Amos 4
1 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, Who [are] in the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: 'Bring in, and we do drink.'
你们住撒马利亚山如巴珊母牛的啊， 当听我的话— 你们欺负贫寒的，压碎穷乏的， 对家主说：拿酒来，我们喝吧！
2 Sworn hath the Lord Jehovah by His holiness, That lo, days are coming upon you, And he hath taken you away with hooks, And your posterity with fish-hooks.
主耶和华指着自己的圣洁起誓说： 日子快到，人必用钩子将你们钩去， 用鱼钩将你们余剩的钩去。
3 And [by] breaches ye go forth, A woman [at that] over-against her, And ye have cast down the high place, An affirmation of Jehovah.
你们各人必从破口直往前行， 投入哈门。 这是耶和华说的。
4 Enter ye Beth-El, and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression, And bring in every morning your sacrifices, Every third year your tithes.
以色列人哪，任你们往伯特利去犯罪， 到吉甲加增罪过； 每日早晨献上你们的祭物， 每三日奉上你们的十分之一。
5 And perfume with leaven a thank-offering, And proclaim willing gifts, sound ye! For so ye have loved, O sons of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
任你们献有酵的感谢祭， 把甘心祭宣传报告给众人， 因为是你们所喜爱的。 这是主耶和华说的。
6 And I also — I have given to you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in all your places, And ye have not turned back unto Me, an affirmation of Jehovah.
我使你们在一切城中牙齿干净， 在你们各处粮食缺乏， 你们仍不归向我。 这是耶和华说的。
7 And I also — I have withheld from you the rain. While yet three months to harvest, And I have sent rain on one city, And on another city I do not send rain, One portion is rained on, And the portion on which it raineth not withereth.
在收割的前三月，我使雨停止， 不降在你们那里； 我降雨在这城， 不降雨在那城； 这块地有雨， 那块地无雨； 无雨的就枯干了。
8 And wandered have two or three cities, Unto the same city to drink water, And they are not satisfied, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
这样，两三城的人凑到一城去找水， 却喝不足； 你们仍不归向我。 这是耶和华说的。
9 I have smitten you with blasting and with mildew, The abundance of your gardens and of your vineyards, And of your figs, and of your olives, Eat doth the palmer-worm, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
我以旱风、霉烂攻击你们， 你们园中许多菜蔬、葡萄树、 无花果树、橄榄树都被剪虫所吃； 你们仍不归向我。 这是耶和华说的。
10 I have sent among you pestilence by the way of Egypt, I have slain by sword your choice ones, With your captive horses, And I cause the stink of your camps to come up — even into your nostrils, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
我降瘟疫在你们中间， 像在埃及一样； 用刀杀戮你们的少年人， 使你们的马匹被掳掠， 营中尸首的臭气扑鼻； 你们仍不归向我。 这是耶和华说的。
11 I have overturned among you, Like the overturn by God of Sodom and Gomorrah, And ye are as a brand delivered from a burning, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
我倾覆你们中间的城邑， 如同我从前倾覆所多玛、蛾摩拉一样， 使你们好像从火中抽出来的一根柴； 你们仍不归向我。 这是耶和华说的。
12 Therefore, thus I do to thee, O Israel, at last, Because this I do to thee, Prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
以色列啊，我必向你如此行； 以色列啊，我既这样行， 你当预备迎见你的 神。
13 For, lo, the former of mountains, and creator of wind, And the declarer to man what [is] His thought, He is making dawn obscurity, And is treading on high places of earth, Jehovah, God of Hosts, [is] His name!
那创山、造风、将心意指示人、 使晨光变为幽暗、脚踏在地之高处的， 他的名是耶和华—万军之 神。
