Amós 1
1 As palavras de Amós, que era d'entre os pastores de Tecoa, as quaes viu sobre Israel, nos dias de Uzias, rei de Judah, e nos dias de Jeroboão, filho de Joás, rei de Israel, dois annos antes do terremoto.
The words of 'Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he foresaw concerning Israel in the days of 'Uzziyah the king of Judah, and in the days of Jerobo'am the son of Joash the king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
2 E disse: O Senhor bramará de Sião, e de Jerusalem dará a sua voz: as habitações dos pastores prantearão, e seccar-se-ha o cume do Carmelo.
And he said, The Lord will cry aloud out of Zion, and from Jerusalem will he send forth his voice; and then shall mourn the pastures of the shepherds, and then shall dry up the top of Carmel.
3 Assim diz o Senhor: Por tres transgressões de Damasco, e por quatro, não o afastarei, porque trilharam a Gilead com trilhos de ferro.
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have threshed [the inhabitants of] Gil'ad with threshing instruments of iron;
4 Por isso porei fogo á casa de Hazael, e consumirá os palacios de Benhadad.
And I will send a fire into the house of Chazael, which shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
5 E quebrarei o ferrolho de Damasco, e exterminarei o morador de Biqueat-aven, e ao que tem o sceptro de Beth-eden; e o povo da Syria será levado em captiveiro a Kir, diz o Senhor.
And I will break the bars of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitants from the valley of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of 'Eden: and the people of Syria shall be exiled unto Kir, saith the Lord.
6 Assim diz o Senhor: Por tres transgressões de Gaza, e por quatro, não o afastarei, porque levaram em captiveiro todos os captivos para os entregarem a Edom.
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Gazzah, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they carried away exiles in full numbers, to deliver them up to Edom;
7 Por isso porei fogo ao muro de Gaza, que consumirá os seus palacios.
And I will send a fire against the wall of Gazzah, which shall devour her palaces;
8 E exterminarei o morador de Asdod, e o que tem o sceptro de Ascalon, e tornarei a minha mão contra Ecron; e o resto dos philisteos perecerá, diz o Senhor Jehovah.
And I will cut off the inhabitants 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 Eternal.
9 Assim diz o Senhor: Por tres transgressões de Tyro, e por quatro, não o afastarei, porque entregaram todos os captivos a Edom, e não se lembraram da alliança dos irmãos.
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they delivered up the exiles in full numbers to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant;
10 Por isso porei fogo ao muro de Tyro, que consumirá os seus palacios.
And I will send a fire against the walls of Tyre, which shall devour her palaces.
11 Assim diz o Senhor: Por tres transgressões de Edom, e por quatro, não o afastarei, porque perseguiu a seu irmão á espada, e corrompeu as suas misericordias; e a sua ira despedaça eternamente, e retem a sua indignação para sempre
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because he pursued with the sword his brother, and disregarded his mercy, and his anger tore in pieces continually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
12 Por isso porei fogo a Teman, que consumirá os palacios de Bozra.
And I will send out a fire against Theman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
13 Assim diz o Senhor: Por tres transgressões dos filhos de Ammon, e por quatro, não o afastarei, porque fenderam as gravidas de Gilead, para dilatarem os seus termos.
Thus hath said the Lord, For three transgressions of the children of 'Ammon, and for four, will I not turn away their punishment; because they have ripped up the pregnant women of Gil'ad, in order to enlarge their own territory;
14 Por isso porei fogo ao muro de Rabba, que consumirá os seus palacios, com alarido no dia da batalha, com tempestade no dia da tormenta.
And I will kindle a fire within the walls of Rabbah, which shall devour her palaces, with shouting on the day of battle, with a storm on the day of the tempest;
15 E o seu rei irá para o captiveiro, elle e os seus principes juntamente, diz o Senhor.
And their king shall go into exile, he and his princes together, saith the Lord.
