Amos Propheta 2
1 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Moab et super quattuor non convertam eum eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idumeae usque ad cinerem
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four, I will not turn away its 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 on Moab, and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth; and Moab will 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 their midst, and will kill all its officials with him," says Jehovah.
4 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Iuda et super quattuor non convertam eum eo quod abiecerint legem Domini et mandata eius non custodierint deceperunt enim eos idola sua post quae abierant patres eorum
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have rejected Jehovah's law, and have not kept his statutes. Their false idols which they made, after which their fathers walked, have led them astray.
5 et mittam ignem in Iuda et devorabit aedes Hierusalem
But I will send a fire on Judah, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem."
6 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Israhel et super quattuor non convertam eum pro eo quod vendiderit argento iustum et pauperem pro calciamentis
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy 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
They trample on the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and deny justice to the oppressed; and a man and his father use the same maiden, to profane my holy name;
8 et super vestimentis pigneratis accubuerunt iuxta omne altare et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui
and they lay themselves down beside every altar on clothes taken in pledge; and in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
9 ego autem exterminavi Amorreum 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 height was like the height 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 eduxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis ut possideretis terram Amorrei
Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11 et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas et de iuvenibus vestris nazarenos numquid non ita est filii Israhel dicit Dominus
I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Isn't this true, you children of Israel?" says Jehovah.
12 et propinabatis nazarenis vino et prophetis mandabatis dicentes ne prophetetis
"But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, 'Do not prophesy.'
13 ecce ego stridebo super vos sicut stridet plaustrum onustum faeno
Look, I will crush you in your place, as a cart crushes that is full of grain.
14 et peribit fuga a veloce et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam et robustus non salvabit animam suam
Flight will perish from the swift; and the strong won't 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 who handles the bow; and he who is swift of foot won't escape; neither shall he who rides the horse deliver himself;
16 et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in die illa dicit Dominus
and he who is courageous among the mighty will flee away naked on that day," says Jehovah.
