Amos 7
1 Thus did the Lord Jehovah shew unto me; and behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth, and behold, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings.
| وَهَذَا مَا أَرَانِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا هُوَ يُعِدُّ أَسْرَابَ جَرَادٍ فِي بَدْءِ نُمُوِّ الأَعْشَابِ الْمُتَأَخِّرَةِ بَعْدَ أَنْ تَمَّ جَزُّ نَصِيبِ الْمَلِكِ مِنْهَا. | ١ |
2 And it came to pass, when they had wholly eaten the grass of the land, that I said, O Lord Jehovah, forgive, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
| وَبَعْدَ أَنْ فَرَغَ الْجَرَادُ مِنِ الْتِهَامِ عُشْبِ الأَرْضِ، قُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، اصْفَحْ عَنْ شَعْبِكَ. إِذْ كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ، فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ؟» | ٢ |
3 Jehovah repented for this: It shall not be, said Jehovah.
| فَعَفَا الرَّبُّ عَنْ هَذَا وَقَالَ: «لَنْ يَحْدُثَ مَا رَأَيْتَهُ». | ٣ |
4 Thus did the Lord Jehovah shew unto me; and behold, the Lord Jehovah called to contend by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and ate up the inheritance.
| ثُمَّ هَذَا مَا أَرَانِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: شَاهَدْتُ السَّيِّدَ الرَّبَّ يَدْعُو لِلْمُحَاكَمَةِ بِالنَّارِ الَّتِي لَعَقَتِ الْبَحْرَ الْعَظِيمَ فَجَفَّ، وَأَكَلَتِ الْحُقُولَ. | ٤ |
5 Then said I, O Lord Jehovah, cease, I beseech thee! How shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
| عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، كُفَّ عَنْ هَذَا، إِذْ كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ، فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ؟» | ٥ |
6 Jehovah repented for this: This also shall not be, said the Lord Jehovah.
| فَعَفَا الرَّبُّ عَنْ هَذَا، وَقَالَ: «لَنْ يَحْدُثَ مَا رَأَيْتَهُ». | ٦ |
7 Thus did he shew unto me; and behold, the Lord stood upon a wall [made] by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand.
| ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ، وَإذَا الرَّبُّ وَاقِفٌ بِجِوَارِ حَائِطٍ مَبْنِيٍّ، وَفِي يَدِهِ مِيزَانُ الْبِنَاءِ. | ٧ |
8 And Jehovah said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumb-line. And the Lord said, Behold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more.
| فَقَالَ لِي الرَّبُّ: «يَا عَامُوسُ، مَاذَا تَرَى؟» فَأَجَبْتُ: «مِيزَانَ الْبِنَاءِ». فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «هَا أَنَا أَمُدُّ مِيزَانَ الْبِنَاءِ فِي وَسَطِ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلَنْ أَعْفُوَ عَنْهُمْ. | ٨ |
9 And the high places of Isaac shall be desolated, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will arise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
| فَتُقْفِرُ مُرْتَفَعَاتُ إِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْتَرِي الْخَرَابُ مَقَادِسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَثُورُ عَلَى بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ بِالسَّيْفِ». | ٩ |
10 Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
| فَأَرْسَلَ أَمَصْيَا كَاهِنُ بَيْتِ إِيلَ إِلَى يَرُبْعَامَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلاً: «قَدْ تَآمَرَ عَلَيْكَ عَامُوسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلا تُطِيقُ الأَرْضُ تَحَمُّلَ كُلِّ تَنَبُّؤَاتِهِ | ١٠ |
11 For thus Amos saith: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall certainly go into captivity out of his land.
| لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ عَامُوسُ: إِنَّ يَرُبْعَامَ يَمُوتُ بِحَدِّ السَّيْفِ، وَيُسْبَى إِسْرَائِيلُ بَعِيداً عَنْ دِيَارِهِ». | ١١ |
12 And Amaziah said unto Amos, [Thou] seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there.
| ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَصْيَا لِعَامُوسَ: «اهْرُبْ أَيُّهَا الرَّائِي إِلَى أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا، وَكُلْ خُبْزاً هُنَاكَ وَتَنَبَّأْ فِيهَا. | ١٢ |
13 But prophesy not again any more at Bethel; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is the house of the kingdom.
| أَمَّا بَيْتُ إِيلَ فَلا تَعُدْ لِلتَّنَبُّؤِ فِيهَا، لأَنَّهَا مَقْدِسُ الْمَلِكِ وَمَقَرُّ الْمَمْلَكَةِ». | ١٣ |
14 And Amos answered and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruit.
| فَأَجَابَ عَامُوسُ: «أَنَا لَمْ أَكُنْ نَبِيًّا وَلا ابْنَ نَبِيٍّ، إِنَّمَا أَنَا رَاعِي غَنَمٍ وَجَانِي جُمَّيْزٍ، | ١٤ |
15 And Jehovah took me as I followed the flock, and Jehovah said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
| فَاصْطَفَانِي الرَّبُّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْغَنَمِ وَأَمَرَنِي قَائِلاً: اذْهَبْ تَنَبَّأْ لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ. | ١٥ |
16 And now hear thou the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and utter not [words] against the house of Isaac.
| لِذَلِكَ اسْمَعِ الآنَ كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ: أَنْتَ تَقُولُ لَا تَتَنَبَّأْ ضِدَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلا تُهَاجِمْ بَيْتَ إِسْحَاقَ. | ١٦ |
17 Therefore thus saith Jehovah: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided with the line; and thou shalt die in a land that is unclean; and Israel shall certainly go into captivity, out of his land.
| لِهَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: سَتُصْبِحُ امْرَأَتُكَ عَاهِرَةً فِي الْمَدِينَةِ، وَيُقْتَلُ أَبْنَاؤُكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ بِالسَّيْفِ، وَتُقْسَمُ أَرْضُكَ بِالْحَبْلِ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَمُوتُ فِي أَرْضِ الأُمَمِ الْوَثَنِيَّةِ، وَيُسْبَى إِسْرَائِيلُ إِلَى أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ عَنْ دِيَارِهِ». | ١٧ |
