Ukwahlulelwa okuzayo
1Amazwi ka-Amose owayephakathi kwabelusi baseThekhowa awabona ngo-Israyeli emihleni ka-Uziya inkosi yakwaJuda nasemihleni kaJerobowamu indodana kaJowashi inkosi yakwa-Israyeli iminyaka emibili ngaphambi kokuzamazama komhlaba.
2Wathi: “UJehova uyakubhonga eseSiyoni, aphakamise izwi lakhe eJerusalema; amadlelo abelusi ayakulila, nesiqongo seKarmeli sibune.
3Usho kanje uJehova; Eziphambekweni ezintathu zaseDamaseku nangezine angiyikukubuyisa isijeziso sayo; ngoba babhula iGileyadi ngezibhulo zensimbi.
4Kodwa ngiyakuthuma umlilo endlini kaHasayeli, uqede izindlu zobukhosi zikaBeni Hadadi.
5Ngiyakwaphula umgoqo waseDamaseku, nginqume abakhileyo ethafeni lase-Aveni nophethe intonga yobukhosi endlini yase-Edene; futhi abantu base-Aramu bayothunjelwa eKhiri,” kusho uJehova.
6Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zeGaza, nangenxa yezine, angiyikukubuyisa ukujeziswa kwalo; ngoba bathumba bonke abathunjwa ukuze babanikele kuEdoma.
7Kodwa ngizathumela umlilo phezu komduli weGaza, ozaqeda izindlu zayo zamakhosi.
8Ngiyakunquma owakhileyo e-Ashidodi nophethe intonga e-Ashikeloni, ngiphendulele isandla sami phezu kwe-Ekroni; insali yamaFilisti iyoshabalala, isho iNkosi uJehova.
9Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zeTire, ngenxa yezine, angiyikukubuyisa ukujeziswa kwalo; ngoba banikela bonke ekuthunjweni ku-Edomi futhi abazange bacabange ngesivumelwano sobuzalwane.
10Kodwa ngizathumela umlilo phezu komduli weTire, ozaqeda izindlu zayo zamakhosi.
11Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zakwa-Edomi, nangenxa yezine, angiyikuguquka; ngokuba waxosha umfowabo ngenkemba, walahla lonke uzwelo, nolaka lwakhe lwaludabukile njalo, futhi wagcina ulaka lwakhe kuze kube phakade.
12Kodwa ngizathumela umlilo eThemani, ozaqeda izigodlo zeBhozira.
13Usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Ngenxa yeziphambeko ezintathu zabantwana bakwa-Amoni, nangenxa yezine, angiyikukubuyisa ukujeziswa kwabo; ngoba badwengula abesifazane abakhulelweyo bakwaGileyadi ukuze bandise umngcele wabo.
14Kodwa ngizaphemba umlilo odongeni lweRaba, njalo uzaqeda izigodlo zalo, ngentokozo ngosuku lwempi, ngesivunguzane ngosuku lwesiphepho.
15Inkosi yabo iyakuthunjwa, yona nezikhulu zayo kanyekanye,” usho uJehova.
