< Amos 7 >

1 Oasr aruruma se nga liye sin LEUM GOD Fulat. In aruruma se inge nga liye El orala u in locust na lulap se tukunna pacl se kosreyukla mah nun kosro nutin tokosra, ac sruen mah uh mutawauk in srunak.
Thus did the Lord Jehovah shew unto me; and behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth, and behold, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings.
2 Ke aruruma sac nga liye ke locust uh mutawauk in kangla mah ac sra nukewa fin acn uh, na nga fahk, “LEUM GOD Fulat, nunak munas nu sin mwet in fwil natul Jacob! Elos ac moulla fuka? Elos arulana munas!”
And it came to pass, when they had wholly eaten the grass of the land, that I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
3 Na LEUM GOD El ekulla nunak lal ac fahk, “Ma kom liye uh ac fah tia sikyak.”
Jehovah repented for this: It shall not be, said Jehovah.
4 Nga sifil liye sie aruruma sin LEUM GOD Fulat. In aruruma sac, nga liye El akoo in kalyei mwet lal ke e. E sac furreak meoa lulap ye faclu, ac mutawauk in esukak acn uh.
Thus did the Lord Jehovah shew unto me; and behold, the Lord Jehovah called to contend by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and ate up the inheritance.
5 Na nga fahk, “O LEUM GOD Fulat, tulokinya e u! Mwet lom uh ac moulla fuka? Elos arulana pu ac munas!”
Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, cease, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
6 Na LEUM GOD El sifilpa ekulla nunak lal ac fahk, “Ma se inge ac fah tia pac sikyak.”
Jehovah repented for this: This also shall not be, said the Lord Jehovah.
7 Na nga sifil liye sie aruruma sin LEUM GOD. In aruruma se inge nga liye El tu sisken soko pot, ma mwet musa elos tuh orekmakin soko ah in aksuwos ke elos musai, ac LEUM GOD El sruok ah in aksuwos soko in paol.
Thus did he shew unto me; and behold, the Lord stood upon a wall [made] by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand.
8 El siyuk sik, “Amos, mea kom liye?” Na nga fahk, “Ah in aksuwos soko.” Na El fahk, “Nga orekmakin ah soko inge in akkalemye lah mwet luk elos oana soko pot ma kihla. Nga ac fah tia sifil ekulla nunak luk lah nga ac kalyaelos.
And Jehovah said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumb-line. And the Lord said, Behold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more.
9 Acn nukewa mwet in fwil natul Isaac alu we ac fah kunanula. Acn mutal lun Israel ac fah sruala. Nga ac wotela tokosrai lun sou lal Tokosra Jeroboam in wanginla.”
And the high places of Isaac shall be desolated, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will arise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
10 Na Amaziah, mwet tol fulat in acn Bethel, el supwala kas nu yorol Tokosra Jeroboam lun Israel, su fahk ouinge: “Amos el fahk kas in lain kom inmasrlon mwet uh. Sramsram lal uh ac kunausla facl se inge.
Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
11 Pa inge ma el fahk, ‘Jeroboam el fah misa ke mweun, ac mwet Israel fah utukla liki acn selos nu in sruoh.’”
For thus Amos saith: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall certainly go into captivity out of his land.
12 Na Amaziah el fahk nu sel Amos, “Mwet palu, folokla nu Judah ac oru luti lom in acn we. Lela mwet we in moli nu sum.
And Amaziah said unto Amos, [Thou] seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there.
13 Nimet sifilpa palu in acn Bethel. Acn in alu sin tokosra ac mwet in facl se inge nufon pa inge.”
But prophesy not again any more at Bethel; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is the house of the kingdom.
14 Na Amos el topuk, “Nga tia palu in moul nu sik. Nga sie mwet liyaung sheep, ac nga orekma ke sak fig.
And Amos answered and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruit.
15 Tuh pa LEUM GOD El eisyula liki orekma in mwet shepherd, ac sap nga in tuku ac palu nu sin mwet lal, mwet Israel.
And Jehovah took me as I followed the flock, and Jehovah said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
16 Inge, lohng ma LEUM GOD El fahk. Kom fahk nu sik nga in tia palu ac in tia kaskas lain mwet Israel.
And now hear thou the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and utter not [words] against the house of Isaac.
17 Ke kom fahk ouinge, Amaziah, LEUM GOD El fahk nu sum, ‘Mutan kiom an ac fah ekla sie mutan kosro su eis molin kosro lal in siti uh, ac tulik nutum ac fah anwuki ke mweun. Acn sum ac fah kitakatelik ac itukyang nu sin kutu pacna mwet, ac kom sifacna ac fah misa in facl sin mwet pegan. Pwayena mwet Israel fah utukla liki acn selos nu in sruoh.’”
Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided with the line; and thou shalt die in a land that is unclean; and Israel shall certainly go into captivity, out of his land.
