< Amos 2 >

1 Ovako veli Gospod: za tri zla i za èetiri što uèini Moav, neæu mu oprostiti, jer sažeže kosti cara Edomskoga u kreè.
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 Nego æu pustiti oganj na Moava, te æe proždrijeti dvorove u Kariotu, i Moav æe poginuti s vrevom, s vikom i s glasom trubnijem.
But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kerioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3 I istrijebiæu sudiju iz njega i sve knezove njegove pobiæu s njim, veli Gospod.
And I will cut off the judge from the midst of it and will slay all its princes with him, saith the LORD.
4 Ovako veli Gospod: za tri zla i za èetiri što uèini Juda, neæu mu oprostiti, jer prezreše zakon Gospodnji i uredaba njegovijeh ne držaše, i prevariše se lažima svojim, za kojima hodiše oci njihovi.
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away their punishment; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after which their fathers have walked:
5 Nego æu pustiti oganj u Judu, te æe proždrijeti dvore Jerusalimske.
But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
6 Ovako veli Gospod: za tri zla i za èetiri što uèini Izrailj, neæu mu oprostiti, jer prodavaše pravednika za novce i ubogoga za jedne opanke.
Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away their punishment; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
7 Èeznu za prahom zemaljskim na glavi siromasima, i prevraæaju put smjernima; i sin i otac odlaze k jednoj djevojci da skvrne sveto ime moje.
That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in to the same maid, to profane my holy name:
8 I na haljinama u zalogu uzetijem leže kod svakoga oltara, i vino oglobljenijeh piju u kuæi bogova svojih.
And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
9 A ja istrijebih ispred njih Amoreje, koji bijahu visoki kao kedri i jaki kao hrastovi, i potrh rod njihov ozgo i žile njihove ozdo.
Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10 I ja vas izvedoh iz zemlje Misirske, i vodih vas po pustinji èetrdeset godina da biste naslijedili zemlju Amorejsku.
Also I brought you from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11 I podizah izmeðu sinova vaših proroke i izmeðu mladiæa vaših nazireje. Nije li tako? sinovi Izrailjevi, govori Gospod.
And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the LORD.
12 A vi pojiste nazireje vinom, i prorocima zabranjivaste govoreæi: ne prorokujte.
But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13 Evo, ja æu vas pritisnuti na mjestu vašem kao što se pritiskuju kola puna snoplja.
Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
14 I neæe biti bijega brzomu, i jaki neæe utvrditi krjeposti svoje, i hrabri neæe spasti duše svoje.
Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15 I strijelac neæe se održati, i laki na nogu neæe se izbaviti, niti æe konjik spasti duše svoje.
Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
16 Nego æe najhrabriji meðu junacima go pobjeæi u onaj dan, govori Gospod.
And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the LORD.
