阿摩司书 8
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1主耶和华又指示我一件事：我看见一筐夏天的果子。
1These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold a hook to draw down the fruit.
2他说：「 阿摩司 啊，你看见什么？」我说：「看见一筐夏天的果子。」耶和华说：「我民 以色列 的结局到了，我必不再宽恕他们。」
2And he said: What seest thou, Amos? And I said: A hook to draw down fruit. And the Lord said to me: The end is come upon my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more.
3主耶和华说：「那日，殿中的诗歌变为哀号；必有许多尸首在各处抛弃，无人作声。」
3And the hinges of the temple shall screak in that day, saith the Lord God: many shall die: silence shall be cast in every place.
4你们这些要吞吃穷乏人、 使困苦人衰败的，当听我的话！
4Hear this, you that crush the poor, and make the needy of the land to fail,
5你们说：月朔几时过去， 我们好卖粮； 安息日几时过去， 我们好摆开麦子； 卖出 用小升斗， 收银 用大戥子， 用诡诈的天平欺哄人，
5Saying: When will the month be over, and we shall sell our wares: and the sabbath, and we shall open the corn: that we may lessen the measure, and increase the sicle, and may convey in deceitful balances,
6好用银子买贫寒人， 用一双鞋换穷乏人， 将坏了的麦子卖给人。
6That we may possess the needy for money, and the poor for a pair of shoes, and may sell the refuse of the corn?
7耶和华指着 雅各 的荣耀起誓说： 他们的一切行为，我必永远不忘。
7The Lord hath sworn against the pride of Jacob: surely I will never forget all their works.
8地岂不因这事震动？ 其上的居民不也悲哀吗？ 地必全然像 尼罗河 涨起， 如同 埃及河 涌上落下。
8Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein: and rise up altogether as a river, and be cast out, and run down as the river of Egypt?
9主耶和华说：到那日， 我必使日头在午间落下， 使地在白昼黑暗。
9And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord God, that the sun shall go down at midday, and I will make the earth dark in the day of light:
10我必使你们的节期变为悲哀， 歌曲变为哀歌。 众人腰束麻布，头上光秃， 使这场悲哀如丧独生子， 至终如痛苦的日子一样。
10And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation: and I will bring up sackcloth upon every back of yours, and baldness upon every head: and I will make it as the mourning of an only son, and the latter end thereof as a bitter day.
11主耶和华说：日子将到， 我必命饥荒降在地上。 人饥饿非因无饼，干渴非因无水， 乃因不听耶和华的话。
11Behold the days come, saith the Lord, and I will send forth a famine into the land: not a famine of bread, nor a thirst of water, but of hearing the word of the Lord.
12他们必飘流，从这海到那海， 从北边到东边，往来奔跑， 寻求耶和华的话，却寻不着。
12And they shall move from sea to sea, and from the north to the east: they shall go about seeking the word of the Lord, and shall not find it.
13当那日，美貌的处女 和少年的男子必因干渴发昏。
13In that day the fair virgins, and the young men shall faint for thirst.
14那指着 撒马利亚 牛犊起誓的说： 但 哪，我们指着你那里的活神起誓； 又说：我们指着 别是巴 的神道起誓。 这些人都必仆倒，永不再起来。
14They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say: Thy God, O Dan, liveth: and the way of Bersabee liveth: and they shall fall, and shall rise no more.
