Prophetia Amos

Amos, chapter 1, Vulgate and King James Version

Chapter 1 Vulgate

   1 Verba Amos, qui fuit in pastori bus de Thecua; quae vidit super Israel in diebus Oziae regis Iudae et in diebus Ieroboam filii Ioas regis Israel, duobus annis ante terraemotum.
   2 Et dixit: "Dominus de Sion rugit et de Ierusalem dat vocem suam; et lugent pascua pastorum, et exsiccatur vertex Carmeli".
   3 Haec dicit Dominus: "Super tribus sceleribus Damasci et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod trituraverint in plaustris ferreis Galaad,
   4 mittam ignem in domum Hazael, et devorabit aedes Benadad;
   5 conteram vectem Damasci et disperdam habitatorem de Biceataven et tenentem sceptrum de Betheden; et transferetur populus Syriae Cir", dicit Dominus.
   6 Haec dicit Dominus: "Super tribus sceleribus Gazae et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod transtulerint captivitatem perfectam, ut traderent eam in Edom,
   7 mittam ignem in murum Gazae, et devorabit aedes eius;
   8 disperdam habitatorem de Azoto et tenentem sceptrum de Ascalone; convertam manum meam super Accaron, et peribunt reliqui Philisthinorum", dicit Dominus Deus.
   9 Haec dicit Dominus: "Super tribus sceleribus Tyri et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod tradiderint captivitatem perfectam in Edom et non sint recordati foederis fratrum,
   10 mittam ignem in murum Tyri, et devorabit aedes eius".
   11 Haec dicit Dominus: "Super tribus sceleribus Edom et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod persecutus sit in gladio fratrem suum et violaverit misericordiam eius et tenuerit ultra furorem suum et indignationem suam servaverit usque in finem,
   12 mittam ignem in Theman, et devorabit aedes Bosrae".
   13 Haec dicit Dominus: "Super tribus sceleribus filiorum Ammon et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod dissecuerint praegnantes Galaad ad dilatandum terminum suum,
   14 succendam ignem in muro Rabba, et devorabit aedes eius in ululatu in die belli et in turbine in die procellae;
   15 et ibit rex eorum in captivitatem, ipse et principes eius simul", dicit Dominus.

King James Version

   1 The words of Amos, who was among the herdmen of Tekoa, which he saw concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.
   2 And he said, The LORD will roar from Zion, and utter his voice from Jerusalem; and the habitations of the shepherds shall mourn, and the top of Carmel shall wither.
   3 Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Damascus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have threshed Gilead with threshing instruments of iron:
   4 But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, which shall devour the palaces of Ben-hadad.
   5 I will break also the bar of Damascus, and cut off the inhabitant from the plain of Aven, and him that holdeth the sceptre from the house of Eden: and the people of Syria shall go into captivity unto Kir, saith the LORD.
   6 ¶ Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they carried away captive the whole captivity, to deliver them up to Edom:
   7 But I will send a fire on the wall of Gaza, which shall devour the palaces thereof:
   8 And I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, and him that holdeth the sceptre from Ashkelon, and I will turn mine hand against Ekron: and the remnant of the Philistines shall perish, saith the Lord GOD.
   9 ¶ Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Tyrus, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, and remembered not the brotherly covenant:
   10 But I will send a fire on the wall of Tyrus, which shall devour the palaces thereof.
   11 ¶ Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of Edom, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because he did pursue his brother with the sword, and did cast off all pity, and his anger did tear perpetually, and he kept his wrath for ever:
   12 But I will send a fire upon Teman, which shall devour the palaces of Bozrah.
   13 ¶ Thus saith the LORD; For three transgressions of the children of Ammon, and for four, I will not turn away the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up the women with child of Gilead, that they might enlarge their border:
   14 But I will kindle a fire in the wall of Rabbah, and it shall devour the palaces thereof, with shouting in the day of battle, with a tempest in the day of the whirlwind:
   15 And their king shall go into captivity, he and his princes together, saith the LORD.
