Amos 7
1 Èyí ni ohun tí Olúwa Olódùmarè fihàn mí: Ó pèsè ọwọ́ eṣú lẹ́yìn ìgbà tí a kórè ìpín ọba, ní ìgbà ti èso ẹ̀ẹ̀kejì ń jáde bọ̀.
Thus Lord YHWH has showed me, and behold, He is forming locusts at the beginning of the ascending of the latter growth, and behold, the latter growth [is] after the mowings of the king [[or King Gog]];
2 Nígbà tí wọ́n jẹ koríko ilẹ̀ náà mọ́ féfé nígbà náà ni mo gbé ohùn mi sókè pé, “Olúwa Olódùmarè, mo bẹ̀ ọ́, dáríjì! Báwo ni Jakọbu yóò ha ṣe lè dìde? Òun kéré jọjọ!”
and it has come to pass, when it has finished to consume the herb of the land, that I say, “Lord YHWH, please forgive, How does Jacob arise—for he [is] small?”
3 Olúwa ronúpìwàdà nípa èyí. “Èyí kò ni ṣẹlẹ̀,” ni Olúwa wí.
YHWH has relented of this, “It will not be,” said YHWH.
4 Èyí ni ohun ti Olúwa Olódùmarè fihàn mí: Olúwa Olódùmarè ń pè fún ìdájọ́ pẹ̀lú iná; ó jó ọ̀gbun ńlá rún, ó sì jẹ ilẹ̀ run.
Thus has Lord YHWH showed me, and behold, Lord YHWH is calling to contend by the fire, and it consumes the great deep, indeed, it has consumed the portion, and I say,
5 Nígbà náà ni mo gbé ohùn mi sókè pé, “Olúwa Olódùmarè jọ̀wọ́ má ṣe ṣe é! Báwo ni Jakọbu yóò ha ṣe lè dìde? Òun kéré jọjọ!”
“Lord YHWH, please cease, How does Jacob arise—for he [is] small?”
6 Olúwa ronúpìwàdà nípa èyí. “Èyí náà kò ní ṣẹlẹ̀,” ni Olúwa Olódùmarè wí.
YHWH has relented of this, “It also will not be,” said Lord YHWH.
7 Èyí ni ohun tí ó fihàn mí: Olúwa dúró ní ẹ̀gbẹ́ odi ti a fi okùn ìwọ̀n mọ́, ti òun ti okùn ìwọ̀n tí ó rún ni ọwọ́ rẹ̀.
Thus has He showed me, and behold, the Lord is standing by a wall [made according to] a plumb-line, and in His hand a plumb-line;
8 Olúwa sì bi mi pé, “Amosi, kí ni ìwọ rí?” Mo dáhùn pé, “Okùn ìwọ̀n.” Nígbà náà ni Olúwa wí pé, “Wò ó, Èmí ń gbé okùn ìwọ̀n kalẹ̀ láàrín àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn mi; Èmi kì yóò sì tún kọjá lọ́dọ̀ wọn mọ́.
and YHWH says to me, “What are you seeing, Amos?” And I say, “A plumb-line”; and the Lord says: “Behold, I am setting a plumb-line in the midst of My people Israel, I no longer pass over to it.
9 “Ibi gíga Isaaki wọ̀n-ọn-nì yóò sì di ahoro àti ibi mímọ Israẹli wọ̀n-ọn-nì yóò di ahoro. Èmi yóò sì fi idà dìde sí ilé Jeroboamu.”
And high places of Isaac have been desolated, And sanctuaries of Israel are dried up, And I have risen against the house of Jeroboam with a sword.”
10 Nígbà náà Amasiah àlùfáà Beteli ránṣẹ́ sí Jeroboamu ọba Israẹli, wí pé: “Amosi ti dìde láti dìtẹ̀ sí ọ ni àárín gbùngbùn Israẹli. Ilẹ̀ kò sì le gba gbogbo ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ̀.
And Amaziah priest of Beth-El sends to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words,
11 Nítorí èyí ni ohun ti Amosi ń sọ: “‘Jeroboamu yóò ti ipa idà kú, lóòtítọ́ Israẹli yóò lọ sí ìgbèkùn, jìnnà kúrò ní ilẹ̀ ìní wọn.’”
for thus said Amos: Jeroboam dies by sword, And Israel certainly removes from off its land.”
12 Nígbà náà ni Amasiah sọ fún Amosi pé, “Lọ jáde, ìwọ aríran! Padà sí ilẹ̀ àwọn Juda. Kí o máa jẹun rẹ níbẹ̀, kí o sì máa sọtẹ́lẹ̀ rẹ̀ níbẹ̀.
And Amaziah says to Amos, “Seer, go, flee to the land of Judah for yourself, and eat bread there, and there you prophesy;
13 Má ṣe sọtẹ́lẹ̀ mọ ni Beteli nítorí ibi mímọ́ ọba ni àti ibi tẹmpili ìjọba rẹ̀.”
and no longer prophesy [at] Beth-El anymore, for it [is] the king’s sanctuary, and it [is] the royal house.”
14 Amosi dá Amasiah lóhùn pé, “Èmi kì í ṣe wòlíì tàbí àwọn ọmọ wòlíì, ṣùgbọ́n mo jẹ́ olùṣọ́-àgùntàn, mo sì ń ṣe ìtọ́jú igi ọ̀pọ̀tọ́ sikamore.
And Amos answers and says to Amaziah, “I [am] no prophet, nor [am] I a prophet’s son, but I [am] a herdsman, and a cultivator of sycamores,
15 Ṣùgbọ́n Olúwa mu mi bí mo ti ń tọ́ agbo ẹran lẹ́yìn, ó sì wí fun mi pé, ‘Lọ sọtẹ́lẹ̀ fun àwọn Israẹli ènìyàn mi.’
and YHWH takes me from after the flock, and YHWH says to me, Go, prophesy to My people Israel.
16 Nítorí náà nísinsin yìí, gbọ́ ọ̀rọ̀ Olúwa. Ìwọ wí pé, “‘Má ṣe sọ àsọtẹ́lẹ̀ sí Israẹli, má sì ṣe wàásù sí ilé Isaaki.’
And now, hear a word of YHWH: You are saying, Do not prophesy against Israel, nor drop [anything] against the house of Isaac,
17 “Nítorí náà, èyí ni ohun ti Olúwa wí: “‘Ìyàwó rẹ yóò di panṣágà ni ìlú, àwọn ọmọ ọkùnrin àti obìnrin rẹ yóò ti ipa idà ṣubú. A ó fi okùn wọn ilẹ̀ rẹ, a ó sì pín in àti ìwọ pẹ̀lú yóò kú ni ilẹ̀ àìmọ́. Israẹli yóò sì lọ sí ìgbèkùn, kúrò ní ilẹ̀ ìní wọn.’”
therefore, thus said YHWH: Your wife goes whoring in the city, And your sons and your daughters fall by sword, And your land is apportioned by line, And you die on an unclean land, And Israel certainly removes from off its land.”
