阿摩司书 2
Chinese New Version (Simplified)
惩罚摩押
2 “耶和华这样说：
‘摩押三番四次犯罪，
我必不收回惩罚他的命令；
因为他把以东王的骸骨焚烧成灰。
2 我必降火在摩押，
烧毁加略的堡垒；
在扰攘、吶喊、吹角声中，
摩押必被消灭。
3 我必剪除他的掌权者，
也把他所有的领袖一同杀死。’
这是耶和华说的。
惩罚犹大
4 “耶和华这样说：
‘犹大三番四次犯罪，
我必不收回惩罚他的命令；
因为他弃绝耶和华的律法，
不遵守他的典章；
反被他们列祖跟从的偶像，
使他们走错了路。
5 我必降火在犹大，
烧毁耶路撒冷的堡垒。’
惩罚以色列
6 “耶和华这样说：
‘以色列三番四次犯罪，
我必不收回惩罚他的命令；
因为他为了银子卖义人，
为了一双鞋卖穷人。
7 他们践踏穷人的头，
好象践踏地面的尘土；
他们把困苦人应有的权益夺去；
儿子和父亲与同一个女子亲近，
故意亵渎我的圣名。
8 他们在各祭坛旁，
躺卧在别人抵押的衣服上面；
在他们 神的殿中，
饮用拿剥削回来的钱所买的酒。
9 我不是在他们面前把亚摩利人消灭了吗？
亚摩利人虽像香柏树高大，
像橡树那样坚固；
我却要灭绝它树上的果子，
拔除树下的根。
10 我不是带你们出埃及地，
领你们在旷野度过四十年，
叫你们得着亚摩利人的地为业吗？
11 我从你们子孙中兴起先知，
从年轻人中兴起拿细耳人；
以色列人哪！这不是事实吗？’
这是耶和华的宣告。
12 ‘但你们迫使拿细耳人喝酒，
吩咐先知说：不要说预言。
13 看哪！我要使你脚下的地摇荡，
好象满载禾捆的车子摇荡一样。
14 行动迅速的不能逃走，
强而有力的不能施展他的勇力，
勇士也不能救自己；
15 拿弓的人站立不住，
跑得快的不能逃走，
骑马的也不能救自己。
16 到那日，最勇敢的战士，
也是赤身逃跑。’
这是耶和华的宣告。”
Amos 2
New Life Version
Moab
2 The Lord says, “For three sins of Moab and for four, I will not hold back punishment. He burned the bones of the king of Edom to ashes. 2 So I will send fire upon Moab, and it will destroy the strong-places of Kerioth. Moab will die among much noise, with cries of war and the sound of a horn. 3 I will kill the ruler of Moab and all his sons with him,” says the Lord.
Judah
4 The Lord says, “For three sins of Judah and for four, I will not hold back punishment. They turned away from the Law of the Lord. They have not obeyed His Laws. They have gone the wrong way, following the lies of their fathers. 5 So I will send fire upon Judah, and it will destroy the strong-places of Jerusalem.”
God Judges Israel
6 The Lord says, “For three sins of Israel and for four, I will not hold back punishment. They sell those who are right and good for money. To get shoes, they sell people who are in need. 7 They crush those who are poor in the dust of the earth with their feet. They push the poor out of the way. A man and his father go to the same girl and sin against My holy name. 8 They lie down beside every altar on clothing taken as trust for promises. And in the house of their God they drink the wine which was paid by those who have done wrong.
9 “I destroyed the Amorite before them, who was as tall as the cedar trees and as strong as the oaks. I destroyed his fruit above and his root below. 10 I brought you up from the land of Egypt and led you in the desert for forty years to give you the land of the Amorite. 11 Then I raised up some of your sons to speak for Me, and some of your young men to be Nazirites. Is this not true, you sons of Israel?” says the Lord. 12 “But you made the Nazirites drink wine. And you told the men who speak for Me not to speak. 13 Now I will crush you down like a wagon is crushed under a heavy load of grain. 14 Even the fast man will not get away. The strong man will not keep his strength. And the powerful man will not save his life. 15 He who uses the bow will not stand. The fast runner will not get away. The horseman will not save his life. 16 Even the strongest of heart among the men of war will run away without clothes on that day,” says the Lord.
Amos 2
King James Version
2 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Moab, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he burned the bones of the king of Edom into lime:
2 But I will send a fire upon Moab, and it shall devour the palaces of Kirioth: and Moab shall die with tumult, with shouting, and with the sound of the trumpet:
3 And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all the princes thereof with him, saith the Lord.
4 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have despised the law of the Lord, and have not kept his commandments, and their lies caused them to err, after the which their fathers have walked:
5 But I will send a fire upon Judah, and it shall devour the palaces of Jerusalem.
6 Thus saith the Lord; For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of shoes;
7 That pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father will go in unto the same maid, to profane my holy name:
8 And they lay themselves down upon clothes laid to pledge by every altar, and they drink the wine of the condemned in the house of their god.
9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.
10 Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not even thus, O ye children of Israel? saith the Lord.
12 But ye gave the Nazarites wine to drink; and commanded the prophets, saying, Prophesy not.
13 Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart is pressed that is full of sheaves.
14 Therefore the flight shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his force, neither shall the mighty deliver himself:
15 Neither shall he stand that handleth the bow; and he that is swift of foot shall not deliver himself: neither shall he that rideth the horse deliver himself.
16 And he that is courageous among the mighty shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord.
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.
