Amos 2
1 Yahweh [also] said this: “[I will punish the people of] Moab because of the many sins [that they have committed]; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they [dug up] the bones of the king of Edom and burned them completely, with the result that [the ashes became as white] as lime.
| چهار تقصیر موآب عقوبتش را نخواهم برگردانید زیرا که استخوانهای پادشاه ادوم راآهک پختند. | ۱ |
2 So I will cause a fire to completely burn the fortresses of Kerioth [city in Moab]. [People will hear soldiers] shouting and blowing trumpets [loudly] while I am causing Moab to be destroyed
| پس آتش بر موآب می‌فرستم تاقصرهای قریوت را بسوزاند و موآب با هنگامه وخروش و صدای کرنا خواهد مرد. | ۲ |
3 [and while] I am getting rid of its king and all its leaders. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!”
| و خداوندمی گوید که داور را از میانش منقطع خواهم ساخت و همه سرورانش را با وی خواهم کشت. | ۳ |
4 Yahweh [also] said this: “[I will also punish the people of] Judah because of the many sins [that they have committed]; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they have rejected what I taught them and they have not obeyed my commands. They have been deceived [and persuaded to worship false gods], the same [gods] that their ancestors [worshiped].
| خداوند چنین می‌گوید: به‌سبب سه و چهارتقصیر یهودا عقوبتش را نخواهم برگردانید زیراکه شریعت خداوند را ترک نموده، فرایض او رانگاه نداشتند و دروغهای ایشان که پدرانشان آنهارا پیروی نمودند ایشان را گمراه کرد. | ۴ |
5 So I will cause a fire to completely burn [everything in] Judah, including the fortresses in Jerusalem.”
| پس آتش بر یهودا خواهم فرستاد تا قصرهای اورشلیم رابسوزاند. | ۵ |
6 Yahweh [also] said this: “[I will punish the people of] Israel because of the many sins [that they have committed]; I will not change my mind about punishing them, because they sell righteous [people] to get [a small amount of] silver; they sell poor [people, causing them to become slaves], getting for [each of] them [only the amount of money with which they could buy] a pair of sandals.
| خداوند چنین می‌گوید: به‌سبب سه و چهارتقصیر اسرائیل عقوبتش را نخواهم برگردانیدزیرا که مرد عادل را به نقره و مسکین را به زوج نعلین فروختند. | ۶ |
7 [It is as though] they trample the poor people into the dirt and do not allow those who are helpless to be treated fairly. Men and their fathers dishonor me [MTY] by both having sex [EUP] with the same [slave] girl.
| و به غبار زمین که بر سرمسکینان است حرص دارند و راه حلیمان رامنحرف می‌سازند و پسر و پدر به یک دختردرآمده، اسم قدوس مرا بی‌حرمت می‌کنند. | ۷ |
8 [When poor people borrow money], [the lenders force those people to give to them a piece of clothing] for them to keep until he can pay back the money. [But at the end of each day, instead of returning that garment as Yahweh had commanded them to], they lie down on that garment at the places where they worship [their gods]! They fine people, and with that money [they buy] wine and drink it in the temples of their gods!
| وبر رختی که گرو می‌گیرند، نزد هر مذبح می‌خوابند و شراب جریمه شدگان را در خانه خدای خود می‌نوشند. | ۸ |
9 [Long ago, ] to assist your ancestors, I got rid of the Amor people-group. They [seemed to be] as tall as cedar [trees] and as strong as oak [trees], but I got rid of them completely, [as easily as someone cuts off] [MET] the branches of a tree and then digs out all its roots.
| و حال آنکه من اموریان را که قامت ایشان مانند قد سرو آزاد بود و ایشان مثل بلوط تنومندبودند، پیش روی ایشان هلاک ساختم و میوه ایشان را از بالا و ریشه های ایشان را از پایین تلف نمودم. | ۹ |
10 I brought your [ancestors] out of Egypt, and [then] I led them through the desert for 40 years. And then I enabled them to conquer/possess the Amor area.
| و من شما را از زمین مصر برآورده، چهل سال در بیابان گردش دادم تا زمین اموریان رابه تصرف آورید. | ۱۰ |
11 I chose some of you Israelis to be prophets, and I chose others to be Nazir-men [who were completely dedicated to me]. You people of Israel certainly [RHQ] know that what I have said is true!
| و بعضی از پسران شما را انبیاو بعضی از جوانان شما را نذیره قرار دادم. خداوند می‌گوید: ای بنی‌اسرائیل آیا چنین نیست؟ | ۱۱ |
12 But you commanded the prophets to not speak the messages that [I gave to] them, and you persuaded the Nazir-men to drink wine, [which I told them never to do].
| اما شما نذیره‌ها را شراب نوشانیدید وانبیا را نهی نموده، گفتید که نبوت مکنید. | ۱۲ |
13 So I will crush you like [SIM] [the wheels of] a wagon that is loaded with grain crushes [whatever it rolls over].
| اینک من شما را تنگ خواهم گذارد چنانکه ارابه‌ای که از بافه‌ها پر باشد، تنگ گذارده می‌شود. | ۱۳ |
14 [Even] if you run fast, you will not escape; [even] if you are strong, [it will be as though] you are weak, and warriors will be unable to save themselves.
| و مفر برای تندرو فوت خواهد شد و تنومند به توانایی خویش غالب نخواهد آمد و جبار جان خود را نخواهد رهانید. | ۱۴ |
15 [Even] if you are able to shoot arrows [well], you will be forced to retreat [LIT]; [even] if you run fast or if you ride [away] on a horse, you will not [be able to] save yourself.
| و تیرانداز نخواهدایستاد و تیزپا خود را نخواهد رهانید و اسب‌سوارجان خود را خلاصی نخواهد داد. | ۱۵ |
16 [Even] warriors who are very brave will drop their weapons when they try to flee on the day [that I get rid of them]. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it.”
| و خداوندمی گوید که شجاع ترین جباران در آن روز عریان خواهند گریخت. | ۱۶ |
