< عَامُوس 2 >
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ مُوآبَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ أَحْرَقُوا عِظَامَ مَلِكِ أَدُومَ كِلْسًا. | ١ 1 |
The LORD says: “For three transgressions of Moab, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment, because he burnt the bones of the king of Edom into lime;
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى مُوآبَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَ قَرْيُوتَ، وَيَمُوتُ مُوآبُ بِضَجِيجٍ، بِجَلَبَةٍ، بِصَوْتِ ٱلْبُوقِ. | ٢ 2 |
but I will send a fire on Moab, and it will devour the palaces of Kerioth; and Moab will die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the shofar;
وَأَقْطَعُ ٱلْقَاضِيَ مِنْ وَسَطِهَا، وَأَقْتُلُ جَمِيعَ رُؤَسَائِهَا مَعَهُ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ٣ 3 |
and I will cut off the judge from amongst them, and will kill all its princes with him,” says the LORD.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ يَهُوذَا ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ رَفَضُوا نَامُوسَ ٱللهِ وَلَمْ يَحْفَظُوا فَرَائِضَهُ، وَأَضَلَّتْهُمْ أَكَاذِيبُهُمُ ٱلَّتِي سَارَ آبَاؤُهُمْ وَرَاءَهَا. | ٤ 4 |
The LORD says: “For three transgressions of Judah, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment, because they have rejected the LORD’s law, and have not kept his statutes, and their lies have led them astray, after which their fathers walked;
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى يَهُوذَا فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَ أُورُشَلِيمَ». | ٥ 5 |
but I will send a fire on Judah, and it will devour the palaces of Jerusalem.”
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ إِسْرَائِيلَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ بَاعُوا ٱلْبَارَّ بِٱلْفِضَّةِ، وَٱلْبَائِسَ لِأَجْلِ نَعْلَيْنِ. | ٦ 6 |
The LORD says: “For three transgressions of Israel, yes, for four, I will not turn away its punishment, because they have sold the righteous for silver, and the needy for a pair of sandals;
ٱلَّذِينَ يَتَهَمَّمُونَ تُرَابَ ٱلْأَرْضِ عَلَى رُؤُوسِ ٱلْمَسَاكِينِ، وَيَصُدُّونَ سَبِيلَ ٱلْبَائِسِينَ، وَيَذْهَبُ رَجُلٌ وَأَبُوهُ إِلَى صَبِيَّةٍ وَاحِدَةٍ حَتَّى يُدَنِّسُوا ٱسْمَ قُدْسِي. | ٧ 7 |
They trample the heads of the poor into the dust of the earth and deny justice to the oppressed. A man and his father use the same maiden, to profane my holy name.
وَيَتَمَدَّدُونَ عَلَى ثِيَابٍ مَرْهُونَةٍ بِجَانِبِ كُلِّ مَذْبَحٍ، وَيَشْرَبُونَ خَمْرَ ٱلْمُغَرَّمِينَ فِي بَيْتِ آلِهَتِهِمْ. | ٨ 8 |
They lay themselves down beside every altar on clothes taken in pledge. In the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
«وَأَنَا قَدْ أَبَدْتُ مِنْ أَمَامِهِمِ ٱلْأَمُورِيَّ ٱلَّذِي قَامَتُهُ مِثْلُ قَامَةِ ٱلْأَرْزِ، وَهُوَ قَوِيٌّ كَٱلْبَلُّوطِ. أَبَدْتُ ثَمَرَهُ مِنْ فَوْقُ، وَأُصُولَهُ مِنْ تَحْتُ. | ٩ 9 |
Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
وَأَنَا أَصْعَدْتُكُمْ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ وَسِرْتُ بِكُمْ فِي ٱلْبَرِّيَّةِ أَرْبَعِينَ سَنَةً لِتَرِثُوا أَرْضَ ٱلْأَمُورِيِّ. | ١٠ 10 |
Also I brought you up out of the land of Egypt and led you forty years in the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
وَأَقَمْتُ مِنْ بَنِيكُمْ أَنْبِيَاءَ، وَمِنْ فِتْيَانِكُمْ نَذِيرِينَ. أَلَيْسَ هَكَذَا يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ | ١١ 11 |
I raised up some of your sons for prophets, and some of your young men for Nazirites. Isn’t this true, you children of Israel?” says the LORD.
لَكِنَّكُمْ سَقَيْتُمُ ٱلنَّذِيرِينَ خَمْرًا، وَأَوْصَيْتُمُ ٱلْأَنْبِيَاءَ قَائِلِينَ: لَا تَتَنَبَّأُوا. | ١٢ 12 |
“But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink, and commanded the prophets, saying, ‘Don’t prophesy!’
«هَأَنَذَا أَضْغَطُ مَا تَحْتَكُمْ كَمَا تَضْغَطُ ٱلْعَجَلَةُ ٱلْمَلْآنَةُ حِزَمًا. | ١٣ 13 |
Behold, I will crush you in your place, as a cart crushes that is full of grain.
وَيَبِيدُ ٱلْمَنَاصُ عَنِ ٱلسَّرِيعِ، وَٱلْقَوِيُّ لَا يُشَدِّدُ قُوَّتَهُ، وَٱلْبَطَلُ لَا يُنَجِّي نَفْسَهُ، | ١٤ 14 |
Flight will perish from the swift. The strong won’t strengthen his force. The mighty won’t deliver himself.
وَمَاسِكُ ٱلْقَوْسِ لَا يَثْبُتُ، وَسَرِيعُ ٱلرِّجْلَيْنِ لَا يَنْجُو، وَرَاكِبُ ٱلْخَيْلِ لَا يُنَجِّي نَفْسَهُ. | ١٥ 15 |
He who handles the bow won’t stand. He who is swift of foot won’t escape. He who rides the horse won’t deliver himself.
وَٱلْقَوِيُّ ٱلْقَلْبِ بَيْنَ ٱلْأَبْطَالِ يَهْرُبُ عُرْيَانًا فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ». | ١٦ 16 |
He who is courageous amongst the mighty will flee away naked on that day,” says the LORD.
