< Amosa 1 >
1 O NA olelo a Amosa, ka mea iwaena o na kahu bipi o Tekoa, na mea ana i ike ai no ka Iseraela, i na la o Uzia, ke alii o ka Iuda, a i na la o Ieroboama, ke keiki a Ioasa, ke alii o ka Iseraela, elua makahiki mamua o ke olai.
The words of 'Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he foresaw concerning Israel in the days of 'Uzziyah the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 A i aku la ia, E uwo mai o Iehova mai Ziona mai, A e hoopuka mai i kona leo mai Ierusalema mai; E uwe no na wahi noho o na kahuhipa, A e maloo ka piko o Karemela.
And he said, The Lord will cry aloud out of Zion, and from Jerusalem will he send forth his voice; and then shall mourn the pastures of the shepherds, and then shall dry up the top of Carmel.
3 Penei ka Iehova i olelo ai; No na hala ekolu o Damaseko, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia, No ka mea, ua hehi lakou i ko Gileada me ka mea hao e hehi palaoa ai:
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have threshed [the inhabitants of] Gil'ad with threshing instruments of iron;
4 A e hoouna'ku ai i ke ahi iloko o ka hale o Hazaela, Ka mea e hoopau ai i na hale alii o Benehadada.
And I will send a fire into the house of Chazael, which shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
5 A e haki no ia'u ke kaola o Damaseko, A e hooki aku au i na kanaka mai ke awawa o Avena aku, A me ka mea e hoopaa ana i ke kookoo alii, mai ka hale o Edena aku: A e hele pio aku la na kanaka o Suria i Kira, wahi a Iehova.
And I will break the bars of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitants from the valley of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of 'Eden: and the people of Syria shall be exiled unto Kir, saith the Lord.
6 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, penei; No na hala ekolu o Gaza, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia; No ko lakou lawe pio ana i ka poe pio a pau, A haawi aku ia lakou i ka Edoma;
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Gazzah, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they carried away exiles in full numbers, to deliver them up to Edom;
7 Aka, e hoolei aku au i ke ahi maloko o ka papohaku o Gaza, A e hoopau aku ia i kona mau halealii;
And I will send a fire against the wall of Gazzah, which shall devour her palaces;
8 A e hooki aku au i kanaka mai Asedoda aku, A me ka mea e hoopaa ana i ka hoailona moi mai Asekelona aku; A e hooku e aku au i kuu lima i Ekerona; A e make ke koena o ko Pilisetia, wahi a Iehova ka Haku.
And I will cut off the inhabitants from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn my hand against 'Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord Eternal.
9 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, peneia; No na hala ekolu, o Turo, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia: No ka mea, ua hoolilo lakou i ka poe pio a pau i ko Edoma, Aole hoi i hoomanao i ka berita o na hoahanau:
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they delivered up the exiles in full numbers to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant;
10 Aka, e hoolei aku au i ke ahi iloko o ka papohaku o Turo, Ka mea e hoopau ai i kona mau halealii.
And I will send a fire against the walls of Tyre, which shall devour her palaces.
11 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, penei; No na hala ekolu o ka Edoma, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia: No ka mea, ua hahai aku ia i kona hoahanau me ka pahikaua, A ua haalele aku i kona aloha, A ua haehae mau loa kona inaina, A ua hoomau loa ia i kona huhu.
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because he pursued with the sword his brother, and disregarded his mercy, and his anger tore in pieces continually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
12 A e hoolei aku au i ke ahi iloko o Temana, A e hoopau aku ia i na halealii o Bozera.
And I will send out a fire against Theman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, penei; No na hala ekolu o na mamo a Amona, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia; No ka mea, ua kaha aku lakou i na wahine hapai o Gileada, I hoopalahalaha aku ai lakou i ko lakou palena:
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of the children of 'Ammon, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have ripped up the pregnant women of Gil'ad, in order to enlarge their own territory;
14 Aka, e hoa aku au i ke ahi iloko o ka papohaku o Raba, A e hoopau aku ia i na halealii ona, Me ka hooho i ka la o ke kaua, Me ka ino i ka la o ka puahiohio:
And I will kindle a fire within the walls of Rabbah, which shall devour her palaces, with shouting on the day of battle, with a storm on the day of the tempest;
15 A e hele aku no ko lakou alii iloko o ke pio, Oia a me kana mau kaukaualii kekahi, wahi a Iehova.
And their king shall go into exile, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
