Amós 6
Nueva Versión Internacional (Castilian)
6 ¡Ay de los que viven tranquilos en Sión
y de los que viven confiados en el monte de Samaria!
¡Ay de los notables de la nación más importante,
a quienes acude el pueblo de Israel!
2 Pasad a Calné y observadla;
id de allí a Jamat la grande,
bajad luego a Gat de los filisteos.
¿Acaso sois vosotros superiores a estos reinos,
o es más grande su territorio que el vuestro?
3 Vosotros creéis alejar el día de la desgracia,
pero estáis acercando el imperio de la violencia.
4 Vosotros que os acostáis en camas incrustadas de marfil
y os arrellanáis en divanes;
que coméis corderos selectos
y terneros engordados;
5 que, a la manera de David,
improvisáis canciones al son de la cítara
e inventáis instrumentos musicales;
6 que bebéis vino en tazones
y os perfumáis con las esencias más finas
sin afligiros por la ruina de José,
7 marcharéis a la cabeza de los desterrados,
y así terminará el banquete de los holgazanes.
8 El Señor omnipotente jura por sí mismo;
esto afirma el Señor Dios Todopoderoso:
«Yo detesto la arrogancia de Jacob;
yo aborrezco sus fortalezas;
por eso entregaré la ciudad al enemigo,
con todo lo que hay en ella».
9 Sucederá que, si en una casa quedan diez hombres con vida, todos morirán. 10 Y, cuando vengan a la casa para levantar los cadáveres y quemarlos, algún pariente le preguntará a otro que ande en la casa: «¿Queda alguien más contigo?» Y aquel le responderá: «No». Entonces le dirá: «¡Cállate! No vayamos a mencionar el nombre del Señor».
11 Mira, el Señor da la orden
de golpear la casa grande hasta hacerla añicos
y de hacer trizas la casa pequeña.
12 ¿Acaso galopan los caballos por las rocas
o se ara en estas con bueyes?
Pero vosotros habéis convertido el derecho en veneno,
y en amargura el fruto de la justicia.
13 Vosotros os regocijáis por la conquista de Lo Debar[a]
y agregáis: «¿No fue con nuestras propias fuerzas
como nos apoderamos de Carnayin?»[b]
14 «Por tanto, pueblo de Israel,
voy a levantar contra ti una nación
que te oprimirá desde Lebó Jamat[c]
hasta el torrente del Arabá»,
afirma el Señor, el Dios Todopoderoso.
Amos 6
New International Version
Woe to the Complacent
6 Woe to you(A) who are complacent(B) in Zion,
and to you who feel secure(C) on Mount Samaria,(D)
you notable men of the foremost nation,
to whom the people of Israel come!(E)
2 Go to Kalneh(F) and look at it;
go from there to great Hamath,(G)
and then go down to Gath(H) in Philistia.
Are they better off than(I) your two kingdoms?
Is their land larger than yours?
3 You put off the day of disaster
and bring near a reign of terror.(J)
4 You lie on beds adorned with ivory
and lounge on your couches.(K)
You dine on choice lambs
and fattened calves.(L)
5 You strum away on your harps(M) like David
and improvise on musical instruments.(N)
6 You drink wine(O) by the bowlful
and use the finest lotions,
but you do not grieve(P) over the ruin of Joseph.(Q)
7 Therefore you will be among the first to go into exile;(R)
your feasting and lounging will end.(S)
The Lord Abhors the Pride of Israel
8 The Sovereign Lord has sworn by himself(T)—the Lord God Almighty declares:
“I abhor(U) the pride of Jacob(V)
and detest his fortresses;(W)
I will deliver up(X) the city
and everything in it.(Y)”
9 If ten(Z) people are left in one house, they too will die. 10 And if the relative who comes to carry the bodies out of the house to burn them[a](AA) asks anyone who might be hiding there, “Is anyone else with you?” and he says, “No,” then he will go on to say, “Hush!(AB) We must not mention the name of the Lord.”
11 For the Lord has given the command,
and he will smash(AC) the great house(AD) into pieces
and the small house into bits.(AE)
Amos 6
English Standard Version
Woe to Those at Ease in Zion
6 (A)“Woe to those who are at ease in Zion,
and to those who feel secure on (B)the mountain of Samaria,
(C)the notable men of (D)the first of the nations,
to whom the house of Israel comes!
2 Pass over to (E)Calneh, and see,
and from there go to (F)Hamath the great;
then go down to (G)Gath of the Philistines.
(H)Are you better than these kingdoms?
Or is their territory greater than your territory,
3 (I)O you who put far away the day of disaster
(J)and bring near the seat of violence?
4 “Woe to those (K)who lie on (L)beds of ivory
(M)and stretch themselves out on their couches,
and eat lambs from the flock
(N)and calves from the midst of the stall,
5 (O)who sing idle songs to the sound of the harp
and like David (P)invent for themselves instruments of music,
6 (Q)who drink wine in bowls
and (R)anoint themselves with the finest oils,
but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph!
7 (S)Therefore they shall now be the first of those who go into exile,
and the revelry of those who stretch themselves out shall pass away.”
8 (T)The Lord God has sworn by himself, declares the Lord, the God of hosts:
“I abhor (U)the pride of Jacob
and hate his strongholds,
(V)and I will deliver up the city and all that is in it.”
9 And (W)if ten men remain in one house, they shall die. 10 And when one's relative, (X)the one who anoints him for burial, shall take him up to bring the bones out of the house, and shall say to him who is in the innermost parts of the house, “Is there still anyone with you?” he shall say, “No”; and he shall say, (Y)“Silence! We must not mention the name of the Lord.”
11 For behold, the Lord commands,
and (Z)the great house shall be struck down into fragments,
and the little house into bits.
12 Do horses run on rocks?
Does one plow there[a] with oxen?
(AA)But you have turned justice into (AB)poison
(AC)and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood[b]—
13 you who rejoice in Lo-debar,[c]
who say, (AD)“Have we not by our own strength
captured Karnaim[d] for ourselves?”
14 “For behold, (AE)I will raise up against you a nation,
O house of Israel,” declares the Lord, the God of hosts;
“and they shall oppress you from (AF)Lebo-hamath
to the Brook of (AG)the Arabah.”
