Amos 3
JPS Tanakh (Jewish Publication Society, 1917)
Chinese Union Version, punctuated (Simplified)
1Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying:
1以色列 人哪,你们全家是我从 埃及 地领上来的,当听耶和华攻击你们的话:
2You only have I known of all the families of the earth; therefore I will visit upon you all your iniquities.
2在地上万族中,我只认识你们; 因此,我必追讨你们的一切罪孽。
3Will two walk together, except they have agreed?
3二人若不同心,岂能同行呢?
4Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? Will a young lion give forth his voice out of his den, if he have taken nothing?
4狮子若非抓食,岂能在林中咆哮呢? 少壮狮子若无所得,岂能从洞中发声呢?
5Will a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where there is no lure for it? Will a snare spring up from the ground, and have taken nothing at all?
5若没有机槛,雀鸟岂能陷在网罗里呢? 网罗若无所得,岂能从地上翻起呢?
6Shall the horn be blown in a city, and the people not tremble? Shall evil befall a city, and the LORD hath not done it?
6城中若吹角,百姓岂不惊恐呢? 灾祸若临到一城,岂非耶和华所降的吗?
7For the Lord GOD will do nothing, but He revealeth His counsel unto His servants the prophets.
7主耶和华若不将奥秘指示他的仆人—众先知, 就一无所行。
8The lion hath roared, who will not fear? The Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?
8狮子吼叫,谁不惧怕呢? 主耶和华发命,谁能不说预言呢?
9Proclaim it upon the palaces at Ashdod, and upon the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say: 'Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria, and behold the great confusions therein, and the oppressions in the midst thereof.'
9要在 亚实突 的宫殿中 和 埃及 地的宫殿里传扬说: 你们要聚集在 撒马利亚 的山上, 就看见城中有何等大的扰乱与欺压的事。
10For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
10那些以强暴抢夺财物、 积蓄在自己家中的人 不知道行正直的事。 这是耶和华说的。
11Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD: An adversary, even round about the land! And he shall bring down thy strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
11所以主耶和华如此说: 敌人必来围攻这地, 使你的势力衰微, 抢掠你的家宅。
12Thus saith the LORD: As the shepherd rescueth out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, so shall the children of Israel that dwell in Samaria escape with the corner of a couch, and the leg of a bed.
12耶和华如此说:「牧人怎样从狮子口中抢回两条 羊 腿或半个耳朵,住 撒马利亚 的 以色列 人躺卧在床角上或铺绣花毯的榻上,他们得救也不过如此。」
13Hear ye, and testify against the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts.
13主耶和华—万军之 神说: 当听这话,警戒 雅各 家。
14For in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him, I will also punish the altars of Beth-el, and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.
14我讨 以色列 罪的日子,也要讨 伯特利 祭坛的罪; 坛角必被砍下,坠落于地。
15And I will smite the winter-house with the summer-house; and the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall have an end, saith the LORD.
15我要拆毁过冬和过夏的房屋。 象牙的房屋也必毁灭; 高大的房屋都归无有。 这是耶和华说的。
