< Amos Propheta 2 >
1 Haec dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Moab, et super quattuor non convertam eum: eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idumaeae usque ad cinerem.
Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Moab, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of his burning the bones of the king of Edom to lime,
2 Et mittam ignem in Moab, et devorabit aedes Carioth: et morietur in sonitu Moab, in clangore tubae:
And I have sent a fire against Moab, And it has consumed the palaces of Kerioth, And Moab is dying with noise, With shouting, with voice of a horn.
3 et disperdam iudicem de medio eius, et omnes principes eius interficiam cum eo, dicit Dominus.
And I have cut off judge from her midst, And I slay all its heads with him,” said YHWH.
4 Haec dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Iuda, et super quattuor non convertam eum: eo quod abiecerit legem Domini, et mandata eius non custodierit: deceperant enim eos idola sua, post quae abierant patres eorum.
Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Judah, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their loathing the Law of YHWH, And His statutes they have not kept, And their lies cause them to err, After which their fathers walked,
5 Et mittam ignem in Iuda, et devorabit aedes Ierusalem.
And I have sent a fire against Judah, And it has consumed palaces of Jerusalem.”
6 Haec dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Israel, et super quattuor non convertam eum: pro eo quod vendiderit pro argento iustum, et pauperem pro calceamentis.
Thus said YHWH: “For three transgressions of Israel, And for four, I do not reverse it, Because of their selling the righteous for silver, And the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 Qui conterunt super pulverem terrae capita pauperum, et viam humilium declinant: et filius ac pater eius ierunt ad puellam, ut violarent nomen sanctum meum.
Who are panting for the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, And the way of the humble they turn aside, And a man and his father go to the girl, So as to defile My holy Name.
8 Et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerunt iuxta omne altare: et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui.
And they stretch themselves on pledged garments near every altar, And the wine of fined ones they drink [in] the house of their gods.
9 Ego autem exterminavi Amorrhaeum a facie eorum: cuius altitudo, cedrorum altitudo eius, et fortis ipse quasi quercus: et contrivi fructum eius desuper, et radices eius subter.
And I have destroyed the Amorite from before them, Whose height [is] as the height of cedars, And he [is] strong as the oaks, And I destroy his fruit from above, And his roots from beneath.
10 Ego sum, qui ascendere vos feci de Terra Aegypti, et duxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis ut possideretis terram Amorrhaei.
And I have brought you up from the land of Egypt, And cause you to go in a wilderness forty years, To possess the land of the Amorite.
11 Et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas, et de iuvenibus vestris nazaraeos: numquid non ita est filii Israel dicit Dominus?
And I raise of your sons for prophets, And of your choice ones for Nazarites, Is this not true, O sons of Israel?” A declaration of YHWH.
12 Et propinabitis nazaraeis vinum: et prophetis mandabitis, dicentes: Ne prophetetis.
“And you cause the Nazarites to drink wine, And on the prophets you have laid a charge, Saying, Do not prophesy!
13 Ecce ego stridebo subter vos, sicut stridet plaustrum onustum foeno.
Behold, I am pressing you under, As the full cart presses a sheaf for itself.
14 Et peribit fuga a veloce, et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam, et robustus non salvabit animam suam:
And refuge has perished from the swift, And the strong does not strengthens his power, And the mighty does not deliver his soul.
15 et tenens arcum non stabit, et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur, et ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam:
And the handler of the bow does not stand, And the swift does not deliver [himself] with his feet, And the rider of the horse does not deliver his soul.
16 et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in illa die, dicit Dominus.
And the courageous of heart among the mighty, Flees naked in that day,” A declaration of YHWH!
