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.
Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their husbands, "Bring us something to 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,
YHWH has sworn by his holiness: "Look, the days shall come on you that they will take you away with hooks, and the last of you with fish hooks.
3 Un jūs iziesiet caur mūru plaisām, ikviena taisni projām, un tapsiet nomestas pret Armonu, saka Tas Kungs.
You will go out at the breaks in the wall, everyone straight before her; and you will cast yourselves into Harmon," says YHWH.
4 Ejat uz Bēteli un grēkojiet! (Ejat) uz Gilgalu un vairojiet pārkāpšanu! Un nesiet savus upurus rītos, savas desmitās(tiesas) ik trešo dienu,
"Go to Bethel, and sin; to Gilgal, and sin more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three days,
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.
offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them: for this pleases you, you children of Israel," says YHWH.
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.
"I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in every town; yet you haven't returned to me," says YHWH.
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.
"I also 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 place was rained on, and the piece where it did not rain 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 staggered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied: yet you haven't returned to me," says YHWH.
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 struck you with blight and mildew many times in your gardens and your vineyards; and your fig trees and your olive trees have the swarming locust devoured: yet you haven't returned to me," says YHWH.
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 sent plagues among you like I did Egypt. I have slain your young men with the sword, and have carried away your horses; and I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you haven't returned to me," says YHWH.
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 when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; yet you haven't returned to me," says YHWH.
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, Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, 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, look, he who forms the mountains, and creates the wind, and declares to man what is his thought; who makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth: YHWH, the God of hosts, is his name."
