Ἀκούσατε τὸν λόγον τοῦτον ὃν ἐλάλησεν Κύριος ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς, οἶκος ¹² Ἰσραήλ, καὶ κατὰ πάσης φυλῆς ἧς ἀνήγαγον ἐκ γῆς Αἰγύπτου, ³ λέγων

Πλὴν ὑμᾶς ἔγνων ἐκ πασῶν φυλῶν γῆς· διὰ τοῦτο ἐκδικήσω ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς πάσας τὰς ἁμαρτίας ὑμῶν.

εἰ πορεύσονται δύο ἐπὶ τὸ αὐτὸ καθόλου ἐὰν μὴ γνωρίσωσιν ἑαυτούς;

εἰ ἐρεύξεται λέων ἐκ τοῦ δρυμοῦ αὐτοῦ θήραν οὐκ ἔχων ; εἰ δώσει σκύμνος φωνὴν αὐτοῦ ἐκ τῆς μάνδρας αὐτοῦ καθόλου ἐὰν μὴ ἁρπάσῃ τί;

εἰ πεσεῖται ὄρνεον ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν ἄνευ ἰξευτοῦ; εἰ σχασθήσεται παγὶς ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς ἄνευ τοῦ συλλαβεῖν τι;

εἰ φωνήσει σάλπιγξ ἐν πόλει καὶ λαὸς οὐ μὴ πτοηθήσεται; εἰ ἔσται κακία ἐν πόλει ἣν Κύριος οὐκ ἐποίησεν;

διότι οὐ μὴ ποιήσει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς πρᾶγμα ἐὰν μὴ ἀποκαλύψῃ παιδείαν πρὸς τοὺς δούλους αὐτοῦ τοὺς προφήτας.

λέων ἐρεύξεται, καὶ τίς οὐ φοβηθήσεται Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ἐλάλησεν, καὶ τίς οὐ προφητεύσε;

Ἀπαγγείλατε χώραις ἐν Ἀσσυρίοις καὶ ἐπὶ τὰς χώρας τῆς Αἰγύπτου, καὶ εἴπατε Συνάχθητε ἐπὶ τὸ ὄρος Σαμαρείας. καὶ ἴδετε θαυμαστὰ πολλὰ ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς καὶ καταδυναστείαν τὴν ἐν αὐτῇ·

καὶ οὐκ ἔγνω ἃ ἔσται ἐναντίον αὐτῆς, λέγει Κύριος, οἱ θησαυρίζοντες ἀδικίαν καὶ ταλαιπωρίαν ἐν ταῖς χώραις αὐτῶν.

διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεός Τύρος κυκλόθεν ἡ γῆ σου ἐρημωθήσεται, καὶ κατάξει ἐκ σοῦ ἰσχύν σου, καὶ διαρπαγήσονται αἱ χῶραί σου.

τάδε λέγει Κύριος Ὃν τρόπον ὅταν ἐκσπάσῃ ὁ ποιμὴν ἐκ στόματος τοῦ λέοντος δύο σκέλη ἢ λοβὸν ὠτίου, οὕτως ἐκσπασθήσονται οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραὴλ οἱ κατοικοῦντες ἐν Σαμαρείᾳ κατέναντι τῆς φυλῆς καὶ ἐν Δαμασκῷ ἱερεῖς.

ἀκούσατε καὶ ἐπιμαρτύρασθε τῷ οἴκῳ Ἰακώβ, λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ,

διότι ἐν τῇ ἡμέρᾳ ὅταν ἐκδικῶ ἀσεβείας τοῦ Ἰσραὴλ ἐπʼ αὐτόν, καὶ ἐκδικήσω ἐπὶ τὰ θυσιαστήρια Βαιθήλ, καὶ κατασκαφήσεται τὰ κέρατα τοῦ θυσιαστηρίου καὶ πεσοῦνται ἐπὶ τὴν γῆν·

συνχεῶ καὶ πατάξω τὸν οἶκον τὸν περίπτερον ⁴⁶ ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον τὸν θερινὸν, καὶ ἀπολοῦνται οἶκοι ἐλεφάντινοι, καὶ προσ- τεθήσονται ἕτεροι οἶκοι πολλοί, λέγει Κύριος.

Ἀμώς (Greek) (Septuaginta. The Old Testament in Greek According to the Septuagint. Volume 3: Hosea-4 Maccabees, Psalms of Solomon, Enoch, The Odes. Swete, Henry Barclay, editor. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1905)

Amos Perseus (World English Bible. Revision of the American Standard Version of 1901. Rainbow Missions, Inc., 2000-2024.) — 3 focus

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

You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins.

Do two walk together, Unless they have agreed?

Will a lion roar in the thicket, When he has no prey? Does a young lion cry out of his den, If he has caught nothing?

Can a bird fall in a trap on the earth, Where no snare is set for him? Does a snare spring up from the ground, When there is nothing to catch?

Does the trumpet alarm sound in a city, Without the people being afraid? Does evil befall a city, And Yahweh hasn’t done it?

Surely the Lord Yahweh will do nothing, Unless he reveals his secret to his servants the prophets.

The lion has roared. Who will not fear? The Lord Yahweh has spoken. Who can but prophesy?

Proclaim in the palaces at Ashdod, And in the palaces in the land of Egypt, And say, Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria, And see what unrest is in her, And what oppression is among them.

Indeed they don’t know to do right, says Yahweh, Who hoard plunder and loot in their palaces.

Therefore thus says the Lord Yahweh: An adversary will overrun the land; And he will pull down your strongholds, And your fortresses will be plundered.

Thus says Yahweh: As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion two legs, Or a piece of an ear, So shall the children of Israel be rescued who sit in Samaria on the corner of a couch, And on the silken cushions of a bed.

Listen, and testify against the house of Jacob, says the Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts.

For in the day that I visit the transgressions of Israel on him, I will also visit the altars of Bethel; And the horns of the altar will be cut off, And fall to the ground.

I will strike the winter house with the summer house; And the houses of ivory will perish, And the great houses will have an end, says Yahweh.
