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.
Овако вели Господ: За три зла и за четири што учини Моав, нећу му опростити, јер сажеже кости цара едомског у креч.
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
Него ћу пустити огањ на Моава, те ће прождрети дворове у Кариоту, и Моав ће погинути с вревом, с виком и с гласом трубним.
3 [and while] I am getting rid of its king and all its leaders. [That will surely happen because I], Yahweh, have said it!”
И истребићу судију из њега и све кнезове његове побићу с њим, вели Господ.
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].
Овако вели Господ: За три зла и за четири што учини Јуда, нећу му опростити, јер презреше закон Господњи и уредбе Његове не држаше, и преварише се лажима својим, за којима ходише оци њихови.
5 So I will cause a fire to completely burn [everything in] Judah, including the fortresses in Jerusalem.”
Него ћу пустити огањ у Јуду, те ће прождрети дворе јерусалимске.
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.
Овако вели Господ: За три зла и за четири што учини Израиљ, нећу му опростити, јер продаваше праведника за новце и убогог за једне опанке.
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.
Чезну за прахом земаљским на глави сиромасима, и превраћају пут смернима; и син и отац одлазе к једној девојци да скврне свето име моје.
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!
И на хаљинама у залогу узетим леже код сваког олтара, и вино оглобљених пију у кући богова својих.
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.
А ја истребих испред њих Амореје, који беху високи као кедри и јаки као храстови, и потрх род њихов озго и жиле њихове оздо.
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.
И ја вас изведох из земље мисирске, и водих вас по пустињи четрдесет година да бисте наследили земљу аморејску.
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!
И подизах између синова ваших пророке и између младића ваших назиреје. Није ли тако? Синови Израиљеви, говори Господ.
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].
А ви појисте назиреје вином, и пророцима забрањивасте говорећи: Не пророкујте.
13 So I will crush you like [SIM] [the wheels of] a wagon that is loaded with grain crushes [whatever it rolls over].
Ево, ја ћу вас притиснути на месту вашем као што се притискају кола пуна снопља.
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.
И неће бити бега брзоме, и јаки неће утврдити крепости своје, и храбри неће спасти душу своје.
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.
И стрелац неће се одржати, и лаки на ногу неће се избавити, нити ће коњаник спасти душе своје.
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.”
Него ће најхрабрији међу јунацима го побећи у онај дан, говори Господ.
