Amosa 1
1 Šie ir Amosa, Tekoas avju gana, vārdi, ko viņš ir redzējis pār Israēli Uzijas, Jūda ķēniņa, dienās, un Jerobeama, Jehoas dēla, Israēla ķēniņa, dienās, divus gadus priekš tās zemes trīcēšanas.
This is the message that [Yahweh] gave to [me], Amos. I am a (shepherd/man who takes care of sheep). I am from [near] Tekoa [town south of Jerusalem]. I received this message about Israel in a vision two years before the [big] earthquake. It was when Uzziah was the king of Judah, and Jeroboam, the son of [King] Jehoash, was the king of Israel.
2 Un viņš sacīja: Tas Kungs rūc no Ciānas un paceļ Savu balsi no Jeruzālemes, ka ganības bēdājās, un Karmeļa galva nokalst.
This is what Yahweh said: “I will roar [like a lion] [MET]; when I speak from Zion [Hill in] Jerusalem [DOU], my voice will [resemble the sound of] thunder. [When that happens], the pastures where you shepherds [take care of] your sheep will dry up, and [the grass] on top of Carmel [Mountain] will (wither/become brown) [because I will cause that no rain will fall].”
3 Tā saka Tas Kungs: treju vai četru Damaskus pārkāpumu dēļ - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tāpēc ka tie Gileādu kūluši ar asiem dzelzs spriguļiem,
This is [also] what Yahweh said [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Damascus, [the capital of Syria, ] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not [change my mind about punishing them] [MTY], because [the cruel things that they did to the people of the] Gilead [region] [were like] [MET] people threshing grain using sledges [that have (iron teeth/sharp iron nails) in them].
4 Tāpēc Es sūtīšu uguni Azaēļa namā, tas aprīs BenHadada skaistās pilis.
I will cause a fire to burn the palace [that King] Hazael [built and lived in], the fortress where [his son King] Ben-Hadad [also] lived.
5 Un Es salauzīšu Damaskus aizšaujamo un izdeldēšu tos iedzīvotājus no Avenas ielejas un to, kas scepteri tur no BetEdenas; un Sīrijas ļaudis taps aizvesti uz Ķiru, saka Tas Kungs.
I will cause the gates of Damascus to be broken [down]; I will get rid of the king who rules in Aven Valley and the one who rules in Beth Eden. And the people of Syria will be captured and taken to the Kir [region where they originally lived].”
6 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Gacas pārkāpumu dēļ, - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tādēļ ka tie (Manus ļaudis) lielā pulkā aizveduši, tos nodot Edomam,
Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of the cities in Philistia]: [I will punish the people of] Gaza [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they captured large groups of people and took them to Edom and sold them to become the slaves of [the people of] Edom.
7 Tādēļ Es sūtīšu uguni Gacas mūros, tas aprīs viņas skaistos namus.
I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Gaza and [also] destroy its fortresses.
8 Un Es izdeldēšu tos iedzīvotājus no Ašdodas, un, kas scepteri tur, no Askalonas, un Es griezīšu Savu roku pret Ekronu, ka bojā ies viss Fīlistu atlikums, saka Tas Kungs Dievs.
I will get rid of the king of Ashdod [city] and the king who rules [MTY] in Ashkelon [city]. I will [also] strike/punish [the people of] Ekron [city], and [all] the people of Philistia who are still alive will be killed.”
9 Tā saka Tas Kungs: treju vai četru Tirus pārkāpumu dēļ, - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tāpēc ka tie Manus ļaudis lielā pulkā nodevuši Edomam un nav pieminējuši brāļu derību,
Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “[I will punish the people of] Tyre [city] because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they [also] captured large groups of our people and took them to Edom, disregarding the treaty of friendship that they had made [with your rulers].
10 Tāpēc Es sūtīšu uguni Tirus mūros, un tas aprīs viņa skaistos namus.
So I will cause a fire to completely burn the walls of Tyre and [also] destroy its fortresses.”
11 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Edoma pārkāpumu dēļ, - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tāpēc ka viņš savu brāli ar zobenu vajājis, un savu mīlestību iznīcinājis un savā bardzībā arvien plosās un patur mūžam savas dusmas,
Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Edom because of the many sins that they have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they pursued the people [of Israel], who descended from Esau’s [brother Jacob, and killed them] with swords; they did not act mercifully toward them at all. They were extremely angry [with the people of Israel], and they continued to be angry [with them].
12 Tāpēc Es sūtīšu uguni Temanā, tas aprīs Bocras skaistos namus.
I will cause a fire to burn Teman [district in Edom] and completely burn the fortresses of Bozrah, [the biggest city in Edom].”
13 Tā saka Tas Kungs: triju vai četru Amona bērnu pārkāpumu dēļ - to Es nenovērsīšu, - tāpēc ka tie Gileādas grūtās sievas uzšķērduši savas robežas izplest,
Yahweh [also] said this [to me]: “I will punish [the people of] Ammon because of the many sins that [they] have committed; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because [their soldiers even] ripped open [the bellies of] pregnant women [when their army attacked] the Gilead [region] to gain more territory.
14 Tāpēc Es iededzināšu uguni Rabas mūros, tas aprīs viņas skaistos namus, kara dienas kliegšanā un vētras dienas aukā.
I will cause a fire to [completely] burn the walls around Rabbah [city] and completely burn its fortresses. During that battle, [their enemies] will shout loudly and the fighting will be [like] [MET] a fierce/raging wind/storm.
15 Un viņu ķēniņš ies cietumā ar saviem lielkungiem, saka Tas Kungs.
[After the battle], the king [of Ammon] and his officials will be (exiled/forced to go to another country).”
