Ἀκούσατε τὸν λόγον τοῦτον, δαμάλεις τῆς Βασανίτιδος αἱ ἐν τῷ ὄρει τῆς Σαμαρείας, αἱ καταδυυαστεύουσαι πτωχοὺς καὶ καταπατοῦσαι πένητας, αἱ λέγουσαι τοῖς κυρίοις αὐτῶν Ἐπίδοτε ἡμῖν ὅπαως πίωμεν.

ὀμνύει Κύριος κατὰ τῶν ἁγίων αὐτοῦ διότι Ἰδοὺ ἡμέραι ἔρχονται ἐφʼ ὑμᾶς καὶ λήμψονται ὑμᾶς ἐν ὅπλοις, καὶ τοὺς μεθʼ ὑμῶν εἰς λφδητας ὑποκαιομένους ἐμβαλοῦσιν ἔμπυροι λοιμοί,

καὶ ἐξενεχθήσεσθε γυμναὶ κατέναντι ἀλλήλων, καὶ ἀποριφήσεσθε εἰς τὸ ὄρος τὸ Ῥομμάν, λέγει Κύριος.

Εἰσήλθατε εἰς Βαιθὴλ καὶ ἡσεβήσατε, καὶ εἰς Γάλγαλα ἐπληθύνατε τοῦ ἀσεβῆσαι, καὶ ἠνέγκατε εἰς τὸ πρωὶ θυσίας ὑμῶν, εἰς τὴν τριημερίαν τὰ ἐπιδέκατα ὑμῶν·

καὶ ἀνέγνωσαν ἔξω νόμον, καὶ ἐπεκαλέσαντο ὁμολογίας· ἀναγγείλατε ὅτι ταῦτα ἠγάπησαν οἱ υἱοὶ Ἰσραήλ, λέγει Κύριος ὁ θεός.

καὶ ἐγὼ δώσω ὑμῖν γομφιασμὸν ὀδόυτων ἐν πάσαις ταῖς πόλεσιν ὑμῶν, καὶ ἔνδειαν ἄρτων ἐν πᾶσι τοῖς τόποις ὑμῶν, καὶ οὐκ ἐπεστρέψατε πρὸς μέ, λέγει Κύριος.

καὶ ἐγὼ ἀνέσχον ἐξ ὑμῶν τὸν ὑετὸν πρὸ τριῶν μηνῶντοῦ τρυγητοῦ, καὶ βρέξω ἐπὶ πόλιν μίαν, ἐπὶ δὲ πόλιν μίαν οὐ βρέξωμερlς μία βραχῆσεται, καὶ μερὶς ἐφʼ ἣν οὐ βρέξω ξηρανθήσεται.

καὶ συναθροισθήσονται δύο καὶ τρεῖς πόλεις εἰς πόλιν μίαν τοῦ πιεῖν ὕδωρ καὶ οὐ μὴ ἐμπλησθῶσιν, καὶ οὐκ ἐπεστράφητε πρὸς μέ, λέγει Κύριος.

ἐπάταξα ὑμᾶς ἐν πυρώσει καὶ ἐν ἰκτέρῳ· ἐπληθύνατε κήπους ὑμῶν, ἀμπελῶνας ὑμῶν καὶ συκῶνας ὑμῶν καὶ ἐλαιῶνας ὑμῶν κατέφαγεν ἡ κάμπη, καὶ οὐδ᾿ ὣς ἐπεστρέψατε πρὸς μέ, λέγει Κύριος.

ἐξαπέστειλα εἰς ὑμᾶς θάνατον ἐν ὁδῷ Αἰγύπτου, καὶ ἀπέκτεινα ἐν όομφαίᾳ τοὺς νεανίσκους ὑμῶν μετὰ αἰχμαλωσίας ἵππων σου, καὶ ἀνήγαγον ἐν πυρὶ τὰς παρεμβολὰς ὑμῶν ἐν τῇ ὀργῇ ὑμῶν, καὶ οἱδ’ ὣς ἐπεστρέψατε πρὸς μέ, λέγει Κύριος.

κατέστρεψα ὑμᾶς ¹² καθὼς κατέστρεψεν ὁ θεὸς Σόδομα καὶ Ι όμορρα, καὶ ἐγένεσθε ὡς ³ δαλὸς ἐξεσπασμένος ἐκ πυρός, καὶ οὐδʼ ὧς ἐπεστρέψατε πρὸς μέ, λέγει Κύριος.

διὰ τοῦτο οὕτως ποιήσω σοι, Ἰσραήλ· πλὴν ὅτι οὕτως ποιήσω σοι, ἑτοιμάζου τοῦ ἐπικαλεῖσθαι τὸν θεόν σου, Ἰσραήλ.

διότι στερεῶν βροντὴν καὶ κτίζων πνεῦμα καὶ ἀπαγγέλλων εἰς ἀνθρώπους τὸν χριστὸν αὐτοῦ, ὁ ποιῶν ὄρθρον καὶ ὁμίχλην, ἐπιβαίνωνἐπὶἐπὶ τὰ ὕψη τῆς γῆς· Κύριος ὁ θεὸς ὁ παντοκράτωρ ὄνομα αὐτῷ.

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.) — 4 focus

Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their lords, Bring, and let us drink.

The Lord Yahweh has sworn by his holiness that behold, The days shall come on you that they will take you away with hooks, And the last of you with fish hooks.

You will go out at the breaks in the wall, Everyone straight before her; And you will cast yourselves into Harmon, says Yahweh.

Go to Bethel, and sin; To Gilgal, and sin more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every three days,

Offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, And proclaim free will offerings and brag about them: For this pleases you, you children of Israel, says the Lord Yahweh.

I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, And lack of bread in every town; Yet you haven’t returned to me, says Yahweh.

I also have withheld the rain from you, When there were yet three months to the harvest; And I caused it to rain on one city, And caused it not to rain on another city. One place was rained on, And the piece where it didn’t rain withered.

So two or three cities staggered to one city to drink water, And were not satisfied: Yet you haven’t returned to me, says Yahweh.

I struck you with blight and mildew many times in your gardens and your vineyards; And your fig trees and your olive trees have the swarming locust devoured: Yet you haven’t returned to me, says Yahweh.

I sent plagues among you like I did Egypt. I have slain your young men with the sword, And have carried away your horses; And I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp Yet you haven’t returned to me, says Yahweh.

I have overthrown some of you, As when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, And you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; Yet you haven’t returned to me, says Yahweh.

Therefore thus will I do to you, Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, Israel.

For, behold, he who forms the mountains, And creates the wind, And declares to man what is his thought; Who makes the morning darkness, And treads on the high places of the Earth: Yahweh, the God of hosts, is his name.
