Amos 8
1 Nga liye sie pac aruruma sin LEUM GOD Fulat. Ke aruruma se inge nga liye sie fotoh in fokinsak.
Thus hath the Lord GOD shown to me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
2 Na LEUM GOD El siyuk, “Amos, mea kom liye?” Ac nga topuk, “Fotoh in fokinsak se.” Na LEUM GOD El fahk nu sik, “Pacl safla lun mwet luk, mwet Israel, summa. Nga fah tia sifil ekulla nunak luk in kalyaelos.
And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the LORD to me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
3 In len sac, on engan ke inkul sin tokosra fah ekla nu ke pusren tung. Monin mwet misa ac fah oalik acn uh. Ke pacl se sisila elos, ac fah wangin pusra lohngyuk.”
And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord GOD: [there shall be] many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast [them] forth with silence.
4 Porongo ma inge, kowos su lolongya mwet enenu, ac srike in kunausla mwet sukasrup in facl se inge.
Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
5 Kowos sifacna nunku ouinge: “Pahtla kufwen Malem Sasu in tari, tuh kut in kukakin wheat lasr uh. Ac safla ngac len Sabbath, kut in ku in sifil mutawauk kuka? Na kut ac kulak molo uh in yohk, ac orekmakin mwe srikasrak sutuu, ac urokla mwe paun in kiapu mwet moul yorosr.
Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
6 Kut ku in kukakin wheat kolukla ke mol yohk. Kut fah molela kutu mwet sukasrup su tia ku in akfalye soemoul lalos — finne molin sori se elos tia ku in molela — tuh elos in mwet kohs lasr.”
That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; and even sell the refuse of the wheat?
7 LEUM GOD, su mwet Israel elos akfulatye, El orala sie wulela ku ac fahk, “Nga fah tiana mulkunla orekma koluk lalos.
The LORD hath sworn by the excellence of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.
8 Ouinge faclu fah kusrusryak, ac mwet nukewa ac fah tuninfongla. Facl se inge nufon ac fah usrusryak — ac fah mutyak ac putati oana Infacl Nile.
Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth in it? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood: and it shall be cast out and drowned, as [by] the flood of Egypt.
9 Pacl se ac fah tuku ke nga fah oru faht uh in tili ke infulwen len, ac faclu ac fah lohsrla ke srakna len. Nga, LEUM GOD Fulat, pa fahk ouinge.
And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10 Nga fah ekulla len in kufwa lowos nu ke len in asor, ac on engan lowos nu ke pusren tung. Nga fah oru kowos in mangsrasraela insifowos ac nukum nuknuk yohk eoa, ac kowos fah oana papa ac nina su mwemelil ke wen sefanna natultal misa. Ma nukewa ma sikyak ke len sac mwe asor mukefanna.
And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only [son], and the end of it as a bitter day.
11 “Pacl se ac fah tuku ke nga fah supwama sracl nu fin acn uh. Mwet uh ac fah masrinsral, tuh tia nu ke mwe mongo. Elos ac fah malu, tuh tia nu ke mwe nim. Elos ac masrinsral ac malu nu ke kas in luti sin LEUM GOD. Nga, LEUM GOD, pa fahk ouinge.
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD:
12 Mwet uh ac fah foroht forma liki Meoa Misa nu ke Meoa Mediterranean, ac ke tafunyen epang nu ke layen kutulap. Elos ac fah suk kas in luti sin LEUM GOD yen nukewa, tuh elos ac fah tiana konauk.
And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find [it].
13 In len sac, finne mukul fusr ac mutan fusr su ku in mano, elos fah mulalla ke malu.
In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
14 Elos su fulahk ke ma sruloala lun Samaria ac fahk, ‘Ke inen god lun Dan,’ ku ‘Ke inen god lun Beersheba,’ elos ac fah ikori ac tia sifil tukakek.”
They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise again.
