The Coming Day of Bitter Mourning
8 (A)This is what the Lord God showed me: behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, (B)“Amos, what do you see?” And I said, (C)“A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me,
(D)“The end[a] has come upon my people Israel;
I will never again pass by them.
3 (E)The songs of the temple[b] (F)shall become wailings[c] in that day,”
declares the Lord God.
(G)“So many dead bodies!”
“They are thrown everywhere!”
(H)“Silence!”
4 Hear this, (I)you who trample on the needy
and bring the poor of the land to an end,
5 saying, “When will (J)the new moon be over,
that we may sell grain?
And (K)the Sabbath,
that we may offer wheat for sale,
that we may make (L)the ephah small and the shekel[d] great
and deal deceitfully with false balances,
6 that we may buy the poor for (M)silver
and the needy for a pair of sandals
and sell the chaff of the wheat?”
7 The Lord has sworn by (N)the pride of Jacob:
“Surely (O)I will never forget any of their deeds.
8 (P)Shall not the land tremble on this account,
and everyone mourn who dwells in it,
(Q)and all of it rise like the Nile,
and be tossed about (R)and sink again, like the Nile of Egypt?”
9 “And on that day,” declares the Lord God,
(S)“I will make the sun go down at noon
and darken the earth in broad daylight.
10 (T)I will turn your feasts into mourning
and all your songs into lamentation;
(U)I will bring sackcloth on every waist
(V)and baldness on every head;
(W)I will make it like the mourning for an only son
and the end of it like a bitter day.
11 “Behold, the days are coming,” declares the Lord God,
“when (X)I will send a famine on the land—
not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water,
(Y)but of hearing the words of the Lord.
12 (Z)They shall wander from sea to sea,
and from north to east;
they shall run to and fro, to seek the word of the Lord,
(AA)but they shall not find it.

8 Ganito nagpakita ang Panginoong Dios sa akin: at, narito, ang isang bakol ng bunga ng taginit.
2 At kaniyang sinabi, Amos, anong iyong nakikita? At aking sinabi, Isang bakol ng bunga ng taginit. Nang magkagayo'y sinabi ng Panginoon sa akin, Ang wakas ay dumating sa aking bayang Israel; hindi na ako daraan pa uli sa kanila.
3 At ang mga awit sa templo ay magiging mga pananambitan sa araw na yaon, sabi ng Panginoong Dios: ang mga bangkay ay magiging marami; sa bawa't dako ay tahimik silang itatapon.
4 Pakinggan ninyo ito, Oh kayong nananakmal ng mapagkailangan, at inyong pinagkukulang ang dukha sa lupain,
5 Na sinasabi, Kailan daraan ang bagong buwan, upang tayo'y makapagbili ng gugulayin at ang sabbath, upang ating mailabas ang trigo? na gawing munti ang efa, at malaki ang siklo, at gumawa ng karayaan sa magdarayang timbangan;
6 Upang ating mabili ng pilak ang dukha, at ng dalawang paang panyapak ang mapagkailangan, at maipagbili ang pinagbithayan sa trigo.
7 Ang Panginoon ay sumumpa alangalang sa karilagan ng Jacob, Tunay na hindi ko kalilimutan kailan man ang alin man sa kanilang mga gawa.
8 Hindi baga manginginig ang lupain dahil dito, at mananaghoy ang bawa't tumatahan doon? oo, sasampang buo na gaya ng Ilog; at mababagabag at lulubog uli, gaya ng Ilog ng Egipto.
9 At mangyayari sa araw na yaon, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, na aking palulubugin ang araw sa katanghaliang tapat, at aking padidilimin ang lupa sa maliwanag na araw.
10 At aking papalitan ng panaghoy ang inyong mga kapistahan, at taghoy ang lahat ninyong awit; at ako'y maglalagay ng kayong magaspang sa lahat na balakang, at kakalbuhan sa bawa't ulo; at aking gagawing gaya ng pagtaghoy sa isang bugtong na anak, at ang wakas niyaon ay gaya ng mapanglaw na araw.
11 Narito, ang mga araw ay dumarating, sabi ng Panginoong Dios, na ako'y magpapasapit ng kagutom sa lupain, hindi kagutom sa tinapay, o kauhawan man dahil sa tubig, kundi sa pagkarinig ng mga salita ng Panginoon.
12 At sila'y magsisilaboy sa dagat at dagat, at mula sa hilagaan hanggang sa silanganan; sila'y magsisitakbo ng paroo't parito upang hanapin ang salita ng Panginoon, at hindi masusumpungan.
13 Sa araw na yaon ay manglulupaypay sa uhaw ang mga magandang dalaga at ang mga binata.
14 Silang nagsisisumpa sa pamamagitan ng kasalanan ng Samaria, at nagsasabi, Buhay ang Dios mo, Oh Dan; at, Buhay ang daan ng Beer-seba; sila'y mangabubuwal, at kailan may hindi na mangakababangon.

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
