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.
These are the words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders of Tekoa—what he saw concerning Israel two years before the earthquake, in the days when Uzziah was king of Judah and Jeroboam son of Jehoash was king of Israel.
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: “The LORD roars from Zion and raises His voice from Jerusalem; the pastures of the shepherds mourn, and the summit of Carmel withers.”
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;
This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Damascus, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they threshed Gilead with sledges of iron.
4 Fa haterako afo ny tranon’ i Hazaela, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Beni-hadada izany.
So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael to consume the citadels 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 down the gates of Damascus; I will cut off the ruler of the Valley of Aven and the one who wields the scepter in Beth-eden. The people of Aram will be exiled to Kir,”
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;
This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Gaza, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they exiled a whole population, delivering them up to Edom.
7 Fa haterako afo ny mandan’ i Gaza, ka handevona ny tranobeny izany;
So I will send fire upon the walls of Gaza, to consume its citadels.
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 ruler of Ashdod and the one who wields the scepter in Ashkelon. I will turn My hand against Ekron, and the remnant of the Philistines will perish,”
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;
This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Tyre, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they delivered up a whole congregation of exiles to Edom and broke a covenant of brotherhood.
10 Fa haterako afo ny mandan’ i Tyro, ka handevona ny tranobeny izany
So I will send fire upon the walls of Tyre to consume its citadels.”
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;
This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of Edom, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because he pursued his brother with the sword and stifled all compassion; his anger raged continually, and his fury flamed incessantly.
12 Fa haterako afo ao Temana, ka handevona ny tranoben’ i Bozra izany
So I will send fire upon Teman to consume the citadels 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;
This is what the LORD says: “For three transgressions of the Ammonites, even four, I will not revoke My judgment, because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead in order to enlarge their territory.
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;
So I will kindle a fire in the walls of Rabbah to consume its citadels amid war cries on the day of battle and a violent wind on the day of tempest.
15 Dia ho lasan-ko babo ny mpanjakany mbamin’ ireo mpanapaka rehetra ao aminy, hoy Jehovah.
Their king will go into exile — he and his princes together,”
