Amos 2
1 Nea Awurade se ni: “Moab ayɛ bɔne bebree ama no atra so, ɛno nti, merennan mʼabufuw. Ɔhyew Edomhene nnompe, maa ɛdan nsõ.
The Lord God seith these thingis, On thre grete trespassis of Moab, and on foure, Y schal not conuerte it, for it brente the boonys of the kyng of Idumee til to aische.
2 Mede ogya bɛto Moab mu, na ahyew Keriot aban. Moab bɛhwe ase wɔ huuyɛ, ɔko nteɛteɛmu ne torobɛnto nnyigyei mu.
And Y schal sende fier in to Moab, and it schal deuoure the housis of Carioth; and Moab schal die in sown, in the noise of a trumpe.
3 Mɛsɛe ne hene na makunkum ne mmapɔmma aka ne ho,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.
And Y schal leese a iuge of the myddis therof, and Y schal sle with it alle the princes therof, seith the Lord.
4 Nea Awurade se ni: “Yuda ayɛ bɔne bebree ama no atra so, ɛno nti, merennan mʼabufuw. Wɔapo Awurade mmara no na wɔanni nʼahyɛde so efisɛ atoro anyame no ama wɔafom ɔkwan no, anyame a wɔn nenanom dii akyi no.
The Lord seith these thingis, On thre grete trespassis of Juda, and on foure, Y schal not conuerte hym, for he hath caste awei the lawe of the Lord, and kepte not the comaundementis of hym; for her idols, after whiche the fadris of hem yeden, disseyueden hem.
5 Mede ogya bɛto Yuda mu na ahyew Yerusalem aban.”
And Y schal sende fier in to Juda, and it schal deuoure the housis of Jerusalem.
6 Nea Awurade se ni: “Israel ayɛ bɔne bebree ama no atra so, ɛno nti, merennan mʼabufuw. Wɔtɔn atreneefo de gye dwetɛ, ne ahiafo de gye mpaboa.
The Lord seith these thingis, On thre grete trespassis of Israel, and on foure, Y schal not conuerte hym, for that that he seelde a iust man for siluer, and a pore man for schoon.
7 Wotiatia ahiafo so te sɛnea wɔyɛ fam mfutuma na wɔma atɛntrenee bɔ mmɔborɔfo. Agya ne ne ba ne ɔbea baako da de gu me din kronkron no ho fi.
Whiche al to-foulen the heedis of pore men on the dust of erthe, and bowen awei the weie of meke men; and the sone and his fadir yeden to a damesele, that thei schulden defoule myn hooli name.
8 Wɔdeda afɔremuka biara ho wɔ wɔn awowa ntama so. Wɔn anyame fi mu no, wɔnom nsa a wɔagye sɛ mmaratode.
And thei eeten on clothis leid to wedde bisidis ech auter, and drunken the wyn of dampned men in the hous of her God.
9 “Mesɛee Amorifo no wɔ wɔn anim, ɛwɔ mu sɛ wɔwoware te sɛ sida. Wɔn ho nso yɛ den sɛ odum. Nanso mesɛee nʼaba wɔ ne soro, ne ne ntin wɔ nʼase.
Forsothe Y distriede Ammorrei fro the face of hem, whos hiynesse was the hiynesse of cedris, and he was strong as an ook; and Y al to-brak the fruyt of hym aboue, and the rootis of hym bynethe.
10 Miyii mo fii Misraim, na midii mo anim mfirihyia aduanan wɔ sare so sɛnea mede Amorifo asase bɛma mo.
Y am, that made you to stie fro the lond of Egipt, and ledde you out in desert bi fourti yeer, that ye schulden welde the lond of Ammorrei.
11 Miyiyii mo mmabarima no bi yɛɛ wɔn adiyifo, ne mo mmerante ebinom sɛ Naserefo. Na ɛnte saa ana, Israelfo?” Nea Awurade bisa ni.
And Y reiside of youre sones in to profetis, and Nayareis of youre yonge men. Whether it is not so, ye sones of Israel? seith the Lord.
12 “Nanso momaa Naserefo no nom nsa na mohyɛɛ adiyifo no sɛ wɔnnhyɛ nkɔm.
And ye birliden wyn to Nayareis, and comaundiden to profetis, and seiden, Profecie ye not.
13 “Na afei, mɛdwerɛw mo sɛnea teaseɛnam a aduan ayɛ no ma mia asase no.
Lo! Y schal charke vndur you, as a wayn chargid with hei charkith.
14 Ahoɔharefo rentumi nguan. Ahoɔdenfo rennya ahoɔden, na ɔkofo rennya ne ti nnidi mu.
And fliyt schal perische fro a swift man, and a strong man schal not holde his vertu, and a stalworthe man schal not saue his lijf;
15 Agyantowfo rentumi nnyina nea ogyina. Asraafo ahoɔharefo rentumi nguan, na ɔpɔnkɔsotefo rentumi mpere ne nkwa.
and he that holdith a bowe schal not stonde, and a swift man schal not be sauyd by hise feet; and the stiere of an hors schal not saue his lijf,
16 Mpo akofo akokodurufo de adagyaw beguan wɔ saa da no,” sɛnea Awurade se ni.
and a stronge man of herte schal fle nakid among stronge men in that dai, seith the Lord.
