Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1These things the Lord God shewed to me: and behold the locust was formed in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter rain, and lo, it was the latter rain after the king’s mowing.
1主耶和华指示我一件事：为王割菜之后，菜又发生；刚发生的时候，主造蝗虫。
2And it came to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land, I said: O Lord God, be merciful, I beseech thee: who shall raise up Jacob, for he is very little?
2蝗虫吃尽那地的青物，我就说：「主耶和华啊，求你赦免；因为 雅各 微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？」
3The Lord had pity upon this: It shall not be, said the Lord.
3耶和华就后悔说：「这灾可以免了。」
4These things the Lord God shewed to me: and behold the Lord called for judgment unto fire, and it devoured the great deep, and ate up a part at the same time.
4主耶和华又指示我一件事：他命火来惩罚 以色列 ，火就吞灭深渊，险些将地烧灭。
5And I said: O Lord God, cease, I beseech thee, who shall raise up Jacob, for he is a little one?
5我就说：「主耶和华啊，求你止息；因为 雅各 微弱，他怎能站立得住呢？」
6The Lord had pity upon this. Yea this also shall not be, said the Lord God.
6耶和华就后悔说：「这灾也可免了。」
7These things the Lord shewed to me: and behold the Lord was standing upon a plastered wall, and in his hand a mason’s trowel.
7他又指示我一件事：有一道墙是按准绳建筑的，主手拿准绳站在其上。
8And the Lord said to me: What seest thou, Amos? And I said: A mason’s trowel. And the Lord said: Behold, I will lay down the trowel in the midst of my people Israel. I will plaster them over no more.
8耶和华对我说：「 阿摩司 啊，你看见什么？」我说：「看见准绳。」主说：「我要吊起准绳在我民 以色列 中，我必不再宽恕他们。
9And the high places of the idol shall be thrown down, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste: and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
9以撒 的邱坛必然凄凉； 以色列 的圣所必然荒废。我必兴起，用刀攻击 耶罗波安 的家。」
10And Amasias the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: Amos hath rebelled against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words.
10伯特利 的祭司 亚玛谢 打发人到 以色列 王 耶罗波安 那里，说：「 阿摩司 在 以色列 家中图谋背叛你；他所说的一切话，这国担当不起；
11For thus saith Amos: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall be carried away captive out of their own land.
11因为 阿摩司 如此说：『 耶罗波安 必被刀杀； 以色列 民定被掳去离开本地。』」
12And Amasias said to Amos: Thou seer, go, flee away into the land of Juda: and eat bread there, and prophesy there.
12亚玛谢 又对 阿摩司 说：「你这先见哪，要逃往 犹大 地去，在那里糊口，在那里说预言，
13But prophesy not again any more in Bethel: because it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is the house of the kingdom.
13却不要在 伯特利 再说预言；因为这里有王的圣所，有王的宫殿。」
14And Amos answered and said to Amasias: I am not a prophet, nor am I the son of a prophet: but I am a herdsman plucking wild figs.
14阿摩司 对 亚玛谢 说：「我原不是先知，也不是先知的门徒。我是牧人，又是修理桑树的。
15And the Lord took me when I followed the flock, and the Lord said to me: Go, prophesy to my people Israel.
15耶和华选召我，使我不跟从羊群，对我说：『你去向我民 以色列 说预言。』
16And now hear thou the word of the Lord: Thou sayest, thou shalt not prophesy against Israel, and thou shalt not drop thy word upon the house of the idol.
16亚玛谢 啊，现在你要听耶和华的话。你说：『不要向 以色列 说预言，也不要向 以撒 家滴下 预言 。』
17Therefore thus saith the Lord: Thy wife shall play the harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be measured by a line: and thou shalt die in a polluted land, and Israel shall go into captivity out of their land.
17所以耶和华如此说：『你的妻子必在城中作妓女；你的儿女必倒在刀下。你的地必有人用绳子量了分取；你自己必死在污秽之地。 以色列 民定被掳去离开本地。』」
