عَامُوس 9

١ 1 رَأَيْتُ ٱلسَّيِّدَ قَائِمًا عَلَى ٱلْمَذْبَحِ، فَقَالَ: «اِضْرِبْ تَاجَ ٱلْعَمُودِ حَتَّى تَرْجُفَ ٱلْأَعْتَابُ، وَكَسِّرْهَا عَلَى رُؤُوسِ جَمِيعِهِمْ، فَأَقْتُلَ آخِرَهُمْ بِٱلسَّيْفِ. لَا يَهْرُبُ مِنْهُمْ هَارِبٌ وَلَا يُفْلِتُ مِنْهُمْ نَاجٍ.

I have seen the Lord standing by the altar, and He saith: 'Smite the knob, and the thresholds shake, And cut them off by the head — all of them, And their posterity with a sword I do slay, Not flee to them doth the fleer, Nor escape to them doth a fugitive.

٢ 2 إِنْ نَقَبُوا إِلَى ٱلْهَاوِيَةِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ تَأْخُذُهُمْ يَدِي، وَإِنْ صَعِدُوا إِلَى ٱلسَّمَاءِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ أُنْزِلُهُمْ. (Sheol h7585)

If they dig through into sheol, From thence doth My hand take them, And if they go up the heavens, From thence I cause them to come down. (Sheol h7585)

٣ 3 وَإِنِ ٱخْتَبَأُوا فِي رَأْسِ ٱلْكَرْمَلِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ أُفَتِّشُ وَآخُذُهُمْ، وَإِنِ ٱخْتَفَوْا مِنْ أَمَامِ عَيْنَيَّ فِي قَعْرِ ٱلْبَحْرِ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ آمُرُ ٱلْحَيَّةَ فَتَلْدَغُهُمْ.

And if they be hid in the top of Carmel, From thence I search out, and have taken them, And if they be hid from Mine eyes in the bottom of the sea, From thence I command the serpent, And it hath bitten them.

٤ 4 وَإِنْ مَضَوْا فِي ٱلسَّبْيِ أَمَامَ أَعْدَائِهِمْ فَمِنْ هُنَاكَ آمُرُ ٱلسَّيْفَ فَيَقْتُلُهُمْ، وَأَجْعَلُ عَيْنَيَّ عَلَيْهِمْ لِلشَّرِّ لَا لِلْخَيْرِ».

And if they go into captivity before their enemies, From thence I command the sword, And it hath slain them, And I have set Mine eye on them for evil, And not for good.

٥ 5 وَٱلسَّيِّدُ رَبُّ ٱلْجُنُودِ ٱلَّذِي يَمَسُّ ٱلْأَرْضَ فَتَذُوبُ، وَيَنُوحُ ٱلسَّاكِنُونَ فِيهَا، وَتَطْمُو كُلُّهَا كَنَهْرٍ وَتَنْضُبُ كَنِيلِ مِصْرَ.

And [it is] the Lord, Jehovah of Hosts, Who is striking against the land, and it melteth, And mourned have all the inhabitants in it, And come up as a flood hath all of it, And it hath sunk — like the flood of Egypt.

٦ 6 ٱلَّذِي بَنَى فِي ٱلسَّمَاءِ عَلَالِيَهُ وَأَسَّسَ عَلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ قُبَّتَهُ، ٱلَّذِي يَدْعُو مِيَاهَ ٱلْبَحْرِ وَيَصُبُّهَا عَلَى وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ، يَهْوَهُ ٱسْمُهُ.

Who is building in the heavens His upper chambers; As to His troop, Upon earth He hath founded it, Who is calling for the waters of the sea, And poureth them out on the face of the land, Jehovah [is] His name.

٧ 7 «أَلَسْتُمْ لِي كَبَنِي ٱلْكُوشِيِّينَ يَا بَنِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ؟ أَلَمْ أُصْعِدْ إِسْرَائِيلَ مِنْ أَرْضِ مِصْرَ، وَٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ مِنْ كَفْتُورَ، وَٱلْأَرَامِيِّينَ مِنْ قِيرٍ؟

As sons of Cushim are ye not to Me? O sons of Israel — an affirmation of Jehovah. Israel did I not bring up out of the land of Egypt? And the Philistines from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir?

٨ 8 هُوَذَا عَيْنَا ٱلسَّيِّدِ ٱلرَّبِّ عَلَى ٱلْمَمْلَكَةِ ٱلْخَاطِئَةِ، وَأُبِيدُهَا عَنْ وَجْهِ ٱلْأَرْضِ. غَيْرَ أَنِّي لَا أُبِيدُ بَيْتَ يَعْقُوبَ تَمَامًا، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ.

Lo, the eyes of the Lord Jehovah [are] on the sinful kingdom, And I have destroyed it from off the face of the ground, Only, I destroy not utterly the house of Jacob, An affirmation of Jehovah.

٩ 9 لِأَنَّهُ هَأَنَذَا آمُرُ فَأُغَرْبِلُ بَيْتَ إِسْرَائِيلَ بَيْنَ جَمِيعِ ٱلْأُمَمِ كَمَا يُغَرْبَلُ فِي ٱلْغُرْبَالِ، وَحَبَّةٌ لَا تَقَعُ إِلَى ٱلْأَرْضِ.

For lo, I am commanding, And I have shaken among all the nations the house of Israel, As [one] doth shake with a sieve, And there falleth not a grain [to] the earth.

١٠ 10 بِٱلسَّيْفِ يَمُوتُ كُلُّ خَاطِئِي شَعْبِي ٱلْقَائِلِينَ: لَا يَقْتَرِبُ ٱلشَّرُّ، وَلَا يَأْتِي بَيْنَنَا.

By sword die do all sinners of My people, Who are saying, 'Not overtake, or go before, For our sakes, doth evil.'

١١ 11 «فِي ذَلِكَ ٱلْيَوْمِ أُقِيمُ مِظَلَّةَ دَاوُدَ ٱلسَّاقِطَةَ، وَأُحَصِّنُ شُقُوقَهَا، وَأُقِيمُ رَدْمَهَا، وَأَبْنِيهَا كَأَيَّامِ ٱلدَّهْرِ.

In that day I raise the tabernacle of David, that is fallen, And I have repaired their breaches, And its ruins I do raise up, And I have built it up as in days of old.

١٢ 12 لِكَيْ يَرِثُوا بَقِيَّةَ أَدُومَ وَجَمِيعَ ٱلْأُمَمِ ٱلَّذِينَ دُعِيَ ٱسْمِي عَلَيْهِمْ، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، ٱلصَّانِعُ هَذَا.

So that they possess the remnant of Edom, And all the nations on whom My name is called, An affirmation of Jehovah — doer of this.

١٣ 13 هَا أَيَّامٌ تَأْتِي، يَقُولُ ٱلرَّبُّ، يُدْرِكُ ٱلْحَارِثُ ٱلْحَاصِدَ، وَدَائِسُ ٱلْعِنَبِ بَاذِرَ ٱلزَّرْعِ، وَتَقْطُرُ ٱلْجِبَالُ عَصِيرًا، وَتَسِيلُ جَمِيعُ ٱلتِّلَالِ.

Lo, days are coming — an affirmation of Jehovah, And come nigh hath the ploughman to the reaper, And the treader of grapes to the scatterer of seed, And the mountains have dropped juice, And all the hills do melt.

١٤ 14 وَأَرُدُّ سَبْيَ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ فَيَبْنُونَ مُدُنًا خَرِبَةً وَيَسْكُنُونَ، وَيَغْرِسُونَ كُرُومًا وَيَشْرَبُونَ خَمْرَهَا، وَيَصْنَعُونَ جَنَّاتٍ وَيَأْكُلُونَ أَثْمَارَهَا.

And I have turned back [to] the captivity of My people Israel, And they have built desolate cities, and inhabited, And have planted vineyards, and drunk their wine, And made gardens, and eaten their fruit.

١٥ 15 وَأَغْرِسُهُمْ فِي أَرْضِهِمْ، وَلَنْ يُقْلَعُوا بَعْدُ مِنْ أَرْضِهِمِ ٱلَّتِي أَعْطَيْتُهُمْ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ إِلَهُكَ».

And I have planted them on their own ground, And they are not plucked up any more from off their own ground, That I have given to them, said Jehovah thy God!
