< Amos 4 >
1 Denggenyo daytoy a sao, dakayo a baka iti Basan, dakayo nga adda iti bantay ti Samaria, dakayo a mangidaddadanes kadagiti marigrigat, dakayo a mangparparigat kadagiti agkasapulan, dakayo a mangibagbaga kadagiti assawayo a lalaki, “Iyegandakami ti mainum.”
Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, Who [are] in the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: 'Bring in, and we do drink.'
2 Nagsapata ni Yahweh nga Apo babaen iti kinasantona: “Kitaenyo, dumtengto kadakayo dagiti aldaw nga alaendakayto babaen kadagiti kaw-it ken dagiti nabati kadakayo babaen kadagiti banniit.
Sworn hath the Lord Jehovah by His holiness, That lo, days are coming upon you, And he hath taken you away with hooks, And your posterity with fish-hooks.
3 Rumuarkayonto babaen kadagiti rengngat iti pader ti siudad, tunggal maysa kadakayo ket rumuarto kadagitoy ket maitappuakkayonto iti Harmon —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
And [by] breaches ye go forth, A woman [at that] over-against her, And ye have cast down the high place, An affirmation of Jehovah.
4 “Mapankayo idiay Betel ket ipapasyo ti agbasol, mapankayo idiay Gilgal ket paadoenyo dagiti basbasolyo. Iyegyo dagiti datunyo iti tunggal agsapa, dagiti apagkapulloyo iti tunggal maikatlo nga aldaw.
Enter ye Beth-El, and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression, And bring in every morning your sacrifices, Every third year your tithes.
5 Mangidatagkayo iti tinapay a kas sagut a panagyaman; iparammagyo dagiti daton a nagtaud iti nakemyo; ipablaakyo dagitoy, gapu ta daytoy ti pagragsakanyo, dakayo a tattao ti Israel—daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh nga Apo.
And perfume with leaven a thank-offering, And proclaim willing gifts, sound ye! For so ye have loved, O sons of Israel, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah.
6 “Inyegko kadakayo ti panagbisin iti amin a siudadyo ken kinakurang ti tinapay iti amin a lugaryo. Ngem saankayo a nagsubli kaniak —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
And I also — I have given to you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in all your places, And ye have not turned back unto Me, an affirmation of Jehovah.
7 “Saanko pay a pinagtudo idi panawen nga adda pay iti tallo a bulan sakbay iti panagaapit. Pinagtudok iti maysa a siudad, ngem saanko a pinagtudo ti dadduma siudad. Maysa a paset iti daga ti natudoan, ngem ti paset ti daga a saan a natudoan ket nagtikag.
And I also — I have withheld from you the rain. While yet three months to harvest, And I have sent rain on one city, And on another city I do not send rain, One portion is rained on, And the portion on which it raineth not withereth.
8 Nagakar akar ti dua wenno tallo a siudad iti sabali a siudad tapno uminum, ngem saanda a napnek. Ngem saankayo a nagsubli kaniak —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
And wandered have two or three cities, Unto the same city to drink water, And they are not satisfied, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
9 “Pinarigatkayo gapu iti panaglaylay ken buot. Inibus dagiti dudon ti amin a minuyonganyo, dagiti kaubasanyo, dagiti kayoyo nga igos ken dagiti kayoyo nga olibo. Ngem saankayo a nagsubli kaniak— daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
I have smitten you with blasting and with mildew, The abundance of your gardens and of your vineyards, And of your figs, and of your olives, Eat doth the palmer-worm, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
10 Nangiyegak iti didigra kadakayo a kas iti inaramidko idiay Egipto. Pinatayko dagiti agtutuboyo a lalaki babaen iti kampilan, intalawko dagiti kabalioyo, impaalingasawko ti buyok iti kampoyo ket dimanun kadagiti agungyo. Ngem saankayo a nagsubli kaniak— daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
I have sent among you pestilence by the way of Egypt, I have slain by sword your choice ones, With your captive horses, And I cause the stink of your camps to come up — even into your nostrils, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
11 “Pinarmekko dagiti siudadyo a kas idi pinarmek ti Dios ti Sodoma ken Gomora. Kayariganyo ti sumsumged a bislak a naikkat iti apoy. Ngem saankayo a nagsubli kaniak —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”
I have overturned among you, Like the overturn by God of Sodom and Gomorrah, And ye are as a brand delivered from a burning, And ye have not turned back unto Me, An affirmation of Jehovah.
12 Ngarud, nakabutbuteng ti aramidekto kadakayo, tattao ti Israel; ken gapu ta nakabutbuteng ti aramidekto kadakayo, agsaganakayo a sumango iti Diosyo, tattao ti Israel!
Therefore, thus I do to thee, O Israel, at last, Because this I do to thee, Prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
13 Kitaenyo, ti nangaramid kadagiti bantay isuna met lang ti nangparsua ti angin, ipakpakaammona ti kapanunotanna kadagiti tattao, pagbalbalinenna a sipnget ti aldaw ken agbadbadek kadagiti nangangato a disso iti daga.” Yahweh, Dios a mannakabalin amin ti naganna.
For, lo, the former of mountains, and creator of wind, And the declarer to man what [is] His thought, He is making dawn obscurity, And is treading on high places of earth, Jehovah, God of Hosts, [is] His name!
