< Amos 6 >
1 Taku ta ƙare, ku da kuke zaman sakewa a Sihiyona, da ku waɗanda kuke ji zama a Dutsen Samariya lafiya ne, ku manyan mutanen ƙasar da take sananniya, waɗanda mutanen Isra’ila suke zuwa!
Woe to those at ease in Zion and those secure on Mount Samaria, the distinguished ones of the foremost nation, to whom the house of Israel comes.
2 Ku je Kalne ku dube ta; ku wuce daga can zuwa Hamat-rabba, sa’an nan ku gangara zuwa Gat a Filistiya. Sun fi masarautunku biyu ne? Ƙasarsu ta fi taku girma?
Cross over to Calneh and see; go from there to the great Hamath; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are you better than these kingdoms? Is their territory larger than yours?
3 Kuna ƙoƙari ku kauce wa wannan muguwar rana kuna kuma jawo mulkin tashin hankali kusa.
You dismiss the day of calamity and bring near a reign of violence.
4 Kuna kwanciya a kan gadajen da aka yi musu shimfiɗar hauren giwa kuna mimmiƙe a kan kujerunku. Kuna cin naman ƙibabbun raguna da na ƙosassun’yan maruƙa.
You lie on beds inlaid with ivory, and lounge upon your couches. You dine on lambs from the flock and calves from the stall.
5 Kuna kaɗa molayenku yadda Dawuda ya yi kuna ƙirƙiro waƙoƙi a kan kayan kaɗe-kaɗe.
You improvise songs on the harp like David and invent your own musical instruments.
6 Da manyan kwanoni kuke shan ruwan inabi kuna kuma shafa mai mafi kyau, amma ba kwa baƙin ciki game da kangon da Yusuf ya zama.
You drink wine by the bowlful and anoint yourselves with the finest oils, but you fail to grieve over the ruin of Joseph.
7 Saboda haka za ku zama na farkon da za su tafi zaman bauta; bukukkuwanku da shagulgulanku za su ƙare.
Therefore, you will now go into exile as the first of the captives, and your feasting and lounging will come to an end.
8 Ubangiji Mai Iko Duka da kansa ya rantse, Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki ya furta, “Ina ƙyamar girman kan Yaƙub, ba na kuma son kagarunsa; zan ba da birnin da duk abin da yake cikinta.”
The Lord GOD has sworn by Himself—the LORD, the God of Hosts, has declared: “I abhor Jacob’s pride and detest his citadels, so I will deliver up the city and everything in it.”
9 Ko da mutum goma ne suka ragu a gida guda, su ma za su mutu.
And if there are ten men left in one house, they too will die.
10 In kuma wani dangi ya shiga don yă fitar da gawawwakin yă ƙone ya kuwa tambayi wani wanda yake ɓoye a can, yana cewa, “Akwai wani tare da kai?” Ya kuwa ce, “Babu,” sai yă ce, “Kul! Kada mu ambaci sunan Ubangiji.”
And when the relative who is to burn the bodies picks them up to remove them from the house, he will call to one inside, “Is anyone else with you?” “None,” that person will answer. “Silence,” the relative will retort, “for the name of the LORD must not be invoked.”
11 Gama Ubangiji ya ba da umarni, zai kuma ragargaza babban gidan nan kucu-kucu ƙaramin gidan kuwa zai yi rugu-rugu da shi.
For the LORD gives a command: “The great house will be smashed to pieces, and the small house to rubble.”
12 Dawakai sukan yi gudu a kan duwatsu? Wani yana iya yin noma a teku da shanun noma? Amma ga shi kun mai da gaskiya ta zama dafi amfanin adalci kuma ya zama ɗaci,
“Do horses gallop on the cliffs? Does one plow the sea with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood—
13 ku da kuke murna saboda an ci Lo Debar da yaƙi kuka kuma ce, “Ba da ƙarfinmu ne muka ƙwace Karnayim ba?”
you who rejoice in Lo-debar and say, ‘Did we not take Karnaim by our own strength?’
14 Gama Ubangiji Allah Maɗaukaki ya ce, “Zan sa wata ƙasa ta tayar muku, ya ku gidan Isra’ila, wadda za tă matsa muku tun daga Lebo Hamat zuwa kwarin Araba.”
For behold, I will raise up a nation against you, O house of Israel,” declares the LORD, the God of Hosts, “and they will oppress you from Lebo-hamath to the Brook of the Arabah.”
