< Amos 6 >

1 Woe to them [that are] at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, [which are] named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
“Mano kaka unune malit un joma odak maber e Sayun, kod un joma nigi geno ni gode mag Samaria nyalo resogi, kaachiel gi un joma omi luor mag oganda maduongʼ, ma jo-Israel dhi irgi mondo oyud konyruok!
2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: [be they] better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than your border?
Dhiuru uneye Kalne, mi uchop nyaka Hamath, eka bangʼe ulor udhi nyaka Gath manie piny jo-Filistia. Uparo ni pinjego ber moloyo pinjeu? Koso uparo ni nitiere piny maduongʼ moloyo pinyu?
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
Un joma ok odewo odiechieng bura mabiro, to kata kamano timbeu medo mana kelonu chandruok!
4 That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
Un joma nindo e kitendini mokedi gi lak liech, kendo utaroru e kombeu madongo, kuchamo nyirombe mayom ma jambu onywolo, kod nyirwethu machwe mopidh maber.
5 That chant to the sound of the viol, [and] invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;
Un joma goyo thum kaka Daudi nogoyo kendo uchuogo wende mag nyatiti.
6 That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
Un joma madho divai mangʼeny gi agwetni madongo, kendo uwiroru gi modhi mangʼwe ngʼar ma nengogi tek, to ok ane ka un gi lit kata ka joka Josef rumo kamano.
7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.
Kuom mano, un e joma ibiro kuongo daro kitero e twech, kendo mano ema biro bedo giko mar dhialruoku.”
8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is therein.
Jehova Nyasaye Manyalo Gik Moko Duto, ma en Jehova Nyasaye Maratego, osekwongʼore kosingore owuon niya, “Asin gi sunga mar joka Jakobo, kendo asin nyaka gi ohinga mag-gi moger motegno; omiyo abiro chiwo dalagi kod gik moko manie iye e lwet wasigu.”
9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one house, that they shall die.
Ka ji apar odongʼ kata e ot achiel, to gin bende gibiro tho.
10 And a man’s uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that [is] by the sides of the house, [Is there] yet [any] with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
To ka achiel kuom wede joma othogo obiro mondo okaw wadgi mondo owangʼ, to nopenj ngʼat motonyno niya, “Bende ngʼato ni kodi kanyo?” Ngʼatno nodwoke niya, “ooyo,” kendo nowachne niya, “Lingʼ thi nikech ok onego waluong nying Jehova Nyasaye ka.”
11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
Jehova Nyasaye osegolo chik, kendo obiro muko udi madongo malokre pidhe, to udi matindo obiro toyo matindo tindo.
12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [one] plow [there] with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of righteousness into hemlock:
Bende farese nyalo ringo e kite, koso ngʼato nyalo puro wi kitego gi dhok? Kata kamano, un to uloko bura makare bedo gima kech, bende tim makare uloko gima rach.
13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
Umor ka umonjo jo-Lo Debir ka upakoru niya, “Donge ne waloyo jo-Karnaim gi tekowa wawegi?”
14 But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the wilderness.
Omiyo Jehova Nyasaye ma en Nyasaye Maratego wacho niya, “Yaye jo-Israel, abiro kelo oganda moro mondo omonju, ka gisandou chakre Lebo Hamath nyaka e holo mar Araba.”
