1 Ihe a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị mere ka m hụ. Lee, ọ na-akwado igwe igurube nke ga-abịa bibie ihe ubi niile ga-etopụta mgbe e burula ụzọ wee ihe ubi nke mbụ nke a na-enye eze, dịka ihe ruuru ya.
Nanku engakutshengiswa nguThixo Wobukhosi: Wayelungisa imitshitshi yezintethe emva kokuvunwa kwesabelo senkosi khonapho amabele esibili esakhula.
2 Mgbe ha tachara ahịhịa niile dị nʼala ahụ, etiri m mkpu: “Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị biko arịọọ m gị, gbaghara. Jekọb ọ ga-esi aṅa guzosie ike? Lee, ọ dịkarịrị nta.”
Kwathi lapho ilizwe seziliphundlile, ngamemeza ngathi, “Thixo Wobukhosi, thethelela! UJakhobe angaphepha kanjani? Mncinyane kakhulu!”
3 Onyenwe anyị chegharịrị banyere ihe ndị a. Onyenwe anyị kwuru sị, “Ihe dị otu a agaghị emekwa.”
Ngakho uthixo waxola. “Akusoze kwenzakale” watsho uthixo.
4 Ihe a ka Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị gosiri m: Lee, Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị na-akpọku ọkụ iji ya kpee ikpe. Ọkụ ahụ repịara ogbu mmiri, repịakwa ala ahụ niile.
Nanku engakutshengiswa nguThixo Wobukhosi: uThixo Wobukhosi wayememezela ukwehlulela ngomlilo; womisa ulwandle waqothula lelizwe.
5 Mgbe ahụ, asịrị m, “Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị biko, arịọọ m gị kwụsị! Olee otu Jekọb ga-esi guzosie ike? Lee na ọ dịkarịrị nta!”
Ngakho ngamemeza ngathi “Thixo Wobukhosi, ngiyakuncenga, ake ume! UJakhobe angaphepha kanjani na? Mncinyane kakhulu!”
6 Onyenwe anyị chegharịrị banyere ihe ndị a. Onye kachasị ihe niile elu, bụ Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Ihe dị otu a agaghị emekwa.”
Ngakho uThixo waxola. “Lokhu lakho akuyikwenzakala,” kwatsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
7 Nke a ka o gosiri m, lee, Onyenwe anyị na-eguzo nʼakụkụ mgbidi nke e ji ihe ịtụ mgbidi tụọ nke ọma, o jikwa ihe ịtụ mgbidi nʼaka ya.
Nanku angitshengisa khona: uThixo wayemi phansi komduli owawakhiwe waqonda nta ephethe intambo yokuqondisa ngesandla sakhe
8 Onyenwe anyị sịrị m, “Emọs, gịnị ka ị na-ahụ?” Asịrị m, “Ihe ịtụ mgbidi.” Mgbe ahụ, Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “Lee, mụ onwe m na-edo ihe ịtụ mgbidi nʼetiti ndị m bụ Izrel, agaghịkwa m esi ebe ha nọ gafee.
UThixo wasengibuza esithi, “Kuyini okubonayo, Amosi?” Ngaphendula ngathi, “Yintambo yokuqondisa.” UThixo wasesithi, “Khangela, ngibeka intambo yokuqondisa phakathi kwabantu bami bako-Israyeli; kangisayikubaxolela futhi.
9 “Ebe niile e wuliri elu nke Aịzik aghaghị ịbụ ebe e mebiri emebi, ebe nsọ niile nke Izrel aghaghị ịbụ ebe tọgbọrọ nʼefu, aghakwaghị m iweli mma agha m elu iji megide ụlọ Jeroboam.”
Izindawo eziphakemeyo zika-Isaka zizadilizwa lezindawo ezingcwele zako-Israyeli zizachithwa; indlu kaJerobhowamu ngizayihlasela ngenkemba yami.”
10 Mgbe ahụ, Amazaya onye nchụaja nọ na Betel zigaara Jeroboam bụ eze Izrel ozi na-asị, “Emọs na-akwalị izu nzuzo ka ọ megide gị nʼetiti ụlọ Izrel, ala apụghị ibu okwu niile sị ya nʼọnụ apụta.
U-Amaziya umphristi waseBhetheli wathumela ilizwi kuJerobhowamu inkosi yako-Israyeli, wathi, “U-Amosi uceba okubi ngawe khona kanye phakathi kwako-Israyeli. Ilizwe lingeke limelane lawo wonke amazwi akhe.
11 Nke bụ ihe Emọs nọ na-asị, “‘Jeroboam aghaghị ịnwụ site na mma agha, Izrel aghakwaghị isite nʼala amụrụ ha jee biri nʼala ọzọ, dịka ndị a dọtara nʼagha.’”
Ngoba u-Amosi uthi: ‘UJerobhowamu uzakufa ngenkemba, njalo impela u-Israyeli uzathunjwa, asiwe khatshana kwelizwe lakibo.’”
12 Mgbe ahụ, Amazaya gwara Emọs, “Gị onye ọhụ ụzọ, gbara ọsọ gbalaa ala Juda. Jee nʼebe ahụ, rie achịcha nke sitere nʼibu amụma gị, nọrọkwa nʼebe ahụ buo amụma gị.
U-Amaziya wasesithi ku-Amosi, “Phuma, wena mboni! Buyela elizweni lakoJuda, usebenzele ukudla kwakho khonale wenze lokuphrofetha kwakho khonale.
13 Ebula amụma ọzọ na Betel, nʼihi na ọ bụ ebe nsọ nke eze, ọ bụkwa ụlọnsọ ukwu nke alaeze ya.”
Ungaphrofithi futhi eBhetheli, ngoba le yindawo yenkosi kanye lethempeli lombuso.”
14 Mgbe ahụ, Emọs zaghachiri Amazaya, “Ọ dịghị mgbe m bụ onye amụma, abụkwaghị m nwa onye amụma, kama abụ m onye na-elekọta igwe ewu na atụrụ, na onye ọrụ na-azụ osisi sikamọ.
U-Amosi waphendula u-Amaziya wathi, “Mina ngangingasuye mphrofethi kumbe indodana yomphrofethi, kodwa ngangingumelusi, njalo ngigcina izihlahla zomkhiwa wesikhamore.
15 Ma Onyenwe anyị sitere nʼebe ịzụ igwe ewu na atụrụ kpọpụta m, Onyenwe anyị sịrị m: ‘Gaa buoro ndị m Izrel amụma.’
Kodwa uThixo wangithatha ekweluseni imihlambi yezimvu wathi kimi, ‘Hamba uyephrofetha ebantwini bami bako-Israyeli.’
16 Nʼihi ya, ugbu a nụrụ okwu Onyenwe anyị, ma unu na-asị, “‘Ebula amụma megide Izrel, ekwukwala okwu megide ụlọ Aịzik.’
Ngakho-ke khathesi zwana ilizwi likaThixo. Wena uthi: ‘Ungaphrofethi kubi ngo-Israyeli, njalo yekela ukutshumayela kubi ngendlela ka-Isaka.’
17 “Ya mere, otu a ka Onyenwe anyị kwuru, “‘Nwunye gị ga-aghọ nwanyị na-agba akwụna nʼime obodo. Ụmụ gị ndị nwoke na ndị nwanyị ka a ga-eji mma agha gbuo. A ga-atụ ala gị nʼihe ọtụtụ, kewasịa ya nye ndị ọzọ, ma gị onwe gị ga-anwụ nʼala rụrụ arụ. A ghakwaghị ịdọta Izrel nʼagha mee ka ha gaa biri nʼala ndị mba ọzọ.’”
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Umkakho uzakuba yisifebe edolobheni, amadoda lamadodakazi akho azakufa ngenkemba. Ilizwe lakho lizalinganiswa labiwe, njalo wena ngokwakho uzafela elizweni lamaqaba. Njalo impela u-Israyeli uzathunjwa asiwe khatshana kwelizwe lakhe.’”
