Amosa 1
1 Ny tenin’ i Amosa, izay isan’ ny mpiandry ondry tao Tekoa, dia izay hitany ny amin’ ny Isiraely tamin’ ny andro nanjakan’ i Ozia, mpanjakan’ ny Joda, sy tamin’ ny andro nanjakan’ i Jeroboama, zanak’ i Joasy, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, roa taona talohan’ ny horohorontany.
The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 Ary hoy izy: Jehovah mierona ao Ziona ary mampikotroka any Jerosalema; Ny saha fiandrasana ondry dia mitomany ary maina ny tampon’ i Karmela.
He said: "Jehovah will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds will mourn, and the top of Carmel will wither."
3 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny fahotana telon’ i Damaskosy, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria kodia vy no nivelezany an’ i Gileada;
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Damascus, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have threshed the pregnant women of Gilead with threshing instruments of iron;
4 Fa haterako afo ny tranon’ i Hazaela, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Beni-hadada izany.
but I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it will devour the palaces of Ben Hadad.
5 Hotorotoroiko koa ny hidin’ i Damaskosy, ary hofoanako tsy hisy mponina ny lohasahan’ i Avena, ary Bet-edena tsy hisy hitana tehina fanapahana; Ary ny vahoakan’ i Syria dia ho lasan-ko babo any Kira, hoy Jehovah.
I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the Valley of Wickedness, and him who holds the scepter from Beth Eden; and the people of Aram shall go into captivity to Kir," says Jehovah.
6 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Noho ny fahotana telon’ i Gaza, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria lasany ho babo avika ny olona hatolony ho any Edoma;
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Gaza, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they carried away captive the whole community, to deliver them up to Edom;
7 Fa haterako afo ny mandan’ i Gaza, ka handevona ny tranobeny izany;
but I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it will devour its palaces.
8 Ary hofoanako Asdoda tsy hisy mponina, ary Askelona tsy hisy hitana tehina fanapahana; Dia haveriko ny tanako hamely an’ i Ekrona, ka ho faty izay sisa amin’ ny Filistina, hoy Jehovah Tompo
I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him who holds the scepter from Ashkelon; and I will turn my hand against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines will perish," says Jehovah.
9 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: noho ny fahotana telon’ i Tyro, eny efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria natolony ho any Edoma ny babo rehetra, ary tsy notsarovany ny fanekem-pirahalahiana;
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Tyre, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they delivered up the whole community to Edom, and did not remember the brotherly covenant;
10 Fa haterako afo ny mandan’ i Tyro, ka handevona ny tranobeny izany
but I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it will devour its palaces."
11 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: noho ny fahotana telon’ i Edoma, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria nanenjika ny rahalahiny tamin’ ny sabatra izy, ka nofoanany ny fiantrany, ny fahatezerany dia namiravira mandrakariva, ary ny fahavinirany notehiriziny lalandava;
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of Edom, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity, and his anger raged continually, and he kept his wrath forever;
12 Fa haterako afo ao Temana, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Bozra izany
but I will send a fire on Teman, and it will devour the palaces of Bozrah."
13 Izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: noho ny fahotana telon’ ny taranak’ i Amona, eny, efatra aza, dia tsy havelako izy, satria notatahany izay bevohoka tao Gileada, hanitarany ny fari-taniny;
Thus says Jehovah: "For three transgressions of the people of Ammon, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because they have ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead, that they may enlarge their border.
14 Fa hampirehitra afo ao amin’ ny mandan’ i Raba Aho, ka handevona ny tranobeny izany, sady hisy akora amin’ ny andro iadiana sy rivo-mahery amin’ ny andron’ ny tadio;
But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it will devour its palaces, with shouting in the day of battle, with a storm in the day of the whirlwind;
15 Dia ho lasan-ko babo ny mpanjakany mbamin’ ireo mpanapaka rehetra ao aminy, hoy Jehovah.
and their king will go into captivity, he and his officials together," says Jehovah.
