola gegebe amo da isu bagade mabe agoai ba: mu.
15 [After the battle], the king [of Ammon] and his officials will be (exiled/forced to go to another country).”
Ilia hina bagade dunu amola ea dadi gagui ouligisu dunu ilia da ga sogega udigili hawa: hamomusa: gini mugululi asi dagoi ba: mu.”
