Amosa 2
1 OLELO mai o Iehova, penei; No na hala ekolu o ka Moaba, a me ka ha, Aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia; No ka mea, ua puhi aku ia i na iwi o ke alii o Edoma i puna.
Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away from it; because they burnt the bones of the king of Idumea to lime.
2 Aka, e hoolei aku au i ke ahi iloko o Moaba; A e hoopau aku ia i na halealii o Kiriota: A e make ana ka Moaba, me ka haunaele, Me ka hooho, a me ke kani ana o ka pu.
But I will send forth a fire on Moab, and it shall devour the foundations of its cities: and Moab shall perish in weakness, with a shout, and with the sound of a trumpet.
3 A e hooki aku au i ka lunakanawai mai waena mai ona, A e pepehi aku au i kona mau luna a pau me ia, wahi a Iehova.
And I will destroy the judge out of her, and slay all her princes with him, saith the Lord.
4 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova, peneia; No na hala ekolu o ka Iuda, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia; No ka mea, ua hoowahawaha lakou i ke kanawai o Iehova, A ua malama ole i kana mau kauoha, A ua hoauwana aku la ko lakou mau mea wahahee ia lakou, Mamuli o na mea a ko lakou mau makua i hele ai:
Thus saith the Lord; For three sins of the children of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away from him; because they have rejected the law of the Lord, and have not kept his ordinances, and their vain [idols] which they made, which their fathers followed, caused them to err.
5 Aka, e hoouna aku au i ke ahi maluna o Iuda, A e hoopau aku ia i na halealii o Ierusalema.
And I will send a fire on Juda, and it shall devour the foundations of Jerusalem.
6 Ke olelo mai nei o Iehova penei; No na hala ekolu o ka Iseraela, a me ka ha, aole au e hoololi ae i kona hoopaiia; No ka mea, ua kuai aku lakou i ka poe pono no ke kala, A i ka mea ilihune no ka paa kamaa;
Thus saith the Lord; for three sins of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away from him; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for sandals,
7 E kuko ana i ka lepo o ka honua maluna o ke poo o na ilihune, A hoololi ae i ka hoaponoia o ka poe popilikia: A komo aku ke kanaka, a me kona makuakane iloko i ke kaikamahine hookahi, I mea e hoohaumia'i i ko'u inoa hoano;
wherewith to tread on the dust of the earth, and they have smitten upon the heads of the poor, and have perverted the way of the lowly: and a son and his father have gone into the same maid, that they might profane the name of their God.
8 A moe iho lakou maluna o na kapa i laweia i ukupanai, ma kela kuahu keia kuahu, A inu no lakou i ka waina o ka poe i hoopaiia ma ka hale o ko lakou mau akua.
And binding their clothes with cords they have made them curtains near the altar, and they have drunk wine gained by extortion in the house of their God.
9 A ua luku aku au i ka Amora imua o lakou, O kona kiekie, ua like me ke kiekie o na laau kedara, A o kona ikaika, ua like me na laau oka; Aka, ua luku aku au i kona hua maluna, A me kona aa malalo.
Nevertheless I cut off the Amorite from before them, whose height was as the height of a cedar, and he was strong as an oak; and I dried up his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10 A ua lawe mai hoi au ia oukou mai ka aina o Aigupita mai, A alakai ia oukou ma ka waonahele i na makahiki he kanaha, E komo ai i ka aina o ka Amora.
And I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you about in the desert forty years, that ye should inherit the land of the Amorites.
11 A ua hoolilo au i kekahi o ka oukou poe keiki, i poe kaula, A o ka poe kanaka opiopio o oukou, i poe Nazarite. Aole anei pela, e na mamo a Iseraela? wahi a Iehova.
And I took of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for consecration. Are not these things so, ye sons of Israel? saith the Lord.
12 Aka, hooinu oukou i ka poe Nazarite i ka waina, A papa aku oukou i na kaula, i aku la, Mai wanana oukou.
But ye gave the consecrated ones wine to drink; and ye commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13 Aia hoi, e kaomi iho au ia oukou, E like me ke kaomi ana o ke kaa i piha i na pua.
Therefore, behold, I roll under you, as a waggon full of straw is rolled.
14 A e nalowale ka mama mai ka mea mama aku, A o ka mea ikaika, aole ia e hookupaa i kona ikaika, Aole hoi e hoopakele ka mea mana ia ia iho.
And flight shall perish from the runner, and the strong shall not hold fast his strength, and the warrior shall not save his life:
15 Aole hoi e kupaa ka mea e lawe ana i ke kakaka; A o ka mea wawae mama, aole ia e pakele: Aole hoi ka mea holo maluna o ka lio e hoopakele i kona ola.
and the archer shall not withstand, and he that is swift of foot shall in no wise escape; and the horseman shall not save his life.
16 A o ka mea ikaika ma kona naau iwaena o ka poe ikaika, E holo kohana aku ia ia la, wahi a Iehova.
And the strong shall find no confidence in power: the naked shall flee away in that day, saith the Lord.
