< Amos 2 >

1 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: “Gapu iti tallo a basol ti Moab, wenno gapu iti uppat, saanko nga ibabawi ti pannusa gapu ta pinuoranna dagiti tulang ti ari ti Edom agingga a nagbalin nga apug.
Thus says the LORD; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 Mangidissuorakto iti apuy idiay Moab ket daytoyto ti mangkisap kadagiti sarikedked ti Keriot. Matayto ti Moab iti maysa nga arimbangaw nga adda panagpupukkaw ken panaguni iti trumpeta.
But I will send a fire on Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3 Dadaelekto ti ukom nga adda kenkuana ket patayekto amin dagiti prinsipe a kaduana,” kuna ni Yahweh.
And I will cut off the judge from the middle thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, says the LORD.
4 Kastoy ti kuna ni Yahweh: “Gapu iti tallo a basol ti Juda, wenno gapu iti uppat, saanko nga ibabawi ti pannusa gapu ta linaksidda ti linteg ni Yahweh ken saanda a tinungpal dagiti bilinna. Dagiti kinaulbodda ti nangiyaw-awan kadakuada a kas iti dalan a napanan dagiti ammada.
Thus says the LORD; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the LORD, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
5 Mangidissuorakto iti apuy idiay Juda ket mapuoranto a mamimpinsan dagiti sarikedked ti Jerusalem.”
But I will send a fire on Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
6 Kastoy ti kiuna ni Yahweh: “Gapu iti tallo a basol ti Israel, wenno gapu iti uppat, saanko nga ibabawi ti pannusa gapu ta inlakoda ti awan basolna gapu iti pirak ken dagiti agkasapulan gapu iti sangapares a sandalias.
Thus says the LORD; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
7 Badbaddekanda ti ulo dagiti marigrigat a kas iti pangibaddek dagiti tattao iti tapok ti daga; iwalwalinda ti maidaddadanes. Kakaiddaen ti ama ken ti putotna a lalaki ti maymaysa a babai ket rugrugitanda ti nasantoan a naganko.
That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in to the same maid, to profane my holy name:
8 Iti abay ti tunggal altar, agid-idada iti rabaw dagiti kawes nga inalada a kas salda, ken iti balay ti Diosda, in-inumenda ti arak dagiti nagmulta.
And they lay themselves down on clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
9 Nupay kasta, dinadaelko ti Amoreo iti sangoananda, a ti tayagna ket kas iti tayag dagiti sedro; napigsa a kas kadagiti lugo. Nupay kasta, dinadaelko ti bungana iti ngato ken dagiti ramutna iti baba.
Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10 Inruarkayo pay idiay daga ti Egipto ken indaldalankayo idiay let-ang iti uppat a pulo a tawen tapno tagikuaenyo ti daga dagiti Amorreo.
Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11 Nangpataudak kadagiti profeta manipud kadagiti annakyo a lallaki ken kadagiti Nazireo manipud kadagiti agtutuboyo a lallaki. Saan kadi, tattao ti Israel? —daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O you children of Israel? says the LORD.
12 “Ngem inallukoyyo dagiti Nazireo nga uminum iti arak ken binilinyo dagiti profeta a saanda nga agipadto.
But you gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13 Kitaenyo, rumekenkayonto a kas iti panangrumek ti maysa a kariton a napno iti bukbukel iti maysa a tao.
Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
14 Saanto a makalibas ti tao a napardas; ti tao a nabileg, saannanto a manayonan ti kinapigsana; ti tao a nasiglat, saananto a maisalakan ti bagina.
Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15 Saanto a makatakder ti pumapana; saanto a makalibas ti tao a napardas nga agtaray; ti tao a nakakabalio ket saananto a maisalakan ti bagina.
Neither shall he stand that handles the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rides the horse deliver himself.
16 Uray dagiti katuredan a mannakigubat ket agtarayto a lamolamo iti dayta nga aldaw—daytoy ti pakaammo ni Yahweh.”
And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, says the LORD.
