< Amoos 7 >
1 Waaqayyo Gooftaan waan kana natti argisiise: Inni erga qoodni mootichaa haamamee booddee, utuma midhaan lammaffaan gaʼaa jiruu tuuta hawwaannisaa qopheesse.
Nanku engakutshengiswa nguThixo Wobukhosi: Wayelungisa imitshitshi yezintethe emva kokuvunwa kwesabelo senkosi khonapho amabele esibili esakhula.
2 Anis erga hawwaannisni sun lafa barbadeessee booddee, “Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, nuuf araarami! Yaaqoob akkamiin dandaʼee badiisa irraa hafa? Inni daaʼima xinnaa dha!” jedheen iyye.
Kwathi lapho ilizwe seziliphundlile, ngamemeza ngathi, “Thixo Wobukhosi, thethelela! UJakhobe angaphepha kanjani? Mncinyane kakhulu!”
3 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo ni gaabbe. Waaqayyos, “Wanni kun hin taʼu” jedhe.
Ngakho uthixo waxola. “Akusoze kwenzakale” watsho uthixo.
4 Waaqayyo Gooftaan waan kana natti argisiise; Waaqayyo Gooftaan murtii kennuuf ibidda waamaa ture; ibiddi sunis tuujuba guddaa gogsee lafas ni barbadeesse.
Nanku engakutshengiswa nguThixo Wobukhosi: uThixo Wobukhosi wayememezela ukwehlulela ngomlilo; womisa ulwandle waqothula lelizwe.
5 Kana irratti ani, “Yaa Waaqayyo Gooftaa, ani sin kadhadhaa, waan kana nurraa dhaabi! Yaaqoob akkamiin waan kana irraa hafa? Inni daaʼima xinnaa dha!” jedheen iyye.
Ngakho ngamemeza ngathi “Thixo Wobukhosi, ngiyakuncenga, ake ume! UJakhobe angaphepha kanjani na? Mncinyane kakhulu!”
6 Kanaafuu Waaqayyo ni gaabbe. Waaqayyo Gooftaan, “Wanni kunis hin taʼu” jedhe.
Ngakho uThixo waxola. “Lokhu lakho akuyikwenzakala,” kwatsho uThixo Wobukhosi.
7 Inni waan kana na argisiise: Gooftaan tumbii harkatti qabatee dallaa tumbiidhaan ijaarame bira dhaabachaa ture.
Nanku angitshengisa khona: uThixo wayemi phansi komduli owawakhiwe waqonda nta ephethe intambo yokuqondisa ngesandla sakhe
8 Waaqayyos, “Amoos, ati maal arguutti jirta?” jedhee na gaafate. Anis, “Tumbii nan arga” jedheen deebise. Gooftaanis akkana naan jedhe; “Kunoo ani saba koo Israaʼel gidduu tumbii tokko nan kaaʼa; ani siʼachi isaan hin baraaru.
UThixo wasengibuza esithi, “Kuyini okubonayo, Amosi?” Ngaphendula ngathi, “Yintambo yokuqondisa.” UThixo wasesithi, “Khangela, ngibeka intambo yokuqondisa phakathi kwabantu bami bako-Israyeli; kangisayikubaxolela futhi.
9 “Iddoowwan sagadaa Yisihaaq ni barbadaaʼu; iddoon qulqulluun Israaʼelis ni ona; ani goraadee kootiin mana Yerobiʼaamitti nan kaʼa.”
Izindawo eziphakemeyo zika-Isaka zizadilizwa lezindawo ezingcwele zako-Israyeli zizachithwa; indlu kaJerobhowamu ngizayihlasela ngenkemba yami.”
10 Ergasii Amasiyaa lubni Beetʼeel akkana jedhee Yerobiʼaam mooticha Israaʼelitti ergaa tokko erge; “Amoos garaa Israaʼel keessatti sitti malateera. Dubbii isaa hunda lafti iyyuu baachuu hin dandeessu.
U-Amaziya umphristi waseBhetheli wathumela ilizwi kuJerobhowamu inkosi yako-Israyeli, wathi, “U-Amosi uceba okubi ngawe khona kanye phakathi kwako-Israyeli. Ilizwe lingeke limelane lawo wonke amazwi akhe.
11 Amoos akkana jedheeraatii: “‘Yerobiʼaam goraadeedhaan duʼa; Israaʼelis dhugumaan boojiʼamee biyya isaatii ni fudhatama.’”
Ngoba u-Amosi uthi: ‘UJerobhowamu uzakufa ngenkemba, njalo impela u-Israyeli uzathunjwa, asiwe khatshana kwelizwe lakibo.’”
12 Kana irratti Amasiyaan Amoosiin akkana jedhe; “Yaa ilaaltuu nana, sokki! Biyya Yihuudaatti deebiʼi. Achitti buddeena nyaadhu; raajiis dubbadhu.
U-Amaziya wasesithi ku-Amosi, “Phuma, wena mboni! Buyela elizweni lakoJuda, usebenzele ukudla kwakho khonale wenze lokuphrofetha kwakho khonale.
13 Sababii inni iddoo qulqulluu mootichaatii fi mana qulqullummaa mootummaa taʼeef ati lammata Beetʼeel keessatti raajii hin dubbatin.”
Ungaphrofithi futhi eBhetheli, ngoba le yindawo yenkosi kanye lethempeli lombuso.”
14 Amoos immoo akkana jedhee Amasiyaaf deebise; “Ani raajii yookaan ilma raajii miti; garuu ani tiksee fi eegduu muka harbuun ture.
U-Amosi waphendula u-Amaziya wathi, “Mina ngangingasuye mphrofethi kumbe indodana yomphrofethi, kodwa ngangingumelusi, njalo ngigcina izihlahla zomkhiwa wesikhamore.
15 Waaqayyo garuu tika bushaayee keessaa na fuudhee, ‘Dhaqii saba koo Israaʼelitti raajii dubbadhu’ naan jedhe.
Kodwa uThixo wangithatha ekweluseni imihlambi yezimvu wathi kimi, ‘Hamba uyephrofetha ebantwini bami bako-Israyeli.’
16 Egaa amma dubbii Waaqayyoo dhagaʼi. Ati akkana jetta; “‘Ati Israaʼeliin mormuudhaan raajii hin dubbatin; mana Yisihaaq mormuudhaan lallabuu dhiisi.’
Ngakho-ke khathesi zwana ilizwi likaThixo. Wena uthi: ‘Ungaphrofethi kubi ngo-Israyeli, njalo yekela ukutshumayela kubi ngendlela ka-Isaka.’
17 “Kanaafuu Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “‘Niitiin kee magaalaa keessatti sagaagaltuu taati; ilmaan keetii fi intallan kee goraadeedhaan dhumu. Biyyi kee safaramtee gargar qoodamti; ati mataan kee iyyuu biyya ormaatti duuta. Israaʼel dhugumaan boojiʼamee biyya isaatii ni fuudhama.’”
Ngakho-ke nanku okutshiwo nguThixo: ‘Umkakho uzakuba yisifebe edolobheni, amadoda lamadodakazi akho azakufa ngenkemba. Ilizwe lakho lizalinganiswa labiwe, njalo wena ngokwakho uzafela elizweni lamaqaba. Njalo impela u-Israyeli uzathunjwa asiwe khatshana kwelizwe lakhe.’”
