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 ।

Here, My Lord, Yahweh gave me to see, and lo! he was preparing the locust, in the beginning of the shooting up of the after-grass, —and lo! after-grass, cometh after the mowings for the king.

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 the herbage of the land, that I said—Oh, My Lord, Yahweh, forgive, I beseech thee: By whom shall Jacob, arise? for, small, he is.

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

Grieved was Yahweh, over this, —It shall not be, said Yahweh?

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 ।

Here, My Lord, Yahweh gave me to see, and lo! My Lord Yahweh proclaiming that, the controversy should be settled by fire, —which, having devoured the mighty roaring deep, should devour the inheritance.

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

Then said I, My Lord, Yahweh, forbear, I beseech thee, By whom shall Jacob, arise? for, small, he is.

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

Grieved was Yahweh, over this, —Even this, shall not be, said My Lord, Yahweh.

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

Here, he gave me to see, and lo! My Lord, stationed upon a pinnacle, —and, in his hand a plummet.

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 Yahweh said unto me, What canst thou see, Amos? And I said, A plummet, —Then said My Lord, Behold me! fixing a plummet in the midst of my people Israel, I will not again any more forgive him.

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

So shall the high places of Isaac, be made desolate, and, the holy places of Israel, be laid waste, —and I will rise up, against the house 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 sent Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, unto Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: A conspiracy hath Amos, raised against thee, in the midst of the house of Israel, The land, is not able to endure, all his words;

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

For, thus, saith Amos, By the sword, shall Jeroboam, die, —and, Israel, shall, surely be exiled, from off his own soil.

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

Then said Amaziah unto Amos, O seer, go flee thee away unto the land of Judah—and eat, there, bread, and, there, mayest thou prophesy;

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

But, at Bethel, not again, any more, mayest thou prophesy, —for, the holy place of the king, it is, and, the house of the kingdom, it is.

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 unto Amaziah, No prophet, was I, —nor the son of a prophet, was I, —but, a herdman, was I, and a preparer of sycamore fruit;

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

But Yahweh, took me away, from following the flock, —and Yahweh, said unto me, Go prophesy against my people Israel.

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

Now, therefore, hear thou the word of Yahweh, —Thou art saying, Thou must not prophesy concerning Israel, nor let thy word drop down upon 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, saith Yahweh, Thy wife, in the city, will commit unchastity, and, thy sons and thy daughters, by the sword, shall fall, and, thine own soil, by line, shall he apportioned, —and, thou, on a polluted soil, shalt die, and, Israel, shall, surely go into exile, away from his own soil.
