< Amos 4 >

1 Porongo kas inge, kowos mutan Samaria, su fatelik oana cow fact in acn Bashan. Kowos oru koluk nu sin mwet munas, ac akkeokye mwet sukasrup, ac kowos kifasten nu sin mukul tomowos in usot mwe sruhi nimowos.
Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, that oppress the poor, that crush the needy, that say to their lords, Bring, and let us drink:
2 LEUM GOD Fulat El wulela ke Ine mutal lal, ac fahk, “Pwayena len se ac fah tuku ke mwet uh fah srumasrkowosla ke ka, ac amakinkowosla. Kais sie suwos ac fah oana soko ik sremla ke ka uh.
the Lord Jehovah hath sworn by his holiness, that behold, days shall come upon you, when he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fish-hooks;
3 Ac fah amala kowos nu ke acn ma patla ke pot uh, ac tolokla kowos nu likin kalkal uh.”
and ye shall go out by the breaches, every one straight before her, and ye shall be cast out to Harmon, saith Jehovah.
4 LEUM GOD Fulat El fahk, “Mwet Israel, ke kowos lungse na oru ma koluk, tari fahla nu Bethel, acn mutal, ac oru ke kuiyowos nufon! Fahla nu Gilgal ac laesla orekma koluk lowos! Use kosro uh ac orek kisa ke lotutang nukewa, ac use pac sie tafu singoul ke len aktolu nukewa.
Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices in the morning, your tithes every three days,
5 Us na bread tuh in mwe sang kulo lowos nu sin God, ac konkin ke ma kowos sang in laesla mwe sang lowos an. Mweyen pa ingan ma kowos muta lungse oru.
and burn a thank-offering with leaven, and proclaim, publish, voluntary offerings: for this pleaseth you, children of Israel, saith the Lord Jehovah.
6 “Nga pa pwanang in oasr sracl in acn suwos nukewa. Ne ouinge, kowos tiana foloko nu yuruk.
And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places; yet ye have not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
7 Nga tulokinya in tia af ke pacl se sacn sunowos enenu na af yohk. Nga lela in af ke sie siti, a wangin af ke sie pac siti. Af kahkla nu fin sie ima, a ima saya pulamlamlana.
And I also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece [of land] was rained upon, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
8 Ke sripen elos kofla muteng malu lalos, mwet in siti puspis som sukok kof in sie pacna siti, tuh tiana fal in kitalos. Ne ouinge kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.
And two, three, cities wandered unto one city, to drink water, and were not satisfied: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
9 “Nga supwala sie eng fol tuh in fulokla sacn sunowos. Locust uh kangla ima in mahsrik, ima in grape, sak fig ac sak olive sunowos, a kowos srak pacna tia foloko nu yuruk.
I have smitten you with blasting and mildew; the palmer-worm hath devoured the multitude of your gardens, and your vineyards, and your fig-trees and your olive-trees: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
10 “Nga sot sie kain mas upa nu fowos oana ke nga tuh oru nu fin acn Egypt. Nga onela mukul fusr nutuwos ke mweun, ac eisla horse nutuwos. Nga nwakla infwewos ke foulin mwet misa in nien aktuktuk lowos. A kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.
I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, taking away captive your horses; and I made the stench of your camps to come up, even into your nostrils: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
11 “Nga kunausla kutu suwos oana nga tuh kunausla Sodom ac Gomorrah. Kowos su moulla, kowos oana wosr se itukla liki e. A kowos tia pacna foloko nu yuruk.” LEUM GOD El fahk ouinge.
I have overthrown among you, like God's overthrow of Sodom and Gomorrah, and ye were as a brand plucked out of the burning; yet have ye not returned unto me, saith Jehovah.
12 “Ke ma inge, nga fah kalyei kowos, mwet Israel. Ac ke sripa se inge, kowos in akola in tu ye mutuk ke pacl in nununku luk!”
Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: because I will do this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
13 God pa orala fineol uh, Ac orala eng uh. El oru tuh nunak lal in eteyuk sin mwet uh. El ekulla len uh nu ke fong. El leumi faclu nufon. Inel pa inge: LEUM GOD Kulana!
For behold, he who formeth the mountains, and createth the wind, and declareth unto man what is his thought, who maketh the morning darkness, and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, — Jehovah, the God of hosts, is his name.
