< Amosa 4 >
1 Klausiet šo vārdu, Basanas govis, kas Samarijas kalnā, kas nospaida mazos, satriec nabagus, kas uz saviem kungiem saka: nesiet šurp, ka dzeram.
Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, that are in the mountain of Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which say to their masters, Bring, and let us drink.
2 Tas Kungs Dievs ir zvērējis pie Sava svētuma: redzi, dienas nāks pār jums, ka jūs aizvilks ar kāšiem un jūsu beidzamos ar zivju makšķerēm,
The Lord GOD has sworn by his holiness, that, see, the days shall come on you, that he will take you away with hooks, and your posterity with fishhooks.
3 Un jūs iziesiet caur mūru plaisām, ikviena taisni projām, un tapsiet nomestas pret Armonu, saka Tas Kungs.
And you shall go out at the breaches, every cow at that which is before her; and you shall cast them into the palace, says the LORD.
4 Ejat uz Bēteli un grēkojiet! (Ejat) uz Gilgalu un vairojiet pārkāpšanu! Un nesiet savus upurus rītos, savas desmitās(tiesas) ik trešo dienu,
Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply transgression; and bring your sacrifices every morning, and your tithes after three years:
5 Un kvēpinājiet pateicības upurus no raudzēta, un izsauciet labprātības upurus, liekat to dzirdēt! Jo tā tas jums patīk, Israēla bērni, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and proclaim and publish the free offerings: for this likes you, O you children of Israel, says the Lord GOD.
6 Tāpēc es arīdzan jūsu zobiem esmu devis mieru visās jūsu pilsētās un maizes trūkumu visās jūsu vietās; tomēr jūs pie Manis neesat atgriezušies, saka Tas Kungs.
And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places: yet have you not returned to me, says the LORD.
7 Un arī lietu Es jums esmu aizturējis, kad vēl trīs mēneši bija līdz pļaujamam laikam, un esmu licis līt pār vienu pilsētu, bet pār otru ne, viens zemes gabals aplija, bet otrs gabals sakalta, kur lietus nelija.
And also I have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city: one piece was rained on, and the piece whereupon it rained not withered.
8 Un divas, trīs pilsētas vilkās uz vienu pilsētu, ūdeni dzert, bet nedabūja nodzerties; taču jūs pie Manis neesat atgriezušies, saka Tas Kungs.
So two or three cities wandered to one city, to drink water; but they were not satisfied: yet have you not returned to me, says the LORD.
9 Es jūs esmu sitis ar bulu un ar rūsu, un siseņi ēda visu, kas aug jūsu dārzos un jūsu vīna dārzos un uz jūsu vīģes kokiem un eļļas kokiem, taču jūs pie Manis neesat atgriezušies, saka Tas Kungs.
I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your gardens and your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased, the palmerworm devoured them: yet have you not returned to me, says the LORD.
10 Es esmu sūtījis mēri jūsu vidū, kā Ēģiptes zemē, Es nokāvu jūsu jaunekļus caur zobenu un liku jūsu zirgus aizvest, un jūsu karaspēka smaržai Es liku uzkāpt jūsu nāsīs; taču jūs pie Manis neesat atgriezušies, saka Tas Kungs.
I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner of Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your horses; and I have made the stink of your camps to come up to your nostrils: yet have you not returned to me, says the LORD.
11 Es esmu sūtījis postu jūsu vidū, kā Dievs postījis Sodomu un Gomoru un jūs bijāt kā pagale izrauta no uguns, taču jūs neesat atgriezušies pie Manis, saka Tas Kungs.
I have overthrown some of you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have you not returned to me, says the LORD.
12 Tādēļ Es tev tā darīšu, Israēl! Kad Es tev tā gribu darīt, nu tad sataisies, Israēl, savam Dievam pretim!
Therefore thus will I do to you, O Israel: and because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, O Israel.
13 Jo redzi, kas taisa kalnus, rada vēju un cilvēkam dara zināmu, kas viņa domās, kas par rīta gaismu dara tumsu un staigā pār zemes augstumiem, Kungs Dievs Cebaot ir Viņa vārds.
For, see, he that forms the mountains, and creates the wind, and declares to man what is his thought, that makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth, The LORD, The God of hosts, is his name.
