阿摩司书 1
Chinese Contemporary Bible (Simplified)
1 犹大王乌西雅、约阿施的儿子以色列王耶罗波安执政期间,大地震前两年,提哥亚的牧人阿摩司看到了关于以色列的异象。以下是阿摩司的话。
2 他说:
“耶和华在锡安[a]怒吼,
在耶路撒冷呼喊。
牧人的草场枯干,
迦密山顶枯黄。”
对亚兰的审判
3 耶和华说:
“大马士革人三番四次地犯罪,
我必不收回对他们的惩罚,
因为他们用打粮食的铁器蹂躏基列。
4 所以我要降火在哈薛王家,
烧毁便·哈达王的城堡。
5 我要折断大马士革城的门闩,
铲除亚文平原[b]的居民和伯·伊甸的掌权者,
使亚兰人被掳到吉珥[c]。
这是耶和华说的。”
对非利士的审判
6 耶和华说:
“迦萨人三番四次地犯罪,
我必不收回对他们的惩罚,
因为他们把被掳之人全都带走,
卖到以东做奴隶。
7 所以,我要降火在迦萨的城墙上,
烧毁它的城堡。
8 我要铲除亚实突的居民和亚实基伦的掌权者,
伸手攻击以革伦,
剩下的非利士人都要灭亡。
这是主耶和华说的。”
对泰尔的审判
9 耶和华说:
“泰尔人三番四次地犯罪,
我必不收回对他们的惩罚,
因为他们背弃弟兄之盟,
把被掳之人都卖到以东。
10 所以,我要降火在泰尔的城墙上,
烧毁它的城堡。”
对以东的审判
11 耶和华说:
“以东人三番四次地犯罪,
我必不收回对他们的惩罚,
因为他们拔刀追赶自己的弟兄,
没有半点怜悯之心;
他们怒气不息,永怀愤怒。
12 所以,我要降火在提幔,
烧毁波斯拉的城堡。”
对亚扪的审判
13 耶和华说:
“亚扪人三番四次地犯罪,
我必不收回对他们的惩罚,
因为他们为了扩张领土,
竟剖开基列孕妇的肚腹。
14 所以,我要在战争的吶喊声中,
在暴风雨吹袭的时候,
降火在拉巴的城墙上,
烧毁它的城堡。
15 他们的君王和首领都要被掳。
这是耶和华说的。”
Amos 1
Orthodox Jewish Bible
1 The words of Amos, who was among the shepherds of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Yisroel in the yamim of Uziyah Melech Yehudah, and in the yamim of Yarov‘am ben Yoash Melech Yisroel, two years before the earthquake.
2 And he said, Hashem roars from Tziyon, and utters His voice from Yerushalayim; and the pastures of the ro’im (shepherds) mourn, and the summit of Mt Carmel withers.
3 Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha’im of Damascus, even for arba’ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gil‘ad with threshing sledges of barzel (iron);
4 But I will send an eish onto Bais Chatzael, which shall devour the fortresses of Ben-hadad.
5 I will break down also the gate bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from Bikeat-Aven, and him that holdeth the shevet (sceptre) from Bais Eden; and the people of Aram shall go into golus unto Kir, saith Hashem.
6 Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha’im of Azah (Gaza), even for arba’ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the golus shleimah (entire exiled population), to deliver them up to Edom;
7 But I will send an eish on the chomah (wall) of Azah (Gaza), which shall devour the fortresses thereof;
8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the shevet (sceptre) from Ashkelon, and I will turn Mine hand against Ekron; and the she’erit Pelishtim shall perish, saith Adonoi Hashem.
9 Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha’im of Tzor, even for arba’ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the golus shleimah to Edom, and remembered not the brit achim;
10 But I will send an eish on the chomah (wall) of Tzor, which shall devour the fortresses thereof.
11 Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha’im of Edom, even for arba’ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the cherev, and did cast off all rachamim, and his anger did rage perpetually, and he kept his wrath netzach;
12 But I will send an eish upon Teman, which shall devour the fortresses of Botzrah.
13 Thus saith Hashem: For shloshah peysha’im of the Bnei Ammon, even for arba’ah, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped open the women with child of Gil‘ad, that they might enlarge their border;
14 But I will kindle an eish in the chomah (wall) of Rabbah, and it shall devour the fortresses thereof, with war cries in the yom milchamah, with a tempest in the yom sufah (day of the storm);
15 And their melech shall go into golus, he and his sarim (princes) together, saith Hashem.
Amos 1
New International Version
1 The words of Amos, one of the shepherds of Tekoa(A)—the vision he saw concerning Israel two years before the earthquake,(B) when Uzziah(C) was king of Judah and Jeroboam(D) son of Jehoash[a] was king of Israel.(E)
2 He said:
“The Lord roars(F) from Zion
and thunders(G) from Jerusalem;(H)
the pastures of the shepherds dry up,
and the top of Carmel(I) withers.”(J)
Judgment on Israel’s Neighbors
3 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Damascus,(K)
even for four, I will not relent.(L)
Because she threshed Gilead
with sledges having iron teeth,
4 I will send fire(M) on the house of Hazael(N)
that will consume the fortresses(O) of Ben-Hadad.(P)
5 I will break down the gate(Q) of Damascus;
I will destroy the king who is in[b] the Valley of Aven[c]
and the one who holds the scepter in Beth Eden.(R)
The people of Aram will go into exile to Kir,(S)”
says the Lord.(T)
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Gaza,(U)
even for four, I will not relent.(V)
Because she took captive whole communities
and sold them to Edom,(W)
7 I will send fire on the walls of Gaza
that will consume her fortresses.
8 I will destroy the king[d] of Ashdod(X)
and the one who holds the scepter in Ashkelon.
I will turn my hand(Y) against Ekron,
till the last of the Philistines(Z) are dead,”(AA)
says the Sovereign Lord.(AB)
9 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Tyre,(AC)
even for four, I will not relent.(AD)
Because she sold whole communities of captives to Edom,
disregarding a treaty of brotherhood,(AE)
10 I will send fire on the walls of Tyre
that will consume her fortresses.(AF)”
11 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Edom,(AG)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he pursued his brother with a sword(AH)
and slaughtered the women of the land,
because his anger raged continually
and his fury flamed unchecked,(AI)
12 I will send fire on Teman(AJ)
that will consume the fortresses of Bozrah.(AK)”
13 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Ammon,(AL)
even for four, I will not relent.
Because he ripped open the pregnant women(AM) of Gilead
in order to extend his borders,
14 I will set fire to the walls of Rabbah(AN)
that will consume(AO) her fortresses
amid war cries(AP) on the day of battle,
amid violent winds(AQ) on a stormy day.
15 Her king[e] will go into exile,
he and his officials together,(AR)”
says the Lord.(AS)

Amos’ Vision of Yahweh’s Fire
1 The words of Amos, who was among the (A)sheepherders from (B)Tekoa, which he beheld in visions concerning Israel in the days of (C)Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of (D)Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the (E)earthquake. 2 And he said,
“[a](F)Yahweh roars from Zion
And from Jerusalem He gives forth His voice;
And the shepherds’ (G)pasture grounds mourn,
And the [b](H)top of Carmel dries up.”
3 Thus says Yahweh,
“For (I)three transgressions of (J)Damascus and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.
4 So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael,
And it will consume the citadels of (K)Ben-hadad.
5 I will also (L)break the gate bar of Damascus
And cut off the inhabitant from the [c]valley of Aven
And him who holds the scepter from Beth-eden;
So the people of Aram will go into exile to (M)Kir,”
Says Yahweh.
6 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (N)Gaza and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they took away into exile the whole community of exiles
To (O)deliver it up to Edom.
7 So I will send fire upon the wall of Gaza,
And it will consume her citadels.
8 I will also cut off the inhabitant from (P)Ashdod
And him who holds the scepter from (Q)Ashkelon;
I will even turn My hand against Ekron,
And the remnant of the (R)Philistines will perish,”
Says Lord Yahweh.
9 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (S)Tyre and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they delivered up the whole community of exiles to Edom
And did not remember the covenant of [d](T)brotherhood.
10 So I will (U)send fire upon the wall of Tyre,
And it will consume her citadels.”
11 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of (V)Edom and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because he (W)pursued his brother with the sword
While he corrupted his compassion;
And his anger also (X)tore continually,
And he kept his wrath forever.
12 So I will send fire upon (Y)Teman,
And it will consume the citadels of Bozrah.”
13 Thus says Yahweh,
“For three transgressions of the sons of (Z)Ammon and for four
I will not turn back its punishment
Because they (AA)ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead
In order to (AB)enlarge their borders.
14 So I will kindle a fire on the wall of (AC)Rabbah,
And it will consume her citadels
Amid a (AD)loud shout on the day of battle
And a (AE)storm on the day of tempest.
15 And their (AF)king will go into exile,
He and his princes together,”
Says Yahweh.
