Amos 7

1 Ovo mi pokaza Gospod Gospod: gle, sazdavaše skakavce kad poèinjaše nicati otava, i gle, bijaše otava po carevoj kosidbi.

The Lord Jehovah showed me this vision: Behold, he formed locusts In the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; Behold, it was the latter growth after the king's mowing.

2 A kad pojedoše travu zemaljsku, tada rekoh: Gospode, Gospode, smiluj se; kako æe se podignuti Jakov? jer je mali.

And when they had devoured the grass of the land, Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob stand? For he is small!

3 Gospod se raskaja za to: neæe biti, reèe Gospod.

Jehovah repented of this; It shall not be, said Jehovah.

4 Tada mi pokaza Gospod Gospod, i gle, Gospod Gospod povika da æe suditi ognjem; i oganj proždrije veliku bezdanu i proždrije dio zemlje.

The Lord Jehovah also showed me this vision: Behold, the Lord Jehovah commanded the fire to execute judgment; And it devoured the great deep, And it devoured the fields.

5 A ja rekoh: Gospode, Gospode, prestani; kako æe se podignuti Jakov? jer je mali.

Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, desist, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob stand? For he is small!

6 Gospod se raskaja za to: ni to neæe biti, reèe Gospod Gospod.

Jehovah repented of this; This also shall not be, said the Lord Jehovah.

7 Tada mi pokaza, i gle, Gospod stajaše na zidu sazidanu po mjerilima, i u ruci mu bjehu mjerila.

He also showed me this vision: Behold, the Lord stood upon a wall, built with a plumb-line, And in his hand was a plumb-line;

8 I reèe mi Gospod: što vidiš, Amose? I rekoh: mjerila. A Gospod mi reèe: evo, ja æu metnuti mjerila posred naroda svojega Izrailja, neæu ga više prolaziti.

And Jehovah said to me, What seest thou, Amos? And I said, A plumb-line. And the Lord said, Behold I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not spare them any more.

9 Jer æe se razoriti visine Isakove, i svetinje æe Izrailjeve opustjeti, i ustaæu na dom Jerovoamov s maèem.

The high places of Isaac shall be desolate, And the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste, And I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.

10 Tada Amasija sveštenik Vetiljski posla k Jerovoamu caru Izrailjevu i poruèi mu: Amos diže bunu na te usred doma Izrailjeva, zemlja ne može podnijeti svijeh rijeèi njegovijeh.

Then sent Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, To Jeroboam, the king of Israel, and said: Amos conspireth against thee in the midst of the house of Israel; The land is not able to bear all his words.

11 Jer ovako govori Amos: Jerovoam æe poginuti od maèa, a Izrailj æe se odvesti iz zemlje svoje u ropstvo.

For thus hath Amos said: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, And Israel shall surely be led captive from their own land.

12 Potom reèe Amasija Amosu: vidioèe, idi, bježi u zemlju Judinu, i ondje jedi hljeb i ondje prorokuj;

And Amaziah said to Amos, Go, thou seer! flee into the land of Judah! There eat thy bread, and there prophesy!

13 A u Vetilju više ne prorokuj, jer je svetinja careva i dom je carski.

But prophesy no more at Bethel, For it is the king's sanctuary, And it is the king's abode.

14 A Amos odgovori i reèe Amasiji: ne bjeh prorok ni proroèki sin, nego bjeh govedar i brah dudove;

Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah: I was no prophet, nor the son of a prophet; I was a shepherd, and a gatherer of sycamore fruit.

15 A Gospod me uze od stada i reèe mi Gospod: idi, prorokuj narodu mojemu Izrailju.

And Jehovah took me from the flock; And Jehovah said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel!

16 Sada dakle èuj rijeè Gospodnju. Ti kažeš: ne prorokuj u Izrailju, i ne kropi po domu Isakovu.

Now, therefore, hear the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, And speak no word against the house of Isaac!

17 Zato ovako veli Gospod: žena æe ti se kurvati u gradu, i sinovi æe tvoji i kæeri tvoje pasti od maèa, i zemlja æe se tvoja razdijeliti užem, i ti æeš umrijeti u neèistoj zemlji, a Izrailj æe se odvesti iz svoje zemlje u ropstvo.

Therefore thus saith Jehovah: “Thy wife shall be put to shame in the city, And thy sons and daughters shall fall by the sword; Thy land shall be divided by the line, And thou shalt die in a polluted land, And Israel shall surely be led captive from his own land.”
