< Amos 7 >

1 Fweny mane Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto okelona ema: Ne aneno rumbi mar det bonyo monywol e chakruok mar opon ka cham mar ruoth osekaa.
Thus has the Lord God showed me; and, behold, a swarm of locusts coming from the east; and, behold, one caterpillar, king Gog.
2 Kane bonyogo osechamo gimoro amora mangʼich e piny, ne aywak kawacho niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ngʼwon-ne jogi ma joka Jakobo. Ere kaka ginyalo tony, to ginok kama?”
And it came to pass when he had finished devouring the grass of the land, that I said, Lord God, be merciful; who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number.
3 Omiyo chuny Jehova Nyasaye nolendo mowacho niya, “Gima kamano ok bi timore.”
Repent, O Lord, for this. And this shall not be, says the Lord.
4 Fweny machielo mane Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto okelona ema: Ne aneno kooro mach maduongʼ mondo owangʼ nam manie bwo piny, kendo otiek gik moko duto manie piny.
Thus has the Lord showed me; and, behold, the Lord called for judgement by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and devoured the Lord's portion.
5 Eka ne aywak niya, “Yaye Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ngʼuonne jogi ma joka Jakobo. Ere kaka ginyalo tony, to ginok kama?”
Then I said, O Lord, cease, I pray you: who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number. Repent, O Lord, for this.
6 Omiyo chuny Jehova Nyasaye nolendo. Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto nowacho niya, “Mae bende ok bi timore.”
This also shall not be, says the Lord.
7 Fweny moro machielo mane okelona ema: Ne aneno Ruoth Nyasaye kochungʼ e kor ot kotingʼo tol mar rapim mipimogo kor ot e lwete mondo one ane ka kor ot oriere tir.
Thus the Lord showed me; and behold, he stood upon a wall of adamant, and in his hand [was] an adamant.
8 Kendo Jehova Nyasaye nopenja niya, “Amos, en angʼo mineno?” Ne adwoke niya, “Aneno tol mar rapim mipimogo kor ot.” Eka Ruoth Nyasaye nowachona niya, “Apimo chuny joga Israel gi rapim kendo ok anachak awenegi.
And the Lord said to me, What see you, Amos? And I said, An adamant. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I appoint an adamant in the midst of my people Israel: I will not pass by them any more.
9 “Kuonde lemo duto mag joka Isaka ibiro kethi kendo kuonde maler duto mag Israel ibiro kethi; kendo anabi gi ligangla mondo aked gi dhood Jeroboam.”
And the joyful altars shall be abolished, and the sacrifices of Israel shall be set aside; and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
10 Eka Amazia jadolo mar Bethel nooro wach ne Jeroboam ma ruodh Israel niya, “Amos, koro piem kodi ei Israel, kendo wechene biro ketho piny.
Then Amasias the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos is forming conspiracies against you in the midst of the house of Israel: the land will be utterly unable to bear all his words.
11 Amos wacho niya, “‘Jeroboam ibiro nego gi ligangla kendo nyithind Israel ibiro dar e pinygi, mi tergi e twech e piny mabor.’”
For thus says Amos, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall be led away captive from his land.
12 Eka Amazia nowachone Amos niya, “Dhi kucha, jakoroni! Dhiyo e piny jo-Juda mondo ikor weche kuno eka iyudgo kaka dichiem.
And Amasias said to Amos, Go, seer, remove you into the land of Juda, and live there, and you shall prophesy there:
13 Kik ichak ikor wach moro amora e Bethel-ka nikech ma en kama ler mar lemo mar ruoth kod hekalu mar pinyruoth.”
but you shall no longer prophesy at Bethel: for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is the royal house.
14 Eka Amos nodwoko Amazia niya, “An ok an janabi, to bende ok an kata nyathi janabi. Anto an mana jakwath kendo jarit ngʼowu.
And Amos answered, and said to Amasias, I was not a prophet, nor the son of a prophet; but I was a herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruits.
15 To Jehova Nyasaye ema noluonga ka akwayo rombe, mine owachona ni, ‘Dhiyo mondo ikor wach ne joga Israel.’
And the Lord took me from the sheep, and the Lord said to me, Go, and prophesy to my people Israel.
16 Kuom mano, koro winj wach Jehova Nyasaye. Iwacho niya, “‘Kik ikor wach kuom jo-Israel, kendo ni kik iwach weche manono kuom joka Isaka.’
And now hear the word of the Lord: You say, Prophesy not to Israel, and raise not a tumult against the house of Jacob.
17 “‘Kuom mano, koro winji gima Jehova Nyasaye wacho: “‘Kochakore sani to chiegi biro bedo jachode e dala mar Samaria, kendo yawuoti kod nyigi, to koro ibiro negi gi ligangla. Lopi ibiro kawo kendo pogi, in iwuon, to initho e piny moro nono mabor gi ka, kendo jo-Israel nodar, mi tergi e twech!’”
Therefore thus says the Lord; Your wife shall be a harlot in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be measured with the line; and you shall die in an unclean land; and Israel shall be led captive out of his land. Thus has the Lord God showed me.
