Амос 8
Библия, нов превод от оригиналните езици (с неканоничните книги)
Видение за кошница със зрели плодове
8 Това Господ Бог ми откри във видение: ето кошница със зрели плодове. 2 (A)Той ме попита: „Какво виждаш, Амосе?“
Отговорих: „Кошница със зрели плодове.“
Тогава Господ ми каза: „Свърши се с Моя народ. Няма повече да му прощавам. 3 В онзи ден храмовите песни ще са ридания – казва Господ Бог, и многото трупове ще бъдат мълчешком изхвърлени.“
4 (B)Слушайте това, вие, които мачкахте слабите, погубвахте бедните по земята 5 (C)и казвахте: „Кога ще мине празник новолуние, за да продадем житото, и ще дойде събота, за да отворим житницата? Да намалим ефата и да увеличим сиклата, да нагласим лъжливо везните, 6 (D)за да изкупим беззащитните с пари, а бедните с чифт обувки, да продадем отсевките от пшеницата.“
7 Господ се закле в гордостта на Яков: „Никога няма да забравя всичките им дела.“ 8 (E)Няма ли заради това земята да се разтресе и няма ли да се натъжат жителите ѝ? Тя се вълнува като река, надига се и спада като египетската река.
9 „В онзи ден – казва Господ, ще изпратя слънцето да залезе на обед и ще спусна мрак над земята посред бял ден, 10 (F)ще обърна празниците ви в погребения и песните ви в плач. Ще ви препаша с вретище и главата му ще е обръсната. Тъгата ще е както при загуба на единороден син, а денят ще бъде болен от горчивина.“
11 (G)„Ето идват дни – казва Господ, когато ще изпратя глад на земята, но не жажда за хляб и жажда за вода, а за да се чуе словото на Господа. 12 (H)Тогава ще скитат от море до море и ще обикалят от север до изток да търсят словото Господне, но няма да го намерят. 13 В онзи ден красивите девици и юношите ще изнемогват от жажда, 14 всички, които се клеха във вината на Самария и казваха: ‘Твоят Бог е жив, Дан и пътят към Вирсавия е жив’, ще паднат и няма вече да станат.“
Amos 8
King James Version
8 Thus hath the Lord God shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the Lord unto me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord God: there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth with silence.
4 Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat?
7 The Lord hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.
8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
9 And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10 And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the end thereof as a bitter day.
11 Behold, the days come, saith the Lord God, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the Lord:
12 And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.
13 In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
14 They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beersheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.
Amos 8
New King James Version
Vision of the Summer Fruit
8 Thus the Lord God showed me: Behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And He said, “Amos, what do you see?”
So I said, “A basket of summer fruit.”
Then the Lord said to me:
(A)“The end has come upon My people Israel;
(B)I will not pass by them anymore.
3 And (C)the songs of the temple
Shall be wailing in that day,”
Says the Lord God—
“Many dead bodies everywhere,
(D)They shall be thrown out in silence.”
4 Hear this, you who [a]swallow up the needy,
And make the poor of the land fail,
5 Saying:
“When will the New Moon be past,
That we may sell grain?
And (E)the Sabbath,
That we may [b]trade wheat?
(F)Making the ephah small and the shekel large,
Falsifying the scales by (G)deceit,
6 That we may buy the poor for (H)silver,
And the needy for a pair of sandals—
Even sell the bad wheat?”
7 The Lord has sworn by (I)the pride of Jacob:
“Surely (J)I will never forget any of their works.
8 (K)Shall the land not tremble for this,
And everyone mourn who dwells in it?
All of it shall swell like [c]the River,
Heave and subside
(L)Like the River of Egypt.
9 “And it shall come to pass in that day,” says the Lord God,
(M)“That I will make the sun go down at noon,
And I will darken the earth in [d]broad daylight;
10 I will turn your feasts into (N)mourning,
(O)And all your songs into lamentation;
(P)I will bring sackcloth on every waist,
And baldness on every head;
I will make it like mourning for an only son,
And its end like a bitter day.
11 “Behold, the days are coming,” says the Lord God,
“That I will send a famine on the land,
Not a famine of bread,
Nor a thirst for water,
But (Q)of hearing the words of the Lord.
12 They shall wander from sea to sea,
And from north to east;
They shall run to and fro, seeking the word of the Lord,
But shall (R)not find it.
