Amosi 8
1 Hiki ndicho ambacho bwana Yahwe amenionyesha. Tazama, kikapu cha matunda ya hari!
Thus he showed me [the] Lord Yahweh and there! a basket of summer fruit.
2 Akasema, “Unaona nini, Amosi?” Nikasema, “Kikapu cha matunda ya hari.” Kisha Yahwe akanambia, “Mwisho umefika kwa watu wangu Israeli; sintowaumiza tena.
And he said what? [are] you seeing O Amos and I said a basket of summer fruit and he said Yahweh to me it has come the end to people my Israel not I will repeat again to pass by it.
3 Nyimbo za kwenye hekalu zitakuwa vilio. Katika siku hiyo-hivi ndivyo asemavyo Bwana Yahwe. Mizoga itakuwa mingi, katika kila sehemu wataitupa katika ukimya!”
And they will wail songs of [the] temple on the day that [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh many the corpse[s] in every place someone will throw hush!
4 Lisikilizeni hili, ninyi mkanyagao maskini na kumuondoa fukara wa nchi.
Hear this O those [who] trample on [the] needy and to put an end to ([the] afflicted [people] of *Q(K)*) [the] land.
5 wakisema, “Wakati mwezi mpya utakapoisha, hivyo tunaweza kuuza mazao tena? Wakati siku ya Sabato itakapoisha, ili kwamba tuuze ngano? Tutafanya kipimo kidogo na kuongeza bei, tukidanganya kwa mizani za udanganyifu.
Saying when? will it pass the new moon so we may sell grain grain and the sabbath so we may open grain to make small an ephah and to make great a shekel and to falsify balances of deceit.
6 Hivi ndivyo ambavyo tunaweza kuuza ngano mbaya, kununua fukara kwa fedha, na masikini kwa jozi moja ya kubadhi.”
To buy for silver poor [people] and [the] needy for sake of a pair of sandals and refuse of grain we will sell grain.
7 Yahwe ameapa kwa fahari ya Yakobo, “Hakika sintoweza kusahau kazi zao hata moja.”
He has sworn Yahweh by [the] pride of Jacob if I will forget to perpetuity all deeds their.
8 Je nchi haitatetemeka kwa hili, na kila mmoja aishiye kuombolezea? Yote hayo yatainuka kama Mto Naili, nayo itataabika juu na kupwa tena, kama mto wa Misri.
¿ On this not will it tremble the land and he will mourn every [one who] dwells in it and it will rise like the light all of it and it will be tossed (and it will sink *Q(K)*) like [the] River of Egypt.
9 “Itakuja siku ambayo -huu ndio usemi wa Bwana Yahwe- kwamba nitafanya jua litue wakati wa mchana, na nitaiweka giza dunia wakati wa mchana.
And it will be - on the day that [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and I will cause to go the sun at noon and I will make dark the earth in a day of light.
10 Nitazigeuza sikukuu zenu kuwa maombolezo na nyimbo zenu zote kuwa masikitiko. Nitawafanya wote kuvaa nguo za magunia na kipara juu ya kila kichwa. Nitayafanya haya kama maombolezo kwa mwana pekee, na siku ya uchungu mwisho wake.
And I will turn feasts your into mourning and all songs your into lamentation and I will bring up on all loins sackcloth and on every head baldness and I will make it like [the] mourning of an only [son] and end its [will be] like a day bitter.
11 Tazama, siku zinakuja -asema Bwana Yahwe- wakati nitakapoleta njaa katika nchi, sio njaa ya mkate, wala kiu ya maji, ila kusikia maneno ya Yahwe.
Here! - days [are] coming [the] utterance of [the] Lord Yahweh and I will send a famine in the land not a famine for bread and not a thirst for water that except for hearing [the] words of Yahweh.
12 watatangatanga kutoka bahari hata bahari; watakimbia kutoka kaskazini kwenda magharibi kutafuta neno la Yahwe, lakini hawatalipata.
And people will stagger from sea to sea and from [the] north and to [the] east they will rove about to seek [the] word of Yahweh and not they will find [it].
13 Katika siku hiyo wanawali wazuri na wavulana watazimia kutokana na njaa.
In the day that they will become faint the virgins beautiful and the young men by thirst.
14 Wale waapao kwa dhambi ya Samaria wataanguka na hawatainuka tena.”
Those [who] swear by [the] guilt of Samaria and they will say [by] [the] life of gods your O Dan and [by] [the] life of [the] way of Beer Sheba and they will fall and not they will rise again.
