阿摩司书 9
Revised Chinese Union Version (Simplified Script) Shen Edition
耶和华的审判
9 我看见主站在祭坛旁，说：
“你要击打柱顶，使门槛震动，
要剪除众人当中为首的，
他们中最后的[a]，我必用刀杀戮；
无一人能逃避，无一人能逃脱。
2 “虽然他们挖透阴间，
我的手必从那里拉出他们；
虽然他们爬到天上，
我必从那里拿下他们；
3 虽然藏在迦密山顶，
我必在那里搜寻，擒拿他们；
虽然离开我眼前藏在海底，
我必在那里命令蛇咬他们；
4 虽然被仇敌掳去，
我也必在那里命令刀剑杀戮他们；
我必定睛在他们身上，
降祸不降福。”
5 万军的主耶和华触摸地，地就融化，
凡住在地上的都必悲哀；
全地必如尼罗河涨起，
如同埃及的尼罗河落下。
6 那在天上建造楼阁、
在地上奠定穹苍、
召唤海水、
使其倾倒在地面上的，
耶和华是他的名。
7 耶和华说：“以色列人哪，
我岂不是看你们如古实[b]人吗？
我岂不是领以色列人出埃及地，
也领非利士人出迦斐托，
领亚兰人出吉珥吗？
8 看哪，主耶和华的眼目
察看这有罪的国度，
要把它从地面上灭绝，
却不将雅各家灭绝净尽。”
这是耶和华说的。
9 “看哪，我发命令，
使以色列家在万国中飘流，
好像人用筛子筛谷，
连一粒也不落在地上。
10 我子民中所有的罪人，
就是那些说
‘灾祸必不靠近，必不追上我们’的，
都必死在刀下。”
以色列的复兴
11 “在那日，我必重建大卫倒塌的帐幕，
修补其中的缺口；
我必建立那遭破坏的，
重新修造，如古时一般，
12 使以色列人接管以东所剩余的
和所有称为我名下的国。
这是耶和华说的，他要行这事。
13 “看哪，日子将到，
耕种的必接续收割的，
踹葡萄的必接续撒种的；
大山要滴下甜酒，
小山也被漫过。”
这是耶和华说的。
14 “我要使以色列被掳的子民归回；
他们要重修荒废的城镇，
居住在其中；
栽植葡萄园，喝其中所出的酒，
修造果园，吃其中的果子。
15 我要将他们栽植于本地，
他们必不再从我所赐给他们的地上被拔出。”
这是耶和华—你的 神说的。
Amos 9
New King James Version
The Destruction of Israel
9 I saw the Lord standing by the altar, and He said:
“Strike the [a]doorposts, that the thresholds may shake,
And (A)break them on the heads of them all.
I will slay the last of them with the sword.
(B)He who flees from them shall not get away,
And he who escapes from them shall not be delivered.
2 “Though(C) they dig into [b]hell,
From there My hand shall take them;
(D)Though they climb up to heaven,
From there I will bring them down;
3 And though they (E)hide themselves on top of Carmel,
From there I will search and take them;
Though they hide from My sight at the bottom of the sea,
From there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them;
4 Though they go into captivity before their enemies,
From there (F)I will command the sword,
And it shall slay them.
(G)I will set My eyes on them for harm and not for good.”
5 The Lord God of hosts,
He who touches the earth and it (H)melts,
(I)And all who dwell there mourn;
All of it shall swell like [c]the River,
And subside like the River of Egypt.
6 He who builds His (J)layers[d] in the sky,
And has founded His strata in the earth;
Who (K)calls for the waters of the sea,
And pours them out on the face of the earth—
(L)The Lord is His name.
7 “Are you not like the [e]people of Ethiopia to Me,
O children of Israel?” says the Lord.
“Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt,
The (M)Philistines from (N)Caphtor,[f]
And the Syrians from (O)Kir?
8 “Behold, (P)the eyes of the Lord God are on the sinful kingdom,
And I (Q)will destroy it from the face of the earth;
Yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”
Says the Lord.
9 “For surely I will command,
And will [g]sift the house of Israel among all nations,
As grain is sifted in a sieve;
(R)Yet not the smallest [h]grain shall fall to the ground.
10 All the sinners of My people shall die by the sword,
(S)Who say, ‘The calamity shall not overtake nor confront us.’
Israel Will Be Restored
11 “On(T) that day I will raise up
The [i]tabernacle of David, which has fallen down,
And [j]repair its damages;
I will raise up its ruins,
And rebuild it as in the days of old;
12 (U)That they may possess the remnant of (V)Edom,[k]
And all the Gentiles who are called by My name,”
Says the Lord who does this thing.
13 “Behold, (W)the days are coming,” says the Lord,
“When the plowman shall overtake the reaper,
And the treader of grapes him who sows seed;
(X)The mountains shall drip with sweet wine,
And all the hills shall flow with it.
14 (Y)I will bring back the captives of My people Israel;
(Z)They shall build the waste cities and inhabit them;
They shall plant vineyards and drink wine from them;
They shall also make gardens and eat fruit from them.
15 I will plant them in their land,
(AA)And no longer shall they be pulled up
From the land I have given them,”
Says the Lord your God.
Amos 9
English Standard Version
The Destruction of Israel
9 I saw the Lord standing beside[a] the altar, and he said:
(A)“Strike the capitals until (B)the thresholds (C)shake,
(D)and shatter them on the heads of all the people;[b]
and those who are left of them I will kill with the sword;
(E)not one of them shall flee away;
not one of them shall escape.
2 (F)“If they dig into Sheol,
from there shall my hand take them;
(G)if they climb up to heaven,
from there I will bring them down.
3 If they hide themselves on (H)the top of Carmel,
from there I will search them out and take them;
(I)and if they hide from my sight at the bottom of the sea,
there I will command the serpent, and it shall bite them.
4 (J)And if they go into captivity before their enemies,
there I will command the sword, and it shall kill them;
(K)and I will fix my eyes upon them
for evil and not for good.”
5 The Lord God of hosts,
he who touches the earth and (L)it melts,
and all who dwell in it mourn,
(M)and all of it rises like the Nile,
(N)and sinks again, like the Nile of Egypt;
6 (O)who builds his upper chambers in the heavens
and founds his vault upon the earth;
(P)who calls for the waters of the sea
and pours them out upon the surface of the earth—
(Q)the Lord is his name.
7 “Are you not like (R)the Cushites to me,
O people of Israel?” declares the Lord.
(S)“Did I not bring up Israel from the land of Egypt,
and (T)the Philistines from (U)Caphtor and the Syrians from (V)Kir?
8 Behold, (W)the eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom,
and I will destroy it from the surface of the ground,
(X)except that I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob,”
declares the Lord.
9 “For behold, I will command,
(Y)and shake the house of Israel among all the nations
as one shakes with a sieve,
but no pebble shall fall to the earth.
10 All the sinners of my people shall die by the sword,
who say, (Z)‘Disaster shall not overtake or meet us.’
The Restoration of Israel
11 “In that day (AA)I will raise up
the booth of David that is fallen
and repair its breaches,
and raise up its ruins
and rebuild it as in the days of old,
12 (AB)that they may possess the remnant of Edom
and (AC)all the nations who are called by my name,”[c]
declares the Lord who does this.
13 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord,
(AD)“when the plowman shall overtake the reaper
and the treader of grapes him who sows the seed;
(AE)the mountains shall drip sweet wine,
and all the hills shall flow with it.
14 (AF)I will restore the fortunes of my people Israel,
and (AG)they shall rebuild the ruined cities and inhabit them;
(AH)they shall plant vineyards and drink their wine,
and they shall make gardens and eat their fruit.
15 (AI)I will plant them on their land,
(AJ)and they shall never again be uprooted
out of the land (AK)that I have given them,”
says the Lord your God.
Amos 9
Holman Christian Standard Bible
Fifth Vision: The Lord beside the Altar
9 I saw the Lord standing beside the altar,(A) and He said:
Strike the capitals of the pillars(B)
so that the thresholds shake;
knock them down on the heads of all the people.
Then I will kill the rest of them with the sword.(C)
None of those who flee will get away;(D)
none of the fugitives will escape.
2 If they dig down to Sheol,(E)
from there My hand will take them;
if they climb up to heaven,(F)
from there I will bring them down.
3 If they hide themselves
on the top of Carmel,
from there I will track them down(G)
and seize them;
if they conceal themselves
from My sight on the sea floor,(H)
from there I will command
the sea serpent to bite them.(I)
4 And if they are driven
by their enemies into captivity,(J)
from there I will command
the sword to kill them.(K)
I will fix My eyes on them
for harm and not for good.(L)
5 The Lord, the God of Hosts—
He touches the earth;(M)
it melts, and all who dwell in it mourn;
all of it rises like the Nile
and subsides like the Nile of Egypt.(N)
6 He builds His upper chambers
in the heavens(O)
and lays the foundation of His vault
on the earth.(P)
He summons the waters of the sea
and pours them out on the face of the earth.(Q)
Yahweh is His name.(R)
Announcement of Judgment
7 Israelites, are you not like the Cushites to Me?(S)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
Didn’t I bring Israel from the land of Egypt,
the Philistines from Caphtor,[a](T)
and the Arameans from Kir?(U)
8 Look, the eyes of the Lord God
are on the sinful kingdom,(V)
and I will destroy it
from the face of the earth.(W)
However, I will not totally destroy
the house of Jacob(X)—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
9 for I am about to give the command,
and I will shake the house of Israel(Y)
among all the nations,
as one shakes a sieve,
but not a pebble will fall to the ground.
10 All the sinners among My people(Z)
who say: “Disaster will never overtake[b]
or confront us,”(AA)
will die by the sword.
Announcement of Restoration
11 In that day
I will restore the fallen booth(AB) of David:(AC)
I will repair its gaps,
restore its ruins,(AD)
and rebuild it as in the days of old,(AE)
12 so that they may possess
the remnant of Edom(AF)
and all the nations
that are called by My name[c](AG)—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
He will do this.
13 Hear this! The days are coming—
this is the Lord’s declaration—
when the plowman will overtake the reaper(AH)
and the one who treads grapes,
the sower of seed.
The mountains will drip with sweet wine,
and all the hills will flow with it.(AI)
14 I will restore the fortunes of My people Israel.[d](AJ)
They will rebuild and occupy ruined cities,(AK)
plant vineyards and drink their wine,
make gardens and eat their produce.(AL)
15 I will plant them on their land,
and they will never again be uprooted
from the land I have given them.(AM)
Yahweh your God has spoken.
