< Amos 6 >

1 Ac mau fuka upaiya nu suwos su muta insraelak in Zion, ac nu suwos su moul in misla Samaria. Kowos pa mwet fulat lun mutunfacl pwengpeng se inge Israel, su mwet uh fahsri in suk kasru se.
Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the foremost of nations, to whom the house of Israel come.
2 Fahlawin ac liye siti Calneh. Na sifilpa oatula fahsr nu in siti lulap Hamath, na tufokla nu in siti Gath lun mwet Philistia. Ya acn ingan ku liki tokosrai lun Judah ac Israel? Ya acn lalos yohk liki acn lowos?
Go to Calneh, and see; and from there go to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? or is their border greater than your border?
3 Kowos tia lungse in fwack mu sie len in ongoiya ac tuku. A ma kowos oru ingan aksayema len sac.
Those who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
4 Ac mau fuka upaiya nu suwos su lungse oanoanla fin mwe muta wowo lowos, ac mongo ikwen cow fusr ac sheep fusr!
Who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
5 Kowos lungse na kinala on sasu oana David, ac sritalkin ke mwe on nutuwos.
who strum on the strings of a harp; who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;
6 Kowos nwakla ahlu na lulap ke wain ac numla, ac kowos akmusrakin ono na keng, a kowos tiana asor ke musalla lun Israel.
who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the best oils; but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
7 Ke ma inge kowos pa ac som emeet nu in sruoh. Kufwa lowos ac warongrong lowos an ac fah wanginla.
Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive; and the feasting and lounging will end.
8 LEUM GOD Fulat ac Kulana El orala sie wulela ku ke Inel, ac fahk, “Nga kwase inse fulat lun mwet Israel, ac nga tia pac kuhnkuni lohm lulap ac kato selos. Nga fah kitala siti fulat selos ac ma nukewa loac nu sin mwet lokoalok lalos.”
"The LORD has sworn by himself," says the LORD, the God of hosts: "I abhor the pride of Jacob, and detest his fortresses. Therefore I will deliver up the city with all that is in it.
9 Fin pa oasr mwet singoul lula in sie lohm, elos kewa ac misa.
And it will be, if there remain ten men in one house, they will die, and the remaining ones will be left.
10 Sie mwet ma sou lun sie mwet misa, su ma kunel in esukak monin mwet misa, fah usla mano sac liki lohm sac. El fah pang nu sin kutena su srakna muta in lohm ah, ac siyuk, “Oasr mwet lula ingan?” Na sie pusra ac fah topuk, “Wangin!” Na sou se lun mas uh fah fahk, “Koasrlong! Kut enenu in karinganangna kut in tia fahk Inen LEUM GOD.”
"When a man's relative carries him, even he who burns him, to bring bodies out of the house, and asks him who is in the innermost parts of the house, 'Is there yet any with you?' And he says, 'No;' then he will say, 'Hush. Indeed we must not mention the name of the LORD.'
11 Pacl se LEUM GOD El sapkin, na lohm lulap ac lohm srisrik nukewa fah kunanula nu ke ip srisrik.
"For, look, the LORD commands, and the great house will be smashed to pieces, and the little house into bits.
12 Mwet uh tia ku in sang cow uh kihling in meoa uh, oayapa horse uh tiana ku in kasrusr fin eot lulap. A kowos furokla nununku suwohs nu ke pwasin, ac ma pwaye nu ke ma sutuu uh.
Do horses run on the rocky crags? Does one plow there with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison, and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness;
13 Kowos filangkin mu kowos sruokya siti srisrik Lodebar lowos. Kowos konkin ac fahk, “Kut sruokya pac acn Karnaim ke ku lasr sifacna.”
you who rejoice in Lo Debar, who say, 'Haven't we taken for ourselves Karnaim by our own strength?'
14 LEUM GOD Kulana El sifacna fahk, “Mwet Israel, nga ac supwaot sie un mwet mweun liki sie facl sac in sruokya acn suwos ac mutala we. Elos ac fah akkeokye kowos, mutawauk ke Innek In Utyak Nu Hamath tafunyen epang, fahla nwe ke Infacl srisrik soko Arabah tafunyen eir.”
For, look, I will raise up against you a nation, house of Israel," says the LORD, the God of hosts; "and they will afflict you from Lebo Hamath to the Wadi Arabah."
