Amosa 7

1 Tas Kungs Dievs man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Viņš rādīja siseņus, kad atāls sāka augt, un redzi, atāls bija audzis pēc ķēniņa pļaušanas.

This is what the Lord God let me see: and I saw that, when the growth of the late grass was starting, he made locusts; it was the late growth after the king's cutting was done.

2 Un kad tie zāli zemes virsū visnotaļ bija aprijuši, tad es sacīju: Kungs Dievs, piedod jel! Kā Jēkabs varēs pastāvēt, jo viņš ir mazs.

And it came about that after they had taken all the grass of the land, I said, O Lord God, have mercy: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small.

3 Tad Tam Kungam bija žēl; tas nenotiks, sacīja Tas Kungs. -

The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, It will not be.

4 Atkal Tas Kungs Dievs man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Tas Kungs Dievs sauca un gribēja ar uguni sodīt, un tas jau norija to lielo jūru un aprija arī vienu zemes gabalu.

This is what the Lord let me see: and I saw that the Lord God sent for a great fire to be the instrument of his punishment; and, after burning up the great deep, it was about to put an end to the Lord's heritage.

5 Tad es sacīju: Kungs Dievs, mitējies jel! Kā Jēkabs varēs pastāvēt, jo viņš ir mazs.

Then said I, O Lord God, let there be an end: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small.

6 Tad tas Tam Kungam bija žēl; ir tas nenotiks, - sacīja Tas Kungs Dievs.

The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, And this will not be.

7 Atkal viņš man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Tas Kungs stāvēja uz stāva mūra, un lote(svina svērtenis) bija Viņa rokā.

This is what he let me see: and I saw the Lord stationed by a wall made straight by a weighted line, and he had a weighted line in his hand.

8 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: ko tu redzi, Amos? Tad es sacīju: loti. Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: redzi, Es pielikšu loti vidū Maniem Israēla ļaudīm, un viņus vairs netaupīšu;

And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin:

9 Bet Īzaka elku kalni taps iznīcināti, un Israēla svētās vietas taps nopostītas, un Es celšos pret Jerobeama namu ar zobenu.

And the high places of Isaac will be unpeopled, and the holy places of Israel will be made waste; and I will come up against the family of Jeroboam with the sword.

10 Tad Amacīja, Bēteles priesteris, sūtīja pie Jerobeama, Israēla ķēniņa, un sacīja: Amos ceļ dumpi pret tevi Israēla nama vidū, zeme nevar panest visus viņa vārdus.

Then Amaziah, the priest of Beth-el, sent to Jeroboam, king of Israel, saying, Amos has made designs against you among the people of Israel: the land is troubled by his words.

11 Jo tā saka Amos: Jerobeams nomirs caur zobenu, un Israēls vešus no savas zemes taps aizvests.

For Amos has said, Jeroboam will be put to the sword, and Israel will certainly be taken away as a prisoner out of his land.

12 Un Amacīja sacīja uz Amosu: tu redzētāj, ej, bēdz uz Jūda zemi, un ēd tur savu maizi,

And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go in flight into the land of Judah, and there get your living by working as a prophet:

13 Un sludini tur, bet Bētelē tev joprojām vairs nebūs sludināt, jo te ir ķēniņa svētā vieta, un te ir valsts pilsēta.

But be a prophet no longer at Beth-el: for it is the holy place of the king, and the king's house.

14 Tad Amos atbildēja un sacīja uz Amacīju: es neesmu pravietis nedz pravieša dēls, bet es esmu lopu gans un lasu meža vīģes;

Then Amos in answer said to Amaziah, I am no prophet, or one of the sons of the prophets; I am a herdman and one who takes care of sycamore-trees:

15 Bet Tas Kungs mani ņēmis no ganāmā pulka, un Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: ej, sludini Maniem Israēla ļaudīm.

And the Lord took me from the flock, and the Lord said to me, Go, be a prophet to my people Israel.

16 Nu tad, klausi Tā Kunga vārdu! Tu saki: nesludini pret Israēli un nemāci pret Īzaka namu.

Now then, give ear to the word of the Lord: You say, Be no prophet to Israel, and say not a word against the people of Isaac.

17 Tādēļ, tā saka Tas Kungs: tava sieva pilsētā taps par mauku, un tavi dēli un tavas meitas kritīs caur zobenu, un tava zeme taps mērota un izdalīta, un tu mirsi nešķīstā zemē, un Israēls vešus no savas zemes taps aizvests.

So this is what the Lord has said: Your wife will be a loose woman in the town, and your sons and your daughters will be put to the sword, and your land will be cut up into parts by a line; and you yourself will come to your end in an unclean land, and Israel will certainly be taken away a prisoner out of his land.
