Amos 2

New International Reader's Version NIRV

1 The LORD says, "The people of Moab have sinned again and again. So I will punish them. They burned the bones of Edom's king to ashes.

2 So I will send fire to destroy Moab. It will burn up Kerioth's forts. Moab will come crashing down with a loud noise. War cries will be heard. So will the blast of trumpets.

3 I will cut off Moab's ruler. I will also kill all of its officials," says the Lord.

4 The LORD says, "The people of Judah have sinned again and again. So I will punish them. They have refused to obey my law. They have not kept my rules. Other gods have led them down the wrong path. Their people before them worshiped those gods.

5 So I will send fire to destroy Judah. It will burn up Jerusalem's forts."

6 The LORD says, "The people of Israel have sinned again and again. So I will punish them. They sell into slavery those who do what is right. They trade needy people for a mere pair of sandals.

7 They grind the heads of the poor into the dust of the ground. They refuse to be fair to those who are crushed. A father and his son have sex with the same girl. They treat my name as if it were not holy.

9 "I destroyed the Amorites to make room for my people in the land. The Amorites were as tall as cedar trees. They were as strong as oak trees. But I cut off their fruit above the ground and their roots below it.

10 "People of Israel, I brought you up out of Egypt. I led you in the desert for 40 years. I gave you the land of the Amorites.

11 I raised up prophets from among your children. I also set some of your young people apart to me as Nazirites. Isn't that true, people of Israel?" announces the Lord.

12 "But you made the Nazirites drink wine. You commanded the prophets not to prophesy.

13 "A cart that is loaded with grain crushes anything it runs over. In the same way, I will crush you.

14 Your fastest runners will not escape. The strongest people will not get away. Even soldiers will not be able to save their own lives.

15 Men who are armed with bows will lose the battle. Soldiers who are quick on their feet will not escape. Horsemen will not be able to save their own lives.

16 Even your bravest soldiers will run away naked on that day," announces the Lord.

1 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Moab et super quattuor non convertam eum eo quod incenderit ossa regis Idumeae usque ad cinerem

2 et mittam ignem in Moab et devorabit aedes Carioth et morietur in sonitu Moab in clangore tubae

3 et disperdam iudicem de medio eius et omnes principes eius interficiam cum eo dicit Dominus

4 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Iuda et super quattuor non convertam eum eo quod abiecerint legem Domini et mandata eius non custodierint deceperunt enim eos idola sua post quae abierant patres eorum

5 et mittam ignem in Iuda et devorabit aedes Hierusalem

6 haec dicit Dominus super tribus sceleribus Israhel et super quattuor non convertam eum pro eo quod vendiderit argento iustum et pauperem pro calciamentis

11 et suscitavi de filiis vestris in prophetas et de iuvenibus vestris nazarenos numquid non ita est filii Israhel dicit Dominus

12 et propinabatis nazarenis vino et prophetis mandabatis dicentes ne prophetetis

13 ecce ego stridebo super vos sicut stridet plaustrum onustum faeno

14 et peribit fuga a veloce et fortis non obtinebit virtutem suam et robustus non salvabit animam suam

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

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