Amos 5
1 Listen to this word which I take up for a lamentation over you, O house of Israel:
Denggenyo daytoy a sao nga idungdung-awko kadakayo, balay ti Israel.
2 “The virgin of Israel has fallen; She shall rise no more. She is cast down on her land; there is no one to raise her up.”
Natuangen ti birhen nga Israel; saanto isuna a bumangonen; nabaybay-an isuna iti mismo a dagana; awan iti mangbangon kenkuana.
3 For the Lord GOD says: “The city that went out a thousand shall have a hundred left, and that which went out one hundred shall have ten left to the house of Israel.”
Ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo: “Ti siudad a rimmuar nga addaan iti sangaribo ket sangagasutto laeng ti mabati ken ti rimmuar nga addaan iti sangagasut ket sangapulonto laeng ti mabati iti balay ti Israel.”
4 For the LORD says to the house of Israel: “Seek me, and you will live;
Gapu ta kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh iti balay ti Israel: “Sapulendak ket agbiagkayo!
5 but don’t seek Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and don’t pass to Beersheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nothing.
Saanyo a sapulen ti Betel; wenno sumrek iti Gilgal; saankayo a mapan iti Beerseba. Gapu ta awan duadua a maitalawto a kas balud ti Gilgal, ket agladingitto ti Betel.
6 Seek the LORD, and you will live, lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and it devour, and there be no one to quench it in Bethel.
Sapulenyo ni Yahweh ket agbiagkayo, Amangan no sumgiab isuna a kas apuy iti balay ni Jose. Mangibusto daytoy, ket awanto iti mangiddep iti daytoy iti Betel.
7 You who turn justice to wormwood, and cast down righteousness to the earth!
Pagbalbalinen dagidiay a tattao a nasaem a banag ti hustisia ket ibelbellengda iti daga ti kinalinteg!”
8 Seek him who made the Pleiades and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night; who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth, the LORD is his name,
Inaramid ti Dios ti Pleyades ken Orion; pagbalbalinenna nga agsapa ti sipnget; pagbalbalinenna a rabii ti aldaw ken ay-ayabanna ti danum iti baybay ket ibuybuyatna iti rabaw ti daga. Yahweh ti naganna!
9 who brings sudden destruction on the strong, so that destruction comes on the fortress.
Iiyegna ti apagdarikmat a pannakadadael kadagiti nabileg tapno dumteng ti pannakadadael kadagiti sarikedked.
10 They hate him who reproves in the gate, and they abhor him who speaks blamelessly.
Kabusbusorda ti siasinoman a mangilinlinteg kadakuada sadiay ruangan ti siudad, ken gurguraenda ti siasinoman nga agibagbaga iti pudno.
11 Therefore, because you trample on the poor and take taxes from him of wheat, you have built houses of cut stone, but you will not dwell in them. You have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink their wine.
Gapu ta ibaddebaddekyo dagiti marigrigat ken al-alaenyo dagiti trigoda, uray man no nagpatakderkayo kadagiti balay a naaramid iti bato, saankayonto nga agnaed sadiay. Nagpipintas ti kaubasanyo ngem saanyonto a mainum ti arak a naggapu kadagitoy.
12 For I know how many are your offences, and how great are your sins— you who afflict the just, who take a bribe, and who turn away the needy in the courts.
Gapu ta ammok ti kaadu dagiti panagsalungasingyo ken ti kadakkel dagiti basbasolyo— dakayo a mangparparigat ti nalinteg, umaw-awat iti pasuksok ken mangiwalwalin kadagiti agkasapulan sadiay ruangan ti siudad.
13 Therefore a prudent person keeps silent in such a time, for it is an evil time.
Isu nga agulimek ti siasinoman a nanakman iti kasta a tiempo, ta dayta ket tiempo ti kinadakes.
14 Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be with you, as you say.
Sapulenyo ti naimbag, saan a ti dakes tapno agbiagkayo. Ket ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin ket addanto kadakayo a kas kunkunayo.
15 Hate evil, love good, and establish justice in the courts. It may be that the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.”
Guraenyo ti dakes, ayatenyo ti naimbag, ipasdekyo ti hustisia idiay ruangan iti siudad. Nalabit a maasianto ni Yahweh, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin, kadagiti nabati a kaputotan ni Jose.
16 Therefore the LORD, the God of Hosts, the Lord, says: “Wailing will be in all the wide ways. They will say in all the streets, ‘Alas! Alas!’ They will call the farmer to mourning, and those who are skilful in lamentation to wailing.
Ngarud, kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh nga Apo, ti Dios a mannakabalin amin: “Addanto panagdung-aw iti amin a plasa, ket ibagadanto iti amin a kalsada, 'Asi pay! Asi pay! Ayabandanto dagiti mannalon nga agdung-aw ken dagiti dumudung-aw tapno agdung-aw.
17 In all vineyards there will be wailing, for I will pass through the middle of you,” says the LORD.
Addanto iti panagdung-aw iti amin a kaubasan ta lumabasakto iti tengngayo,” kuna ni Yahweh.
18 “Woe to you who desire the day of the LORD! Why do you long for the day of the LORD? It is darkness, and not light.
Kakaasikayo a mangtartarigagay ti aldaw ni Yahweh! Apay a tartarigagayanyo ti aldaw ni Yahweh? Sipngetto dayta nga aldaw, saan a lawag.
19 As if a man fled from a lion, and a bear met him; or he went into the house and leaned his hand on the wall, and a snake bit him.
Kas iti tao nga itartarayana ti leon ket adda ti oso a masabatna, wenno simrek iti balay, insadagna ti imana iti diding ket kinagat isuna iti uleg.
20 Won’t the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? Even very dark, and no brightness in it?
Saankadi a sipngetto ti aldaw ni Yahweh, saan a lawag? Nalidem ken nasipnget?
21 I hate, I despise your feasts, and I can’t stand your solemn assemblies.
“Kagurgurak ken karurodko dagiti piestayo, saanak a maragragsakan kadagiti napasnek a panaguummongyo.
22 Yes, though you offer me your burnt offerings and meal offerings, I will not accept them; neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat animals.
Uray man no idatonyo kaniak dagiti daton a maipuor ken dagiti sagut a bukbukkel, saankonto nga awaten dagitoy, wenno taliawen dagiti pinalukmegyo nga ayup nga idatagyo kas daton a pannakilangen.
23 Take away from me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.
Isardengyo ti ariwawa dagiti kantayo; saanko a denggen ti uni dagiti arpayo.
24 But let justice roll on like rivers, and righteousness like a mighty stream.
Palubosanyo ketdi nga agayus ti hustisia a kas iti danum, ken ti kinalinteg a kas iti kankanayon nga agay-ayus a karayan.
25 “Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, house of Israel?
Inyegandak kadi kadagiti sakripisio ken daton iti let-ang bayat iti uppat a pulo a tawen, balay ti Israel?
26 You also carried the tent of your king and the shrine of your images, the star of your god, which you made for yourselves.
Itag-ayonto ni Sakkut a kas ariyo ken ni Kaiwan a bituen a diosyo—dagiti didiosen nga inaramidyo para kadagiti bagbagiyo.
27 Therefore I will cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus,” says the LORD, whose name is the God of Hosts.
Ngarud, italawkayonto a kas balud iti labes ti Damasco,” kuna ni Yahweh, Dios a mannakabalin amin ti naganna.
