Amosa 7

1 Zao ty natoro’ Iehovà, Talè, ahy, Ingo, namboare’e fifamorohotam-balala te nitovoañe i ampemba afaray, le hehe t’ie nandimbe ty fitataha’ i mpanjakay i tinogy an-doha-taoñey.

Thus Lord YHWH has showed me, and behold, He is forming locusts at the beginning of the ascending of the latter growth, and behold, the latter growth [is] after the mowings of the king [[or King Gog]];

2 Aa naho hene nabotse’ iareo ze ahetse amy taney eo, le hoe ty asako tama’e, Ry Iehovà, Talè, ehe apoho; akore ty hahafijohaña’ Iakobe? Ie kede.

and it has come to pass, when it has finished to consume the herb of the land, that I say, “Lord YHWH, please forgive, How does Jacob arise—for he [is] small?”

3 Aa le napo’ Iehovà; Tsy hanoeñe izay, hoe t’Iehovà.

YHWH has relented of this, “It will not be,” said YHWH.

4 Ie añe le inao ka ty naboa’ Iehovà, Talè: Heheke te kinanji’ Iehovà, Talè ty zaka añ’afo; finorototo’e i laleke beiy vaho namototse nampigodrañe i taney.

Thus has Lord YHWH showed me, and behold, Lord YHWH is calling to contend by the fire, and it consumes the great deep, indeed, it has consumed the portion, and I say,

5 Aa le hoe iraho, Ry Iehovà, Talè, Aziro! iambaneako; aia ty hijohaña’ Iakobe, ie kede?

“Lord YHWH, please cease, How does Jacob arise—for he [is] small?”

6 Aa le nado’ Iehovà: Tsy hanoeñe ka izay, hoe t’Iehovà, Talè.

YHWH has relented of this, “It also will not be,” said Lord YHWH.

7 Zao ka ty natoro’e ahy, ingo te nijohañe ambone kijoly nanoeñe an-tàlin-kahity eo t’i Talè, reketse ty talin-kahity am-pità’e ao.

Thus has He showed me, and behold, the Lord is standing by a wall [made according to] a plumb-line, and in His hand a plumb-line;

8 Le hoe t’Iehovà amako, O Amose, ino o isa’oo? Le hoe iraho, Talin-kahity. Aa hoe t’i Talè; Hehe, hapoko añivo’ ondatiko Israeleo ty talin-kahitiko; tsy hiheveako ka.

and YHWH says to me, “What are you seeing, Amos?” And I say, “A plumb-line”; and the Lord says: “Behold, I am setting a plumb-line in the midst of My people Israel, I no longer pass over to it.

9 Ho koake o toets’ abo’ Ietsakeo, naho hanoeñe bijon-draha o toe’ Israele miambakeo; vaho hitroatse amy anjomba’ Ieroboame iraho reketse fibara.

And high places of Isaac have been desolated, And sanctuaries of Israel are dried up, And I have risen against the house of Jeroboam with a sword.”

10 Nampañitrik’ am’ Ieroboame mpanjaka’ Israele t’i Amatsià mpisoro’ i Betele, nanao ty hoe, Nikinia azo t’i Amose añ’ anjomba’ Israele ao; tsy leo’ o taneo ze fonga ­saontsi’e.

And Amaziah priest of Beth-El sends to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words,

11 Fa hoe ty asa’ i Amose, Inao, hampihomahem-pibara t’Ieroboame, vaho tsy mete tsy hasese mb’am-pandrohizañ’ añe boak’ an-tane’e ao t’Israele.

for thus said Amos: Jeroboam dies by sword, And Israel certainly removes from off its land.”

12 Aa le hoe t’i Amatsià amy Amose, Ry mpioniñeo, akia, mitribaña an-day mb’an-tane’ Iehoda mb’eo, le kamao añe o mahakama’oo, vaho añe ty itokia’o,

And Amaziah says to Amos, “Seer, go, flee to the land of Judah for yourself, and eat bread there, and there you prophesy;

13 fa ko mitoky ka e Betele ao, amy t’ie ty toe-masi’ i mpanjakay vaho rova-bei’ ty fifeheañe toy.

and no longer prophesy [at] Beth-El anymore, for it [is] the king’s sanctuary, and it [is] the royal house.”

14 Aa le hoe ty natoi’ i Amose amy Amatsià, Izaho tsy mpitoky, tsy anam-pitoky, fa mpihare naho mpañalahala sakoa;

And Amos answers and says to Amaziah, “I [am] no prophet, nor [am] I a prophet’s son, but I [am] a herdsman, and a cultivator of sycamores,

15 vaho rinambe’ Iehovà ami’ty fañarahañe i lia-raikey, le hoe t’Iehovà amako, Akia, mitokia am’ ondatiko Israeleo.

and YHWH takes me from after the flock, and YHWH says to me, Go, prophesy to My people Israel.

16 Janjiño arè ty tsara’ Iehovà: Hoe ty asa’o: Ko mitoky am’ Israele vaho ko mampipoke saontsy amy anjomba’ Ietsakey.

And now, hear a word of YHWH: You are saying, Do not prophesy against Israel, nor drop [anything] against the house of Isaac,

17 Aa le hoe ty nitsarà’ Iehovà; Ho tsimirira an-drova ao ty vali’o, naho hampikorovohem-pibara o ana-dahi’oo naho o anak-ampela’oo, naho ho zarazaraeñe ty tane’o; naho hikoromak’ an-tane tiva eo irehe; toe hasese mb’am-pandrohizañ’ añe boak’an-tane’e ao t’Israele.

therefore, thus said YHWH: Your wife goes whoring in the city, And your sons and your daughters fall by sword, And your land is apportioned by line, And you die on an unclean land, And Israel certainly removes from off its land.”
