Amos 3
Ang Biblia, 2001
3 Pakinggan ninyo ang salitang ito na sinabi ng Panginoon laban sa inyo, O mga anak ni Israel, laban sa buong sambahayan na aking iniahon papalabas mula sa lupain ng Ehipto:
2 “Kayo lamang ang aking nakilala sa lahat ng angkan sa lupa;
kaya't parurusahan ko kayo sa lahat ninyong mga kasamaan.
Ang Gawain ng Propeta
3 “Makakalakad ba ang dalawa na magkasama,
malibang sila'y mayroong ginawang tipanan?
4 Uungal ba ang leon sa gubat,
kapag wala siyang huli?
Sisigaw ba ang batang leon mula sa kanyang yungib,
kung wala siyang nahuling anuman?
5 Malalaglag ba ang ibon sa silo sa ibabaw ng lupa,
kapag walang silo para dito?
Lulukso ba ang panghuli mula sa lupa,
kapag wala itong nahuling anuman?
6 Hihipan ba ang trumpeta sa isang lunsod,
at ang taong-bayan ay hindi matatakot?
Sasapit ba ang kasamaan sa lunsod,
malibang ginawa ito ng Panginoon?
7 Tunay na ang Panginoong Diyos ay walang gagawin,
malibang kanyang ihayag ang kanyang lihim
sa kanyang mga lingkod na mga propeta.
8 Ang leon ay umungal, sinong di matatakot?
Ang Panginoong Diyos ay nagsalita;
sinong hindi magsasalita ng propesiya?”
Ang Hatol sa Samaria
9 Ihayag ninyo sa mga muog sa Asdod,
at sa mga muog sa lupain ng Ehipto,
at inyong sabihin, “Magtipun-tipon kayo sa mga bundok ng Samaria,
at inyong masdan ang malaking kaguluhan sa gitna niya,
at ang pagpapahirap na nasa gitna niya.”
10 “Hindi nila alam ang paggawa ng matuwid,” sabi ng Panginoon,
“sila na nag-iimbak ng karahasan at pagnanakaw sa kanilang mga muog.”
11 Kaya't ganito ang sabi ng Panginoong Diyos:
“Palilibutan ng isang kaaway ang lupain
at kanyang ibabagsak ang iyong tanggulan,
at ang iyong mga muog ay sasamsaman.”
12 Ganito ang sabi ng Panginoon: “Kung paanong inaagaw ng pastol sa bibig ng leon ang dalawang hita, o ang isang piraso ng tainga, gayon ililigtas ang mga anak ni Israel na naninirahan sa Samaria, na may sulok ng hiligan at bahagi ng isang kama.”
13 “Pakinggan ninyo, at magpatotoo kayo laban sa sambahayan ni Jacob,”
sabi ng Panginoong Diyos, ng Diyos ng mga hukbo:
14 “Sa(A) araw na aking parusahan ang Israel dahil sa kanyang pagsuway,
ay aking parurusahan din ang mga dambana ng Bethel,
at ang mga sungay ng dambana ay tatanggalin,
at sila'y malalaglag sa lupa.
15 At aking wawasakin ang bahay na pang-taglamig na kasabay ng bahay na pang-tag-init;
at ang mga bahay na garing ay mawawala,
at ang malalaking bahay ay magwawakas,”
sabi ng Panginoon.
Amos 3
King James Version
3 Hear this word that the Lord hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
2 You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the Lord hath not done it?
7 Surely the Lord God will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord God hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
9 Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof, and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
10 For they know not to do right, saith the Lord, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
11 Therefore thus saith the Lord God; An adversary there shall be even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
12 Thus saith the Lord; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
13 Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord God, the God of hosts,
14 That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
15 And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the Lord.
Amos 3
English Standard Version
Israel's Guilt and Punishment
3 (A)Hear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O people of Israel, against the whole family that I brought up out of the land of Egypt:
2 (B)“You only have I known
of all the families of the earth;
(C)therefore I will punish you
for all your iniquities.
3 “Do two walk together,
unless they have agreed to meet?
4 Does a lion roar in the forest,
when he has no prey?
Does a young lion cry out from his den,
if he has taken nothing?
5 Does a bird fall in a snare on the earth,
when there is no trap for it?
Does a snare spring up from the ground,
when it has taken nothing?
6 (D)Is a trumpet blown in a city,
and the people are not afraid?
(E)Does disaster come to a city,
unless the Lord has done it?
7 “For the Lord God does nothing
(F)without revealing his secret
to his servants the prophets.
8 The lion has roared;
who will not fear?
(G)The Lord God has spoken;
who can but prophesy?”
9 Proclaim to the strongholds in (H)Ashdod
and to the strongholds in the land of Egypt,
and say, “Assemble yourselves on (I)the mountains of Samaria,
and see the great tumults within her,
and (J)the oppressed in her midst.”
10 “They do not know how to do right,” declares the Lord,
(K)“those who store up violence and robbery in their strongholds.”
11 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
(L)“An adversary shall surround the land
and bring down[a] your defenses from you,
and (M)your strongholds shall be plundered.”
12 Thus says the Lord: (N)“As the shepherd rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, (O)so shall the people of Israel (P)who dwell in Samaria be rescued, with the corner of a couch and part[b] of a bed.
13 “Hear, (Q)and testify against the house of Jacob,”
declares the Lord God, (R)the God of hosts,
14 “that on the day I punish Israel for his transgressions,
(S)I will punish the altars of Bethel,
and (T)the horns of the altar shall be cut off
and fall to the ground.
15 (U)I will strike (V)the winter house along with (W)the summer house,
and (X)the houses of ivory shall perish,
and the great houses[c] shall come to an end,”
declares the Lord.
