阿摩司書第7章 |
|
1 民間蒭蕘，爲王所刈，後復萌糵，斯時也，主耶和華以一事示予，草甫萌芽，而蝗蟲生，主使之然， |
|
2 蝗嚙草旣盡，我曰，主耶和華歟，祈爾寬宥，雅各衰微，能久存乎。 |
|
3 耶和華乃囘厥志，曰，此災可免。 |
|
4 耶和華復以一事示予，以火罰民，深淵悉涸，所得之地，成焦土焉。 |
|
5 我曰，主耶和華歟，祈爾中止，雅各衰微，能久存乎。 |
|
6 耶和華乃囘厥志，曰，此災可免。 |
|
7 復以一事示予，爰原有牆垣，循準繩而建築，主執準繩，立於其上。 |
|
8 耶和華謂我曰，亞麼士爾觀何物。對曰，準繩曰，我不復宥以色列族，必絜以準繩，削之務盡， |
|
9 以撒之崇坵必傾圮，以色列之聖所必荒蕪，我將以刃擊耶羅破暗家。 |
|
10 伯特利之祭司亞馬謝，遣人至以色列王耶羅破暗曰，亞麼士在以色列族中謀叛，播散流言，國將不堪， |
|
11 蓋亞麼士常言耶羅破暗必死於刃，以色列族必遷於他方， |
|
12 亞馬謝告亞麼士曰，先見者歟，宜循於猶大，在彼可得餬口，宣播言詞， |
|
13 毋在伯特利播言，此處王之聖所，宮闕在焉。 |
|
14 亞麼士曰，我非先知，亦非先知之子，我乃牧牛羊，摘桑葚者， |
|
15 我守羣畜，耶和華選我，告我曰，當播言於我民，以色列族中 |
|
16 今耶和華有言，爾其聽哉，我宣訓言，告誡以色列族，以撒家，而爾禁止， |
|
17 故耶和華曰，爾妻將爲妓於城中，爾之子女，蹈刃而亡，爾之田畝，以繩量度，分於衆人，爾身必死於污俗，以色列族亦被遷於遠方。 |
AmosChapter 7 |
|
1 THUS has the LORD God showed me: behold, a plague of locusts coming up in the beginning of springing up of the latter growth; and, 1o, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings. |
|
2 And it came to pass when they had finished eating the grass of the land, then I said, O LORD God, forgive. Who shall raise up Jacob? For he is small in numbers. |
|
3 Then the LORD averted this calamity: it shall not be. |
|
4 Thus has the LORD God showed me: and, behold, the LORD God called the people to judge them by fire, and it devoured the great deep and did eat up a part. |
|
5 Then I said, O LORD God, forgive. Who shall raise up Jacob? For he is small in numbers. |
|
6 The LORD averted this calamity; this also shall not be. |
|
7 Thus he showed me: and, behold, the LORD was standing upon a wall made of adamant, and a plumbline was in his hand. |
|
8 And the LORD said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the LORD, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel; I will not again pass by them any more: |
|
9 And the absurd shrines of Israel shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. |
|
10 Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel, and the land cannot bear all his words. |
|
11 For thus Amos is saying: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be carried away captive out of their own land. |
|
12 Also Amaziah said to Amos, O you seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there; |
|
13 But prophesy, not again any more at Beth-el; for it is the king's sanctuary and it is the house of the kingdom. |
|
14 Then Amos answered and said to Amaziah, I am not a prophet, neither a prophet's son; but I was a shepherd and a gatherer of wild figs; |
|
15 And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said to me, Go, prophesy against my people Israel. |
|
16 Now therefore hear the word of the LORD: You say, Do not prophesy against the house of Israel and do not teach against the house of Isaac. |
|
17 Therefore thus says the LORD: Your wife shall play the harlot in your own city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you yourself shall die in a polluted land; and Israel shall surely be carried away captive from his land. |
