Clementine Vulgate, 1598
King James Version with Apocrypha
1Hæc ostendit mihi Dominus Deus: et ecce uncinus pomorum.
1Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
2Et dixit: Quid tu vides, Amos? Et dixi: Uncinum pomorum. Et dixit Dominus ad me: [Venit finis super populum meum Israël; non adjiciam ultra ut pertranseam eum.
2And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the LORD unto me, The end is come upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.
3Et stridebunt cardines templi in die illa, dicit Dominus Deus: multi morientur; in omni loco projicietur silentium.]
3And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, saith the Lord GOD : there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth with silence.
4[Audite hoc, qui conteritis pauperem, et deficere facitis egenos terræ,
4¶ Hear this, O ye that swallow up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
5dicentes: Quando transibit mensis, et venundabimus merces? et sabbatum, et aperiemus frumentum, ut imminuamus mensuram, et augeamus siclum, et supponamus stateras dolosas,
5Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
6ut possideamus in argento egenos et pauperes pro calceamentis, et quisquilias frumenti vendamus?
6That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea , and sell the refuse of the wheat?
7Juravit Dominus in superbiam Jacob: Si oblitus fuero usque ad finem omnia opera eorum.
7The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.
8Numquid super isto non commovebitur terra, et lugebit omnis habitator ejus, et ascendet quasi fluvius universus, et ejicicetur, et defluet, quasi rivus Ægypti?
8Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as by the flood of Egypt.
9Et erit in die illa, dicit Dominus Deus: occidet sol in meridie, et tenebrescere faciam terram in die luminis:
9And it shall come to pass in that day, saith the Lord GOD , that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10et convertam festivitates vestras in luctum, et omnia cantica vestra in planctum, et inducam super omne dorsum vestrum saccum, et super omne caput calvitium: et ponam eam quasi luctum unigeniti, et novissima ejus quasi diem amarum.
10And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make it as the mourning of an only son , and the end thereof as a bitter day.
11Ecce dies veniunt, dicet Dominus, et mittam famem in terram: non famem panis, neque sitim aquæ, sed audiendi verbum Domini.
11¶ Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD , that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD :
12Et commovebuntur a mari usque ad mare, et ab aquilone usque ad orientem: circuibunt quærentes verbum Domini, et non invenient.
12And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD , and shall not find it .
13In die illa deficient virgines pulchræ et adolescentes in siti,
13In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
14qui jurant in delicto Samariæ, et dicunt: Vivit Deus tuus, Dan, et vivit via Bersabee; et cadent, et non resurgent ultra.]
14They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beer-sheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.
