Prophetia Amos

Vidi Dominum stantem super altare, et dixit: Percute cardinem, et commoveantur superliminaria: avaritia enim in capite omnium, et novissimum eorum in gladio interficiam; non erit fuga eis. Fugient, et non salvabitur ex eis qui fugerit.

I saw the Lord standing upon the altar, and he said: Strike the hinges, and let the lintels be shook: for there is covetousness in the head of them all, and I will slay the last of them with the sword: there shall be no flight for them: they shall flee, and he that shall flee of them shall not be delivered.

Vide Domino sta super altari, et perco: dic cardene, et commove superliminario: avaritia nam in capite de omni, et novissimo de illos in gladio interfice; non fuga es ad illos. Fuge, et non salva ex illos qui fuge.

Si descenderint usque ad infernum, inde manus mea educet eos; et si ascenderint usque in cælum, inde detraham eos.

Though they go down even to hell, thence shall my hand bring them out: and though they climb up to heaven, thence will I bring them down.

Si descende usque ad inferno, inde manus meo educe illos; et si ascende usque in caelo, inde detrahe illos.

Et si absconditi fuerint in vertice Carmeli, inde scrutans auferam eos; et si celaverint se ab oculis meis in profundo maris, ibi mandabo serpenti, et mordebit eos.

And though they be hid in the top of Carmel, I will search and take them away from thence: and though they hide themselves from my eyes in the depth of the sea, there will I command the serpent and he shall bite them.

Et si absconde es in vertice de Carmelio, inde scrutor aufer illos; et si cela se ab oculos meo in profundo de mari, ibi manda ad serpente, et morde illos.

Et si abierint in captivitatem coram inimicis suis, ibi mandabo gladio, et occidet eos: et ponam oculos meos super eos in malum, et non in bonum.

And if they go into captivity before their enemies, there will I command the sword, and it shall kill them. And I will set my eyes upon them for evil, and not for good.

Et si i ab in captivitate coram inimicos suo, ibi manda gladio, et occide illos: et pone oculos meo super illos in malo, et non in bono.

Et Dominus Deus exercituum, qui tangit terram, et tabescet, et lugebunt omnes habitantes in ea: et ascendet sicut rivus omnis, et defluet sicut fluvius Ægypti.

And the Lord the God of hosts is he who toucheth the earth, and it shall melt: and all that dwell therein shall mourn: and it shall rise up as a river, and shall run down as the river of Egypt.

Et Domino Deo de exercitus, qui tange terra, et tabesce, et luge omni habita in illa: et ascende sicut rivo omni, et deflue sicut fluvio de Aegypto.

Qui ædificat in cælo ascensionem suam, et fasciculum suum super terram fundavit; qui vocat aquas maris, et effundit eas super faciem terræ: Dominus nomen ejus.

He that buildeth his ascension in heaven, and hath founded his bundle upon the earth: who calleth the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth, the Lord is his name.

Qui aedifica in caelo ascensione suo, et qui voca super terra aquas; de mari funde fasciculo suo, et effunde illas super facie de terra: domino nomine de illo.

Numquid non ut filii Æthiopum vos estis mihi, filii Israël? ait Dominus. Numquid non Israël ascendere feci de terra Ægypti, et Palæstinos de Cappadocia, et Syros de Cyrene?

Are not you as the children of the Ethiopians unto me, O children of Israel, saith the Lord? did not I bring up Israel, out of the land of Egypt: and the Philistines out of Cappadocia, and the Syrians out of Cyrene?

Numquid non ut filios de Aethiopo vos es ad me, filios Israële? Domino dic. Numquid non Israële ascende fac de terra de Aegypto, et Palaestino de Cappadocia, et Syrose de Cyrene?

Ecce oculi Domini Dei super regnum peccans: et conteram illud a facie terræ; verumtamen conterens non conteram domum Jacob, dicit Dominus.

Behold the eyes of the Lord God are upon the sinful kingdom, and I will destroy it from the face of the earth: but yet I will not utterly destroy the house of Jacob, saith the Lord.

Ecce oculos de Domino de Deo super regno pecca: et contere illo ab facie de terra; verumtamen contere non contere domo Iacobo, Domino dic.

Ecce enim mandabo ego, et concutiam in omnibus gentibus domum Israël, sicut concutitur triticum in cribro, et non cadet lapillus super terram.

For behold I will command, and I will sift the house of Israel among all nations, as corn is sifted in a sieve: and there shall not a little stone fall to the ground.

Ecce nam me manda, et concutie in omni gentes domo Israële, sicut tritico concutie in cribro, et non lapillo cade super terra.

In gladio morientur omnes peccatores populi mei, qui dicunt: Non appropinquabit, et non veniet super nos malum.

All the sinners of my people shall fall by the sword: who say: The evils shall not approach, and shall not come upon us.

In gladio more omni peccatores de populo meo, qui dic: non appropinqua, et non malo super nos veni.

In die illa suscitabo tabernaculum David, quod cecidit: et reædificabo aperturas murorum ejus, et ea quæ corruerant instaurabo: et reædificabo illud sicut in diebus antiquis,

In that day I will raise up the tabernacle of David, that is fallen: and I will close up the breaches of the walls thereof, and repair what was fallen: and I will rebuild it as in the days of old.

In die illa suscita tabernaculo Davide, quod cade: et reaedifica aperturas de muros de illo, et illa que corrue instaura: et reaedifica illo sicut in dies antiquo,

ut possideant reliquias Idumææ, et omnes nationes: eo quod invocatum sit nomen meum super eos, dicit Dominus faciens hæc.

That they may possess the remnant of Edom, and all nations, because my name is invoked upon them: saith the Lord that doth these things.

Ut posside reliquias de Idumaea, et omni nationes: eo quod invoca es nomine meo super illos, Domino dic faciente hoc.

Ecce dies veniunt, dicit Dominus, et comprehendet arator messorem, et calcator uvæ mittentem semen: et stillabunt montes dulcedinem, et omnes colli culti erunt.

Behold the days come, saith the Lord, when the ploughman shall overtake the reaper, and the treader of grapes him that soweth seed: and the mountains shall drop sweetness, and every hill shall be tilled.

Ecce dies veni, Domino dic, et comprehende aratore messore, et calcatore de uva mitte semine: et stilla montes dulcedine, et omni de colle cole es.

Et convertam captivitatem populi mei Israël; et ædificabunt civitates desertas, et inhabitabunt; et plantabunt vineas, et bibent vinum earum, et facient hortos, et comedent fructus eorum.

And I will bring back the captivity of my people Israel: and they shall build the abandoned cities, and inhabit them: and they shall plant vineyards, and drink the wine of them: and shall make gardens, and eat the fruits of them.

Et converte captivitate de populo meo Israële; et aedifica civitates desiri, et inhabita; et planta vineas, et bibe vino de illas, et fac hortos, et comede fructus de illos.

Et plantabo eos super humum suam, et non evellam eos ultra de terra sua, quam dedi eis, dicit Dominus Deus tuus.

And I will plant them upon their own land: and I will no more pluck them out of their land which I have given them, saith the Lord thy God.

Et planta illos super humo suo, et non evelle illos ultra de terra suo, quam da ad illos, Domino Deo tuo dic.
