Amos 7
1 Tako mi je Gospod Bog pokazal in glej, oblikoval je kobilice v začetku poganjanja otave in glej, to je bila otava po kraljevih košnjah.
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 Pripetilo se je, ko so končale z objedanjem trave dežele, da sem nato rekel: »Oh Gospod Bog, odpusti, rotim te. Po kom bo Jakob vstal? Kajti majhen je.«
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 je zaradi tega pokesal. »To ne bo, « govori Gospod.
Jehovah repented of this; It shall not be, said Jehovah.
4 Tako mi je Gospod Bog pokazal in glej, Gospod Bog je klical k pričkanju z ognjem in ta je požrl veliko globino in pojedel del.
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 Potem sem rekel: »Oh Gospod Bog, odnehaj, rotim te. Po kom bo Jakob vstal? Kajti majhen je.«
Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, desist, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob stand? For he is small!
6 Gospod se je zaradi tega pokesal: »Tudi to se ne bo zgodilo, « govori Gospod Bog.
Jehovah repented of this; This also shall not be, said the Lord Jehovah.
7 Zato mi je pokazal in glej, Gospod je stal na zidu, narejenem s svinčnico, s svinčnico v svoji roki.
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 Gospod mi je rekel: »Amos, kaj vidiš?« Rekel sem: »Svinčnico.« Potem je Gospod rekel: »Glej, postavil bom svinčnico v sredo svojega ljudstva Izraela. Ne bom več ponovno šel mimo njega
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 in Izakovi visoki kraji bodo zapuščeni in Izraelova svetišča bodo opustošena in z mečem se bom dvignil zoper Jerobeámovo hišo.«
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 Potem je Amacjá, duhovnik iz Betela, poslal k Jerobeámu, Izraelovemu kralju, rekoč: »Amos se je zarotil zoper tebe v sredi Izraelove hiše. Dežela ni zmožna prenesti vseh njegovih besed.
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 Kajti tako govori Amos: ›Jerobeám bo umrl pod mečem in Izrael bo zagotovo iz svoje lastne dežele odveden v ujetništvo.‹«
For thus hath Amos said: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, And Israel shall surely be led captive from their own land.
12 Amacjá je prav tako rekel Amosu: »Oh ti videc, pojdi, pobegni proč v Judovo deželo in tam jej kruh in tam prerokuj,
And Amaziah said to Amos, Go, thou seer! flee into the land of Judah! There eat thy bread, and there prophesy!
13 toda ne prerokuj ponovno pri Betelu, kajti to je kraljeva kapela in to je kraljevi dvor.«
But prophesy no more at Bethel, For it is the king's sanctuary, And it is the king's abode.
14 Potem je Amos odgovoril in rekel Amacjáju: »Jaz nisem bil nikakršen prerok niti nisem bil prerokov sin, temveč sem bil črednik in obiralec sadu egiptovske smokve
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 in Gospod me je vzel, medtem ko sem sledil tropu in Gospod mi je rekel: ›Pojdi, prerokuj mojemu ljudstvu Izraelu.
And Jehovah took me from the flock; And Jehovah said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel!
16 Zdaj torej poslušaj Gospodovo besedo: ›Praviš: ›Ne prerokuj zoper Izrael in ne kapljaj svoje besede zoper Izakovo hišo.‹
Now, therefore, hear the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, And speak no word against the house of Isaac!
17 Zato tako govori Gospod: ›Tvoja žena bo pocestnica v mestu in tvoji sinovi in tvoje hčere bodo padli pod mečem in tvoja dežela bo razdeljena z vrvico, ti pa boš umrl v oskrunjeni deželi, in Izrael bo zagotovo odšel v ujetništvo, iz svoje dežele.‹«
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.”
