< עמוס 7 >
כֹּה הִרְאַנִי אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה וְהִנֵּה יוֹצֵר גֹּבַי בִּתְחִלַּת עֲלוֹת הַלָּקֶשׁ וְהִנֵּה־לֶקֶשׁ אַחַר גִּזֵּי הַמֶּֽלֶךְ׃ | 1 |
Thus hath the Lord God shewed vnto mee, and beholde, he formed grashoppers in the beginning of ye shooting vp of the latter grouth: and loe, it was in the latter grouth after the Kings mowing.
וְהָיָה אִם־כִּלָּה לֶֽאֱכוֹל אֶת־עֵשֶׂב הָאָרֶץ וָֽאֹמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה סְֽלַֽח־נָא מִי יָקוּם יַעֲקֹב כִּי קָטֹן הֽוּא׃ | 2 |
And when they had made an ende of eating the grasse of the land, then I saide, O Lord God, spare, I beseeche thee: who shall raise vp Iaakob? for he is small.
נִחַם יְהֹוָה עַל־זֹאת לֹא תִֽהְיֶה אָמַר יְהֹוָֽה׃ | 3 |
So the Lord repented for this. It shall not be, saith the Lord.
כֹּה הִרְאַנִי אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה וְהִנֵּה קֹרֵא לָרִב בָּאֵשׁ אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה וַתֹּאכַל אֶת־תְּהוֹם רַבָּה וְאָכְלָה אֶת־הַחֵֽלֶק׃ | 4 |
Thus also hath the Lord God shewed vnto me, and behold, the Lord God called to iudgement by fire, and it deuoured the great deepe, and did eate vp a part.
וָאֹמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִה חֲדַל־נָא מִי יָקוּם יַעֲקֹב כִּי קָטֹן הֽוּא׃ | 5 |
Then said I, O Lord God, cease, I beseeche thee: who shall raise vp Iaakob? for he is small.
נִחַם יְהֹוָה עַל־זֹאת גַּם־הִיא לֹא תִֽהְיֶה אָמַר אֲדֹנָי יֱהֹוִֽה׃ | 6 |
So the Lord repented for this. This also shall not be, saith the Lord God.
כֹּה הִרְאַנִי וְהִנֵּה אֲדֹנָי נִצָּב עַל־חוֹמַת אֲנָךְ וּבְיָדוֹ אֲנָֽךְ׃ | 7 |
Thus againe he shewed me, and behold, the Lord stoode vpon a wall made by line with a line in his hand.
וַיֹּאמֶר יְהֹוָה אֵלַי מָֽה־אַתָּה רֹאֶה עָמוֹס וָאֹמַר אֲנָךְ וַיֹּאמֶר אֲדֹנָי הִנְנִי שָׂם אֲנָךְ בְּקֶרֶב עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא־אוֹסִיף עוֹד עֲבוֹר לֽוֹ׃ | 8 |
And the Lord saide vnto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A line. Then said the Lord, Beholde, I wil set a line in the middes of my people Israel, and wil passe by them no more.
וְנָשַׁמּוּ בָּמוֹת יִשְׂחָק וּמִקְדְּשֵׁי יִשְׂרָאֵל יֶחֱרָבוּ וְקַמְתִּי עַל־בֵּית יָרׇבְעָם בֶּחָֽרֶב׃ | 9 |
And the hye places of Izhak shalbe desolate, and the temples of Israel shalbe destroyed: and I wil rise against the house of Ieroboam with the sworde.
וַיִּשְׁלַח אֲמַצְיָה כֹּהֵן בֵּֽית־אֵל אֶל־יָרׇבְעָם מֶלֶךְ־יִשְׂרָאֵל לֵאמֹר קָשַׁר עָלֶיךָ עָמוֹס בְּקֶרֶב בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל לֹא־תוּכַל הָאָרֶץ לְהָכִיל אֶת־כׇּל־דְּבָרָֽיו׃ | 10 |
Then Amaziah the Priest of Beth-el sent to Ieroboam King of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the middes of the house of Israel: the lande is not able to beare all his wordes.
כִּי־כֹה אָמַר עָמוֹס בַּחֶרֶב יָמוּת יָרׇבְעָם וְיִשְׂרָאֵל גָּלֹה יִגְלֶה מֵעַל אַדְמָתֽוֹ׃ | 11 |
For thus Amos saith, Ieroboam shall die by the sworde, and Israel shalbe led away captiue out of their owne land.
וַיֹּאמֶר אֲמַצְיָה אֶל־עָמוֹס חֹזֶה לֵךְ בְּרַח־לְךָ אֶל־אֶרֶץ יְהוּדָה וֶאֱכׇל־שָׁם לֶחֶם וְשָׁם תִּנָּבֵֽא׃ | 12 |
Also Amaziah sayde vnto Amos, O thou the Seer, goe, flee thou away into the land of Iudah, and there eate thy bread and prophecie there.
וּבֵֽית־אֵל לֹא־תוֹסִיף עוֹד לְהִנָּבֵא כִּי מִקְדַּשׁ־מֶלֶךְ הוּא וּבֵית מַמְלָכָה הֽוּא׃ | 13 |
But prophecie no more at Beth-el: for it is the Kings chappel, and it is the Kings court.
וַיַּעַן עָמוֹס וַיֹּאמֶר אֶל־אֲמַצְיָה לֹא־נָבִיא אָנֹכִי וְלֹא בֶן־נָבִיא אָנֹכִי כִּי־בוֹקֵר אָנֹכִי וּבוֹלֵס שִׁקְמִֽים׃ | 14 |
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no Prophet, neither was I a prophets sonne, but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of wilde figs.
וַיִּקָּחֵנִי יְהֹוָה מֵאַחֲרֵי הַצֹּאן וַיֹּאמֶר אֵלַי יְהֹוָה לֵךְ הִנָּבֵא אֶל־עַמִּי יִשְׂרָאֵֽל׃ | 15 |
And the Lord tooke me as I followed the flocke, and the Lord said vnto me, Go, prophecie vnto my people Israel.
וְעַתָּה שְׁמַע דְּבַר־יְהֹוָה אַתָּה אֹמֵר לֹא תִנָּבֵא עַל־יִשְׂרָאֵל וְלֹא תַטִּיף עַל־בֵּית יִשְׂחָֽק׃ | 16 |
Now therefore heare thou the word of the Lord. Thou sayest, Prophecie not against Israel, and speake nothing against the house of Izhak.
לָכֵן כֹּה־אָמַר יְהֹוָה אִשְׁתְּךָ בָּעִיר תִּזְנֶה וּבָנֶיךָ וּבְנֹתֶיךָ בַּחֶרֶב יִפֹּלוּ וְאַדְמָתְךָ בַּחֶבֶל תְּחֻלָּק וְאַתָּה עַל־אֲדָמָה טְמֵאָה תָּמוּת וְיִשְׂרָאֵל גָּלֹה יִגְלֶה מֵעַל אַדְמָתֽוֹ׃ | 17 |
Therefore thus sayth the Lord, Thy wife shall be an harlot in the citie, and thy sonnes and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be deuided by line: and thou shalt die in a polluted land, and Israel shall surely go into captiuitie forth of his land.
