Amosa 7
1 Izao no nasehon’ i Jehovah Tompo tamiko: Indro, nanao ny valala tamin’ ny voalohan’ ny nitsimohan’ ny kolokolon’ ahitra Izy; ary, indro, kolokolon’ izay nojinjana ho an’ ny mpanjaka izany.
Thus has the Lord God shewed me; and, behold, a swarm of locusts coming from the east; and, behold, one caterpillar, king Gog.
2 Ary nony efa laniny avokoa ny zava-maniry amin’ ny tany, dia hoy izaho: Jehovah Tompo, mifona aminao aho mamelà heloka! Hataon’ i Jakoba ahoana no fahajanona? Fa kely izy.
And it came to pass when he had finished devouring the grass of the land, that I said, Lord God, be merciful; who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number.
3 Nanenenan’ i Jehovah izany; Tsy hisy izany, hoy Jehovah.
Repent, O Lord, for this. And this shall not be, saith the Lord.
4 Izao no nasehon’ i Jehovah Tompo tamiko: Indro, Jehovah Tompo miantso hifandahatra hamely amin’ ny afo, ka nandevona ny lalina lehibe sy nila handany ny zara-lova izany.
Thus has the Lord shewed me; and, behold, the Lord called for judgment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and devoured the Lord's portion.
5 Dia hoy izaho: Jehovah Tompo, Mifona aminao aho, mitsahara! Hataon’ i Jakoba ahoana no fahajanona? Fa kely izy.
Then I said, O Lord, cease, I pray thee: who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number. Repent, O Lord, for this.
6 Nanenenan’ i Jehovah izany; Tsy hisy izany, hoy Jehovah Tompo.
This also shall not be, saith the Lord.
7 Izao no nasehony ahy: Indro, ny Tompo nitsangana teo ambonin’ ny manda natao amin’ ny pilao, sady nisy pilao teny an-tànany.
Thus the Lord shewed me; and behold, he stood upon a wall of adamant, and in his hand [was] an adamant.
8 Dia hoy Jehovah tamiko: Inona no hitanao, ry Amosa? Ary hoy izaho: Pilao. Dia hoy ny Tompo: Indro, hanisy pilao eo amin’ ny Isiraely oloko Aho, fa tsy handefitra aminy intsony;
And the Lord said to me, What seest thou, Amos? And I said, An adamant. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I appoint an adamant in the midst of my people Israel: I will not pass by them any more.
9 Dia ho foana ny fitoerana avon’ Isaka, ary ho rava ny fitoera-masin’ Isiraely; Ary hitsangana Aho ka hamely sabatra ny taranak’ i Jeroboama.
And the joyful altars shall be abolished, and the sacrifices of Israel shall be set aside; and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
10 Dia naniraka tany amin’ i Jeroboama, mpanjakan’ ny Isiraely, Amazia, ilay mpisorona tao Betela, nanao hoe: Amosa efa nanao tetika hikomy aminao teo amin’ ny taranak’ Isiraely, ary tsy zakan’ ny tany ny teniny rehetra,
Then Amasias the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos is forming conspiracies against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land will be utterly unable to bear all his words.
11 satria hoy Amosa: Ho fatin-tsabatra Jeroboama, ary hobaboina hiala amin’ ny taniny tokoa ny Isiraely.
For thus says Amos, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall be led away captive from his land.
12 Ary hoy Amazia tamin’ i Amosa: Ry mpahita! andeha mandositra mankany amin’ ny tanin’ ny Joda ianao, ka mihinàna hanina any, ary maminania any;
And Amasias said to Amos, Go, seer, remove thou into the land of Juda, and live there, and thou shalt prophesy there:
13 fa aza maminany eto Betela intsony; fa fitoera-masin’ ny mpanjaka sy tranom-panjakana ity.
but thou shalt no longer prophesy at Bethel: for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is the royal house.
14 Dia namaly Amosa ka nanao tamin’ i Amazia hoe: Tsy mba mpaminany aho, na zanaka ny mpaminany; fa mpiandry ondry sy mpioty aviavy ihany aho,
And Amos answered, and said to Amasias, I was not a prophet, nor the son of a prophet; but I was a herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruits.
15 saingy nalain’ i Jehovah tany ampiandrasana ondry ka nataony hoe: Mandehana, ka maminania amin’ ny Isiraely oloko.
And the Lord took me from the sheep, and the Lord said to me, Go, and prophesy to my people Israel.
16 Ka mba henoy ny tenin’ i Jehovah: Hianao manao hoe: Aza maminany ny hamelezana ny Isiraely, ary aza milaza ny hamelezana ny taranak’ Isaka;
And now hear the word of the Lord: Thou sayest, Prophesy not to Israel, and raise not a tumult against the house of Jacob.
17 Koa izao no lazain’ i Jehovah: Ny vadinao hijangajanga ao an-tanàna, ary ny zanakao-lahy sy ny zanakao-vavy ho lavon-tsabatra, Ary ny taninao hozaraina amin’ ny famolaina; Ary ny tenanao ho faty any amin’ ny tany maloto; Ary ny Isiraely hobaboina hiala amin’ ny taniny tokoa.
Therefore thus saith the Lord; Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be measured with the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall be led captive out of his land. Thus has the Lord God shewed me.
