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.
Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and behold, it was the latter growth after the king’s harvest.
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.
When they finished eating the grass of the land, then I said, “Lord Yahweh, forgive, I beg you! How could Jacob stand? For he is small.”
3 Tad Tam Kungam bija žēl; tas nenotiks, sacīja Tas Kungs. -
Yahweh relented concerning this. “It shall not be,” says Yahweh.
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.
Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: behold, the Lord Yahweh called for judgment by fire; and it dried up the great deep, and would have devoured the land.
5 Tad es sacīju: Kungs Dievs, mitējies jel! Kā Jēkabs varēs pastāvēt, jo viņš ir mazs.
Then I said, “Lord Yahweh, stop, I beg you! How could Jacob stand? For he is small.”
6 Tad tas Tam Kungam bija žēl; ir tas nenotiks, - sacīja Tas Kungs Dievs.
Yahweh relented concerning this. “This also shall not be,” says the Lord Yahweh.
7 Atkal viņš man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Tas Kungs stāvēja uz stāva mūra, un lote(svina svērtenis) bija Viņa rokā.
Thus he showed me: behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb line, with a plumb 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;
Yahweh said to me, “Amos, what do you see?” I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said, “Behold, I will set a plumb line in the middle of my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
9 Bet Īzaka elku kalni taps iznīcināti, un Israēla svētās vietas taps nopostītas, un Es celšos pret Jerobeama namu ar zobenu.
The high places of Isaac will be desolate, the sanctuaries of Israel will be laid waste; and I will rise against the house 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 Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words.
11 Jo tā saka Amos: Jerobeams nomirs caur zobenu, un Israēls vešus no savas zemes taps aizvests.
For Amos says, ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.’”
12 Un Amacīja sacīja uz Amosu: tu redzētāj, ej, bēdz uz Jūda zemi, un ēd tur savu maizi,
Amaziah also said to Amos, “You seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there,
13 Un sludini tur, bet Bētelē tev joprojām vairs nebūs sludināt, jo te ir ķēniņa svētā vieta, un te ir valsts pilsēta.
but don’t prophesy again any more at Bethel; for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a royal 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 answered Amaziah, “I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son, but I was a herdsman, and a farmer of sycamore figs;
15 Bet Tas Kungs mani ņēmis no ganāmā pulka, un Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: ej, sludini Maniem Israēla ļaudīm.
and Yahweh took me from following the flock, and Yahweh said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’
16 Nu tad, klausi Tā Kunga vārdu! Tu saki: nesludini pret Israēli un nemāci pret Īzaka namu.
Now therefore listen to Yahweh’s word: ‘You say, Don’t prophesy against Israel, and don’t preach against the house 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.
Therefore Yahweh says: ‘Your wife shall be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you yourself shall die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.’”
