आमोस 8
1 परमप्रभु परमेश्वरले मलाई यो कुरा देखाउनुभयो। ग्रीष्म ऋतुको फलको एउटा डालो हेर ।
And behold a fowler's basket.
2 उहाँले भन्नुभयो, “आमोस, तँ के देख्छस्?” मैले भनें, “ग्रीष्म ऋतुको फलको एउटा डालो ।” तब परमप्रभुले मलाई यसो भन्नुभयो, “मेरा मानिस, इस्राएलको निम्ति अन्त्य आएको छ । म तिनीहरूलाई अब बाँकी छोड्नेछैनँ ।
And he said, What see you, Amos? And I said, A fowler's basket. And the Lord said to me, The end is come upon my people Israel; I will not pass by them any more.
3 यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो, त्यो दिनमा मन्दिरका गीतहरू रुवाबासीमा बद्लिनेछन्, धेरै लासहरू जता-ततै फलिनेछन्! शान्त हो!”
And the ceilings of the temple shall howl in that day, says the Lord God: [there shall be] many a fallen one in every place; I will bring silence upon [them].
4 खाँचोमा परेकाहरूलाई थिचोमिचो गर्नेहरू, र गरीबहरूलाई देशबाट हटाउनेहरू, यो सुन ।
Hear now this, you that oppress the poor in the morning, and drive the needy ones by tyranny from the earth,
5 तिनीहरू भन्छन्, “औंसी कहिले समाप्त हुन्छ, ताकि हामीहरूले फेरि अन्न बेच्न सकौं? शबाथ दिन कहिले समाप्त हुन्छ, ताकि हामीले गहुँ बेच्न सकौं? हामीले झुटो नापले ठगी गर्दा, हामी मानालाई सानो बनाउनेछौं र मुल्यलाई बढाउनेछौं ।
saying, When will the month pass away, and we shall sell, and the sabbath, and we shall open the treasure, to make the measure small, and to enlarge the weight, and make the balance unfair?
6 यसरी नै हामीले खराब गहुँ बेच्न सक्छौं, गरीबलाई चाँदीले, र खाँचोमा परेकाहरूलाई एक जोर जुत्ताले किन्न सक्छौं ।”
That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for shoes; and we will trade in every kind of fruit.
7 परमप्रभुले याकूबको घमण्डमा यसरी शपथ खानुभएको छ, “निश्चय नै तिनीहरूका कुनै पनि कामहरू म कदापि बिर्सनेछैनँ ।”
The Lord swears against the pride of Jacob, None of your works shall ever be forgotten.
8 यसको निम्ति जमिन काम्नेछैन, अनि त्यसमा बसोबास गर्ने हरेकले विलाप गर्नेछैनन् र? त्यसको सबै थोक नील नदीझैं माथि उठ्नेछ, र मिश्रको नदीझैं त्यो छचल्किनेछ र डुब्नेछ ।
And shall not the land be troubled for these things, and shall not every one who dwells in it mourn? whereas destruction shall come up as a river, and shall descend as the river of Egypt.
9 “यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो— त्यो दिन यस्तो हुनेछ, सुर्यलाई दिउँसै अस्ताउनेछु म बनाउनेछु, र पृथ्वीलाई मध्यदिनमा नै अँध्यारो म बनाउनेछु ।
And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord God, [that] the sun shall go down at noon, and the light shall be darkened on the earth by day:
10 तिमीहरूका चाडहरूलाई विलापमा, अनि तिमीहरूका सबै गीतलाई रुवाईमा म बद्लिनेछु । तिमीहरू सबैलाई भाङ्ग्रा लाउने, र हरेकले कपाल खौरन म बनाउनेछु । एक मात्र छोराको निम्ति विलाप गरेझैं, र त्यसको अन्त्यमा तीतो म बनाउनेछु ।
and I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth on all loins, and baldness on every head; and I will make them as the mourning of a beloved [friend], and those with them as a day of grief.
11 हेर्, यस्ता दिनहरू आउँदैछन्, यो परमप्रभु परमेश्वरको घोषणा हो, जति बेला देशमा म अनिकाल पठाउनेछु, त्यो रोटीको अनिकाल होइन, न त पानीको तिर्खाको हो, तर त्यो परमप्रभुको वचन सुन्ने कुराको हो।
Behold, the days come, says the Lord, that I will send forth a famine on the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the word of the Lord.
12 परमप्रभुको वचनको खोज्नलाई तिनीहरू एक समुद्रदेखि अर्को समुद्रसम्म धर्मराउनेछन्, र उत्तरदेखि पूर्वसम्म दौडनेछन्, तर तिनीहरूले त्यो भेट्टाउनेछैनन् ।
And the waters shall be troubled from sea to sea, and from the north to the east shall [men] run hither and there, seeking the word of the Lord, and they shall not find [it].
13 त्यो दिनमा सुन्दरी कुमारीहरू र जवान मानिसहरू तिर्खाले मूर्छा हुनेछन् ।
In that day shall the fair virgins and the young men faint for thirst;
14 सामरियाको पापमा शपथ खानेहरू र ‘ए दान, तेरो देवता जीवित भएझैं,’ र ‘बेर्शेबाको देवता जीवित भएझैं,’ भनेर भन्नेहरू, तिनीहरू पतन हुनेछन् र फेरि कहिल्यै उठ्नेछैनन् ।”
they who swear by the propitiation of Samaria, and who say, Your god, O Dan, lives; and, Your god, O Bersabee, lives; and they shall fall, and shall no more rise again.
