| 6 1 | "Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who feel secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the first of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come! | The destruction of Israel. Am.6.1-14 | הֹוי הַשַּׁאֲנַנִּים בְּצִיֹּון וְהַבֹּטְחִים בְּהַר שֹׁמְרֹון נְקֻבֵי רֵאשִׁית הַגֹּויִם וּבָאוּ לָהֶם בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ |
| 2 | Pass over to Calneh, and see; and thence go to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? Or is their territory greater than your territory, | עִבְרוּ כַלְנֵה וּרְאוּ וּלְכוּ מִשָּׁם חֲמַת רַבָּה וּרְדוּ גַת־פְּלִשְׁתִּים הֲטֹובִים מִן־הַמַּמְלָכֹות הָאֵלֶּה אִם־רַב גְּבוּלָם מִגְּבֻלְכֶם׃ | |
| 3 | O you who put far away the evil day, and bring near the seat of violence? | הַמְנַדִּים לְיֹום רָע וַתַּגִּישׁוּן שֶׁבֶת חָמָס׃ | |
| 4 | "Woe to those who lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat lambs from the flock, and calves from the midst of the stall; | הַשֹּׁכְבִים עַל־מִטֹּות שֵׁן וּסְרֻחִים עַל־עַרְשֹׂותָם וְאֹכְלִים כָּרִים מִצֹּאן וַעֲגָלִים מִתֹּוךְ מַרְבֵּק׃ | |
| 5 | who sing idle songs to the sound of the harp, and like David invent for themselves instruments of music; | הַפֹּרְטִים עַל־פִּי הַנָּבֶל כְּדָוִיד חָשְׁבוּ לָהֶם כְּלֵי־שִׁיר׃ | |
| 6 | who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the finest oils, but are not grieved over the ruin of Joseph! | הַשֹּׁתִים בְּמִזְרְקֵי יַיִן וְרֵאשִׁית שְׁמָנִים יִמְשָׁחוּ וְלֹא נֶחְלוּ עַל־שֵׁבֶר יֹוסֵף׃ | |
| 7 | Therefore they shall now be the first of those to go into exile, and the revelry of those who stretch themselves shall pass away." | לָכֵן עַתָּה יִגְלוּ בְּרֹאשׁ גֹּלִים וְסָר מִרְזַח סְרוּחִים׃ ף | |
| 8 | The Yahweh GOD has sworn by himself (says Yahweh, the God of hosts): "I abhor the pride of Jacob, and hate his strongholds; and I will deliver up the city and all that is in it." | נִשְׁבַּע אֲדֹנָי יְהוִה בְּנַפְשֹׁו נְאֻם־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי צְבָאֹות מְתָאֵב אָנֹכִי אֶת־גְּאֹון יַעֲקֹב וְאַרְמְנֹתָיו שָׂנֵאתִי וְהִסְגַּרְתִּי עִיר וּמְלֹאָהּ׃ | |
| 9 | And if ten men remain in one house, they shall die. | וְהָיָה אִם־יִוָּתְרוּ עֲשָׂרָה אֲנָשִׁים בְּבַיִת אֶחָד וָמֵתוּ׃ | |
| 10 | And when a man's kinsman, he who burns him, shall take him up to bring the bones out of the house, and shall say to him who is in the innermost parts of the house, "Is there still any one with you?" he shall say, "No"; and he shall say, "Hush! We must not mention the name of Yahweh." | וּנְשָׂאֹו דֹּודֹו וּמְסָרְפֹו לְהֹוצִיא עֲצָמִים מִן־הַבַּיִת וְאָמַר לַאֲשֶׁר בְּיַרְכְּתֵי הַבַּיִת הַעֹוד עִמָּךְ וְאָמַר אָפֶס וְאָמַר הָס כִּי לֹא לְהַזְכִּיר בְּשֵׁם יְהוָה׃ | |
| 11 | For behold, Yahweh commands, and the great house shall be smitten into fragments, and the little house into bits. | כִּי־הִנֵּה יְהוָה מְצַוֶּה וְהִכָּה הַבַּיִת הַגָּדֹול רְסִיסִים וְהַבַּיִת הַקָּטֹן בְּקִעִים׃ | |
| 12 | Do horses run upon rocks? Does one plow the sea with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood - | הַיְרֻצוּן בַּסֶּלַע סוּסִים אִם־יַחֲרֹושׁ בַּבְּקָרִים כִּי־הֲפַכְתֶּם לְרֹאשׁ מִשְׁפָּט וּפְרִי צְדָקָה לְלַעֲנָה׃ | |
| 13 | you who rejoice in Lo-debar, who say, "Have we not by our own strength taken Karnaim for ourselves?" | הַשְּׂמֵחִים לְלֹא דָבָר הָאֹמְרִים הֲלֹוא בְחָזְקֵנוּ לָקַחְנוּ לָנוּ קַרְנָיִם׃ | |
| 14 | "For behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel," says Yahweh, the God of hosts; "and they shall oppress you from the entrance of Hamath to the Brook of the Arabah." | כִּי הִנְנִי מֵקִים עֲלֵיכֶם בֵּית יִשְׂרָאֵל נְאֻם־יְהוָה אֱלֹהֵי הַצְּבָאֹות גֹּוי וְלָחֲצוּ אֶתְכֶם מִלְּבֹוא חֲמָת עַד־נַחַל הָעֲרָבָה׃ ס | |
