Amos 9

1 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar, and he said, “Strike the tops of the pillars, that the thresholds may shake. Break them in pieces on the head of all of them. I will kill the last of them with the sword. Not one of them will flee away. Not one of them will escape.

Vidjeh Gospoda, a on stajaše na oltaru, i reèe: udari u gornji prag od vrata da se zatresu dovratnici, i rascijepi ih sve od vrha njihova; a što ostane iza njih pobiæu maèem; neæe uteæi izmeðu njih nijedan, niti æe se koji spasti.

2 Though they dig into Sheol, there my hand will take them; and though they climb up to heaven, there I will bring them down. (Sheol h7585)

Da se zakopaju u najdonji kraj zemlje, odande æe ih uzeti ruka moja; i da izaðu na nebo, odande æu ih skinuti; (Sheol h7585)

3 Though they hide themselves in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them out from there; and though they be hidden from my sight in the bottom of the sea, there I will command the serpent, and it will bite them.

I da se sakriju na vrh Karmila, naæi æu ih i uzeæu ih odande; i da se sakriju ispred mojih oèiju na dno morsko, ondje æu zapovjediti zmiji da ih ujede;

4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies, there I will command the sword, and it will kill them. I will set my eyes on them for evil, and not for good.

Da otidu u ropstvo pred neprijateljima svojim, i ondje æu zapovjediti maèu da ih pobije, i obratiæu oèi svoje njima na zlo a ne na dobro.

5 For the Lord, GOD of Hosts, is he who touches the land and it melts, and all who dwell in it will mourn; and it will rise up wholly like the River, and will sink again, like the River of Egypt.

Jer Gospod Gospod nad vojskama kad se dotakne zemlje, ona se rastapa i tuže svi koji žive na njoj, i razljeva se sva kao rijeka i potapa se kao od rijeke Misirske.

6 It is he who builds his rooms in the heavens, and has founded his vault on the earth; he who calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth—the LORD is his name.

On je sagradio sebi klijeti na nebu i svod svoj osnovao na zemlji; zove vode morske i izljeva ih po zemlji; ime mu je Gospod.

7 Are you not like the children of the Ethiopians to me, children of Israel?” says the LORD. “Haven’t I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and the Syrians from Kir?

Nijeste li mi, sinovi Izrailjevi, kao sinovi Etiopski? govori Gospod; ne izvedoh li Izrailja iz zemlje Misirske, a Filisteje iz Kaftora i Sirce iz Kira?

8 Behold, the eyes of the Lord GOD are on the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from off the surface of the earth, except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,” says the LORD.

Gle, oèi su Gospodnje upravljene na ovo grješno carstvo da ga zatrem sa zemlje; ali neæu sasvijem zatrti doma Jakovljeva, govori Gospod.

9 “For behold, I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all the nations as grain is sifted in a sieve, yet not the least kernel will fall on the earth.

Jer, evo, ja æu zapovjediti i razmetaæu meðu svijem narodima dom Izrailjev kao što se razmeæe žito u rešetu da ni zrno ne padne na zemlju.

10 All the sinners of my people will die by the sword, who say, ‘Evil won’t overtake nor meet us.’

Od maèa æe poginuti svi grješnici izmeðu mojega naroda, koji govore: neæe doæi, niti æe nas zadesiti zlo.

11 In that day I will raise up the tent of David who is fallen and close up its breaches, and I will raise up its ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old,

U to æu vrijeme podignuti opali šator Davidov, i zatvoriæu mu pukotine, i opraviæu mu što je razvaljeno, i opet æu ga sagraditi kao što je bio prije,

12 that they may possess the remnant of Edom and all the nations who are called by my name,” says the LORD who does this.

Da bi naslijedili ostatak Edomski i sve narode na koje se priziva ime moje, govori Gospod, koji èini ovo.

13 “Behold, the days come,” says the LORD, “that the plowman shall overtake the reaper, and the one treading grapes him who sows seed; and sweet wine will drip from the mountains, and flow from the hills.

Evo, idu dani, govori Gospod, kad æe oraè stizati žeteoca, i koji gazi grožðe sijaèa, i gore æe kapati slatkim vinom, a svi æe se humovi rastapati.

14 I will bring my people Israel back from captivity, and they will rebuild the ruined cities, and inhabit them; and they will plant vineyards, and drink wine from them. They shall also make gardens, and eat their fruit.

I povratiæu roblje naroda svojega Izrailja, i opet æe sagraditi puste gradove i naseliæe se, i nasadiæe vinograde i piti vino iz njih, i naèiniæe vrtove i jesti rod iz njih.

15 I will plant them on their land, and they will no more be plucked up out of their land which I have given them,” says the LORD your God.

I posadiæu ih u zemlji njihovoj, i neæe se više išèupati iz zemlje svoje, koju im dadoh, govori Gospod Bog tvoj.
