< Amos 1 >

1 Words of Amos — who hath been among herdsmen of Tekoa — that he hath seen concerning Israel, in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the shaking;
Pa inge kas lal Amos, sie mwet liyaung sheep, ac el mwet in siti srisrik Tekoa. Yac luo meet liki kusrusr se ma sikyak in acn Israel, God El fahkak nu sel Amos ke ma inge nukewa su ma nu sin mwet Israel. In pacl sac Uzziah el tokosra lun Judah, ac Jeroboam wen natul Jehoash, el tokosra lun Israel.
2 and he saith: Jehovah from Zion doth roar, And from Jerusalem giveth forth His voice, And mourned have pastures of the shepherds, And withered hath the top of Carmel!
Amos el fahk, “Pusren LEUM GOD ngirngir Fineol Zion me. Pusracl kasla oana pusren pulahl Jerusalem me. Insroan mah uh paola, Ac sak folfol insroa Fineol Carmel uli.”
3 And thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Damascus, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their threshing Gilead with sharp-pointed irons,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Damascus elos kalweni na in oru ma koluk, ac ke sripa inge pwayena nga fah kalyaelos. Elos arulana sulallal in anwuk nu sin mwet Gilead.
4 And I have sent a fire against the house of Hazael, And it hath consumed the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
Ouinge nga fah supwala e nu fin lohm sin tokosra su musaiyukla sel Tokosra Hazael, ac nga fah esukak pot ku lal Tokosra Benhadad.
5 And I have broken the bar of Damascus, And cut off the inhabitant from Bikat-Aven, And a holder of a sceptre from Beth-Eden, And removed have been the people of Aram to Kir, said Jehovah.
Nga fah lipikya mutunpot ke siti Damascus, ac moklela leum lun Betheden ac mwet muta Infahlfal Aven. Mwet Syria ac fah sruhu ac utukla nu Kir.”
6 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gaza, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their removing a complete captivity, To deliver up to Edom,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Gaza elos kalweni na in oru ma koluk, ac ke sripa inge pwayena nga fah kalyaelos. Elos usla un mwet puspis ac kukakunulosyang in mwet kohs nu sin mwet Edom.
7 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Gaza, And it hath consumed her palaces;
Ouinge nga fah supwala e nu fin pot kuhlusyen siti Gaza, ac esukak pot ku lun acn we.
8 And I have cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, And a holder of a sceptre from Ashkelon, And have turned back My hand against Ekron, And perished have the remnant of the Philistines, Said the Lord Jehovah.
Nga fah sisla mwet leum lun siti Ashdod ac Ashkelon. Nga fah kalyei siti Ekron, ac mwet Philistia nukewa su lula fah misa.”
9 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their delivering up a complete captivity to Edom, And they remembered not the brotherly covenant,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Tyre elos kalweni na in oru ma koluk, ac ke sripa inge pwayena nga fah kalyaelos. Elos usla un mwet puspis nu ke sruoh in acn Edom, ac tia karinganang wuleang in akasrui ma elos tuh orala.
10 And I have sent a fire against the wall of Tyre, And it hath consumed her palaces.
Ke ma inge nga fah supwala e nu fin pot kuhlusyen siti Tyre, ac esukak pot ku we.”
11 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of his pursuing with a sword his brother, And he hath destroyed his mercies, And tear perpetually doth his anger, And his wrath — he hath kept it for ever,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Edom elos kalweni na in oru ma koluk, ac ke sripa inge pwayena nga fah kalyaelos. Elos ukweya mwet wialos mwet Israel, ac tia pakoten nu selos. Kasrkusrak lalos arulana upa, tiana ku in wanginla.
12 And I have sent a fire against Teman, And it hath consumed palaces of Bozrah.
Ouinge nga fah supwala e nu fin siti Teman, ac esukak pot ku lun Bozrah.”
13 Thus said Jehovah: For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their ripping up the pregnant ones of Gilead, To enlarge their border,
LEUM GOD El fahk, “Mwet Ammon elos kalweni na in oru ma koluk, ac ke sripa inge pwayena nga fah kalyaelos. Ke sripen elos kena akyokye acn selos elos som mweuni acn Gilead ac tiyala insien mutan pitutu we.
14 And I have kindled a fire against the wall of Rabbah, And it hath consumed her palaces, With a shout in a day of battle, With a whirlwind in a day of hurricane,
Ke ma inge nga fah supwala e nu fin pot kuhlusyen siti Rabbah, ac esukak pot ku we. Na ac fah oasr pusren sasa ke len in mweun, ac mweun uh fah ngisyak oana paka se.
15 And gone hath their king in a removal, He and his heads together, said Jehovah!
Tokosra ac mwet pwapa lal fah utukla nu in sruoh.”
