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 ।

Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, he was forming locusts in the beginning of the sprouting up of the latter groweth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings [was over].

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 to pass, when they had made an end of eating up the herbs of the earth, that I said, O Lord Eternal, forgive, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!

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

The Lord bethought himself of this: It shall not be, said the Lord.

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 ।

Thus did the Lord Eternal show unto me: and, behold, the Lord Eternal called forth the punishment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and consumed the ploughed field.

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

Then said I, O Lord Eternal, forbear, I beseech thee: how should Jacob be able to endure, since he is so small!

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

The Lord bethought himself of this: Also this shall not be, said the Lord Eternal.

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

Thus he showed unto me: and, behold, the Lord was standing upon a wall [made] by a plumbline, and in his hand was a plumbline.

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 unto me, What dost thou see, 'Amos? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not farther indulge them any more.

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 shall be made desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid in ruins: and I will rise up against the house of Jerobo'am 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 sent Amazyah, the priest of Beth-el, to Jerobo'am the king of Israel, saying, 'Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.

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

For thus hath 'Amos said, By the sword shall Jerobo'am die, and Israel shall surely be led away into exile out of their own land.

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

And Amazyah said unto 'Amos, Seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and eat there [thy] bread, and there prophesy;

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

But at Beth-el prophesy not farther any more; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal residence.

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 answered 'Amos, and said to Amazyah, I am no prophet, nor am I a prophet's son; but I am a herdman, and a gatherer of wild figs;

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

But the Lord hath taken me away from behind the flocks, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.

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

And now hear thou the word of the Lord, Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house 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 ।’”

Therefore thus hath said the Lord, Thy wife will play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided out by the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall surely be led forth into exile out of their land.
