Amos 阿摩司书08(在线收听

8This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me: a basket of ripe fruit.
2"What do you see, Amos?" he asked. "A basket of ripe fruit," I answered. Then the Lord said to me, "The time is ripe for my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.
3"In that day," declares the Sovereign Lord , "the songs in the temple will turn to wailing. Many, many bodies-flung everywhere! Silence!"
4Hear this, you who trample the needy and do away with the poor of the land,
5saying, "When will the New Moon be over that we may sell grain, and the Sabbath be ended that we may market wheat?"- skimping the measure, boosting the price and cheating with dishonest scales,
6buying the poor with silver and the needy for a pair of sandals, selling even the sweepings with the wheat.
7The Lord has sworn by the Pride of Jacob: "I will never forget anything they have done.
8"Will not the land tremble for this, and all who live in it mourn? The whole land will rise like the Nile; it will be stirred up and then sink like the river of Egypt.
9"In that day," declares the Sovereign Lord , "I will make the sun go down at noon and darken the earth in broad daylight.
10I will turn your religious feasts into mourning and all your singing into weeping. I will make all of you wear sackcloth and shave your heads. I will make that time like mourning for an only son and the end of it like a bitter day.
11"The days are coming," declares the Sovereign Lord , "when I will send a famine through the land- not a famine of food or a thirst for water, but a famine of hearing the words of the Lord .
12Men will stagger from sea to sea and wander from north to east, searching for the word of the Lord , but they will not find it.
13"In that day "the lovely young women and strong young men will faint because of thirst.
14They who swear by the shame of Samaria, or say, 'As surely as your god lives, O Dan,' or, 'As surely as the god of Beersheba lives'- they will fall, never to rise again."
