阿摩司書 5
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Traditional)
King James Version with Apocrypha
1以色列 家啊，要聽我為你們所作的哀歌：
1Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
2以色列 民跌倒，不得再起； 躺在地上，無人攙扶。
2The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
3主耶和華如此說： 以色列 家的城發出一千 兵 的，只剩一百； 發出一百的，只剩十個。
3For thus saith the Lord GOD ; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.
4耶和華向 以色列 家如此說： 你們要尋求我，就必存活。
4¶ For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
5不要往 伯特利 尋求， 不要進入 吉甲 ， 不要過到 別是巴 ； 因為 吉甲 必被擄掠， 伯特利 也必歸於無有。
5But seek not Beth-el, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Beth-el shall come to nought.
6要尋求耶和華，就必存活， 免得他在 約瑟 家像火發出， 在 伯特利 焚燒，無人撲滅。
6Seek the LORD , and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it , and there be none to quench it in Beth-el.
7你們這使公平變為茵蔯、 將公義丟棄於地的，
7Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
8要 尋求 那造昴星和參星， 使死蔭變為晨光， 使白日變為黑夜， 命海水來澆在地上的－ 耶和華是他的名；
8Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:
9他使力強的忽遭滅亡， 以致保障遭遇毀壞。
9That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
10你們怨恨那在城門口責備人的， 憎惡那說正直話的。
10They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
11你們踐踏貧民， 向他們勒索麥子； 你們用鑿過的石頭建造房屋， 卻不得住在其內； 栽種美好的葡萄園， 卻不得喝所出的酒。
11Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
12我知道你們的罪過何等多， 你們的罪惡何等大。 你們苦待義人，收受賄賂，在城門口屈枉窮乏人。
12For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right .
13所以通達人見這樣的時勢必靜默不言， 因為時勢真惡。
13Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.
14你們要求善， 不要求惡，就必存活。 這樣，耶和華－萬軍之上帝 必照你們所說的與你們同在。
14Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD , the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
15要惡惡好善， 在城門口秉公行義； 或者耶和華－萬軍之上帝向 約瑟 的餘民施恩。
15Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
16主耶和華－萬軍之上帝如此說： 在一切寬闊處必有哀號的聲音； 在各街市上必有人說： 哀哉！哀哉！ 又必叫農夫來哭號， 叫善唱哀歌的來舉哀。
16Therefore the LORD , the God of hosts, the Lord, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.
17在各葡萄園必有哀號的聲音， 因為我必從你中間經過。 這是耶和華說的。
17And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD .
18想望耶和華日子來到的有禍了！ 你們為何想望耶和華的日子呢？ 那日黑暗沒有光明，
18Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD ! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.
19景況好像人躲避獅子又遇見熊， 或是進房屋以手靠牆，就被蛇咬。
19As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
20耶和華的日子不是黑暗沒有光明嗎？ 不是幽暗毫無光輝嗎？
20Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
21我厭惡你們的節期， 也不喜悅你們的嚴肅會。
21¶ I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
22你們雖然向我獻燔祭和素祭， 我卻不悅納， 也不顧你們用肥畜獻的平安祭；
22Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
23要使你們歌唱的聲音遠離我， 因為我不聽你們彈琴的響聲。
23Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
24惟願公平如大水滾滾， 使公義如江河滔滔。
24But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
25「 以色列 家啊，你們在曠野四十年，豈是將祭物和供物獻給我呢？
25Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?
26你們抬着為自己所造之 摩洛 的帳幕和偶像的龕，並你們的神星。
26But ye have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which ye made to yourselves.
27所以我要把你們擄到 大馬士革 以外。」這是耶和華－名為萬軍之上帝說的。
27Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, saith the LORD , whose name is The God of hosts.
