आमोस 7

1 परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मलाई यो कुरा देखाउनुभयो । हेर, बसन्‍त ऋतुको बाली मौलाउनै लाग्‍दा, उहाँले सलहको बथान तयार गर्नुभयो, अनि हेर, योचाहिं राजाको कटनी पछिको बाली थियो ।

This is what the Lord God let me see: and I saw that, when the growth of the late grass was starting, he made locusts; it was the late growth after the king's cutting was done.

2 जब तिनीहरूले भूमिको बालीनाली खाएर सके, अनि त्‍यसपछि मैले भनें, “परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, कृपया क्षमा गर्नुहोस् । याकूब कसरी बाँच्‍नेछ? किनकि त्यो त धेरै सानो छ ।”

And it came about that after they had taken all the grass of the land, I said, O Lord God, have mercy: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small.

3 परमप्रभु यस विषयमा नरम हुनुभयो । उहाँले भन्‍नुभयो, “यस्तो हुनेछैन ।”

The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, It will not be.

4 अनि परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले मलाई यस्तो देखाउनुभयोः हेर, परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले न्याय गर्नलाई आगो बोलाउनुभयो । त्यसले पृथ्वीमुनिको गहिरो विशाल पानीलाई सुकायो र त्यसले जमिनलाई पनि भष्‍म पार्न सक्थ्यो ।

This is what the Lord let me see: and I saw that the Lord God sent for a great fire to be the instrument of his punishment; and, after burning up the great deep, it was about to put an end to the Lord's heritage.

5 तर मैले भनें, “परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वर, कृपया रोक्‍नुहोस् । याकूब कसरी बाँच्‍नेछ? किनकि त्यो त धेरै सानो छ ।”

Then said I, O Lord God, let there be an end: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small.

6 परमप्रभु यस विषयमा नरम हुनुभयो । परमप्रभु परमेश्‍वरले भन्‍नुभयो, “यो पनि हुनेछैन ।”

The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, And this will not be.

7 उहाँले मलाई यो कुरा देखाउनुभयोः हेर, परमप्रभु हातमा साहुल लिएर एउटा पर्खालको छेउमा उभिनुभयो ।

This is what he let me see: and I saw the Lord stationed by a wall made straight by a weighted line, and he had a weighted line in his hand.

8 परमप्रभुले मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, “आमोस, तैंले के देखिस्?” मैले भनें, “एउटा साहुल ।” परमप्रभुले भन्‍नुभयो, “हेर, इस्राएलका मेरा मानिसहरूका बिचमा म एउटा साहुल राख्‍नेछु । म तिनीहरूलाई अब बाँकी छोड्नेछैनँ ।

And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin:

9 इसहाकका उच्‍च ठाउँहरू नष्‍ट पारिनेछन्, इस्राएलका पवित्र स्थानहरू तहस-नहस पारिनेछन्, र म तरवार लिएर यारोबामको घरानाको विरुद्ध खडा हुनेछु ।”

And the high places of Isaac will be unpeopled, and the holy places of Israel will be made waste; and I will come up against the family of Jeroboam with the sword.

10 तब बेथेलका पुजारी अमस्‍याहले इस्राएलका राजा यारोबामलाई यो सन्देश पठाएः “इस्राएलको घरानाको बिचमा आमोसले तपाईंको विरुद्धमा षड्‌यन्‍त्र रचेको छ । यस देशले त्यसका सबै बोली सहन सक्‍दैन ।

Then Amaziah, the priest of Beth-el, sent to Jeroboam, king of Israel, saying, Amos has made designs against you among the people of Israel: the land is troubled by his words.

11 किनकि आमोसले यसो भन्‍यो, ‘यारोबाम तरवारद्वारा मर्नेछ, र इस्राएल निश्‍चय नै आफ्नो देशबाट टाढा निर्वासनमा जानेछ ।’”

For Amos has said, Jeroboam will be put to the sword, and Israel will certainly be taken away as a prisoner out of his land.

12 अमस्‍याहले आमोसलाई भने, “ए दर्शी, दौडेर यहूदाको देशमा जाऊ, र त्यहाँ रोटी खाऊ अनि अगमवाणी गर ।

And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go in flight into the land of Judah, and there get your living by working as a prophet:

13 तर यहाँ बेथेलमा अरू धेरै अगमवाणी नगर, किनकि यो राजाको पवित्र-स्थान र एउटा राजकीय घराना हो ।”

But be a prophet no longer at Beth-el: for it is the holy place of the king, and the king's house.

14 अनि आमोसले अमस्‍याहलाई भने, “म अगमवक्ता होइनँ, न त अगमवक्ताका छोरा हुँ । म त एउटा गोठालो हुँ, र म त अन्जीरका रूखहरूको रेखदेख गर्छु ।

Then Amos in answer said to Amaziah, I am no prophet, or one of the sons of the prophets; I am a herdman and one who takes care of sycamore-trees:

15 तर परमप्रभुले मलाई बगालको हेरचाह गर्नबाट पर लानुभयो र मलाई भन्‍नुभयो, ‘जा, मेरा मानिस, इस्राएलको निम्ति अगमवाणी गर ।’

And the Lord took me from the flock, and the Lord said to me, Go, be a prophet to my people Israel.

16 अब परमप्रभुको वचन सुन । तिमी भन्छौ, ‘इस्राएलको विरुद्धमा अगमवाणी नगर, र इसहाकको घरानाको विरुद्धमा नबोल ।’

Now then, give ear to the word of the Lord: You say, Be no prophet to Israel, and say not a word against the people of Isaac.

17 यसकारण परमप्रभु यसो भन्‍नुहुन्छ, ‘तेरी पत्‍नी सहरमा वेश्‍या हुनेछे, तेरा छोराहरू र तेरा छोरीहरू तरवारद्वारा मारिनेछन्, तेरो देश नापिनेछ र विभाजन गरिनेछ, तँ एउटा अशुद्ध देशमा मर्नेछस्, र इस्राएल निश्‍चय नै आफ्नो देशबाट निर्वासनमा जानेछ ।’”

So this is what the Lord has said: Your wife will be a loose woman in the town, and your sons and your daughters will be put to the sword, and your land will be cut up into parts by a line; and you yourself will come to your end in an unclean land, and Israel will certainly be taken away a prisoner out of his land.
