Amosa 2
1 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Moaba pārkāpumu dēļ - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tādēļ ka viņš sadedzinājis Edoma ķēniņa kaulus par kaļķiem,
This is what the Lord says: The people of Moab have repeatedly sinned and so I will not hesitate to punish them, because they desecrated the bones of the king of Edom by burning them, turning them into lime.
2 Tādēļ Es sūtīšu uguni Moabā, tas aprīs Ķiriota skaistos namus, un Moabs nomirs troksnī, kliegšanā un bazūņu skaņā.
So I will send down fire on Moab, and I will burn up the fortresses of Kerioth, and the people of Moab will die in the midst of uproar, battle cries, and the sound of the trumpet.
3 Un Es izdeldēšu soģi no viņa vidus un nokaušu visus viņa lielkungus līdz ar viņu, saka Tas Kungs.
I will cut down their king and all their princes with him, says the Lord.
4 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Jūda pārkāpumu dēļ, - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tādēļ ka tie Tā Kunga bauslību atmetuši un Viņa likumus nav sargājuši, un viņu meli(elki) tos pievīluši, kuriem viņu tēvi dzinušies pakaļ,
This is what the Lord says: The people of Judah have repeatedly sinned and so I will not hesitate to punish them, because they rejected the law of the Lord and have not kept his commands. Their lies have led them astray, the same lies that their forefathers followed.
5 Tādēļ Es sūtīšu uguni Jūdā, tas aprīs Jeruzālemes skaistos namus.
So I will send down fire on Judah, and I will burn up the fortresses of Jerusalem.
6 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Israēla pārkāpumu dēļ - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tāpēc ka tie taisno pārdod par naudu un nabagu par pāri kurpju.
This is what the Lord says: The people of Israel have repeatedly sinned and so I will not hesitate to punish them, because they sell good people for silver, and poor people for a pair of sandals.
7 Tie ilgojās, ka zemes pīšļi nabagiem nāk uz galvu, un bēdīgā ceļu tie kavē. Vīrs ar savu tēvu iet pie tās pašas meitas un sagāna Manu svēto vārdu.
They trample the heads of the poor into the dust, and push the needy out of the way. A man and his father have sex with the same servant girl so that my holy name is profaned.
8 Tie apmetās pie ikkatra altāra uz ķīlātām drēbēm, un dzer vīnu no notiesātiem, savu dievu namā.
At every altar they stretch themselves out in clothes taken from debtors as collateral, in the temple of their god they drink wine taken from the people they fined.
9 Es tomēr esmu izdeldējis to Amorieti viņu priekšā, kam augstums bija kā ciedru augstums, un kas bija stiprs kā ozoli; bet Es esmu nomaitājis viņa augļus augšā un viņa saknes apakšā.
Yet it was I was the one who destroyed the Amorites before you, even though they were as tall as cedars and as strong as oaks. I destroyed them root and branch.
10 Un Es tomēr jūs esmu izvedis no Ēģiptes un četrdesmit gadus jūs vadījis tuksnesī, ka jums bija iemantot Amoriešu zemi.
It was I who brought you out of the land of Egypt and led you through the desert for forty years so that you could take the Amorites' land.
11 Un citus no jūsu dēliem Es esmu cēlis par praviešiem un no jūsu jaunekļiem citus par nazīriem; vai tas tā nav, Israēla bērni? saka Tas Kungs.
I appointed some of your sons to be prophets, and some of your young men to be Nazirites. Isn't this true, people of Israel?
12 Bet jūs nazīriem dodiet vīnu dzert, un pavēliet praviešiem un sakāt: jums nebūs sludināt.
But you made the Nazirites sin by drinking wine, and you told the prophets, “Don't tell us what God says.”
13 Redzi, Es jums likšu čīkstēt kā rati čīkst, kas pilni kūļu,
Now see what I am going to do. I will crush you where you are, as if crushed by a heavy cart loaded down with sheaves of grain.
14 Tā ka čaklais neizbēgs, nedz stiprais ar savu spēku ko iespēs, nedz varenais savu dvēseli varēs izglābt.
Not even your fastest runners will escape; strong men will lose their strength. Even the greatest warrior will not be able to save his life.
15 Un stopu vilcējs nepastāvēs, un kas vieglām kājām, neizglābsies, un ne jājējs neizglābs savu dvēseli.
The archer will not stand his ground. The quickest on his feet will not be able to get away, and even those on horseback will not save themselves.
16 Un sirdsvarenais starp tiem stipriem aizbēgs kails tai dienā, saka Tas Kungs.
On that day even the bravest of the mighty warriors will run away naked, says the Lord.
