Amosa 6
1 Lozan’ ireo miadana ao Ziona sy ireo matokitoky foana ao an-tendrombohitr’ i Samaria, dia ireo malaza eo amin’ ny firenena malaza indrindra sady hatonin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely.
Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure in the hill country of Samaria, the notable men of the best of the nations, to whom the house of Israel comes for help!
2 Mankanesa any Kalne ianareo, ka mijere, dia mandrosoa ihany ho any Hamata lehibe; Ary midìna ho any Gatan’ ny Filistina; Tsara noho ireo fanjakana ireo va izy? Sa lehibe noho ny tanin’ ireo va ny taninareo?
Your leaders say, “Go to Kalneh and look; from there go to Hamath, the great city; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than your two kingdoms? Is their border larger than your border?”
3 Hianareo izay mihevitra ny andro mampahory ho mbola lavitra sy mampanakaiky ny seza fandozana,
Woe to those who put off the day of disaster and make the throne of violence come near.
4 Dia ireo izay mandrimandry ao amin’ ny farafara ivoriny sy mitsilailay eo amin’ ny fandriandriany ary homana ny zanak’ ondry avy amin’ ny andian’ ny ondry sy ny zanak’ omby avy ao am-pahitra,
They lie on beds of ivory and lounge on their couches. They eat lambs from the flock and calves from the stall.
5 Dia ireo izay mivovo foana manaraka ny feon-dokanga ary mamorona zava-maneno toy ny nataon’ i Davida,
They sing foolish songs to the music of the harp; they improvise on instruments as David did.
6 Dia ireo izay misotro divay amin’ ny lovia famafazana sady mihosotra diloilo tsara Indrindra, nefa tsy onena ny fahasimban’ i Josefa.
They drink wine from bowls and anoint themselves with the finest oils, but they do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph.
7 Koa amin’ izao dia ho voalohany amin’ izay hobaboina ireo, ary hatsahatro ny hobin’ izay mitsilailay foana.
So they will now go into exile with the first exiles, and the feasts of those who lounge about will pass away.
8 Jehovah Tompo dia efa nianiana tamin’ ny tenany, hoy Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro: Fahavetavetana eo anatrehako ny reharehan’ i Jakoba, ary halako ny tranobeny; Koa dia hatolotro ny tanàna mbamin’ izay rehetra ao anatiny.
“I, the Lord Yahweh, have sworn by myself —this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts, I detest the pride of Jacob; I hate his fortresses. Therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.”
9 Ary raha hisy folo lahy sisa ao an-trano iray, dia samy ho faty ireo.
It will come about that if there are ten men left in one house, they will all die.
10 Ary ny havan’ izay maty, na izay handevina azy, dia hambeta azy ka hitondra ny faty hiala ao an-trano, dia hiteny amin’ izay ao anaty trano hoe: Mbola misy ihany va ato aminao? Ary raha hoy izy: Tapitra! Dia hovaliana hoe: Mangìna re! fa tsy tokony hotonenina ny anaran’ i Jehovah.
When a man's relative comes to take their bodies up—the one who is to cremate them after bringing the corpses out of the house—if he says to the person in the house, “Is there anyone with you?” What if that person says, “No.” Then he will say, “Be quiet, for we must not mention Yahweh's name.”
11 Fa, indro, Jehovah no mandidy, ka horavana ny trano lehibe, ary hotresatresahina ny trano madinika.
For, look, Yahweh will give a command, and the big house will be smashed to pieces, and the little house to bits.
12 Mihazakazaka eny amin’ ny sola-bato va ny soavaly. Misy olona mampihosy omby va eny, no efa navadikareo ho zava-mangidy ny rariny, ary ny vokatry ny fahamarinana ho zava-mahafaty?
Do horses run on the rocky cliffs? Does one plow there with oxen? Yet you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness.
13 Dia ianareo izay mifaly amin’ ny zava-poana ka manao hoe: Moa tsy ny herinay va no ahazoanay tandroka ho anay?
You who rejoice over Lo Debar, who say, “Have we not taken Karnaim by our own strength?”
14 Fa, indro, hanangana firenena hamely anareo Aho, ry taranak’ Isiraely, hoy Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, dia hampahory anareo hatrany akaikin’ i Hamata izy ka hatramin’ ny lohasahan-driaka any amin’ ny tani-hay.
“But look, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel—this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts. They will afflict you from Lebo Hamath to the brook of the Arabah.”
