Amos 6

NEW JERUSALEM	NOVA VULGATA
1 Disaster for those so comfortable in Zion and for those so confident on the hil of Samaria, the notablesof this first of nations, those to whom the House of Israel has recourse!	1 Vae, qui tranquilli sunt in Sion et confidunt in monte Samariae; designati primitiae populorum, ad quos venit domus Israel!
2 Travel to Calneh and look, go on from there to Hamath the great, then go down to Gath in Philistia. Arethey more powerful than these kingdoms? Is their territory larger than yours?	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 Thinking to defer the evil day, you are hastening the reign of violence.	3 Qui removetis diem malum et appropinquare facitis solium violentiae.
4 Lying on ivory beds and sprawling on their divans, they dine on lambs from the flock, and stal -fattened veal;	4 Qui dormiunt in lectis eburneis, recumbentes in stratis suis, comedentes agnos de grege et vitulos de medio armenti;
5 they bawl to the sound of the lyre and, like David, they invent musical instruments;	5 canentes ad vocem psalterii, sicut David excogitant sibi vasa cantici;
6 they drink wine by the bowlful, and lard themselves with the finest oils, but for the ruin of Joseph theycare nothing.	6 bibentes vinum in phialis, optimis unguentis delibuti, et non sunt contristati super ruina Ioseph.
7 That is why they wil now go into captivity, heading the column of captives. The sprawlers' revelry isover.	7 Quapropter nunc migrabunt in capite transmigrantium, et auferetur factio lascivientium.
8 Lord Yahweh has sworn by his own self -declares Yahweh, God Sabaoth: I detest the pride of Jacob, Ihate his palaces, I shal hand over the city and al 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 If ten people are left in a single house, they wil die	9 Quod si reliqui fuerint decem viri in domo una, et ipsi morientur;
10 and a few will be left to carry the bones from the house, and they will say to anyone deep inside thehouse, 'Any more there?' and he wil answer, 'No.' Then he wil say, 'Hush!-Yahweh's name must not bementioned.'	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 For look, Yahweh gives the command: as he strikes, the great house fal s to pieces and the smalhouse is in fragments.	11 Quia ecce Dominus mandat et percutiet domum maiorem ruinis et domum minorem scissionibus.
12 Can horses gal op over rocks? Can the sea be ploughed with oxen? Yet you have changed justiceinto poison, and the fruit of uprightness into wormwood,	12 Numquid currunt in petris equi, aut aratur mare in bobus, quoniam convertistis in venenum iudicium et fructum iustitiae in absinthium?
13 while rejoicing over Lo-Debar and saying, 'Wasn't it by our own strength that we captured Karnaim?'	13 Qui laetantur pro Lodabar, qui dicunt: “ Numquid non in fortitudine nostra cepimus nobis Carnaim? ”.
14 But look, House of Israel, against you -declares Yahweh, God Sabaoth- I am raising a nation tooppress you from the Pass of Hamath to the Gorge of the Arabah.	14 “ Ecce enim suscitabo super vos, domus Israel, dicit Dominus, Deus exercituum, gentem; et oppriment vos ab introitu Emath usque ad torrentem Arabae ”.
