2 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ka toru nei nga pokanga ketanga o Moapa, ae ra, ka wha, na e kore e whakatahuritia atu e ahau te whiu mona; no te mea nana i tahu nga wheua o te kingi o Eroma hei kotakota.
2 Engari ka tukua atu e ahau he ahi ki Moapa, a ka pau i reira nga whare kingi o Kirioto; a ka mate a Moapa i runga i te ngangau, i te hamama, i te tangi o te tetere.
3 A ka hatepea atu e ahau te kaiwhakawa i roto i a ia, ka patua ratou tahi ko nga rangatira katoa o reira, e ai ta Ihowa.
4 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ka toru nei nga pokanga ketanga o Hura, ae ra, ka wha, na e kore e whakatahuritia atu e ahau te whiu mona; no te mea kua whakahawea ratou ki te ture a Ihowa, kihai hoki i pupuri i ana tikanga, a kua meinga ratou e a rato u korero teka kia kotiti ke, i whaia nei e o ratou matua.
5 Engari ka tukua e ahau he ahi ki a Hura, a pau ake i reira nga whare kingi o Hiruharama.
6 Ko te kupu tenei a Ihowa: Ka toru nei nga pokanga ketanga o Iharaira, ae ra, ka wha, na e kore e whakatahuritia atu e ahau te whiu mona; no te mea kua hokona e ratou te tangata tika ki te hiriwa, te rawakore ki nga hu e rua.
7 E minamina ana ratou ki te puehu o te whenua i runga i te mahunga o nga ware: a whakaparoritia ake e ratou te ara o te hunga mahaki: a ka haere te tangata raua ko tona papa ki te kotiro kotahi hei whakapoke i toku ingoa tapu.
8 Na takoto ana ratou ki te taha o nga aata katoa i runga i nga kakahu i homai hei taunaha, a i roto i te whare o to ratou atua kei te inu ratou i te waina a te hunga i whakataua nei te he ki a ratou.
9 Otiia i whakangaromia e ahau te Amori i to ratou aroaro, ko tona roa koia ano kei te roa o te hita, a he kaha ia, pera i nga oki: heoi whakangaromia ana e ahau ona hua i runga, ona pakiaka i raro.
10 I kawea mai ano hoki koutou e ahau i te whenua o Ihipa, a e wha tekau nga tau i arahina ai koutou i te koraha, he mea kia riro mai ai te whenua o te Amori.
11 A i whakaarahia ake e ahau etahi o a koutou tama hei poropiti, etahi hoki o a koutou taitama hei Natari. He teka ianei tena, e nga tama a Iharaira? e ai ta Ihowa.
12 Heoi i whakainumia e koutou nga Natari ki te waina, a i ako hoki ki nga poropiti, i mea, Kaua e poropiti.
13 Nana, ka pehia koutou e ahau ki to koutou wahi, ka pera i te pehanga a te kata e ki ana i nga paihere.
14 Na ka kore te oma i te tangata tere, e kore e nui ake te kaha o te tangata kaha, e kore hoki te marohirohi e mawhiti i te mate:
15 E kore ano te kaipupuri o te kopere e tu; e kore hoki te wae tere e whakaora i a ia ano: e kore ano hoki te tangata eke hoiho e mawhiti i te mate.
16 A, ko te tangata maia i roto i nga marohirohi, ka rere tahanga atu i taua ra, e ai ta Ihowa.
Amos 2
English Standard Version
Amos 2
English Standard Version
2 Thus says the Lord:
(A)“For three transgressions of (B)Moab,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,[a]
because (C)he burned to lime
the bones of the king of Edom.
2 So I will send a fire upon Moab,
and it shall devour the strongholds of (D)Kerioth,
and Moab shall die amid uproar,
amid shouting and the sound of the trumpet;
3 (E)I will cut off the ruler from its midst,
and will kill (F)all its princes[b] with him,”
says the Lord.
Judgment on Judah
4 Thus says the Lord:
(G)“For three transgressions of Judah,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (H)they have rejected the law of the Lord,
and have not kept his statutes,
but (I)their lies have led them astray,
those after which their fathers walked.
5 So (J)I will send a fire upon Judah,
and it shall devour the strongholds of Jerusalem.”
Judgment on Israel
6 Thus says the Lord:
(K)“For three transgressions of Israel,
and for four, I will not revoke the punishment,
because (L)they sell the righteous for (M)silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals—
7 those who trample the head of the poor (N)into the dust of the earth
and (O)turn aside the way of the afflicted;
(P)a man and his father go in to the same girl,
so that my holy name is profaned;
8 they lay themselves down beside every altar
on garments (Q)taken in pledge,
and in the house of their God they drink
the wine of those who have been fined.
9 “Yet (R)it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them,
(S)whose height was like the height of the cedars
and who was as strong as the oaks;
(T)I destroyed his fruit above
and his roots beneath.
10 (U)Also it was I who brought you up out of the land of Egypt
(V)and led you forty years in the wilderness,
(W)to possess the land of the Amorite.
11 And I raised up some of your sons for prophets,
and some of your young men for (X)Nazirites.
Is it not indeed so, O people of Israel?”
declares the Lord.
12 “But you made the Nazirites (Y)drink wine,
and commanded the prophets,
saying, (Z)‘You shall not prophesy.’
13 “Behold, I will press you down in your place,
as a cart full of sheaves presses down.
14 (AA)Flight shall perish from the swift,
(AB)and the strong shall not retain his strength,
(AC)nor shall the mighty save his life;
15 he who handles the bow shall not stand,
and he who is (AD)swift of foot shall not save himself,
(AE)nor shall he who rides the horse save his life;
16 and he who is stout of heart among the mighty
shall flee away naked in that day,”
declares the Lord.

New International Version
2 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Moab,(A)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he burned to ashes(B)
the bones of Edom’s king,
2 I will send fire on Moab
that will consume the fortresses of Kerioth.[a](C)
Moab will go down in great tumult
amid war cries(D) and the blast of the trumpet.(E)
3 I will destroy her ruler(F)
and kill all her officials with him,”(G)
says the Lord.(H)
4 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Judah,(I)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because they have rejected the law(J) of the Lord
and have not kept his decrees,(K)
because they have been led astray(L) by false gods,[b](M)
the gods[c] their ancestors followed,(N)
5 I will send fire(O) on Judah
that will consume the fortresses(P) of Jerusalem.(Q)”
Judgment on Israel
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Israel,
even for four, I will not relent.(R)
They sell the innocent for silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals.(S)
7 They trample on the heads of the poor
as on the dust of the ground
and deny justice to the oppressed.
Father and son use the same girl
and so profane my holy name.(T)
8 They lie down beside every altar
on garments taken in pledge.(U)
In the house of their god
they drink wine(V) taken as fines.(W)
9 “Yet I destroyed the Amorites(X) before them,
though they were tall(Y) as the cedars
and strong as the oaks.(Z)
I destroyed their fruit above
and their roots(AA) below.
10 I brought you up out of Egypt(AB)
and led(AC) you forty years in the wilderness(AD)
to give you the land of the Amorites.(AE)
11 “I also raised up prophets(AF) from among your children
and Nazirites(AG) from among your youths.
Is this not true, people of Israel?”
declares the Lord.
12 “But you made the Nazirites drink wine
and commanded the prophets not to prophesy.(AH)
13 “Now then, I will crush you
as a cart crushes when loaded with grain.(AI)
14 The swift will not escape,(AJ)
the strong(AK) will not muster their strength,
and the warrior will not save his life.(AL)
15 The archer(AM) will not stand his ground,
the fleet-footed soldier will not get away,
and the horseman(AN) will not save his life.(AO)
16 Even the bravest warriors(AP)
will flee naked on that day,”
declares the Lord.
