< عَامُوس 1 >

أَقْوَالُ عَامُوسَ ٱلَّذِي كَانَ بَيْنَ ٱلرُّعَاةِ مِنْ تَقُوعَ ٱلَّتِي رَآهَا عَنْ إِسْرَائِيلَ، فِي أَيَّامِ عُزِّيَّا مَلِكِ يَهُوذَا، وَفِي أَيَّامِ يَرُبْعَامَ بْنِ يُوآشَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، قَبْلَ ٱلزَّلْزَلَةِ بِسَنَتَيْنِ. ١ 1
The words of Amos, who was among herdsmen of Thecua: which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Ozias king of Juda, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joas king of Israel two years before the earthquake.
فَقَالَ: «إِنَّ ٱلرَّبَّ يُزَمْجِرُ مِنْ صِهْيَوْنَ، وَيُعْطِي صَوْتَهُ مِنْ أُورُشَلِيمَ، فَتَنُوحُ مَرَاعِي ٱلرُّعَاةِ وَيَيْبَسُ رَأْسُ ٱلْكَرْمَلِ». ٢ 2
And he said: The Lord will roar from Sion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem: and the beautiful places of the shepherds have mourned, and the top of Carmel is withered.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ دِمَشْقَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ دَاسُوا جِلْعَادَ بِنَوَارِجَ مِنْ حَدِيدٍ. ٣ 3
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Damascus, and for four I will not convert it: because they have thrashed Galaad with iron wains.
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى بَيْتِ حَزَائِيلَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَ بَنْهَدَدَ. ٤ 4
And I will send a fire into the house of Azael, and it shall devour the houses of Benadad.
وَأُكَسِّرُ مِغْلَاقَ دِمَشْقَ، وَأَقْطَعُ ٱلسَّاكِنَ مِنْ بُقْعَةِ آوَنَ، وَمَاسِكَ ٱلْقَضِيبِ مِنْ بَيْتِ عَدْنٍ، وَيُسْبَى شَعْبُ أَرَامَ إِلَى قِيرَ، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٥ 5
And I will break the bar of Damascus: and I will cut off the inhabitants from the plain of the idol, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of pleasure: and the people of Syria shall be carried away to Cyrene, saith the Lord.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ غَزَّةَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ سَبَوْا سَبْيًا كَامِلًا لِكَىْ يُسَلِّمُوهُ إِلَى أَدُومَ. ٦ 6
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Gaza, and for four I will not convert it: because they have carried away a perfect captivity to shut them up in Edom.
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى سُورِ غَزَّةَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَهَا. ٧ 7
And I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
وَأَقْطَعُ ٱلسَّاكِنَ مِنْ أَشْدُودَ، وَمَاسِكَ ٱلْقَضِيبِ مِنْ أَشْقَلُونَ، وَأَرُدُّ يَدِي عَلَى عَقْرُونَ، فَتَهْلِكُ بَقِيَّةُ ٱلْفِلِسْطِينِيِّينَ، قَالَ ٱلسَّيِّدُ ٱلرَّبُّ». ٨ 8
And I will cut off the inhabitant from Azotus, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ascalon: and I will turn my hand against Accaron, and the rest of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord God.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ صُورَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ سَلَّمُوا سَبْيًا كَامِلًا إِلَى أَدُومَ، وَلَمْ يَذْكُرُوا عَهْدَ ٱلْإِخْوَةِ. ٩ 9
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Tyre, and for four I will not convert it: because they have shut up an entire captivity in Edom, and have not remembered the covenant of brethren.
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى سُورِ صُورَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَهَا». ١٠ 10
And I will send a fire upon the wall of Tyre, and it shall devour the houses thereof.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ أَدُومَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ، لِأَنَّهُ تَبِعَ بِٱلسَّيْفِ أَخَاهُ، وَأَفْسَدَ مَرَاحِمَهُ، وَغضَبُهُ إِلَى ٱلدَّهْرِ يَفْتَرِسُ، وَسَخَطُهُ يَحْفَظُهُ إِلَى ٱلْأَبَدِ. ١١ 11
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Edom, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath pursued his brother with the sword, and hath cast off all pity, and hath carried on his fury, and hath kept his wrath to the end.
فَأُرْسِلُ نَارًا عَلَى تَيْمَانَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَ بُصْرَةَ». ١٢ 12
I will send a fire into Theman: and it shall devour the houses of Bosra.
هَكَذَا قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ: «مِنْ أَجْلِ ذُنُوبِ بَنِي عَمُّونَ ٱلثَّلَاثَةِ وَٱلْأَرْبَعَةِ لَا أَرْجِعُ عَنْهُ، لِأَنَّهُمْ شَقُّوا حَوَامِلَ جِلْعَادَ لِكَيْ يُوَسِّعُوا تُخُومَهُمْ. ١٣ 13
Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of the children of Ammon, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath ripped up the women with child of Galaad to enlarge his border.
فَأُضْرِمُ نَارًا عَلَى سُورِ رَبَّةَ فَتَأْكُلُ قُصُورَهَا. بِجَلَبَةٍ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلْقِتَالِ، بِنَوْءٍ فِي يَوْمِ ٱلزَّوْبَعَةِ. ١٤ 14
And I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabba: and it shall devour the houses thereof with shouting in the day of battle, and with a whirlwind in the day of trouble.
وَيَمْضِي مَلِكُهُمْ إِلَى ٱلسَّبْيِ هُوَ وَرُؤَسَاؤُهُ جَمِيعًا، قَالَ ٱلرَّبُّ». ١٥ 15
And Melchom shall go into captivity, both he, and his princes together, saith the Lord.
