< Amos 7 >

1 This is what the Lord Yahweh showed me. Look, he formed a locust swarm when the spring crop began to come up, and, look, it was the late crop after the king's harvest.
Kastoy ti impakita ni Yahweh kaniak. Pagammoan, nangpataud isuna iti pinangen a dudon idi mangrugi nga agrusing dagiti mula, ket pagammoan, daytoy ti nabatbati a mula kalpasan a naapiten ti bingay ti ari.
2 When they finished eating the vegetation of the land, then I said, “Lord Yahweh, please forgive; how will Jacob survive? For he is so small.”
Kalpasan nga inibus dagiti dudon dagiti mula iti daga, kinunak, “Apo a Yahweh, pangaasim ta mamakawanka; kasano a makalasat ni Jacob? Ket nagbassit unay isuna.”
3 Yahweh relented concerning this. “It will not happen,” he said.
Imbabawi ni Yahweh ti maipapan iti daytoy. “Saanto a mapasamak daytoy,” kinunana.
4 This is what the Lord Yahweh showed me: Look, the Lord Yahweh called on fire to judge. It dried the vast, deep water under the earth and would have devoured the land, also.
Kastoy ti impakita ni Yahweh nga Apo kaniak: Pagammoan, nangayab ti Apo a ni Yahweh iti apuy tapno mangukom. Minagaan daytoy ti nalawa ken nauneg a danum nga adda iti uneg ti daga ken manguram pay koma iti daga.
5 But I said, “Lord Yahweh, please stop; how will Jacob survive? For he is so small.”
Ngem kinunak, “Apo a Yahweh, pangaasim ta saanmo nga aramiden dayta; kasano a makalasat ni Jacob? Ket nagbassit unay isuna.”
6 Yahweh relented concerning this, “This also will not happen,” said the Lord Yahweh.
Imbabawi ni Yahweh ti maipanggep iti daytoy, “Uray daytoy ket saanto a mapasamak,” kinuna ni Yahweh nga Apo.
7 This is what he showed me: Look, the Lord stood beside a wall, with a plumb line in his hand.
Kastoy ti impakitana kaniak: Pagammoan, nagtakder ti Apo iti abay ti pader, nga adda iggemna a tinnag.
8 Yahweh said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said, “Look, I will put a plumb line among my people Israel. I will spare them no longer.
Kinuna ni Yahweh kaniak, “Amos, ania ti makitkitam?” Kinunak, “Maysa a tinnag.” Ket kinuna ti Apo, “Agikabillakto iti tinnag kadagiti tattaok nga Israel. Saankonto ida nga ispalenen.
9 The high places of Isaac will be destroyed, the sanctuaries of Israel will be ruined, and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”
Madadaelto dagiti nangangato a disso ni Isaac, madadaelto dagiti nasantoan a disso ti Israel, ket tumakderakto nga addaan iti kampilan maibusor iti balay ni Jeroboam.
10 Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent a message to Jeroboam, king of Israel: “Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words.
Kalpasana, nangipatulod ni Amasias a padi ti Betel iti maysa a mensahe kenni Jeroboam nga ari ti Israel: “Nagpanggep ni Amos maibusor kenka iti tengnga ti balay ti Israel. Saan a maibturan ti daga ti amin a saona.
11 For this is what Amos said, 'Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile away from his land.'”
Ta kastoy ti imbaga ni Amos: 'Matayto ni Jeroboam babaen iti kampilan ken awan duadua a maitalawto a kas balud ti Israel iti lugar nga adayo iti dagana.”
12 Amaziah said to Amos, “Seer, go, run back to the land of Judah, and there eat bread and prophesy.
Kinuna ni Amasias kenni Amos, “Profeta, pumanawka, agsublika idiay daga ti Juda, ket manganka sadiay iti tinapay ken agipadtoka sadiay.
13 But do not prophesy anymore here at Bethel, for it is the king's sanctuary and a royal house.”
Ngem saankan nga agipadto ditoy Betel gapu ta daytoy ket santuario ti ari ken balayna.”
14 Then Amos said to Amaziah, “I am not a prophet nor a prophet's son. I am a herdsman, and I take care of sycamore fig trees.
Ket kinuna ni Amos kenni Amasias, “Saanak a profeta wenno putot iti maysa a profeta. Agpaspastorak iti arban ken agay-aywanak kadagiti kayo a sikamoro.
15 But Yahweh took me from tending the flock and said to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.'
Ngem innalanak ni Yahweh iti panagpaspastorko iti arban ket kinunana kaniak, 'Mapanka agipadto kadagiti tattaok nga Israelita.'
16 Now hear the word of Yahweh. You say, 'Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not speak against the house of Isaac.'
Ita denggem ti sao ni Yahweh. Ibagbagam, 'Saanka nga agipadto maibusor iti Israel, ken saanka nga agsao maibusor iti balay ni Isaac.'
17 Therefore this is what Yahweh says, 'Your wife will be a prostitute in the city; your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword; your land will be measured and divided up; you will die in an unclean land, and Israel will surely go into exile from his land.'”
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: 'Agbalinto a balangkantis iti siudad ti asawam; matayto dagiti putotmo a babbai ken lallaki babaen iti kampilan; marukod ken mabingay-bingayto ti dagam; mataykanto iti narugit a daga, ken awan duadua a maitalawto a kas balud ti Israel manipud iti dagana.”
