Amos 9

1 Mo rí Olúwa, ó dúró ní ẹ̀bá pẹpẹ, ó sì wí pé: “Lu orí àwọn àtẹ́rígbà ìlẹ̀kùn kí àwọn òpó kí ó lè mì fọ́ wọn sí orí àwọn gbogbo ènìyàn àwọn tí ó ṣẹ́kù ni èmi yóò fi idà pa, ẹni tí ó sálọ nínú wọn kí yóò sá gbé, ẹni ti ó sá àsálà nínú wọn kí yóò gbàlà.

I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake. Break them in pieces on the head of all of them. I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will flee away. Not one of them will escape.

2 Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ wa ilẹ̀ lọ sí ipò òkú, láti ibẹ̀ ni ọwọ́ mi yóò ti tẹ̀ wọ́n. Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ gun òkè ọ̀run lọ, láti ibẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti mú wọn sọ̀kalẹ̀. (Sheol h7585)

Though they dig into Sheol (Sheol h7585), there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down.

3 Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ fi ara wọn pamọ́ ni orí òkè Karmeli, èmi yóò wá wọn rí, Èmi yóò si mú wọn kúrò níbẹ̀. Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ fi ara pamọ́ fún mi sí ìsàlẹ̀ Òkun, láti ibẹ̀ ni Èmi yóò ti pàṣẹ fún ejò kí ó bù wọ́n ṣán.

Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.

4 Bí wọ́n tilẹ̀ lọ sí ìgbèkùn ní iwájú àwọn ọ̀tá wọn láti ibẹ̀ ni èmi yóò ti pàṣẹ fún idà kí ó ṣá wọn pa. “Èmi yóò sì tẹ ojú mi mọ́ wọn fún ìbí, kì í sì í ṣe fún rere.”

Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.

5 Olúwa, Olúwa àwọn ọmọ-ogun, ẹni ti ó fi ọwọ́ kan ilẹ̀ náà tí ó sì yọ́, tí àwọn olùgbé inú rẹ̀ yóò sì ṣọ̀fọ̀; gbogbo orílẹ̀-èdè yóò si ru sókè bí ríru odò Naili tiwọn yóò sì tẹ̀rì bí odò Ejibiti.

For the Lord, the GOD of Armies, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.

6 Òun ni ẹni tí ó kọ́ ìtẹ́ rẹ̀ nínú àwọn ọ̀run ti ó sì fi ìpìlẹ̀ rẹ̀ sọlẹ̀ ní ilé ayé, Ẹni ti ó pe àwọn omi Òkun ti ó sì tú wọn jáde si orí ilé ayé Olúwa ni orúkọ rẹ̀.

It is he who builds his rooms in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth—the LORD is his name.

7 “Àbá ẹ̀yin ọmọ Israẹli kò ha dàbí àwọn ọmọ Kuṣi sí mi?” ni Olúwa wí. “Èmi kò ha ti mú Israẹli gòkè láti ilẹ̀ Ejibiti jáde wá àti àwọn Filistini láti ilẹ̀ Kafitori àti àwọn ará Aramu láti Kiri?

Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says the LORD. “Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

8 “Dájúdájú, ojú Olúwa Olódùmarè ń bẹ̀ lára ilẹ̀ ọba tó kún fún ẹ̀ṣẹ̀. Èmi yóò pa á run kúrò lórí ilẹ̀. Síbẹ̀, Èmi kò nípa ilé Jakọbu run pátápátá,” ni Olúwa wí.

Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” says the LORD.

9 “Nítorí Èmi yóò pàṣẹ, Èmi yóò sì mi ilé Israẹli ní àárín àwọn orílẹ̀-èdè bí a ti ń jọ nǹkan nínú ajọ̀ tí hóró kín ń kín kì yóò bọ́ sórí ilẹ̀.

“For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth.

10 Gbogbo àwọn ẹlẹ́ṣẹ̀ láàrín àwọn ènìyàn mi ni yóò ti ipa idà kú gbogbo àwọn ti ń wí pé, ‘Aburú kì yóò lé wa bá, bẹ́ẹ̀ ni kì yóò ká wa mọ́.’

All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil will not overtake nor meet us.’

11 “Ní ọjọ́ náà ní Èmi yóò gbé àgọ́ Dafidi tí ó wó ró, Èmi yóò dí odi rẹ̀ tí ó ya, Èmi yóò sì gbé ahoro rẹ̀ sókè, Èmi yóò sì kọ bí ti ọjọ́ ìgbàanì,

In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old,

12 kí wọn le jogún ìyókù Edomu àti gbogbo àwọn kèfèrí, ti a ń pè nípa orúkọ mi,” ni Olúwa, ẹni tí yóò ṣe nǹkan wọ̀nyí wí.

that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” says the LORD who does this.

13 “Ọjọ́ náà ń bọ,” ni Olúwa wí, “tí ẹni tí ń tulẹ̀ yóò lé ẹni tí ń kórè bá. Tí ẹni tí ń fún èso àjàrà yóò lé ẹni tí ń gbìn bá. Àwọn òkè ńlá yóò sì kán ọtí wáìnì sílẹ̀, tí yóò sì sàn láti ara àwọn òkè kéékèèké.

“Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.

14 Èmi yóò si tún mú ìgbèkùn Israẹli ènìyàn mi padà bọ̀. “Wọn yóò sì kọ́ ahoro ìlú, wọn yóò sì máa gbé inú wọn. Wọn yóò sì gbin ọgbà àjàrà, wọn yóò sì mu ọtí wáìnì wọn wọn yóò sì ṣe ọgbà pẹ̀lú, wọn yóò sì jẹ èso inú wọn.

I will bring my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. They shall also make gardens, and eat their fruit.

15 Èmi yóò gbin Israẹli sí orí ilẹ̀ rẹ̀. A kì yóò sì fà wọn tu mọ́ láéláé kúrò ni orí ilẹ̀ ti mo fi fún wọn,” ni Olúwa Ọlọ́run rẹ wí.

I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them,” says the LORD your God.
