Амос 2
Russian New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version
Наказание Моава
2 Так говорит Господь:
«Я не пощажу и накажу народ Моава
за многие преступления его.
Он дотла сжёг тело царя Едома,
огнём превратив его кости в известь.
2 Я пошлю огонь на Моав,
и поглотит он высокие башни Кериофа[a],
и умрёт Моав под звуки трубы
и воинственные возгласы.
3 Я уничтожу царей[b] Моава,
а также убью всех чиновников этой страны».
Так объявляет Господь.
Наказание Иуды
4 Так говорит Господь:
«Жители Иуды отвергли учения Господа
и не подчинились Его законам.
Их предки верили лжи[c],
и эта ложь заставила народ Иудеи оставить Бога.
И поэтому Я не пощажу и накажу жителей Иуды
за многие преступления, совершённые ими.
5 Я пошлю огонь на Иуду
и он поглотит высокие башни Иерусалима».
Наказание Израиля
6 Так говорит Господь:
«Я не пощажу и накажу жителей Израиля
за многие преступления, совершённые ими.
Потому что они за бесценок,
как рабов продавали невинных людей,
продавали бедняков по цене пары сандалий.
7 Они толкали бедный народ лицом в грязь
и были несправедливы к угнетённым,
а отцы и сыновья ходили к одной женщине.
Народ Израиля обесчестил имя Моё.
8 Израильтяне сидели перед алтарями,
постелив одежду, которую брали у бедных под залог,
а также брали с людей штрафы
и покупали на них вино,
которое пили в храмах своих богов.
9 Я уничтожил народ аморреев[d] у них на глазах,
хотя и был он высок как кедр и силён как дуб.
Я уничтожил его плоды сверху и корни снизу[e].
10 Я вывел вас из Египта
и сорок лет водил по пустыне,
а затем помог вам унаследовать Аморрейскую землю.
11 Из ваших сынов Я избрал пророков,
а из ваших юношей—назореев.
Израильтяне, Я вам правду говорю!»
Так объявляет Господь:
12 «Но вы заставляли назореев нарушать их обеты[f],
а пророкам велели не пророчествовать.
13 Вы для Меня словно тяжёлый груз.
Вы придавили Меня, как давит телега,
доверху нагруженная снопами.
14 Никому не удастся спастись:
даже быстрый не убежит, и сильный не устоит,
и храбрый воин не спасёт свою жизнь.
15 Не спасётся и тот, у кого есть лук и стрелы,
не убежит и самый быстрый бегун,
не спасёт свою жизнь и всадник на коне.
16 В тот день даже самые отважные воины
будут убегать в такой спешке,
что даже не успеют взять свою одежду».
Так объявляет Господь.

Amos 2
New King James Version
Judgment on Israel
2 Thus says the Lord:
(A)“For three transgressions of Moab, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because he (B)burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.
2 But I will send a fire upon Moab,
And it shall devour the palaces of (C)Kerioth;
Moab shall die with tumult,
With shouting and trumpet sound.
3 And I will cut off (D)the judge from its midst,
And slay all its princes with him,”
Says the Lord.
Judgment on Judah
4 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of (E)Judah, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
(F)Because they have despised the law of the Lord,
And have not kept His commandments.
(G)Their lies lead them astray,
Lies (H)which their fathers followed.
5 (I)But I will send a fire upon Judah,
And it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.”
Judgment on Israel
6 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of (J)Israel, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because (K)they sell the righteous for silver,
And the (L)poor for a pair of sandals.
7 They [a]pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor,
And (M)pervert the way of the humble.
(N)A man and his father go in to the same girl,
(O)To defile My holy name.
8 They lie down (P)by every altar on clothes (Q)taken in pledge,
And drink the wine of [b]the condemned in the house of their god.
9 “Yet it was I who destroyed the (R)Amorite before them,
Whose height was like the (S)height of the cedars,
And he was as strong as the oaks;
Yet I (T)destroyed his fruit above
And his roots beneath.
10 Also it was (U)I who brought you up from the land of Egypt,
And (V)led you forty years through the wilderness,
To possess the land of the Amorite.
11 I raised up some of your sons as (W)prophets,
And some of your young men as (X)Nazirites.
Is it not so, O you children of Israel?”
Says the Lord.
12 “But you gave the Nazirites wine to drink,
And commanded the prophets (Y)saying,
‘Do not prophesy!’
13 “Behold,(Z) I am [c]weighed down by you,
As a cart full of sheaves [d]is weighed down.
14 (AA)Therefore [e]flight shall perish from the swift,
The strong shall not strengthen his power,
(AB)Nor shall the mighty [f]deliver himself;
15 He shall not stand who handles the bow,
The swift of foot shall not [g]escape,
Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself.
16 The most [h]courageous men of might
Shall flee naked in that day,”
Says the Lord.
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.
