Amos 6

NEW AMERICAN BIBLE	NOVA VULGATA
1 Woe to the complacent in Zion, to the overconfident on the mount of Samaria, Leaders of a nation favored from the first, to whom the people of Israel have recourse!	1 Vae, qui tranquilli sunt in Sion et confidunt in monte Samariae; designati primitiae populorum, ad quos venit domus Israel!
2 Pass over to Calneh and see, go from there to Hamath the great, and down to Gath of the Philistines! Are you better than these kingdoms, or is your territory wider than theirs?	2 Transite in Chalanne et videte; et ite inde in Emath magnam et descendite in Geth Palaestinorum. Numquid meliores regnis istis vos, aut latior terminus eorum termino vestro est?
3 You would put off the evil day, yet you hasten the reign of violence!	3 Qui removetis diem malum et appropinquare facitis solium violentiae.
4 Lying upon beds of ivory, stretched comfortably on their couches, They eat lambs taken from the flock, and calves from the stall!	4 Qui dormiunt in lectis eburneis, recumbentes in stratis suis, comedentes agnos de grege et vitulos de medio armenti;
5 Improvising to the music of the harp, like David, they devise their own accompaniment.	5 canentes ad vocem psalterii, sicut David excogitant sibi vasa cantici;
6 They drink wine from bowls and anoint themselves with the best oils; yet they are not made ill by the collapse of Joseph!	6 bibentes vinum in phialis, optimis unguentis delibuti, et non sunt contristati super ruina Ioseph.
7 Therefore, now they shall be the first to go into exile, and their wanton revelry shall be done away with.	7 Quapropter nunc migrabunt in capite transmigrantium, et auferetur factio lascivientium.
8 The Lord GOD has sworn by his very self, say I, the LORD, the God of hosts: I abhor the pride of Jacob, I hate his castles, and I give over the city with everything in it;	8 Iuravit Dominus Deus in anima sua, dicit Dominus, Deus exercituum: “ Detestor ego superbiam Iacob et domos eius odi et tradam civitatem et plenitudinem eius ”.
9 Should there remain ten men in a single house, these shall die.	9 Quod si reliqui fuerint decem viri in domo una, et ipsi morientur;
10 Only a few shall be left to carry the dead out of the houses; If one says to a man inside a house, "Is anyone with you?" and he answers, "No one," Then he shall say, "Silence!" for no one must mention the name of the LORD.	10 et tollet eum propinquus suus et comburet eum, ut efferat ossa de domo, et dicet ei, qui in penetralibus domus est: “ Numquid adhuc est penes te? ”. Et respondebit: “Non est”; et dicet ei: “Tace!”; non est qui recordetur nominis Domini.
11 Indeed, the LORD has given the command to shatter the great house to bits, and reduce the small house to rubble.	11 Quia ecce Dominus mandat et percutiet domum maiorem ruinis et domum minorem scissionibus.
12 Can horses run across a cliff? or can one plow the sea with oxen? Yet you have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit of justice into wormwood.	12 Numquid currunt in petris equi, aut aratur mare in bobus, quoniam convertistis in venenum iudicium et fructum iustitiae in absinthium?
13 You rejoice in Lodebar, and say, "Have we not, by our own strength, seized for ourselves Karnaim?"	13 Qui laetantur pro Lodabar, qui dicunt: “ Numquid non in fortitudine nostra cepimus nobis Carnaim? ”.
14 Beware, I am raising up against you, O house of Israel, say I, the LORD, the God of hosts, A nation that shall oppress you from Labo of Hamath even to the Wadi Arabah.	14 “ Ecce enim suscitabo super vos, domus Israel, dicit Dominus, Deus exercituum, gentem; et oppriment vos ab introitu Emath usque ad torrentem Arabae ”.
