Amos 8
Maori Bible
8 I whakakitea ano tenei e te Ariki, e Ihowa, ki ahau; na, he kete hua raumati.
2 Na ka mea ia, Ko te aha te kitea ana e koe, e Amoho? Ano ra ko ahau, He kete hua raumati. Ano ra ko Ihowa ki ahau, Kua tae mai te mutunga ki taku iwi, ki a Iharaira: e kore ta ratou e whakarerea noatia e ahau a muri ake nei.
3 He aue ano nga waiata o te temepara i taua ra, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa; ka maha nga tinana mate i nga wahi katoa; ka akiritia pukutia atu.
4 Whakarongo ki tenei, e te hunga i horomia ai te rawakore, i meinga ai te hunga iti o te whenua kia ngohe;
5 E ki ana koutou, A hea pahemo ai te kowhititianga marama, kia hoko witi ai tatou? te hapati hoki, kia whakaputaia atu ai te witi e tatou? ka meinga te epa kia iti, te hekere kia nui, me te teka ki nga pauna tinihanga;
6 Kia hokona ai e tatou nga ware ki te hiriwa, te rawakore ki nga hu e rua; na, ko te witi rukenga me hoko atu.
7 Kua oatitia e Ihowa te nui o Hakopa, E kore ahau e wareware ki tetahi o a ratou mahi a ake ake.
8 E kore ianei te whenua e wiri ki tenei? e kore ianei te hunga katoa e noho ana i reira e tangi? ae ra, ka pari katoa ake nei hoki ano ko te awa; ka akina e te hau, ka hoki iho ano, ka pera me te awa o Ihipa.
9 Na i taua ra, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, ka meinga e ahau te ra kia toene i te awatea, a ka pouri i ahau te whenua i te mea e marama ana ano te ra:
10 Ka puta ke ano i ahau a koutou hakari hei tangihanga, a koutou waiata katoa hei apakura; he taratara taku kakahu mo nga hope katoa; mo nga mahunga katoa he pakira; ka rite i ahau ki te tangihanga ki te huatahi, a ko tona mutunga hei ra mamae.
11 Nana, kei te haere mai nga ra, e ai ta te Ariki, ta Ihowa, e tukua ai e ahau he hemokai ki te whenua, ehara i te hemokai taro, ehara ano i te matewai; engari he hiahia kia rongo i nga kupu a Ihowa.
12 A ka atiutiu atu ratou i tetahi moana ki tetahi moana, i te raki ki te rawhiti; ka kopikopiko, he rapu i te kupu a Ihowa; heoi e kore e kitea.
13 I taua ra ka hemo nga wahine ataahua, me nga taitama, i te matewai.
14 Na, ko te hunga e oati ana i te he o Hamaria, e ki ana, Kei te ora tou Atua, e Rana; me tenei, Kei te ora te tikanga o Peerehepa; ka taka rawa ratou, e kore ano e ara a muri ake nei.

A Basket of Ripe Fruit
8 This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me:(A) a basket of ripe fruit. 2 “What do you see,(B) Amos?(C)” he asked.
“A basket(D) of ripe fruit,” I answered.
Then the Lord said to me, “The time is ripe for my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.(E)
3 “In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord, “the songs in the temple will turn to wailing.[a](F) Many, many bodies—flung everywhere! Silence!(G)”
5 saying,
“When will the New Moon(J) be over
that we may sell grain,
and the Sabbath be ended
that we may market(K) wheat?”(L)—
skimping on the measure,
boosting the price
and cheating(M) with dishonest scales,(N)
6 buying the poor(O) with silver
and the needy for a pair of sandals,
selling even the sweepings with the wheat.(P)
7 The Lord has sworn by himself, the Pride of Jacob:(Q) “I will never forget(R) anything they have done.(S)
8 “Will not the land tremble(T) for this,
and all who live in it mourn?
The whole land will rise like the Nile;
it will be stirred up and then sink
like the river of Egypt.(U)
9 “In that day,” declares the Sovereign Lord,
“I will make the sun go down at noon
and darken the earth in broad daylight.(V)
10 I will turn your religious festivals(W) into mourning
and all your singing into weeping.(X)
I will make all of you wear sackcloth(Y)
and shave(Z) your heads.
I will make that time like mourning for an only son(AA)
and the end of it like a bitter day.(AB)
11 “The days are coming,”(AC) declares the Sovereign Lord,
“when I will send a famine through the land—
not a famine of food or a thirst for water,
but a famine(AD) of hearing the words of the Lord.(AE)
12 People will stagger from sea to sea
and wander from north to east,
searching for the word of the Lord,
but they will not find it.(AF)
13 “In that day
