Amos 1
1 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
Okwu ndị Emọs kwuru, onye bụ otu nʼime ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ nke obodo Tekoa. Ndị a bụ ọhụ ọ hụrụ banyere Izrel. Ọ hụrụ ọhụ a mgbe Uzaya bụ eze ndị Juda. Nʼoge ahụ kwa ka Jeroboam nwa Joash na-achị Izrel. Ọ hụrụ ọhụ a afọ abụọ tupu oke ala ọma jijiji ahụ adịrị.
2 And he said, The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.
Ọ sịrị, Onyenwe anyị si nʼugwu Zayọn na-ebigbọ, o si na Jerusalem na-eme ka olu ya daa ụda. Ebe ịta nri nke ndị ọzụzụ atụrụ ga-eru ụjụ. Elu ugwu Kamel ga-akpọnwụkwa.
3 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Damaskọs, na nʼihi njehie ha nke ugboro anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Nʼihi na ha azọpịala ndị m nʼime Gilead, ha ji igwe ịzọcha mkpụrụ ọka nwere eze.
4 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, which shall devour the palaces of Benhadad.
Nʼihi ya, aga m esunye ọkụ nʼụlọeze Hazael; ọkụ a ga-erepịakwa ebe niile e wusiri ike nke Ben-Hadad.
5 I will break also the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the plain of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of Eden: and the people of Syria shall go into captivity to Kir, saith the LORD.
Aga m etiji ibo ọnụ ụzọ ama Damaskọs, aga m ekpochapụkwa ndị niile bi na Ndagwurugwu Aven, na onye ahụ mkpara eze dị nʼaka ya, nke nọ na Bet-Eden. Ndị Aram ga-abụkwa ndị a dọtara nʼagha, ndị a ga-adọkpụrụ gaa Kia.” Ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru.
6 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Gaza, e, nʼihi njehie nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ, nʼihi na ha dọtara mmadụ niile nʼagha, ranye nʼaka ndị Edọm.
7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour its palaces:
Nʼihi ya, aga m esunye ọkụ na mgbidi niile nke Gaza, ebe ya niile e wusiri ike ga-agba ọkụ.
8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn my hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord GOD.
Aga m egbu ndị Ashdọd, ma bibiekwa onye ahụ na-achị Ashkelọn. Aga eweli aka m megide ndị Ekrọn, ruo mgbe ndị Filistia fọdụrụ ga-ala nʼiyi.” Otu a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị sịrị.
9 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:
Otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Taịa, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Nʼihi na ha dọkpụrụ ọgbakọ ndị mmadụ renye nʼaka Edọm dịka ohu, ma chefuo ọgbụgba ndụ nwanne na nwanne dị nʼetiti ha.
10 But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, which shall devour its palaces.
Nʼihi nke a, aga m esunye ọkụ na mgbidi niile nke Taịa; ọ ga-eredakwa ebe ha niile e wusiri ike.”
11 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Edọm, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ. Nʼihi na o ji mma agha chụọ nwanne ya ọsọ, o meghị ebere, kama, o mere ka iwe ya dịgidesie ike; nrubiga oke nke ọnụma ya akwụsịkwaghị akwụsị.
12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
Nʼihi ya, aga m esunye ọkụ na Teman; ọ ga-erekwa nʼebe niile e wusiri ike nke Bozra.”
13 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away their punishment; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
Ma otu a ka Onyenwe anyị na-ekwu, “Nʼihi njehie atọ nke Amọn, e, nʼihi nke anọ, agaghị m ahapụ inye ya ntaramahụhụ, nʼihi na ha were mma agha ha bọwaa afọ ụmụ nwanyị Gilead dị ime, nʼihi ime ka oke ala ha saa mbara.
14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour its palaces, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind:
Nʼihi nke a, aga m esunye ọkụ na mgbidi niile nke Raba. Ọ ga-erepịakwa ebe ya niile e wusiri ike. Oke ụzụ agha nke ga-ada dịka ụzụ oke ifufe, na ụzụ egbe eluigwe ga na-ada nʼụbọchị ahụ.
15 And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith the LORD.
Eze ha na ndịisi ọchịchị ya ga-abụ ndị a dọtara nʼagha, ndị ga-aga biri nʼala ọzọ.” Ka Onyenwe anyị sịrị.
