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 saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away [his punishment]: because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 Et mittam ignem in Moab, et devorabit aedes Carioth: et morietur in sonitu Moab, in clangore tubae:
But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, [and] with the sound of the trumpet:
3 et disperdam iudicem de medio eius, et omnes principes eius interficiam cum eo, dicit Dominus.
And I will cut off the judge from the midst of it, and will slay all its princes with him, saith the LORD.
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 saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away [their punishment]: because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after which their fathers have walked:
5 Et mittam ignem in Iuda, et devorabit aedes Ierusalem.
But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the 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 saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away [their punishment]: because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
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.
That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in to the [same] maid, to profane my holy name:
8 Et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerunt iuxta omne altare: et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui.
And they lay [themselves] down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned [in] the house of their god.
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.
Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose hight [was] like the hight of the cedars, and he [was] strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed 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.
Also I brought you from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, 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 raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. [Is it] not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
12 Et propinabitis nazaraeis vinum: et prophetis mandabitis, dicentes: Ne prophetetis.
But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13 Ecce ego stridebo subter vos, sicut stridet plaustrum onustum foeno.
Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed [that is] full of sheaves.
14 Et peribit fuga a veloce, et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam, et robustus non salvabit animam suam:
Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15 et tenens arcum non stabit, et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur, et ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam:
Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and [he that is] swift of foot shall not deliver [himself]: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
16 et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in illa die, dicit Dominus.
And [he that is] courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.
