Amosa 6
1 Hankàñe ry mierañerañe e Tsione ao, naho o mipalitse ami’ty vohi’ i Someroneo, o roandriam-pifeheañe valoha’e iatoa’ ty anjomba’ Israeleo!
How disastrous it will be for you who have an easy life in Zion, and you who feel secure living on Mount Samaria—you who are the most famous men in all of Israel to whom people come for help!
2 Mionjona mb’e Kalnè mb’eo le isao, akia henane zay mb’e Kamate jabajabay; vaho mizotsoa mb’e Gate nte-Pilistiy mb’eo. Ho soa te amy fifeheañe retiañe hao iereo? mandikoatse ty efe-tane’ areo hao ty a iareo?
But go to Calneh, and see what took place there. Then go on to the great city of Hamath, and down to the Philistine city of Gath. Were they better kingdoms than yours? Did they have more territory than you?
3 Ry mampihànkañe i andron-kankàñey vaho mampitotoke i fiambesan-karotsahañey;
You put out of your minds any thought of coming disaster, yet you are bringing closer the time when violence reigns.
4 o mitsalalampatse am-pandreañe nihamineñe hafotia-nife naho mihitsy an-kidori’ iareo, vaho mikama anak’añondry boak’ amy lia-raikey naho sarake boak’ añivon-jolokeo;
How disastrous it will be for you people who lie on beds decorated with ivory and lounge on couches, eating lamb from your flocks and fattened calves from the stall.
5 o mititike marovany arahem-peo vaho mamoroñe raham-pititihañe, manahake i Davideo;
You make up songs accompanied by the harp, thinking you're great composers like David.
6 o minon-divay an-tsini-hara naho mihosotse menake soao, fe tsy iroveta’e ty hasotria’ Iosefe.
You drink wine by the bowlful, and anoint yourselves with the finest oils, but you do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph's descendants.
7 ie amy zao, hasese mb’an-drohy mb’eo ho mpiaolom-pirohy, vaho hafahañe añe ty sabadida’ o mpihity an-telo-antarao.
So you will be at the head of those led away into exile; the feasting and lazing around will be over.
8 Fa nifanta amam-bata’e t’Iehovà, Talè; le hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, Hejeko ty fiebotsebora’ Iakobe, naho mampangorý ahy o anjomba’eo: aa le hatoloko añe i rovay rekets’ o ama’e iabio.
The Lord God has sworn an oath on his own life. This is what the Lord God of power declares: I detest Jacob's arrogance and I hate his fortresses; I will hand over this city and all in it to the enemy.
9 Ie henane zay, naho lahilahy folo ty sisa añ’anjomba raike, fonga hihomake.
If there are ten people in a house, they will die.
10 Ho rambese’ i rahalahin-drae’e kiraikiraike iereo hañakara’e añ’anjomba’e ao hañoroa’e, le ty hoe ty hanoe’e amy añ’anjomba aoy, Mbe ama’e hao irehe? le ty hoe ty hatoi’ ty ao, Aiy! vaho hoe ka i raikey. Mianjiña, fa tsy volañeñe ty tahina’ Iehovà.
And when a relative comes to take away the bodies from the house, he will ask someone inside “Is there anyone else with you?” The person will reply, “No...” Then the other will say, “Quiet! Don't even mention the Lord's name.”
11 Inao fa handily t’Iehovà te ho tseratseraheñe o anjombao vaho ho hotohotoeñe o kibohotseo.
Watch out! When the Lord gives the command, large houses will be reduced to rubble, and small houses smashed to pieces.
12 Hilay ambatovato hao o soavalao? hitari-dasarý eo reketse katràka hao t’indaty? Mañino te nafote’ areo ho voreke ty havañonañe, vaho ho vahon-tsoy ty vokan-kavantañañe?
Can horses gallop over rocks? Can oxen plow the sea? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of doing good into bitterness!
13 Ry mpirebek’ amo raha tsy vente’eo, manao ty hoe: Tsy ty haozara’ay avao hao ty nahavontititse tsifa?
You joyfully celebrate your conquest of Lodebar, and say “Didn't we in our own strength capture Karnaim?”
14 Inao arè, ry anjomba’ Israeleo te hatroako haname anahareo ty fifeheañe, hoe t’Iehovà Andrianañahare’ i màroy, le ho silofe’ iereo boak’ am-piziliha’ i Kamate eo pak’ an-tsaka’ Arabà añe.
Watch out, people of Israel! I am going to send an enemy nation to attack you, says the Lord God of power, and they will oppress you from the Pass of Hamath to the Arabah Valley.
