Prophetia Amos

Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Moab, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idumææ usque ad cinerem.

Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Moab, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath burnt the bones of the king of Edom even to ashes.

Domino dic hoc: super tre scelere Moabe, et super quatuore non converte illo, eo quod incende ores de rege de Idumaea usque ad cinere.

Et mittam ignem in Moab, et devorabit ædes Carioth: et morietur in sonitu Moab, in clangore tubæ.

And I will send a fire into Moab, and it shall devour the houses of Carioth: and Moab shall die with a noise, with the sound of the trumpet:

Et mitte igni in Moabe, et devora aedes Carioth: et more in sonitu Moabe, in clangore de tuba.

Et disperdam judicem de medio ejus, et omnes principes ejus interficiam cum eo, dicit Dominus.

And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all his princes with him, saith the Lord.

Et disperde iudice de medio de illo, et omni principes de illo interfice cum eo, Domino dic.

Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Juda, et super quatuor non convertam eum, eo quod abjecerit legem Domini et mandata ejus non custodierit: deceperant enim eos idola sua, post quæ abierant patres eorum.

Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Juda, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath cast away the law of the Lord, and hath not kept his commandments: for their idols have caused them to err, after which their fathers have walked.

Domino dic hoc: super tre scelere Iuda, et super quatuore non converte illo, eo quod abice lege de Domino et mandatos de illo non custodi: decipie nam illos idolas suo, post que patres de illos i ab.

Et mittam ignem in Juda, et devorabit ædes Jerusalem.

And I will send a fire into Juda, and it shall devour the houses of Jerusalem.

Et mitte igni in Iuda, et devora aedes Ierusalem.

Hæc dicit Dominus: Super tribus sceleribus Israël, et super quatuor non convertam eum, pro eo quod vendiderit pro argento justum, et pauperem pro calceamentis.

Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Israel, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath sold the just man for silver, and the poor man for a pair of shoes.

Domino dic hoc: super tre scelere Israële, et super quatuore non converte illo, pro eo quod vende pro argento iusto, et paupere pro calceamentos.

Qui conterunt super pulverem terræ capita pauperum, et viam humilium declinant: et filius ac pater ejus ierunt ad puellam, ut violarent nomen sanctum meum.

They bruise the heads of the poor upon the dust of the earth, and turn aside the way of the humble: and the son and his father have gone to the same young woman, to profane my holy name.

Qui contere super pulvere de terra capites paupere, et via humili declina: et filio et patre de illo i ad puella, ut viola nomine sancto meo.

Et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerunt juxta omne altare, et vinum damnatorum bibebant in domo Dei sui.

And they sat down upon garments laid to pledge by every altar: and drank the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.

Et super vestimentos pignora accube juxta omni altari, et vino damna bibe in domo de Deo suo.

Ego autem exterminavi Amorrhæum a facie eorum, cujus altitudo, cedrorum altitudo ejus, et fortis ipse quasi quercus; et contrivi fructum ejus desuper, et radices ejus subter.

Yet I cast out the Amorrhite before their face: whose height was like the height of cedars, and who was strong as an oak: and I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots beneath.

Me autem extermina Amorrhaeo ab facie de illos, de que altitudine, de cedros altitudine de illo, et forti ipso quasi quercu; et contrie fructu de illo desuper, et radices de illo subter.

Ego sum qui ascendere vos feci de terra Ægypti, et duxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis, ut possideretis terram Amorrhæi.

It is I that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and I led you forty years through the wilderness, that you might possess the land of the Amorrhite.

Me es qui ascende vos fac de terra de Aegypto, et duc vos in deserto quadraginta annos, ut posside terra de Amorrhaeo.

Et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas, et de juvenibus vestris nazaræos. Numquid non ita est, filii Israël? dicit Dominus.

And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not so, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord?

Et suscita de filios vestro in prophetas, et de iuvene vestro nazaraeos. Numquid non ita es, de filio Israële? Domino dic.

Et propinabitis nazaræis vinum, et prophetis mandabitis, dicentes: Ne prophetetis.

And you will present wine to the Nazarites: and command the prophets, saying: Prophesy not.

Et propina ad nazaraeas vino, et ad prophetas manda, dicente: ne propheta.

Ecce ego stridebo subter vos, sicut stridet plaustrum onustum fœno.

Behold, I will screak under you as a wain screaketh that is laden with hay.

Ecce me stride subter vos, sicut stride plaustro onusto foenore.

Et peribit fuga a veloce, et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam, et robustus non salvabit animam suam:

And flight shall perish from the swift, and the valiant shall not possess his strength, neither shall the strong save his life.

Et fuga peri ab veloce, et forti non obtine virtute suo, et robusta non salva anima suo:

et tenens arcum non stabit, et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur, et ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam:

And he that holdeth the bow shall not stand, and the swift of foot shall not escape, neither shall the rider of the horse save his life.

Et tene arcu non sta, et veloce pedes suo non salva, et ascensore de equo non salva anima suo:

et robustus corde inter fortes nudus fugiet in illa die, dicit Dominus.

And the stout of heart among the valiant shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord.

Et robusta corde inter forti nuda fuge in illa die, Domino dic.
