Amos 2 – Studienbibel

1 Thus saith559 the LORD3068; For three7969 transgressions6588 of Moab4124, and for four702, I will not turn away7725 the punishment thereof; because he burned8313 the bones6106 of the king4428 of Edom123 into lime7875: 2 But I will send7971 a fire784 upon Moab4124, and it shall devour398 the palaces759 of Kerioth7152: and Moab4124 shall die4191 with tumult7588, with shouting8643, and with the sound6963 of the trumpet7782: 3 And I will cut off3772 the judge8199 from the midst7130 thereof, and will slay2026 all the princes8269 thereof with him, saith559 the LORD3068. 4 Thus saith559 the LORD3068; For three7969 transgressions6588 of Judah3063, and for four702, I will not turn away7725 the punishment thereof; because they have despised3988 the law8451 of the LORD3068, and have not kept8104 his commandments2706, and their lies3577 caused them to err8582, after310 the which their fathers1 have walked1980: 5 But I will send7971 a fire784 upon Judah3063, and it shall devour398 the palaces759 of Jerusalem3389. 6 Thus saith559 the LORD3068; For three7969 transgressions6588 of Israel3478, and for four702, I will not turn away7725 the punishment thereof; because they sold4376 the righteous6662 for silver3701, and the poor34 for a pair of shoes5275; 7 That pant7602 after the dust6083 of the earth776 on the head7218 of the poor1800, and turn aside5186 the way1870 of the meek6035: and a man376 and his father1 will go3212 in unto the same maid5291, to profane2490 my holy6944 name8034:¹ 8 And they lay themselves down5186 upon clothes899 laid to pledge2254 by681 every altar4196, and they drink8354 the wine3196 of the condemned6064 in the house1004 of their god430.²

9 Yet destroyed8045 I the Amorite567 before6440 them, whose height1363 was like the height1363 of the cedars730, and he was strong2634 as the oaks437; yet I destroyed8045 his fruit6529 from above4605, and his roots8328 from beneath. 10 Also I brought you up5927 from the land776 of Egypt4714, and led3212 you forty705 years8141 through the wilderness4057, to possess3423 the land776 of the Amorite567. 11 And I raised up6965 of your sons1121 for prophets5030, and of your young men970 for Nazarites5139. Is it not even thus, O ye children1121 of Israel3478? saith5002 the LORD3068. 12 But ye gave the Nazarites5139 wine3196 to drink8248; and commanded6680 the prophets5030, saying559, Prophesy5012 not. 13 Behold, I am pressed5781 under you, as a cart5699 is pressed5781 that is full4392 of sheaves5995.³ 14 Therefore the flight4498 shall perish6 from the swift7031, and the strong2389 shall not strengthen553 his force3581, neither shall the mighty1368 deliver4422 himself5315:⁴ 15 Neither shall he stand5975 that handleth8610 the bow7198; and he that is swift7031 of foot7272 shall not deliver4422 himself: neither shall he that rideth7392 the horse5483 deliver4422 himself5315. 16 And he that is courageous533 3820 among the mighty1368 shall flee away5127 naked6174 in that day3117, saith5002 the LORD3068.⁵
