NAV
وَهَذَا مَا أَرَانِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: هَا هُوَ يُعِدُّ أَسْرَابَ جَرَادٍ فِي بَدْءِ نُمُوِّ الأَعْشَابِ الْمُتَأَخِّرَةِ بَعْدَ أَنْ تَمَّ جَزُّ نَصِيبِ الْمَلِكِ مِنْهَا.
BSB
BSB:
This is what the Lord GOD showed me: He was preparing swarms of locusts just after the king’s harvest, as the late spring crop was coming up.
2
NAV
وَبَعْدَ أَنْ فَرَغَ الْجَرَادُ مِنِ الْتِهَامِ عُشْبِ الأَرْضِ، قُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، اصْفَحْ عَنْ شَعْبِكَ. إِذْ كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ، فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ؟»
BSB
BSB:
And when the locusts had eaten every green plant in the land, I said, “Lord GOD, please forgive! How will Jacob survive, since he is so small?”
3
NAV
فَعَفَا الرَّبُّ عَنْ هَذَا وَقَالَ: «لَنْ يَحْدُثَ مَا رَأَيْتَهُ».
BSB
BSB:
So the LORD relented from this plan. “It will not happen,” He said.
4
NAV
ثُمَّ هَذَا مَا أَرَانِي السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ: شَاهَدْتُ السَّيِّدَ الرَّبَّ يَدْعُو لِلْمُحَاكَمَةِ بِالنَّارِ الَّتِي لَعَقَتِ الْبَحْرَ الْعَظِيمَ فَجَفَّ، وَأَكَلَتِ الْحُقُولَ.
BSB
BSB:
This is what the Lord GOD showed me: The Lord GOD was calling for judgment by fire. It consumed the great deep and devoured the land.
5
NAV
عِنْدَئِذٍ قُلْتُ: «أَيُّهَا السَّيِّدُ الرَّبُّ، كُفَّ عَنْ هَذَا، إِذْ كَيْفَ يُمْكِنُ لِيَعْقُوبَ أَنْ يَنْهَضَ، فَإِنَّهُ صَغِيرٌ؟»
BSB
BSB:
Then I said, “Lord GOD, please stop! How will Jacob survive, since he is so small?”
6
NAV
فَعَفَا الرَّبُّ عَنْ هَذَا، وَقَالَ: «لَنْ يَحْدُثَ مَا رَأَيْتَهُ».
BSB
BSB:
So the LORD relented from this plan. “It will not happen either,” said the Lord GOD.
7
NAV
ثُمَّ رَأَيْتُ، وَإذَا الرَّبُّ وَاقِفٌ بِجِوَارِ حَائِطٍ مَبْنِيٍّ، وَفِي يَدِهِ مِيزَانُ الْبِنَاءِ.
BSB
BSB:
This is what He showed me: Behold, the Lord was standing by a wall true to plumb, with a plumb line in His hand.
8
NAV
فَقَالَ لِي الرَّبُّ: «يَا عَامُوسُ، مَاذَا تَرَى؟» فَأَجَبْتُ: «مِيزَانَ الْبِنَاءِ». فَقَالَ الرَّبُّ: «هَا أَنَا أَمُدُّ مِيزَانَ الْبِنَاءِ فِي وَسَطِ شَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلَنْ أَعْفُوَ عَنْهُمْ.
BSB
BSB:
“Amos, what do you see?” asked the LORD. “A plumb line,” I replied. “Behold,” said the Lord, “I am setting a plumb line among My people Israel; I will no longer spare them:
9
NAV
فَتُقْفِرُ مُرْتَفَعَاتُ إِسْحَاقَ وَيَعْتَرِي الْخَرَابُ مَقَادِسَ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَأَثُورُ عَلَى بَيْتِ يَرُبْعَامَ بِالسَّيْفِ».
BSB
BSB:
The high places of Isaac will be deserted, and the sanctuaries of Israel will be laid waste; and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with My sword.”
10
NAV
فَأَرْسَلَ أَمَصْيَا كَاهِنُ بَيْتِ إِيلَ إِلَى يَرُبْعَامَ مَلِكِ إِسْرَائِيلَ قَائِلاً: «قَدْ تَآمَرَ عَلَيْكَ عَامُوسُ فِي وَسَطِ بَيْتِ إِسْرَائِيلَ، وَلا تُطِيقُ الأَرْضُ تَحَمُّلَ كُلِّ تَنَبُّؤَاتِهِ
BSB
BSB:
Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words,
11
NAV
لأَنَّ هَذَا مَا يَقُولُهُ عَامُوسُ: إِنَّ يَرُبْعَامَ يَمُوتُ بِحَدِّ السَّيْفِ، وَيُسْبَى إِسْرَائِيلُ بَعِيداً عَنْ دِيَارِهِ».
BSB
BSB:
for this is what Amos has said: ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”
12
NAV
ثُمَّ قَالَ أَمَصْيَا لِعَامُوسَ: «اهْرُبْ أَيُّهَا الرَّائِي إِلَى أَرْضِ يَهُوذَا، وَكُلْ خُبْزاً هُنَاكَ وَتَنَبَّأْ فِيهَا.
BSB
BSB:
And Amaziah said to Amos, “Go away, you seer! Flee to the land of Judah; earn your bread there and do your prophesying there.
13
NAV
أَمَّا بَيْتُ إِيلَ فَلا تَعُدْ لِلتَّنَبُّؤِ فِيهَا، لأَنَّهَا مَقْدِسُ الْمَلِكِ وَمَقَرُّ الْمَمْلَكَةِ».
BSB
BSB:
But never prophesy at Bethel again, because it is the sanctuary of the king and the temple of the kingdom.”
14
NAV
فَأَجَابَ عَامُوسُ: «أَنَا لَمْ أَكُنْ نَبِيًّا وَلا ابْنَ نَبِيٍّ، إِنَّمَا أَنَا رَاعِي غَنَمٍ وَجَانِي جُمَّيْزٍ،
BSB
BSB:
“I was not a prophet,” Amos replied, “nor was I the son of a prophet; rather, I was a herdsman and a tender of sycamore-fig trees.
15
NAV
فَاصْطَفَانِي الرَّبُّ مِنْ وَرَاءِ الْغَنَمِ وَأَمَرَنِي قَائِلاً: اذْهَبْ تَنَبَّأْ لِشَعْبِي إِسْرَائِيلَ.
BSB
BSB:
But the LORD took me from following the flock and said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’
16
NAV
لِذَلِكَ اسْمَعِ الآنَ كَلِمَةَ الرَّبِّ: أَنْتَ تَقُولُ لَا تَتَنَبَّأْ ضِدَّ إِسْرَائِيلَ وَلا تُهَاجِمْ بَيْتَ إِسْحَاقَ.
BSB
BSB:
Now, therefore, hear the word of the LORD. You say: ‘Do not prophesy against Israel; do not preach against the house of Isaac.’
17
NAV
لِهَذَا يَقُولُ الرَّبُّ: سَتُصْبِحُ امْرَأَتُكَ عَاهِرَةً فِي الْمَدِينَةِ، وَيُقْتَلُ أَبْنَاؤُكَ وَبَنَاتُكَ بِالسَّيْفِ، وَتُقْسَمُ أَرْضُكَ بِالْحَبْلِ. أَمَّا أَنْتَ فَتَمُوتُ فِي أَرْضِ الأُمَمِ الْوَثَنِيَّةِ، وَيُسْبَى إِسْرَائِيلُ إِلَى أَرْضٍ بَعِيدَةٍ عَنْ دِيَارِهِ».
BSB
BSB:
Therefore this is what the LORD says: ‘Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword. Your land will be divided by a measuring line, and you yourself will die on pagan soil. And Israel will surely go into exile, away from their homeland.’”
