Amos 7
1 The Lord God schewide these thingis to me; and lo! a makere of locust in bigynnyng of buriownynge thingis of euentid reyn, and lo! euentid reyn after the clippere of the kyng.
Hili ndilo alilonionyesha Bwana Mwenyezi katika maono: Alikuwa anaandaa makundi ya nzige baada ya kuvunwa fungu la mfalme na wakati ule tu mimea ya pili ilipokuwa ikichipua.
2 And it was don, whanne he hadde endid for to ete the erbe of erthe, Y seide, Lord God, Y biseche, be thou merciful; who schal reise Jacob, for he is litil?
Wakati nzige walikuwa wamekula mimea yote ya nchi, nililia kwa sauti kuu, “Bwana Mwenyezi, samehe! Je, Yakobo atawezaje kuendelea kuishi? Yeye ni mdogo sana!”
3 The Lord hadde merci on this thing; It schal not be, seide the Lord God.
Kwa hiyo Bwana akaghairi. Kisha Bwana akasema, “Hili halitatokea.”
4 The Lord God schewide to me these thingis; and lo! the Lord God schal clepe doom to fier, and it schal deuoure myche depthe of watir, and it eet togidere a part.
Hili ndilo Bwana Mwenyezi alilonionyesha katika maono: Bwana Mwenyezi alikuwa akiita hukumu ya moto; nao ulikausha vilindi vikuu, ukateketeza nchi.
5 And Y seide, Lord God, Y biseche, reste thou; who schal reise Jacob, for he is litil?
Ndipo nikalia, “Bwana Mwenyezi, nakusihi, zuia! Je, Yakobo atawezaje kuendelea kuishi? Yeye ni mdogo sana!”
6 The Lord hadde merci on this thing; But and this thing schal not be, seide the Lord God.
Kwa hiyo Bwana akaghairi. Bwana Mwenyezi akasema, “Hili nalo halitatokea.”
7 The Lord God schewide to me these thingis; and lo! the Lord stondinge on a wal plastrid, and in the hond of hym was a trulle of a masoun.
Hili ndilo alilonionyesha katika maono: Bwana alikuwa amesimama karibu na ukuta ambao ulikuwa umejengwa kwa timazi, akiwa na uzi wa timazi mkononi mwake.
8 And the Lord seide to me, What seest thou, Amos? And Y seide, A trulle of a masoun. And the Lord seide, Lo! I schal putte a trulle in the myddil of my puple Israel; Y schal no more putte to, for to ouerlede it;
Naye Bwana akaniuliza, “Je, Amosi unaona nini?” Nikamjibu, “Uzi wa timazi.” Kisha Bwana akasema, “Tazama, ninaweka uzi wa timazi miongoni mwa watu wangu Israeli; sitawahurumia tena.
9 and the hiy thingis of idol schulen be distried, and the halewyngis of Israel schulen be desolat; and Y schal rise on the hous of Jeroboam bi swerd.
“Mahali pa Isaki pa juu pa kuabudia miungu pataangamizwa, na mahali patakatifu pa Israeli pa kuabudia pataharibiwa; kwa upanga wangu nitainuka dhidi ya nyumba ya Yeroboamu.”
10 And Amasie, prest of Bethel, sente to Jeroboam, kyng of Israel, and seide, Amos rebellide ayens thee, in the myddil of the hous of Israel; the lond mai not susteyne alle hise wordis.
Kisha Amazia kuhani wa Betheli akatuma ujumbe kwa Yeroboamu mfalme wa Israeli, akisema: “Amosi analeta fitina juu yako katikati ya Israeli. Nchi haiwezi kuvumilia maneno yake yote.
11 For Amos seith these thingis, Jeroboam schal die bi swerd, and Israel caitif schal passe fro his lond.
Kwa kuwa hili ndilo Amosi analosema: “‘Yeroboamu atakufa kwa upanga, na kwa hakika Israeli watakwenda uhamishoni, mbali na nchi yao.’”
12 And Amasie seide to Amos, Thou that seest, go; fle thou in to the lond of Juda, and ete thou there thi breed; and there thou schalt profesie.
Kisha Amazia akamwambia Amosi, “Nenda zako, ewe mwonaji! Urudi katika nchi ya Yuda. Ujipatie riziki yako huko na kutoa unabii wako.
13 And thou schalt no more put to, that thou profesie in Bethel, for it is the halewyng of the king, and is the hous of the rewme.
Usiendelee kutoa unabii katika Betheli, kwa sababu hapa ni mahali pa mfalme pa kuabudia na Hekalu la ufalme huu.”
14 And Amos answeride, and seide to Amasie, Y am not a profete, and Y am not sone of profete; but an herde of neet Y am, drawyng vp sicomoris.
Amosi akamjibu Amazia, “Mimi sikuwa nabii wala mwana wa nabii, lakini nilikuwa mchungaji wa kondoo na mtunza mikuyu.
15 And the Lord took me, whanne Y suede the floc; and the Lord seide to me, Go, and profesie thou to my puple Israel.
Lakini Bwana akanitoa kutoka kuchunga kondoo na kuniambia, ‘Nenda, ukawatabirie watu wangu Israeli.’
16 And now here thou the word of the Lord. Thou seist, Thou schalt not profesie on Israel, and thou schal not droppe on the hous of idol.
Sasa basi, sikieni neno la Bwana. Ninyi mnasema, “‘Usitabiri dhidi ya Israeli, na uache kuhubiri dhidi ya nyumba ya Isaki.’
17 For this thing the Lord seith these thingis, Thi wijf schal do fornicacioun in the citee, and thi sones and thi douytris schal falle bi swerd, and thi lond schal be motun with a litil coord; and thou schalt die in a pollutid lond, and Israel caitif schal passe fro his lond.
“Kwa hiyo hili ndilo asemalo Bwana: “‘Mke wako atakuwa kahaba mjini, nao wana wako na binti zako watauawa kwa upanga. Shamba lako litapimwa na kugawanywa, na wewe mwenyewe utafia katika nchi ya kipagani. Nayo Israeli kwa hakika itakwenda uhamishoni, mbali na nchi yao.’”
