Amos 7

Thus has the Lord God shewed me; and, behold, a swarm of locusts coming from the east; and, behold, one caterpillar, king Gog.

Οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος ὁ Θεός· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπιγονὴ ἀκρίδων ἐρχομένη ἑωθινὴ, καὶ ἰδοὺ βροῦχος εἷς, Γὼγ ὁ βασιλεύς.

And it came to pass when he had finished devouring the grass of the land, that I said, Lord God, be merciful; who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number.

Καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν συντελέσῃ τοῦ καταφαγεῖν τὸν χόρτον τῆς γῆς, καὶ εἶπα, Κύριε Κύριε, ἵλεως γενοῦ· τίς ἀναστήσει τὸν Ἰακώβ; ὅτι ὀλιγοστός ἐστι.

Repent, O Lord, for this. And this shall not be, saith the Lord.

Μετανόησον Κύριε ἐπὶ τούτῳ. Καὶ τοῦτο οὐκ ἔσται, λέγει Κύριος.

Thus has the Lord shewed me; and, behold, the Lord called for judgment by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and devoured the Lord's portion.

Οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκάλεσε τὴν δίκην ἐν πυρὶ Κύριος, καὶ κατέφαγε τὴν ἄβυσσον τὴν πολλὴν, καὶ κατέφαγε τὴν μερίδα Κυρίου.

Then I said, O Lord, cease, I pray thee: who shall raise up Jacob? for he is small in number. Repent, O Lord, for this.

Καὶ εἶπα, Κύριε κόπασον δὴ, τίς ἀναστήσει τὸν Ἰακώβ; ὅτι ὀλιγοστός ἐστι.

This also shall not be, saith the Lord.

Μετανόησον Κύριε ἐπὶ τούτῳ. Καὶ τοῦτο οὐ μὴ γένηται, λέγει Κύριος.

Thus the Lord shewed me; and behold, he stood upon a wall of adamant, and in his hand was an adamant.

Οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος· καὶ ἰδοὺ ἑστηκὼς ἐπὶ τείχους ἀδαμαντίνου, καὶ ἐν τῇ χειρὶ αὐτοῦ ἀδάμας.

And the Lord said to me, What seest thou, Amos? And I said, An adamant. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I appoint an adamant in the midst of my people Israel: I will not pass by them any more.

Καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, τί σὺ ὁρᾷς Ἀμώς; καὶ εἶπα, ἀδάμαντα· καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐντάσσω ἀδάμαντα ἐν μέσῳ λαοῦ μου Ἰσραὴλ, οὐκ ἔτι μὴ προσθῶ τοῦ παρελθεῖν αὐτόν.

And the joyful altars shall be abolished, and the sacrifices of Israel shall be set aside; and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.

Καὶ ἀφανισθήσονται βωμοὶ τοῦ γέλωτος, καὶ αἱ τελεταὶ τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐρημωθήσονται, καὶ ἀναστήσομαι ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἱεροβοὰμ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ.

Then Amasias the priest of Bæthel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos is forming conspiracies against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land will be utterly unable to bear all his words.

Καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Ἀμασίας ὁ ἱερεὺς Βαιθὴλ πρὸς Ἱεροβοὰμ βασιλέα Ἰσραὴλ, λέγων, συστροφὰς ποιεῖται κατὰ σοῦ Ἀμὼς ἐν μέσῳ οἴκου Ἰσραὴλ, οὐ μὴ δύνηται ἡ γῆ ὑπενεγκεῖν πάντας τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ.

For thus says Amos, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall be led away captive from his land.

Διότι τάδε λέγει Ἀμὼς, ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ τελευτήσει Ἱεροβοὰμ, ὁ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ.

And Amasias said to Amos, Go, seer, remove thou into the land of Juda, and live there, and thou shalt prophesy there:

Καὶ εἶπεν Ἀμασίας πρὸς Ἀμὼς ὁ ὁρῶν βάδιζε, ἐκχῶρησον σὺ εἰς γῆν Ἰούδα, καὶ ἐκεῖ καταβίου, καὶ ἐκεῖ προφητεύσεις,

but thou shalt no longer prophesy at Bæthel: for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is the royal house.

εἰς δὲ Βαιθὴλ οὐκ ἔτι προσθήσεις τοῦ προφητεῦσαι, ὅτι ἁγίασμα βασιλέως ἐστὶ, καὶ οἶκος βασιλείας ἐστί.

And Amos answered, and said to Amasias, I was not a prophet, nor the son of a prophet; but I was a herdman, and a gatherer of sycamore fruits.

Καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Ἀμὼς καὶ εἶπε πρὸς Ἀμασίαν, οὐκ ἤμην προφήτης ἐγὼ, οὐδὲ υἱὸς προφήτου, ἀλλʼ ἢ αἰπόλος ἤμην, καὶ κνίζων συκάμινα·

And the Lord took me from the sheep, and the Lord said to me, Go, and prophesy to my people Israel.

καὶ ἀνέλαβέ με Κύριος ἐκ τῶν προβάτων, καὶ εἶπε Κύριος πρὸς μὲ, βάδιζε, καὶ προφήτευσον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ἰσραήλ.

And now hear the word of the Lord: Thou sayest, Prophesy not to Israel, and raise not a tumult against the house of Jacob.

Καὶ νῦν ἄκουε λόγον Κυρίου· σὺ λέγεις, μὴ προφήτευε ἐπὶ τὸν Ἰσραὴλ, καὶ οὐ μὴ ὀχλαγωγήσῃς ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ἰακώβ.

Therefore 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 measured with the line; and thou shalt die in an unclean land; and Israel shall be led captive out of his land. Thus has the Lord God shewed me.

Διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος, ἡ γυνή σου ἐν τῇ πόλει πορνεύσει, καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες σου ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται, καὶ ἡ γῆ σου ἐν σχοινίῳ καταμετρηθήσεται, καὶ σὺ ἐν γῇ ἀκαθάρτῳ τελευτήσεις, ὁ δὲ Ἰσραὴλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ· οὕτως ἔδειξέ μοι Κύριος Κύριος.
