Amos 5
1 Hear ye this word which I take up against you, [even] a lamentation, O house of Israel.
| اسْمَعُوا هَذِهِ الْمَرْثِيَّةَ الَّتِي أَرْثِيكُمْ بِها يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١ |
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise! she is forsaken upon her land; [there is] none to raise her up.
| قَدْ سَقَطَتْ عَذْرَاءُ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلَنْ تَنْهَضَ بَعْدُ. صَارَتْ طَرِيحَةً عَلَى أَرْضِهَا وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُقِيمُهَا. | ٢ |
3 For thus saith the Lord GOD; The city that went out [by] a thousand shall leave a hundred, and that which went forth [by] a hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
| لأَنَّهُ هَكَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: إِنَّ الْمَدِينَةَ الَّتِي قَدَّمَتْ أَلْفاً مِنْ رِجَالِهَا لِلْحَرْبِ، لَا يَبْقَى لَهَا مِنْهُمْ سِوَى مِئَةٍ. وَالَّتِي قَدَّمَتْ مِئَةً مِنْهُمْ لِلْحَرْبِ لَا يَبْقَى لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْهُمْ سِوَى عَشَرَةٍ. | ٣ |
4 For thus saith the LORD to the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ لِبَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ: الْتَمِسُونِي فَتَحْيَوْا. | ٤ |
5 But seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth-el shall come to naught.
| لَا تَسْعَوْا وَرَاءَ بَيْتِ إِيلَ، وَلا تَدْخُلُوا الْجِلْجَالَ، وَلا تَعْبُرُوا إِلَى بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ، لأَنَّ أَهْلَ الْجِلْجَالِ لابُدَّ أَنْ يَتِمَّ سَبْيُهُمْ، وَبَيْتَ إِيلَ تُصْبِحُ عَدَماً. | ٥ |
6 Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour [it], and [there be] none to quench [it] in Beth-el.
| الْتَمِسُوا الرَّبَّ فَتَحيَوْا لِئَلّا يَنْدَلِعَ كَنَارٍ تُحْرِقُ بَيْتَ يُوسُفَ وَتَلْتَهِمُ بَيْتَ إِيلَ، وَلَيْسَ مَنْ يُطْفِئُ. | ٦ |
7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness on the earth,
| إِنَّكُمْ تُحَوِّلُونَ الْعَدْلَ مَرَارَةً، وَتَطْرَحُونَ الْحَقَّ إِلَى الأَرْضِ. | ٧ |
8 [Seek him] that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shades of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: JEHOVAH [is] his name:
| إِنَّهُ هُوَ الَّذِي خَلَقَ الثُّرَيَّا وَالْجَبَّارَ، وَيُحَوِّلُ دَيَاجِيرَ الظُّلْمَةِ إِلَى نَهَارٍ، وَالنَّهَارَ إِلَى لَيْلٍ، وَيَسْتَدْعِي مِيَاهَ الْبَحْرِ وَيُفِيضُهَا عَلَى وَجْهِ الأَرْضِ، الرَّبُّ اسْمُهُ. | ٨ |
9 That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
| الَّذِي يُنْزِلُ الْخَرَابَ بِالْقَوِيِّ، فَيَعْصِفُ الدَّمَارُ بِالْحُصُونِ. | ٩ |
10 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
| قَدْ أَبْغَضُوا مَنْ يُنَدِّدُ بِالْجَوْرِ فِي سَاحَةِ الْقَضَاءِ، وَيَكْرَهُونَ مَنْ يَنْطِقُ بِالْحَقِّ. | ١٠ |
11 Forasmuch therefore as your treading [is] upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
| فَلأَنَّكُمْ تَطَأُونَ الْمِسْكِينَ وَتَبْتَزُّونَ مِنْهُ رِشْوَةَ قَمْحٍ حَتَّى تُشَيِّدُوا بُيُوتاً مِنْ حِجَارَةٍ مَنْحُوتَةٍ، فَإِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَسْكُنُوا فِيهَا، وَتَغْرِسُوا كُرُوماً شَهِيَّةً وَلَكِنَّكُمْ لَنْ تَشْرَبُوا مِنْ خَمْرِهَا. | ١١ |
12 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate [from their right].
| لأَنَّنِي عَالِمٌ بِكَثْرَةِ مَعَاصِيكُمْ وَعِظَمِ خَطَايَاكُمْ، إِذْ إِنَّكُمْ تُضَايِقُونَ الْبَارَّ أَيُّهَا الْمُرْتَشُونَ الَّذِينَ تَصُدُّونَ الْمِسْكِينَ عَنْ حَقِّهِ فِي سَاحَةِ الْقَضَاءِ. | ١٢ |
13 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it [is] an evil time.
| لِهَذَا يَصْمُتُ الْعَاقِلُ فِي مِثْلِ هَذَا الزَّمَانِ الرَّدِيءِ. | ١٣ |
14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
| اطْلُبُوا الْخَيْرَ لَا الشَّرَّ لِتَحْيَوْا، فَيَكُونَ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ الْقَدِيرُ مَعَكُمْ كَمَا تَقُولُونَ. | ١٤ |
15 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.
| امْقُتُوا الشَّرَّ وَأَحِبُّوا الْخَيْرَ وَأَقِيمُوا الْعَدْلَ فِي سَاحَةِ الْقَضَاءِ، لَعَلَّ الرَّبَّ الإِلَهَ الْقَدِيرَ يَتَرَفَّقُ عَلَى بَقِيَّةِ بَيْتِ يُوسُفَ. | ١٥ |
16 Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing [shall be] in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skillful in lamentation to wailing.
| لِذَلِكَ، هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ الرَّبُّ الإِلَهُ الْقَدِيرُ، سَيَمْلأُ النَّحِيبُ أَرْجَاءَ السَّاحَاتِ، وَيَرْتَفِعُ عَوِيلُهُمْ فِي الشَّوَارِعِ قَائِلِينَ: آهِ! آهِ! وَيَدْعُونَ الْفَلاحِينَ إِلَى الْبُكَاءِ، وَالنَّادِبَاتِ إِلَى الرِّثَاءِ، | ١٦ |
17 And in all vineyards [shall be] wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.
| وَتَعْلُو الْوَلْوَلَةُ فِي جَوَانِبِ الْكُرُومِ، لأَنِّي سَأَجْتَازُ مُنْتَقِماً فِي وَسَطِكُمْ يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ. | ١٧ |
18 Woe to you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end [is] it for you? the day of the LORD [is] darkness, and not light.
| وَيْلٌ للَّذِينَ يَتَشَوَّقُونَ لِيَوْمِ الرَّبِّ. لِمَاذَا تَطْلُبُونَ مَجِيءَ يَوْمِ الرَّبِّ؟ فَيَوْمُ الرَّبِّ هُوَ ظُلْمَةٌ لَا نُورٌ. | ١٨ |
19 As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
| فَتَكُونُونَ كَرَجُلٍ هَرَبَ مِنْ وَجْهِ أَسَدٍ فَلَقِيَهُ دُبٌّ، أَوْ كَمَنْ دَخَلَ إِلَى بَيْتٍ وَاتَّكَأَ بِيَدِهِ عَلَى حَائِطٍ فَلَدَغَتْهُ أَفْعَى. | ١٩ |
20 [Shall] not the day of the LORD [be] darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
| أَوَ لَيْسَ يَوْمُ الرَّبِّ ظُلْمَةً لَا نُوراً، وَقَتَاماً خَالِياً مِنَ الضِّيَاءِ؟ | ٢٠ |
21 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
| إِنِّي أَمْقُتُ أَعْيَادَكُمْ وَأَحْتَقِرُهَا، وَلا أُسَرُّ بِاحْتِفَالاتِكُمْ. | ٢١ |
22 Though ye offer me burnt-offerings and your meat-offerings, I will not accept [them]; neither will I regard the peace-offerings of your fat beasts.
| وَمَعَ أَنَّكُمْ تُقَرِّبُونَ لِي ذَبَائِحَ مُحْرَقَاتِكُمْ وَتَقْدِمَاتِكُمْ مِنَ الدَّقِيقِ، فَإِنِّي لَا أَقْبَلُهَا وَلا أَلْتَفِتُ إِلَى ذَبَائِحِ السَّلامِ مِنْ مُسَمَّنَاتِ مَوَاشِيكُمْ. | ٢٢ |
23 Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
| أَبْعِدُوا عَنِّي جَلَبَةَ أَغَانِيكُمْ لأَنِّي لَنْ أَصْغِيَ إِلَى نَغَمَاتِ رَبَابَاتِكُمْ. | ٢٣ |
24 But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
| إِنَّمَا لِيَجْرِ الْحَقُّ مُتَدَفِّقاً كَالْمِيَاهِ وَالْعَدْلُ كَنَهْرٍ سَيَّالٍ. | ٢٤ |
25 Have ye offered to me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
| هَلْ قَرَّبْتُمْ لِي ذَبَائِحَ وَتَقْدِمَاتٍ طَوَالَ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً فِي الْبَرِّيَّةِ، يَا بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ؟ | ٢٥ |
26 But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
| بَلْ إِنَّ الْمَلِكَ الَّذِي حَمَلْتُمْ خَيْمَتَهُ وَنَصْبَ تَمَاثِيلِهِ لَمْ يَكُنْ سِوَى نَجْمٍ صَنَعْتُمُوهُ لأَنْفُسِكُمْ وَعَبَدْتُمُوهُ كَإِلَهٍ. | ٢٦ |
27 Therefore I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD, whose name [is] The God of hosts.
| لِذَلِكَ أَسْبِيكُمْ إِلَى مَا وَرَاءَ دِمَشْقَ، يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ الَّذِي اسْمُهُ الإِلَهُ الْقَدِيرُ. | ٢٧ |
