< Amós 1 >
1 Las palabras de Amós, que estaba entre los pastores de Tecoa, que vio sobre Israel en los días de Uzías, rey de Judá, y en los días de Jeroboam, hijo de Joás, rey de Israel, dos años antes del terremoto.
The words of Amos, who was among the herdsmen of Tekoa; what he saw about 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 earth-shock.
2 Dijo: “Yahvé rugirá desde Sión, y pronuncie su voz desde Jerusalén; y los pastos de los pastores estarán de luto, y la cima del Carmelo se marchitará”.
And he said, The Lord will give a lion's cry from Zion, his voice will be sounding from Jerusalem; and the fields of the keepers of sheep will become dry, and the top of Carmel will be wasted away.
3 Yahvé dice: “Por tres transgresiones de Damasco, sí, por cuatro, No rechazaré su castigo, porque han trillado Galaad con trillos de hierro;
These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Damascus, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they have been crushing Gilead with iron grain-crushing instruments.
4 pero enviaré fuego a la casa de Hazael, y devorará los palacios de Ben Hadad.
And I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, burning up the great houses of Ben-hadad.
5 Romperé la barra de Damasco, y cortar el habitante del valle de Aven, y el que tiene el cetro de la casa del Edén; y el pueblo de Siria irá en cautiverio a Kir,” dice Yahvé.
And I will have the locks of the door of Damascus broken, and him who is seated in power cut off from the valley of Aven, and him in whose hand is the rod from the house of Eden; and the people of Aram will go away as prisoners into Kir, says the Lord.
6 Yahvé dice: “Por tres transgresiones de Gaza, sí, por cuatro, No rechazaré su castigo, porque se llevaron cautiva a toda la comunidad, para entregarlos a Edom;
These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Gaza, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they took all the people away prisoners, to give them up to Edom.
7 pero enviaré un fuego sobre el muro de Gaza, y devorará sus palacios.
And I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, burning up its great houses:
8 Cortaré al habitante de Asdod, y el que tiene el cetro de Ashkelon; y volveré mi mano contra Ecrón; y el remanente de los filisteos perecerá”. dice el Señor Yahvé.
Him who is seated in power I will have cut off from Ashdod, and him in whose hand is the rod from Ashkelon; and my hand will be turned against Ekron, and the rest of the Philistines will come to destruction, says the Lord God.
9 Yahvé dice: “Por tres transgresiones de Tiro, sí, por cuatro, No rechazaré su castigo; porque entregaron toda la comunidad a Edom, y no recordaba el pacto entre hermanos;
These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because they gave up all the people prisoners to Edom, without giving a thought to the brothers' agreement between them.
10 pero enviaré un fuego sobre el muro de Tiro, y devorará sus palacios”.
And I will send a fire on the wall of Tyre, burning up its great houses.
11 Yahvé dice: “Por tres transgresiones de Edom, sí, por cuatro, No rechazaré su castigo, porque persiguió a su hermano con la espada y desechar toda piedad, y su cólera no cesaba, y guardó su ira para siempre;
These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of Edom, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because his sword was turned against his brother, without pity, and his wrath was burning at all times, and he was angry for ever.
12 pero enviaré un fuego sobre Temán, y devorará los palacios de Bozra”.
And I will send a fire on Teman, burning up the great houses of Bozrah.
13 Yahvé dice: “Por tres transgresiones de los hijos de Amón, sí, por cuatro, No rechazaré su castigo, porque han desgarrado a las mujeres embarazadas de Galaad, para que puedan ampliar su frontera.
These are the words of the Lord: For three crimes of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not let its fate be changed; because in Gilead they had women with child cut open, so that they might make wider the limits of their land.
14 Pero yo encenderé un fuego en el muro de Rabá, y devorará sus palacios, con gritos en el día de la batalla, con una tormenta en el día del torbellino;
And I will make a fire in the wall of Rabbah, burning up its great houses, with loud cries in the days of war, with a storm in the day of the great wind:
15 y su rey irán al cautiverio, él y sus príncipes juntos,” dice Yahvé.
And their king will be made prisoner, he and his captains together, says the Lord.
