1ΟΥΤΩΣ ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος ὁ Θεός, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπιγονὴ ἀκρίδων ἐρχομένη ἑωθινή, καὶ ἰδοὺ βροῦχος εἷς Γὼγ ὁ βασιλεύς.
1Thus the Lord GOD showed me; and, behold, He formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings.
2καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν συντελέσῃ τοῦ καταφαγεῖν τὸν χόρτον τῆς γῆς, καὶ εἶπα· Κύριε Κύριε, ἵλεως γενοῦ· τίς ἀναστήσει τὸν Ἰακώβ; ὅτι ὀλιγοστός ἐστι·
2And if it had come to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land — so I said: O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech Thee; how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.
3μετανόησον, Κύριε, ἐπὶ τούτῳ. καὶ τοῦτο οὐκ ἔσται, λέγει Κύριος.
3The LORD repented concerning this; 'It shall not be', saith the LORD.
4Οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκάλεσε τὴν δίκην ἐν πυρὶ Κύριος, καὶ κατέφαγε τὴν ἄβυσσον τὴν πολλὴν καὶ κατέφαγε τὴν μερίδα Κυρίου.
4Thus the Lord GOD showed me; and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land.
5καὶ εἶπα· Κύριε, κόπασον δή, τίς ἀναστήσει τὸν Ἰακώβ; ὅτι ὀλιγοστός ἐστι·
5Then said I: O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech Thee; how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.
6μετανόησον, Κύριε, ἐπὶ τούτῳ. καὶ τοῦτο οὐ μὴ γένηται, λέγει Κύριος.
6The LORD repented concerning this; 'This also shall not be', saith the Lord GOD.
7Οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος, καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑστηκὼς ἐπὶ τείχους ἀδαμαντίνου, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἀδάμας.
7Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand.
8καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρός με· τί σὺ ὁρᾷς, Ἀμώς; καὶ εἶπα· ἀδάμαντα· καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρός με· ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐντάσσω ἀδάμαντα ἐν μέσῳ λαοῦ μου Ἰσραήλ, οὐκέτι μὴ προσθῶ τοῦ παρελθεῖν αὐτόν·
8And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' 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 pardon them any more;
9καὶ ἀφανισθήσονται βωμοὶ τοῦ γέλωτος, καὶ αἱ τελεταί τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐρημωθήσονται, καὶ ἀναστήσομαι ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἱεροβοὰμ ἐν ρομφαίᾳ.
9And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
10Καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Ἀμασίας ὁ ἱερεὺς Βαιθὴλ πρὸς Ἱεροβοὰμ βασιλέα Ἰσραὴλ λέγων· συστροφὰς ποιεῖται κατὰ σοῦ Ἀμὼς ἐν μέσῳ οἴκου Ἰσραήλ· οὐ μὴ δύνηται ἡ γῆ ὑπενεγκεῖν πάντας τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ,
10Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: 'Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is not able to bear all his words.
11διότι τάδε λέγει Ἀμώς· ἐν ρομφαίᾳ τελευτήσει Ἱεροβοάμ, ὁ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.
11For thus Amos saith: Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.'
12καὶ εἶπεν Ἀμασίας πρὸς Ἀμώς· ὁ ὁρῶν, βάδιζε ἐκχώρησον σὺ εἰς γῆν Ἰούδα καὶ ἐκεῖ καταβίου καὶ ἐκεῖ προφητεύσεις,
12Also Amaziah said unto Amos: 'O thou seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there;
13εἰς δὲ Βαιθὴλ οὐκέτι προσθήσεις τοῦ προφητεῦσαι, ὅτι ἁγίασμα βασιλέως ἐστὶ καὶ οἶκος βασιλείας ἐστί.
13but prophesy not again any more at Beth-el, for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal house.'
14καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Ἀμὼς καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ἀμασίαν· οὐκ ἤμην προφήτης ἐγὼ οὐδὲ υἱὸς προφήτου, ἀλλ᾿ ἢ αἰπόλος ἤμην καὶ κνίζων συκάμινα·
14Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah: 'I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdman, and a dresser of sycamore-trees;
15καὶ ἀνέλαβέ με Κύριος ἐκ τῶν προβάτων, καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρός με· βάδιζε προφήτευσον ἐπὶ τὸν λαὸν μου Ἰσραήλ.
15and the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said unto me: Go, prophesy unto My people Israel.
16καὶ νῦν ἄκουε λόγον Κυρίου. σὺ λέγεις· μὴ προφήτευε ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ καὶ οὐ μὴ ὀχλαγωγήσῃς ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰακώβ·
16Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest: Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac;
17διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος· ἡ γυνή σου ἐν τῇ πόλει πορνεύσει, καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες σου ἐν ρομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται, καὶ ἡ γῆ σου ἐν σχοινίῳ καταμετρηθήσεται, καὶ σὺ ἐν γῇ ἀκαθάρτῳ τελευτήσεις, ὁ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ γῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.
17Therefore thus saith the LORD: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou thyself shalt die in an unclean land, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.'
