Amosa 7
1 Tas Kungs Dievs man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Viņš rādīja siseņus, kad atāls sāka augt, un redzi, atāls bija audzis pēc ķēniņa pļaušanas.
These things the Lord God shewed to me: and behold the locust was formed in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter rain, and lo, it was the latter rain after the king’s mowing.
2 Un kad tie zāli zemes virsū visnotaļ bija aprijuši, tad es sacīju: Kungs Dievs, piedod jel! Kā Jēkabs varēs pastāvēt, jo viņš ir mazs.
And it came to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land, I said: O Lord God, be merciful, I beseech thee: who shall raise up Jacob, for he is very little?
3 Tad Tam Kungam bija žēl; tas nenotiks, sacīja Tas Kungs. -
The Lord had pity upon this: It shall not be, said the Lord.
4 Atkal Tas Kungs Dievs man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Tas Kungs Dievs sauca un gribēja ar uguni sodīt, un tas jau norija to lielo jūru un aprija arī vienu zemes gabalu.
These things the Lord God shewed to me: and behold the Lord called for judgment unto fire, and it devoured the great deep, and ate up a part at the same time.
5 Tad es sacīju: Kungs Dievs, mitējies jel! Kā Jēkabs varēs pastāvēt, jo viņš ir mazs.
And I said: O Lord God, cease, I beseech thee, who shall raise up Jacob, for he is a little one?
6 Tad tas Tam Kungam bija žēl; ir tas nenotiks, - sacīja Tas Kungs Dievs.
The Lord had pity upon this. Yea this also shall not be, said the Lord God.
7 Atkal viņš man šādu lietu lika redzēt, un redzi, Tas Kungs stāvēja uz stāva mūra, un lote(svina svērtenis) bija Viņa rokā.
These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold the Lord was standing upon a plastered wall, and in his hand a mason’s trowel.
8 Un Tas Kungs sacīja uz mani: ko tu redzi, Amos? Tad es sacīju: loti. Tad Tas Kungs sacīja: redzi, Es pielikšu loti vidū Maniem Israēla ļaudīm, un viņus vairs netaupīšu;
And the Lord said to me: What seest thou, Amos? And I said: A mason’s trowel. And the Lord said: Behold, I will lay down the trowel in the midst of my people Israel. I will plaster them over no more.
9 Bet Īzaka elku kalni taps iznīcināti, un Israēla svētās vietas taps nopostītas, un Es celšos pret Jerobeama namu ar zobenu.
And the high places of the idol shall be thrown down, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste: and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
10 Tad Amacīja, Bēteles priesteris, sūtīja pie Jerobeama, Israēla ķēniņa, un sacīja: Amos ceļ dumpi pret tevi Israēla nama vidū, zeme nevar panest visus viņa vārdus.
And Amasias the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: Amos hath rebelled against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
11 Jo tā saka Amos: Jerobeams nomirs caur zobenu, un Israēls vešus no savas zemes taps aizvests.
For thus saith Amos: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall be carried away captive out of their own land.
12 Un Amacīja sacīja uz Amosu: tu redzētāj, ej, bēdz uz Jūda zemi, un ēd tur savu maizi,
And Amasias said to Amos: Thou seer, go, flee away into the land of Juda: and eat bread there, and prophesy there.
13 Un sludini tur, bet Bētelē tev joprojām vairs nebūs sludināt, jo te ir ķēniņa svētā vieta, un te ir valsts pilsēta.
But prophesy not again any more in Bethel: because it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is the house of the kingdom.
14 Tad Amos atbildēja un sacīja uz Amacīju: es neesmu pravietis nedz pravieša dēls, bet es esmu lopu gans un lasu meža vīģes;
And Amos answered and said to Amasias: I am not a prophet, nor am I the son of a prophet: but I am a herdsman plucking wild figs.
15 Bet Tas Kungs mani ņēmis no ganāmā pulka, un Tas Kungs uz mani sacījis: ej, sludini Maniem Israēla ļaudīm.
And the Lord took me when I followed the flock, and the Lord said to me: Go, prophesy to my people Israel.
16 Nu tad, klausi Tā Kunga vārdu! Tu saki: nesludini pret Israēli un nemāci pret Īzaka namu.
And now hear thou the word of the Lord: Thou sayest, thou shalt not prophesy against Israel, and thou shalt not drop thy word upon the house of the idol.
17 Tādēļ, tā saka Tas Kungs: tava sieva pilsētā taps par mauku, un tavi dēli un tavas meitas kritīs caur zobenu, un tava zeme taps mērota un izdalīta, un tu mirsi nešķīstā zemē, un Israēls vešus no savas zemes taps aizvests.
Therefore thus saith the Lord: Thy wife shall play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be measured by a line: and thou shalt die in a polluted land, and Israel shall go into captivity out of their land.
