Amosi 2
1 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia matatũ ma Moabi, o na mana-rĩ, niĩ ndikahũndũra mangʼũrĩ makwa. Tondũ nĩacinire mahĩndĩ ma mũthamaki wa Edomu, magĩtuĩka ta coka,
Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Moab, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has burned the bones of the king of Idumea, all the way to ashes.
2 nĩngaitĩrĩria Moabi mwaki ũrĩa ũgaacina ciĩhitho iria nũmu cia Keriothu. Moabi nĩakagũa thĩ na mũrurumo mũnene, gatagatĩ-inĩ ka mbugĩrĩrio ya mbaara, na kũhuhwo kwa mũgambo wa karumbeta.
And I will send a fire onto Moab, and it will devour the buildings of Kerioth. And Moab will die with a noise, with the blare of a trumpet.
3 Nĩngananga mwathi wakuo, na njũrage anene ake othe hamwe nake,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And I will destroy the judge in their midst, and I will execute all his leaders with him, says the Lord.
4 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ: “Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia matatũ ma Juda, o na mana-rĩ, niĩ ndikahũndũra mangʼũrĩ makwa. Tondũ nĩmaregete watho wa Jehova, na makaaga kũrũmia irĩra ciake cia watho wa kũrũmĩrĩrwo, tondũ nĩmahĩtithĩtio nĩ ngai cia maheeni, ngai iria maithe mao ma tene maarũmagĩrĩra.
Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Judah, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has rejected the law of the Lord and has not kept his commandments. For their idols, which their fathers followed, have deceived them.
5 Nĩngaitĩrĩria Juda mwaki ũrĩa ũgaacina ciĩhitho iria nũmu cia Jerusalemu.”
And I will send a fire onto Judah, and it will devour the buildings of Jerusalem.
6 Jehova ekuuga atĩrĩ; “Nĩ ũndũ wa mehia matatũ ma Isiraeli, o na mana-rĩ, niĩ ndikahũndũra mangʼũrĩ makwa. Mendagia andũ arĩa athingu betha, na arĩa abatari-rĩ, makamendia nyamũga igĩrĩ.
Thus says the Lord: For three wicked deeds of Israel, and for four, I will not convert him, in so far as he has sold the just for silver and the poor for shoes.
7 Marangagĩrĩria mĩtwe ya arĩa athĩĩni taarĩ rũkũngũ rwa thĩ, na makaagithia kĩhooto arĩa ahinyĩrĩrie. Mũndũ na ithe makomaga na mũirĩtu ũmwe, nĩ ũndũ ũcio magathaahia rĩĩtwa rĩakwa itheru.
They grind the heads of the poor into the dust of the earth, and they divert the way of the humble. And the son, as well as his father, have gone to the same girl, so that they outrage my holy name.
8 Makomaga harĩa hothe harĩ na kĩgongona, magakomera nguo iria irutĩtwo irũgamĩrĩre thiirĩ. Kũu thĩinĩ wa nyũmba ya ngai yao, nĩkuo manyuuagĩra ndibei ĩrĩa ĩrutĩtwo ya ndooco.
And they have lain on garments taken in pledge next to every altar. And they drank the wine of the damned in the house of their God.
9 “Nĩndanangire Aamori mehere mbere yao, o na gũtuĩka maarĩ araihu ta mĩtĩ ya mĩtarakwa, na marĩ na hinya ta mĩtĩ ya mĩgandi. Nĩndanangire matunda make kuuma na igũrũ, na ngĩananga mĩri yake kuuma na thĩ.
Yet I exterminated the Amorites before their face, whose height was like the height of cedars, and whose strength was like the oak. And I crushed his fruit from above and his roots below.
10 “Ndakwambatirie ngĩkũruta bũrũri wa Misiri, na ngĩgũtongoria mĩaka mĩrongo ĩna kũu werũ-inĩ, nĩguo ngũhe bũrũri wa Aamori.
It is I who caused you to ascend from the land of Egypt, and I led you in the wilderness for forty years, so that you might possess the land of the Amorite.
11 Ningĩ nĩndarahũrire anabii kuuma kũrĩ ariũ aku, na ngĩarahũra Anaziri kuuma kũrĩ aanake aku. Githĩ ũcio ti ũhoro wa ma, inyuĩ andũ a Isiraeli?” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And I stirred up prophets from your sons, and Nazirites from your young men. Is it not so, sons of Israel, says the Lord?
12 “No inyuĩ nĩmwaheire Anaziri ndibei manyue, na mũgĩatha anabii matikanarathe ũndũ.
Yet you would offer wine to the Nazirites, and you would command the prophets, saying: “Do not prophesy.”
13 “Na rĩrĩ, niĩ nĩngamũhehenja o ta ũrĩa ngaari ĩiyũrĩte ngano ĩhehenjaga.
Behold, I will creak under you, just as a wagon creaks that is laden with hay.
14 Mũndũ ũrĩa ũrĩ ihenya ndakahota kwĩhonokia. Ũrĩa ũrĩ hinya ndagateithio nĩ hinya ũcio wake, nayo njamba ya ita ndĩkahonokia muoyo wayo.
And flight will perish from the swift, and the strong will not maintain his strength, and the healthy will not save his life.
15 Mũrathi na mĩguĩ ndakeyũmĩrĩria, na mũthigari ũrĩa ũhiũkaga ndakahota kũũra, na ũrĩa ũhaicĩte mbarathi ndakahonokia muoyo wake.
And one holding the bow will not stand firm, and the swift of foot will not be saved, and the rider on the horse will not save his life.
16 O nacio njamba cia ita iria nyũmĩrĩru mũno, ikoora irĩ njaga mũthenya ũcio,” ũguo nĩguo Jehova ekuuga.
And the stout of heart among the strong will flee away naked in that day, says the Lord.
