'Амос 8 ' not found for the version: Bulgarian New Testament: Easy-to-Read Version.

Такова видение ми откри Господ Бог: ето, кошница с узрели плодове.

(A)И рече Той: какво виждаш, Амосе? Отговорих: кошница с узрели плодове. Тогава Господ ми рече: дойде краят на Моя народ Израиля: няма вече да му прощавам.

(B)Песните в чертозите през оня ден ще се обърнат на ридание, казва Господ Бог; много трупове ще има, навред ще ги хвърлят мълком.

Изслушайте това, вие, които жадувате да погълнете бедни и да погубите сиромаси, –

(C)вие, които казвате: кога ще премине новолунието, за да продаваме жито, и събота – да отворим житниците, да намалим мярката, да уголемим цената на сиклата и да измамваме с неверни къпони,

(D)да прикупваме неимотни със сребро, и сиромаси за двои обуща, а отсевки от жито да продаваме?

Кле се Господ в славата на Иакова: наистина няма навеки да забравя нито едно от делата им!

(E)Няма ли да се потресе земята от това, и няма ли да заплаче всеки живеещ на нея? Тя цяла ще се развълнува като река, и ще се подига и спуща като реката Египетска.

(F)И в оня ден, казва Господ Бог, ще направя слънцето да залезе по пладне и ще помрача земята посред бял ден;

10 (G)ще обърна празниците ви на тъга и всичките ви песни – на плач; ще туря вретище на всички чресла и плешивост – на всяка глава; и ще произведа в страната плач като за едничък син, и краят ѝ ще бъде като тъжовен ден.

11 (H)Ето, настъпват дни, казва Господ Бог, когато ще пратя на земята глад – не глад за хляб, не жажда за вода, а жажда за слушане думите Господни.

12 (I)И ще ходят от море до море, ще се скитат от север до изток, търсейки словото Господне, и няма да го намерят.

13 (J)В оня ден ще премират от жажда хубавите девици и момци,

14 (K)които се кълнат в греха самарийски и казват: жив е твоят бог, Дане, и жив е пътят за Вирсавия! – Те ще паднат и вече няма да станат.

The Coming Day of Bitter Mourning

(A)This is what the Lord God showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. And he said, (B)“Amos, what do you see?” And I said, (C)“A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me,

(D)“The end[a] has come upon my people Israel;
    I will never again pass by them.
(E)The songs of the temple[b] (F)shall become wailings[c] in that day,”
declares the Lord God.
(G)“So many dead bodies!”
“They are thrown everywhere!”
(H)“Silence!”
Hear this, (I)you who trample on the needy
    and bring the poor of the land to an end,
saying, “When will (J)the new moon be over,
    that we may sell grain?
And (K)the Sabbath,
    that we may offer wheat for sale,
that we may make (L)the ephah small and the shekel[d] great
    and deal deceitfully with false balances,
that we may buy the poor for (M)silver
    and the needy for a pair of sandals
    and sell the chaff of the wheat?”
The Lord has sworn by (N)the pride of Jacob:
“Surely (O)I will never forget any of their deeds.
(P)Shall not the land tremble on this account,
    and everyone mourn who dwells in it,
(Q)and all of it rise like the Nile,
    and be tossed about (R)and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?”
“And on that day,” declares the Lord God,
    (S)“I will make the sun go down at noon
    and darken the earth in broad daylight.
10 (T)I will turn your feasts into mourning
    and all your songs into lamentation;
(U)I will bring sackcloth on every waist
    (V)and baldness on every head;
(W)I will make it like the mourning for an only son
    and the end of it like a bitter day.
11 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord God,
    “when (X)I will send a famine on the land—
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water,
    (Y)but of hearing the words of the Lord.
12 (Z)They shall wander from sea to sea,
    and from north to east;
they shall run to and fro, to seek the word of the Lord,
    (AA)but they shall not find it.
13 (AB)“In that day the lovely virgins and the young men
    shall (AC)faint for thirst.
14 Those who swear by (AD)the Guilt of Samaria,
    and say, ‘As your god lives, O Dan’,
and, ‘As (AE)the Way of (AF)Beersheba lives’,
    they shall fall, and never rise again.”

La corbeille de fruits; annonce de la fin d’Israël

Le Seigneur, l’Eternel, m’envoya cette vision.

Voici, c’était une corbeille de fruits.
Il dit: Que vois-tu, Amos?
Je répondis: Une corbeille de fruits.
Et l’Eternel me dit: La fin est venue pour mon peuple d’Israël;
Je ne lui pardonnerai plus.
En ce jour-là, les chants du palais seront des gémissements,
Dit le Seigneur, l’Eternel;
On jettera partout en silence une multitude de cadavres.

Ecoutez ceci, vous qui dévorez l’indigent,
Et qui ruinez les malheureux du pays!
Vous dites: Quand la nouvelle lune sera-t-elle passée,
Afin que nous vendions du blé?
Quand finira le sabbat, afin que nous ouvrions les greniers?
Nous diminuerons l’épha, nous augmenterons le prix[a],
Nous falsifierons les balances pour tromper;
Puis nous achèterons les misérables pour de l’argent,
Et le pauvre pour une paire de souliers,
Et nous vendrons la criblure du froment.
L’Eternel l’a juré par la gloire de Jacob:
Je n’oublierai jamais aucune de leurs œuvres.
Le pays, à cause d’elles, ne sera-t-il pas ébranlé,
Et tous ses habitants ne seront-ils pas dans le deuil?
Le pays montera tout entier comme le fleuve,
Il se soulèvera et s’affaissera comme le fleuve d’Egypte.
En ce jour-là, dit le Seigneur, l’Eternel,
Je ferai coucher le soleil à midi,
Et j’obscurcirai la terre en plein jour;
10 Je changerai vos fêtes en deuil,
Et tous vos chants en lamentations,
Je couvrirai de sacs tous les reins,
Et je rendrai chauves toutes les têtes;
Je mettrai le pays dans le deuil comme pour un fils unique,
Et sa fin sera comme un jour d’amertume.

11 Voici, les jours viennent, dit le Seigneur, l’Eternel,
Où j’enverrai la famine dans le pays,
Non pas la disette du pain et la soif de l’eau,
Mais la faim et la soif d’entendre les paroles de l’Eternel.
12 Ils seront alors errants d’une mer à l’autre,
Du septentrion à l’orient,
Ils iront çà et là pour chercher la parole de l’Eternel,
Et ils ne la trouveront pas.
13 En ce jour, les belles jeunes filles et les jeunes hommes mourront de soif.
14 Ils jurent par le péché de Samarie,
Et ils disent: Vive ton Dieu, Dan!
Vive la voie de Beer-Schéba!
Mais ils tomberont, et ne se relèveront plus.

A Basket of Ripe Fruit

This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me:(A) a basket of ripe fruit. “What do you see,(B) Amos?(C)” he asked.

“A basket(D) of ripe fruit,” I answered.

Then the Lord said to me, “The time is ripe for my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.(E)

“In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “the songs in the temple will turn to wailing.[a](F) Many, many bodies—flung everywhere! Silence!(G)

Hear this, you who trample the needy
    and do away with the poor(H) of the land,(I)

saying,

“When will the New Moon(J) be over
    that we may sell grain,
and the Sabbath be ended
    that we may market(K) wheat?”(L)
skimping on the measure,
    boosting the price
    and cheating(M) with dishonest scales,(N)
buying the poor(O) with silver
    and the needy for a pair of sandals,
    selling even the sweepings with the wheat.(P)

The Lord has sworn by himself, the Pride of Jacob:(Q) “I will never forget(R) anything they have done.(S)

“Will not the land tremble(T) for this,
    and all who live in it mourn?
The whole land will rise like the Nile;
    it will be stirred up and then sink
    like the river of Egypt.(U)

“In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord,

“I will make the sun go down at noon
    and darken the earth in broad daylight.(V)
10 I will turn your religious festivals(W) into mourning
    and all your singing into weeping.(X)
I will make all of you wear sackcloth(Y)
    and shave(Z) your heads.
I will make that time like mourning for an only son(AA)
    and the end of it like a bitter day.(AB)

11 “The days are coming,”(AC) declares the Sovereign Lord,
    “when I will send a famine through the land—
not a famine of food or a thirst for water,
    but a famine(AD) of hearing the words of the Lord.(AE)
12 People will stagger from sea to sea
    and wander from north to east,
searching for the word of the Lord,
    but they will not find it.(AF)

13 “In that day

“the lovely young women and strong young men(AG)
    will faint because of thirst.(AH)
14 Those who swear by the sin of Samaria(AI)
    who say, ‘As surely as your god lives, Dan,’(AJ)
    or, ‘As surely as the god[b] of Beersheba(AK) lives’—
    they will fall,(AL) never to rise again.(AM)
