< Amos 9 >

1 I saw Jehovah standing beside the altar, and he said, "Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake; and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will kill the last of them with the sword: there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.
Vidjeh Gospoda gdje stoji kraj žrtvenika i govori: “Udari u glavice stupova, neka se pragovi zatresu! Svima ću satrti glave, što ostane, pod mač ću udariti. Nijedan neće uteći, nitko se neće spasiti.
2 Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. (Sheol h7585)
Zariju li se i u Podzemlje, iščupat će ih ruka moja. Popnu li se i na nebo, odande ću ih skinuti. (Sheol h7585)
3 Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out there; and though they be hid from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.
Ako se sakriju i navrh Karmela, naći ću ih i pohvatati. Ako se od mog pogleda na dno morsko skriju, zapovjedit ću Zmaju da ih proždre.
4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for disaster, and not for good.
Ako i u izgnanstvo odu pred neprijateljem, naredit ću maču da ih sasiječe; upravit ću oči na njih, ali na nesreću, ne na dobro.”
5 For Jehovah of hosts is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.
Jahve, Gospod nad Vojskama... on dodirne zemlju i ona se potrese, svi joj stanovnici protuže; diže se sva poput Nila i spušta k'o Rijeka egipatska.
6 It is he who builds his upper chamber in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth; Jehovah is his name.
On sazda sebi prijesto na nebesima, i svod svoj na zemlji osnova; on poziva morske vode i lijeva ih zemlji preko lica - Jahve mu je ime.
7 Are you not like the people of Ethiopia to me, children of Israel?" says Jehovah. "Haven't I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Arameans from Kir?
“Sinovi Izraelovi, niste li za me kao i Kušani” - riječ je Jahvina. “Ne izvedoh li ja Izraela iz zemlje egipatske, kao Filistejce iz Kaftora i Aramejce iz Kira?”
8 Look, the eyes of Jehovah are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth; except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob," says Jehovah.
Gle, oči Jahve Gospoda uprte su na grešno kraljevstvo, izbrisat će ga s lica zemlje. “Ipak neću sasvim zatrti dom Jakovljev” - riječ je Jahvina.
9 "For, look, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations, as one sifts with a sieve, but not even a pebble will fall to the ground.
“Jer, gle, zapovijed ću dati i rastresti dom Izraelov među sve narode, k'o što se trese žito u rešetu, da ni zrnce na zemlju ne padne.
10 All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, 'Evil won't overtake nor meet us.'
Svi grešnici naroda moga od mača će pasti, svi koji kažu: 'Nije blizu i neće nas stići nesreća.'”
11 On that day I will rebuild the tabernacle of David that has fallen, and repair its broken places, and I will rebuild its ruins, and I will restore it as in the days of old;
“U dan ću onaj podići raspalu kolibu Davidovu, zatvorit' joj pukotine, popraviti mjesta ruševna, opet je sazidati k'o u stara vremena,
12 that the rest of humanity may seek after Jehovah, and all the nations who are called by my name," says Jehovah who does this.
da osvoje ostatak Edoma i svih naroda nad kojima je zazvano ime moje” - riječ je Jahve Gospoda, tvorca svega toga.
13 "Look, the days come," says Jehovah, "that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.
“Evo dolaze dani - riječ je Jahvina - kada će orač stizat' žeteoca, mastilac grožđa sijača, kad će planine procuriti mladim vinom i svi se bregovi prelijevati njime.
14 I will bring my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. They shall also make gardens, and eat the fruit of them.
Okrenut ću sudbinu naroda moga Izraela: obnovit će gradove srušene i živjeti u njima, saditi vinograde i vino im piti, zasaditi vrtove i jesti njihov rod.
15 I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them," says Jehovah your God.
Posadit ću ih u zemlju njihovu i nikad se više neće iščupati iz zemlje koju im dadoh” - veli Jahve, Bog tvoj.
