Amos 9

1 Nakitak ti Apo nga agtaktakder iti abay ti altar, ket kinunana, “Pang-orem ti tuktok dagiti adigi tapno magunggon dagiti pundasion. Burakem dagitoy iti rabaw dagiti uloda ket patayekto dagiti natda kadakuada babaen iti kampilan. Awanto ti makapanaw kadakuada, awanto ti makalibas kadakuada.

I saw the Lord standing by the altar; and he said: Smite the capital, so that the thresholds shall tremble! Break them in pieces upon the heads of all of them! And their residue will I slay with the sword. He that fleeth of them shall not flee from danger, And he that escapeth of them shall not escape into safety.

2 Uray no agkalida nga umuneg iti sheol, alaento ida ti imak sadiay. Uray no umulida iti langit, ibabakto ida. (Sheol h7585)

Though they dig down to the under-world, Thence shall my hand take them; Though they climb up to heaven, Thence will I bring them down. (Sheol h7585)

3 Uray no aglemmengda iti tuktok ti Carmel, birukekto ida ket alaek ida. Uray no aglemmengda iti imatangko iti lansad ti baybay, bilinekto ti uleg sadiay ket kagatennanto ida.

Though they hide themselves on the top of Carmel, There will I search for them, and take them away; Though they hide themselves from mine eyes in the bottom of the sea, There will I command the serpent, and he shall bite them.

4 Uray no maitalawdanto a kas balud, nga adda dagiti kabusorda iti sangoananda, bilinekto ti kampilan sadiay ket patayennanto ida. Imatmatkonto dagiti matak kadakuada para iti pagdaksan saan a pagsayaatan.”

Though they go into captivity before their enemies, There will I command the sword, and it shall slay them; I will set mine eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

5 Ti Apo a Yahweh a mannakabalin amin, sagidenna ti daga ket marunaw daytoy; agladingit ti amin nga agnanaed iti daytoy; ngumatonto ti amin a kas iti Karayan ken lumnedto manen a kas ti Karayan ti Egipto.

For the Lord Jehovah of hosts Is he, that toucheth the earth, and it shall melt, And all that dwell therein shall mourn; All of it shall rise in waves like a river, And shall be overflowed, as by the river of Egypt;

6 Isuna ti nangaramid kadagiti siledna idiay langit, ti nangipasdek ti tangatangna iti ngatoen ti daga. Aw-awaganna ti danum iti baybay, ket ibuybuyatna dagitoy iti rabaw ti daga, Yahweh ti naganna.

He that buildeth his upper rooms in the heavens, And foundeth his arch upon the earth, —That calleth the waters of the sea, And poureth them out upon the face of the earth, —Jehovah is his name.

7 “Saankayo kadi a kas kadagiti tattao ti Etiopia kaniak, tattao ti Israel?”—daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh. Saan kadi nga inruarko ti Israel manipud iti daga ti Egipto, dagiti Filisteo manipud iti Creta, ken dagiti taga-Aram manipud iti Kir?

Are ye not as the Ethiopians to me, O children of Israel? saith Jehovah. Did I not bring Israel from the land of Egypt, And the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

8 Kitaenyo, kitkitaen ti Apo a Yahweh ti managbasol a pagarian, ket dadaelekto daytoy iti rabaw ti daga, ngem saankonto a dadaelen amin ti balay ni Jacob —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh.”

Behold, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah are upon the sinful kingdom, And I will destroy it from the face of the earth; Yet will I not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith Jehovah.

9 “Kitaem, mangtedakto iti bilin, ket yakayakekto ti balay ti Israel kadagiti amin a pagilian a kas iti panangyakayak ti maysa a tao kadigiti bukbukel, tapno saan a matinnag iti daga ti kabassitan a bato.

For, behold, I will command, And I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, As one sifteth corn with a sieve, And not a grain shall fall upon the ground.

10 Amin dagiti managbasol kadagiti tattaok ket matayto babaen iti kampilan, dagiti mangibagbaga, 'Saannatayonto a kamakamen wenno sabaten ti didigra.’”

But all the sinners of my people shall die by the sword, Who say, Evil shall not approach, nor fall upon us.

11 “Iti dayta nga aldaw, bangonekto ti tolda ni David a natuang ket serraakto dagiti siwangna. Bangonekto dagiti nadadael a pasetna ken ipatakderkonto manen daytoy a kas idi nagkauna nga al-aldaw.

In that day I will raise up the fallen tabernacle of David, And I will close up the breaches thereof, And raise up its ruins, And I will build it, as in the days of old.

12 Iti kasta ket tagikuaenda ti nabati ti Edom ken amin a nasion a naawagan iti naganko —daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh a mangar-aramid iti daytoy.”

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations, which shall be called by my name. Thus saith Jehovah, who doeth this.

13 “Kitaenyo, dumtengto dagiti aldaw” —Daytoy ti imbaga ni Yahweh— “Inton unaan ti agar-arado ti gumagapas, ken unaan ti para pespes ti ubas ti agmulmula ti bukel. Agtedtedto dagiti bantay iti nasam-it nga arak ken agayusto dagitoy iti amin a turod.

Behold the days come, saith Jehovah, That the plougher shall draw near to the reaper, And the treader of grapes to the sower of the seed; And the mountains shall drop new wine, And all the hills shall melt.

14 Isublikto dagiti tattaok nga Israel manipud iti pannakaibaludda. Bangonendanto dagiti nadadael a siudad ket agnaedda kadagitoy, agmuladanto kadagiti kaubasan ket inumendanto ti arak manipud kadagitoy, ken agmuladanto kadagiti minuyongan ket kanendanto ti prutas manipud kadagitoy.

I will bring back the captives of my people Israel, And they shall build the desolate cities, and shall inhabit them; And they shall plant vineyards, and drink their wine; They shall also make gardens, and eat their fruit.

15 Imulakto ida iti dagada, ket saandanton a maparut iti uray kaanoman manipud iti daga nga intedko kadakuada,” kuna ni Yahweh a Diosyo.

I will plant them in their land, And they shall no more be rooted up from the land which I have given them, Saith Jehovah, thy God.
