< عَامُوس 8 >

هَكَذَا أَرَانِي ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ وَإِذَا سَلَّةٌ لِلْقِطَافِ. ١ 1
This is what the LORD showed me: And look, a basket of summer fruit.
فَقَالَ: «مَاذَا أَنْتَ رَاءٍ يَا عَامُوسُ؟» فَقُلْتُ: «سَلَّةً لِلْقِطَافِ». فَقَالَ لِي ٱلرَّبُّ: «قَدْ أَتَتِ ٱلنِّهَايَةُ عَلَى شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. لَا أَعُودُ أَصْفَحُ لَهُ بَعْدُ. ٢ 2
He said, "Amos, what do you see?" I said, "A basket of summer fruit." Then the LORD said to me, "The end has come on my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
فَتَصِيرُ أَغَانِي ٱلْقَصْرِ وَلَاوِلَ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٱلْجُثَثُ كَثِيرَةٌ يَطْرَحُونَهَا فِي كُلِّ مَوْضِعٍ بِٱلسُّكُوتِ». ٣ 3
The songs of the temple will be wailings in that day," says the LORD. "The dead bodies will be many. In every place they will throw them out with silence.
اِسْمَعُوا هَذَا أَيُّهَا ٱلْمُتَهَمِّمُونَ ٱلْمَسَاكِينَ لِكَيْ تُبِيدُوا بَائِسِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، ٤ 4
Hear this, you who trample the needy, and destroy the poor of the land,
قَائِلِينَ: «مَتَى يَمْضِي رَأْسُ ٱلشَّهْرِ لِنَبِيعَ قَمْحًا، وَٱلسَّبْتُ لِنَعْرِضَ حِنْطَةً؟ لِنُصَغِّرَ ٱلْإِيفَةَ، وَنُكَبِّرَ ٱلشَّاقِلَ، وَنُعَوِّجَ مَوَازِينَ ٱلْغِشِّ. ٥ 5
saying, 'When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell grain? And the Sabbath, that we may market wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel large, and dealing falsely with balances of deceit;
لِنَشْتَرِيَ ٱلضُّعَفَاءَ بِفِضَّةٍ، وَٱلْبَائِسَ بِنَعْلَيْنِ، وَنَبِيعَ نُفَايَةَ ٱلْقَمْحِ». ٦ 6
that we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes, and sell the sweepings with the wheat?'"
قَدْ أَقْسَمَ ٱلرَّبُّ بِفَخْرِ يَعْقُوبَ: «إِنِّي لَنْ أَنْسَى إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ جَمِيعَ أَعْمَالِهِمْ. ٧ 7
The LORD has sworn by the pride of Jacob, "Surely I will never forget any of their works.
أَلَيْسَ مِنْ أَجْلِ هَذَا تَرْتَعِدُ ٱلْأَرْضُ، وَيَنُوحُ كُلُّ سَاكِنٍ فِيهَا، وَتَطْمُو كُلُّهَا كَنَهْرٍ، وَتَفِيضُ وَتَنْضُبُ كَنِيلِ مِصْرَ؟ ٨ 8
Won't the land tremble for this, and everyone mourn who dwells in it? Yes, it will rise up wholly like the River; and it will be stirred up and sink again, like the River of Egypt.
وَيَكُونُ فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أَنِّي أُغَيِّبُ ٱلشَّمْسَ فِي ٱلظُّهْرِ، وَأُقْتِمُ ٱلْأَرْضَ فِي يَوْمِ نُورٍ، ٩ 9
It will happen in that day," says the LORD, "that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day.
وَأُحَوِّلُ أَعْيَادَكُمْ نَوْحًا، وَجَمِيعَ أَغَانِيكُمْ مَرَاثِيَ، وَأُصْعِدُ عَلَى كُلِّ ٱلْأَحْقَاءِ مِسْحًا، وَعَلَى كُلِّ رَأْسٍ قَرَعَةً، وَأَجْعَلُهَا كَمَنَاحَةِ ٱلْوَحِيدِ وَآخِرَهَا يَوْمًا مُرًّا! ١٠ 10
I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will make you wear sackcloth on all your bodies, and baldness on every head. I will make it like the mourning for an only son, and its end like a bitter day.
«هُوَذَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ، أُرْسِلُ جُوعًا فِي ٱلْأَرْضِ، لَا جُوعًا لِلْخُبْزِ، وَلَا عَطَشًا لِلْمَاءِ، بَلْ لِٱسْتِمَاعِ كَلِمَاتِ ٱلرَّبِّ. ١١ 11
Look, the days come," says the LORD, "that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the word of the LORD.
فَيَجُولُونَ مِنْ بَحْرٍ إِلَى بَحْرٍ، وَمِنَ ٱلشِّمَالِ إِلَى ٱلْمَشْرِقِ، يَتَطَوَّحُونَ لِيَطْلُبُوا كَلِمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ فَلَا يَجِدُونَهَا. ١٢ 12
They will wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east; they will run back and forth to seek the word of the LORD, and will not find it.
فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ تَذْبُلُ بِٱلْعَطَشِ ٱلْعَذَارَى ٱلْجَمِيلَاتُ وَٱلْفِتْيَانُ، ١٣ 13
In that day the beautiful virgins and the young men will faint for thirst.
ٱلَّذِينَ يَحْلِفُونَ بِذَنْبِ ٱلسَّامِرَةِ، وَيَقُولُونَ: حَيٌّ إِلَهُكَ يَا دَانُ، وَحَيَّةٌ طَرِيقَةُ بِئْرِ سَبْعٍ. فَيَسْقُطُونَ وَلَا يَقُومُونَ بَعْدُ». ١٤ 14
Those who swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, 'As your god, Dan, lives;' and, 'As the way of Beersheba lives;' they will fall, and never rise up again."
