Amos 3 глава

Amos
New King James Version → Перевод Еп. Кассиана

 
 

Hear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:
 

“You only have I known of all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”
 

Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?
 

Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion [a]cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?
 

Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no [b]trap for it? Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?
 

If a [c]trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the Lord have done it?
 

Surely the Lord God does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
 

A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?
 

“Proclaim in the palaces at [d]Ashdod, And in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say: ‘Assemble on the mountains of Samaria; See great tumults in her midst, And the [e]oppressed within her.
 

For they do not know to do right,’ Says the Lord, ‘Who store up violence and [f]robbery in their palaces.’ ”
 

Therefore thus says the Lord God: “An adversary shall be all around the land; He shall sap your strength from you, And your palaces shall be plundered.”
 

Thus says the Lord: “As a shepherd [g]takes from the mouth of a lion Two legs or a piece of an ear, So shall the children of Israel be taken out Who dwell in Samaria — In the corner of a bed and [h]on the edge of a couch!
 

Hear and testify against the house of Jacob,” Says the Lord God, the God of hosts,
 

“That in the day I punish Israel for their transgressions, I will also visit destruction on the altars of Bethel; And the horns of the altar shall be cut off And fall to the ground.
 

I will [i]destroy the winter house along with the summer house; The houses of ivory shall perish, And the great houses shall have an end,” Says the Lord.
