Amosa 4
1 Mihainoa izao teny izao, ianareo vantotr’ ombivavin’ i Basana, izay eny an-tendrombohitr’ i Samaria, dia ianareo izay mampahory ny mahantra sy manorotoro ny malahelo ary manao amin’ ny vadinareo hoe: Mitondrà hosotrointsika.
Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, Who [are] on the mountain of Samaria, Who are oppressing the poor, Who are bruising the needy, Who are saying to their lords: “Bring in, and we drink.”
2 Jehovah Tompo efa nianiana tamin’ ny fahamasinany hoe: Indro, ho avy aminareo ny andro hitarihany anareo amin’ ny farango sy izay sisa aminareo amin’ ny fintana.
Lord YHWH has sworn by His holiness, “Behold, days are coming on you, And He has taken you away with hooks, And your posterity with fish-hooks.
3 Ary avy eo amin’ ny banga no hivoahanareo, samy amin’ izay hitsiny avy; Ary horoahina ho any Harmona ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
And [by] breaches you go forth, A woman before her, And you have cast down the high place,” A declaration of YHWH.
4 Mankanesa any Betela, ka manotà, ary any Gilgala, ka manotà fatratra; Ento isa-maraina ny fanatitrareo alatsa-drà ary isan-kateloana ny fahafolon-karenareo;
“Enter Beth-El, and transgress, At Gilgal multiply transgression, And bring in your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every third year.
5 Mandoroa zavatra misy masirasira ho fanati-pisaorana, ary miantsoa fanati-tsitrapo, eny, ambarao izany! Satria ny toy izany no sitrakareo, ry Zanak’ Isiraely, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
And burn a thank-offering with leaven as incense, And proclaim willing gifts, sound! For so you have loved, O sons of Israel,” A declaration of Lord YHWH.
6 Fa Izaho dia efa nanome anareo ny mahamavovava tao an-tanànanareo rehetra, sy ny tsi-fahampian-kanina tamin’ ny fonenanareo rehetra; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
“And I also—I have given to you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in all your places, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
7 Ary Izaho koa efa nampihantona ny orana tsy ho aminareo, raha mbola telo volana sisa tsy ho fararano, ka tamin’ ny tanàna iray no nampilatsahako orana, ary tamin’ ny tanàna iray kosa tsy mba nampilatsahako azy; Ny saha iray nilatsahan’ ny orana. Ary ny saha iray kosa tsy mba nilatsahany ka maina.
“And I also—I have withheld from you the rain, While yet three months to harvest, And I have sent rain on one city, And on another city I do not send rain, One portion is rained on, And the portion on which it does not rain withers.
8 Dia nivembena ny tanàna roa aman-telo nitady rano tany amin’ ny tanàna iray, kanjo tsy afa-ketaheta izy; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
And two or three cities have wandered, To the same city to drink water, And they are not satisfied, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
9 Efa nasiako tamin’ ny vary main’ ny rivotra sy maty fotsy ianareo; Ny habetsahan’ ny tanimbolinareo sy ny tanim-boalobokareo sy ny aviavinareo sy ny hazo olivanareo dia nohanin’ ny valala; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
“I have struck you with blasting and with mildew, The abundance of your gardens and of your vineyards, And of your figs, and of your olives, The palmer-worm eats, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
10 Efa naterako areti-mandringana tahaka ny any Egypta ianareo; Novonoiko sabatra ny zatovonareo sady nobaboina koa ny soavalinareo; Ary nampakariko ho eo am-bavoronareo ny hamaimboan’ ny tobinareo; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
“I have sent among you pestilence by the way of Egypt, I have slain your choice ones by sword, With your captive horses, And I cause the stink of your camps to come up—Even into your nostrils, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
11 Efa nisy noravako teo aminareo tahaka ny nandravan’ Andriamanitra an’ i Sodoma sy Gomora, ka efa tahaka ny forohana nosarihana tamin’ ny afo ianareo; Nefa tsy niverina tamiko ihany ianareo, hoy Jehovah.
“I have overturned among you, Like the overturn by God of Sodom and Gomorrah, And you are as a brand delivered from a burning, And you have not turned back to Me,” A declaration of YHWH.
12 Koa izao no hataoko aminao, sy Isiraely, satria hanao izany aminao Aho, dia miomàna hihaona amin’ Andriamanitrao, ry Isiraely ô.
“Therefore, thus I do to you, O Israel, at last, Because this I do to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel.”
13 Fa indro Ilay mamorona ny tendrombohitra sy manao na rivotra ary mampahafantatra ny olombelona izay heviny, dia Ilay mahatonga ny maraina ho aizina ary mandia ny fitoerana avo amin’ ny tany: Jehovah, Andriamanitry ny maro, no anarany.
For behold, the Former of mountains, and Creator of wind, And the Declarer to man what [is] His thought, He is making dawn obscurity, And is treading on high places of earth, YHWH, God of Hosts, [is] His Name!
