1INkosi uJehova yangibonisa kanje; bheka, wenza isikhonyane ekuqaleni kokuhluma kotshani lokugcina; bheka, kwakuyihlaza lokugcina ngemva kokusikwa kwenkosi.
2Kwathi seziqedile ukudla utshani belizwe, ngathi: Nkosi Jehova, ngithethelele; uJakobe uzakuma ngobani? ngoba mncane.
3UJehova wazisola ngalokhu: Ngeke kwenzeke, kusho uJehova.
4INkosi uJehova yangibonisa kanje: bheka, iNkosi uJehova yabiza ukulwa ngomlilo; waqeda uzamcolo omkhulu, waqeda ingxenye yawo.
5Ngasengisithi: Nkosi Jehova, yima! uJakobe uyakusukuma ngobani na? ngoba mncane.
6INkosi yazisola ngalokhu: Nalokhu akuyikwenzeka, isho iNkosi uJehova.
7Yangibonisa kanje: bheka, iNkosi yayimi odongeni olwenziwe ngentambo yomthofu wokumisa, iphethe intambo yomthofu wokumisa esandleni sayo.
8UJehova wathi kimi: “Amose, ubonani na? Futhi ngathi: Umthofu. Wayesethi uJehova: “Bheka, ngibeka intambo yomthofu wokumisa phakathi kwabantu bami u-Israyeli; ngeke ngisadlula kubo.
9Iziqongo zakwa-Isaka ziyakuba yihlane, nezindawo ezingcwele zakwa-Israyeli zichitheke; futhi ngizovukela indlu kaJerobowamu ngenkemba.
10U-Amasiya, umpristi waseBethele, wathumela kuJerobowamu inkosi yakwa-Israyeli, wathi: “U-Amose ukwakhele indlu yakwa-Israyeli ugobe; izwe alikwazi ukuthwala wonke amazwi alo.
11Ngokuba usho kanje u-Amose, uthi: “UJerobowamu uyakufa ngenkemba, u-Israyeli athunjwe nokuthunjwa asuke ezweni lakhe.
12U-Amasiya wathi ku-Amose: “Mboni, suka, ubalekele nawe ezweni lakwaJuda, udle khona isinkwa, uprofethe khona.”
13Kodwa ungabe usaprofetha eBhetheli, ngoba liyindlu yenkosi lendlu yenkosi.
14Wayesephendula u-Amose, wathi ku-Amasiya: “Angisuye umprofethi, nandodana yomprofethi; kodwa ngangingumalusi nomvuni wemisikhamori;
15UJehova wangithatha ngisalandela umhlambi, futhi uJehova wathi kimi: ‘Hamba uprofethe kubantu bami u-Israyeli.
16Manje yizwa izwi likaJehova: Wena uthi: Ungaprofethi ngokumelene no-Israyeli, futhi ungavumeli izwi lakho lehlele indlu ka-Isaka.
17Ngalokho usho kanje uJehova, uthi: “Umkakho uyakuba isifebe emzini, amadodana akho namadodakazi akho ayakuwa ngenkemba, izwe lakho lihlukaniswe ngentambo; futhi niyofela ezweni elingcolile, futhi u-Israyeli ngokuqinisekile uyoya ekudingisweni asuke ezweni lakhe.
