< Amoos 1 >

1 Kun mulʼata Amoos inni tikseewwan Teqooʼaa keessaa tokko ture sun bara Uziyaan mootii Yihuudaa, Yerobiʼaam ilmi Yooʼaash immoo mootii Israaʼel turetti, utuu sochiin lafaa hin taʼin waggaa lama dura waaʼee Israaʼel argee dha.
The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 Innis akkana jedhe: “Waaqayyo Xiyoon keessaa iyya; Yerusaalem keessaa sagalee dhageessisa; dirreen tiksoonni itti bobbaasan ni goga; fiixeen gaara Qarmeloosis ni coollaga.”
And he said, Jehovah roareth from Zion, and uttereth his voice from Jerusalem; and the pastures of the shepherds mourn, and the top of Carmel withereth.
3 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Damaasqoo sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii isaan meeshaa ittiin midhaan dhaʼan kan ilkaan sibiilaa qabuun Giliʼaadin tumaniif,
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not revoke [my sentence], because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron.
4 ani ibidda daʼannoo Ben-Hadaad barbadeessu tokko, mana Hazaaʼeelitti nan erga.
And I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, and it shall devour the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
5 Ani karra Damaasqoo nan cabsa; mootii Sulula Aawwen keessa jiruu fi isa Beet Eden keessatti bokkuu qabatu nan balleessa. Uummanni Sooriyaa boojiʼamee Qiiritti ni geeffama” jedha Waaqayyo.
And I will break the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Beth-Eden; and the people of Syria shall go into captivity unto Kir, saith Jehovah.
6 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Gaazaa sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii isheen hawaasa hunda boojitee Edoomitti gurguratteef,
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Gazah, and for four, I will not revoke its sentence; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver [them] up to Edom.
7 ani ibidda daʼannoo ishee barbadeessu tokko dallaa Gaazaatti nan erga.
And I will send a fire on the wall of Gazah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
8 Ani mootii Ashdoodii fi isa Ashqaloon keessatti bokkuu qabatu sana nan balleessa. Ani hamma hambaan Filisxeemotaa duʼuutti harka koo Eqroonitti nan deebifadha” jedha Waaqayyo Gooftaan.
And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn my hand against Ekron; and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord Jehovah.
9 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Xiiroos sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii isheen walii galtee obbolummaa cabsitee hawaasa boojiʼame guutuu Edoomitti gurguratteef
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not revoke its sentence; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant.
10 ani ibidda daʼannoo ishee barbadeessu tokko dallaa Xiiroositti nan erga.”
And I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, and it shall devour the palaces thereof.
11 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Edoom sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii inni gara laafina hunda gatee obboleessa isaa goraadeedhaan ariʼeef, sababii aariin isaa ittuma fufee hoʼee dheekkamsi isaas utuu hin dhowwamin bobaʼeef,
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not revoke its sentence; because he pursued his brother with the sword, and cast off all pity; and his anger did tear continually, and he kept his wrath for ever.
12 ani ibidda daʼannoo Bozraa barbadeessu tokko Teemaanitti nan erga.”
And I will send a fire upon Teman, and it shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Waaqayyo akkana jedha: “Ani cubbuu Amoon sadiif, afuriifis dheekkamsa koo duubatti hin deebisu. Sababii inni daangaa isaa babalʼifachuuf jedhee dubartoota Giliʼaad kanneen ulfa qaban baqaqseef
Thus saith Jehovah: For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not revoke its sentence; because they ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border.
14 ani guyyaa lolaatti wacaan, guyyaa qilleensa hamaatti immoo bubbee jabaadhaan ibidda daʼannoo ishee barbadeessu tokko dallaa Rabbaatti nan erga.
And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind.
15 Mootiin ishee boojiʼamee innii fi qondaaltonni isaa wajjin ni boojiʼamu” jedha Waaqayyo.
And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith Jehovah.
