¶ Se konsa Seyè a, Bondye a, fè m' fè yon vizyon. Nan vizyon an mwen wè Seyè a t'ap fè yon rafal krikèt vèt. Se te nan epòk yo te fin koupe pòsyon pa wa a nan jaden yo. Chak plant yo te fèk ap boujonnen ankò.

Lè krikèt vèt yo te fin manje plant ki te nan peyi a, mwen di: -Tanpri, Seyè, Bondye, padonnen pèp ou a. Ki jan pou pitit pitit Jakòb yo fè kanpe ankò? Yo tou fèb.

Seyè a chanje lide. Li di: -Sa ou te wè a p'ap rive ankò.

Se konsa, Seyè a, Bondye a, fè m' fè yon lòt vizyon. Nan vizyon an, mwen wè Seyè a t'ap voye yon dife pou l' devore pèp la pou pini l'. Dife a te fin boule gwo lanmè ki anba tè a, li t'ap devore tout jaden.

Mwen di: -Tanpri, Seyè, Bondye, pa fè sa. Ki jan pou pitit pitit Jakòb yo fè kanpe ankò? Yo tou fèb.

Seyè a chanje lide, li di: -Sa a tou p'ap rive.

Se konsa, Seyè a fè m' fè yon lòt vizyon ankò. Nan vizyon an, mwen wè Seyè a te kanpe bò yon mi yo te moute tou dwat. Li te gen yon filaplon nan men l'.

Lè sa a, Seyè a mande m': -Kisa ou wè la a, Amòs? Mwen reponn li: -Yon filaplon. Lè sa a, li di m': -M'ap sèvi ak filaplon sa a pou m' fè pèp la konnen li tankou yon miray ki panche prèt pou tonbe. Mwen p'ap fè pa yo ankò.

Mwen pral kraze tout kote pitit pitit Izarak yo te konn adore m' sou mòn yo. Mwen pral fè tout kay pitit pitit Izrayèl yo te mete apa pou mwen yo tounen mazi. M'ap fè lagè ak fanmi Jewoboram lan, m'ap wete gouvènman an nan men yo.

10 ¶ Amatsya, prèt nan lavil Betèl la, voye di Jewoboram, wa Izrayèl la: -Men Amòs ap moute konplo sou do ou nan mitan pèp Izrayèl la. Li soti pou l' fini ak peyi a ak pawòl l'ap di yo.

11 Men sa l'ap mache di: Jewoboram gen pou l' mouri nan lagè. Y'ap pran moun Izrayèl yo lakay yo, y'ap depòte yo byen lwen nan peyi etranje.

12 Apre sa, Amatsya pale ak Amòs, li di l' konsa: -Divinò, al fè wout ou. Ale vit nan peyi Jida a! Al bay mesaj ou yo laba. Y'a peye ou pou sa!

13 Men isit la, lavil Betèl, pito ou sispann bay mesaj ou yo si ou konn bout! Paske, se isit la wa a vin adore. Se yon tanp nasyonal pou tout peyi a.

14 Amòs reponn Amatsya: -Monchè, pwofèt pa metye m'. Nitou, mwen pa fè pati sosyete moun k'ap fè metye pwofèt. Metye m' se gade bèt, se okipe pye sikomò.

15 Men, Seyè a pran m' nan pye travay mwen, dèyè bèt mwen yo, li ban m' lòd pou m' al fè pèp Izrayèl la konnen mesaj li voye ba yo.

16 Koulye a menm, koute pawòl Seyè a voye di ou: Ou menm w'ap mande m' pou m' pa bay ankenn mesaj sou pèp Izrayèl la, pou m' sispann pale sou pitit Izarak yo.

17 Poutèt sa, Amatsya, men sa Seyè a di: Madanm ou ap tounen jennès nan lavil la! Pitit gason ou yo ak pitit fi ou yo ap mouri nan lagè! Y'ap pran tè ou yo, y'ap separe yo moso pa moso. Ou menm, ou gen pou ou mouri nan yon peyi etranje kote yo pa sèvi Seyè a. Pèp Izrayèl la menm, y'ap pran l', y'ap depòte l' byen lwen peyi l'.

Locusts, Fire and a Plumb Line

This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me:(A) He was preparing swarms of locusts(B) after the king’s share had been harvested and just as the late crops were coming up. When they had stripped the land clean,(C) I cried out, “Sovereign Lord, forgive! How can Jacob survive?(D) He is so small!(E)

So the Lord relented.(F)

“This will not happen,” the Lord said.(G)

This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me: The Sovereign Lord was calling for judgment by fire;(H) it dried up the great deep and devoured(I) the land. Then I cried out, “Sovereign Lord, I beg you, stop! How can Jacob survive? He is so small!(J)

So the Lord relented.(K)

“This will not happen either,” the Sovereign Lord said.(L)

This is what he showed me: The Lord was standing by a wall that had been built true to plumb,[a] with a plumb line[b] in his hand. And the Lord asked me, “What do you see,(M) Amos?(N)

“A plumb line,(O)” I replied.

Then the Lord said, “Look, I am setting a plumb line among my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.(P)

“The high places(Q) of Isaac will be destroyed
    and the sanctuaries(R) of Israel will be ruined;
    with my sword I will rise against the house of Jeroboam.(S)

Amos and Amaziah

10 Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel(T) sent a message to Jeroboam(U) king of Israel: “Amos is raising a conspiracy(V) against you in the very heart of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words.(W) 11 For this is what Amos is saying:

“‘Jeroboam will die by the sword,
    and Israel will surely go into exile,(X)
    away from their native land.’”(Y)

12 Then Amaziah said to Amos, “Get out, you seer!(Z) Go back to the land of Judah. Earn your bread there and do your prophesying there.(AA) 13 Don’t prophesy anymore at Bethel,(AB) because this is the king’s sanctuary and the temple(AC) of the kingdom.(AD)

14 Amos answered Amaziah, “I was neither a prophet(AE) nor the son of a prophet, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees.(AF) 15 But the Lord took me from tending the flock(AG) and said to me, ‘Go,(AH) prophesy(AI) to my people Israel.’(AJ) 16 Now then, hear(AK) the word of the Lord. You say,

“‘Do not prophesy against(AL) Israel,
    and stop preaching against the descendants of Isaac.’

17 “Therefore this is what the Lord says:

“‘Your wife will become a prostitute(AM) in the city,
    and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword.
Your land will be measured and divided up,
    and you yourself will die in a pagan[c] country.
And Israel will surely go into exile,(AN)
    away from their native land.(AO)’”
