Amos 2

NOVA VULGATA	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Haec dicit Dominus: “ Super tribus sceleribus Moab et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod incenderit ossa regis Edom usque ad cinerem,	1 Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Moab, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath burnt the bones of the king of Edom even to ashes.
2 mittam ignem in Moab, et devorabit aedes Carioth, et morietur in tumultu Moab, in clamore et voce tubae;	2 And I will seed a fire into Moab, and it shall devour the houses of Carioth: and Moab shall die with a noise, with the sound of the trumpet:
3 disperdam iudicem de medio eius et omnes principes eius interficiam cum eo ”, dicit Dominus.	3 And I will cut off the judge from the midst thereof, and will slay all his princes with him, saith the Lord.
4 Haec dicit Dominus: “ Super tribus sceleribus Iudae et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod abiecerint legem Domini et mandata eius non custodierint C deceperunt enim eos idola sua, post quae abierant patres eorum C	4 Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Juda, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath cast away the law of the Lord, and hath not kept his commandments: for their idols have caused them to err, after which their fathers have walked.
5 mittam ignem in Iudam, et devorabit aedes Ierusalem ”.	5 And I will send a fire into Juda, and it shall devour the houses of Jerusalem.
6 Haec dicit Dominus: “ Super tribus sceleribus Israel et super quattuor verbum non revocabo: eo quod vendiderint pro argento iustum et pauperem pro calceamentis;	6 Thus saith the Lord: For three crimes of Israel, and for four I will not convert him: because he hath sold the just man for silver, and the poor man for a pair of shoes.
7 qui contriverint super pulverem terrae capita pauperum et viam humilium declinaverint, et filius ac pater eius iverint ad puellam, ut violarent nomen sanctum meum;	7 They bruise the heads of the poor upon the dust of the earth, and turn aside the way of the humble: and the son and his father have gone to the same young woman, to profane my holy name.
8 et super vestimentis pignoratis accubuerint iuxta omne altare et vinum damnatorum biberint in domo Dei sui.	8 And they sat down upon garments laid to pledge by every altar: and drank the wine of the condemned in the house of their God.
9 Ego autem exterminaveram Amorraeum a facie eorum, cuius altitudo sicut altitudo cedrorum, et fortitudo quasi quercuum; exterminaveram fructum eius desuper et radices eius subter.	9 Yet I cast out the Amorrhite before their face: whose height was like the height of cedars, and who was strong as an oak: and I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots beneath.
10 Ego ascendere vos feci de terra Aegypti et duxi vos in deserto quadraginta annis, ut possideretis terram Amorraei;	10 It is I that brought you up out of the land of Egypt, and I led you forty years through the wilderness, that you might possess the land of the Amorrhite.
11 et suscitavi de filiis vestris prophetas et de iuvenibus vestris nazaraeos. Numquid non ita est, filii Israel?, dicit Dominus.	11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your young men for Nazarites. Is it not so, O ye children of Israel, saith the Lord?
12 Et propinastis nazaraeis vinum et prophetis mandastis dicentes: “Ne prophetetis”.	12 And you will present wine to the Nazarites: and command the prophets, saying: Prophesy not.
13 Ecce ego comprimam vos ad solum, sicut comprimit plaustrum onustum feno;	13 Behold, I will screak under you as a wain screaketh that is laden with hay.
14 deerit fuga a veloce, et fortis non firmabit virtutem suam, et robustus non salvabit animam suam;	14 And flight shall perish from the swift, and the valiant shall not possess his strength, neither shall the strong save his life.
15 tenens arcum non stabit, et velox pedibus suis non salvabitur; ascensor equi non salvabit animam suam,	15 And he that holdeth the bow shall not stand, and the swift of foot shall not escape, neither shall the rider of the horse save his life.
16 et fortissimus corde inter robustos nudus fugiet in illa die ”, dicit Dominus.	16 And the stout of heart among the valiant shall flee away naked in that day, saith the Lord.
