οὕτως ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐπιγονὴ ἀκρίδων ἐρχομένη ἑωθινή καὶ ἰδοὺ βροῦχος εἷς Γωγ ὁ βασιλεύς
Thus the Lord showed me, and behold, a swarm of locusts coming in the morning, and behold, one locust, Gog the king

καὶ ἔσται ἐὰν συντελέσῃ τοῦ καταφαγεῖν τὸν χόρτον τῆς γῆς καὶ εἶπα κύριε κύριε ἵλεως γενοῦ τίς ἀναστήσει τὸν Ιακωβ ὅτι ὀλιγοστός ἐστιν
And it shall be that, when it has finished eating up the grass of the land, then I said, Lord, Lord, be gracious; who will raise up Jacob? for he is small.
Repent, O Lord, concerning this, and this shall not be, says the Lord.
οὕτως ἔδειξέν μοι κύριος καὶ ἰδοὺ ἐκάλεσεν τὴν δίκην ἐν πυρὶ κύριος καὶ κατέφαγε τὴν ἄβυσσον τὴν πολλὴν καὶ κατέφαγεν τὴν μερίδα
Thus the Lord showed me; and behold, the Lord called the judgment by fire, and it devoured the great abyss and it devoured the portion
And I said, Lord, Lord, cease now; who will raise up Jacob? for he is small.
Repent, O Lord, concerning this, and this shall not by any means happen, says the Lord.
Thus the Lord showed me, and behold, a man standing on a wall of adamant, and in his hand was adamant.
καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με τί σὺ ὁρᾷς Αμως καὶ εἶπα ἀδάμαντα καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με ἰδοὺ ἐγὼ ἐντάσσω ἀδάμαντα ἐν μέσῳ λαοῦ μου Ισραηλ οὐκέτι μὴ προσθῶ τοῦ παρελθεῖν αὐτόν
And the Lord said to me, What do you see, Amos? And I said, A plumb line. And the Lord said to me, Behold, I am setting a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel; I will no longer again pass by him.
καὶ ἀφανισθήσονται βωμοὶ τοῦ γέλωτος καὶ αἱ τελεταὶ τοῦ Ισραηλ ἐξερημωθήσονται καὶ ἀναστήσομαι ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ιεροβοαμ ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ
And the altars of laughter shall be abolished, and the rites of Israel shall be laid waste, and I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with a sword.
καὶ ἐξαπέστειλεν Αμασιας ὁ ἱερεὺς Βαιθηλ πρὸς Ιεροβοαμ βασιλέα Ισραηλ λέγων συστροφὰς ποιεῖται κατὰ σοῦ Αμως ἐν μέσῳ οἴκου Ισραηλ οὐ μὴ δύνηται ἡ γῆ ὑπενεγκεῖν ἅπαντας τοὺς λόγους αὐτοῦ
And Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos is making a conspiracy against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land will not be able to bear all his words.
διότι τάδε λέγει Αμως ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ τελευτήσει Ιεροβοαμ ὁ δὲ Ισραηλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ
Because thus says Amos: Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will be led away captive from his land.
καὶ εἶπεν Αμασιας πρὸς Αμως ὁ ὁρῶν βάδιζε ἐκχώρησον εἰς γῆν Ιουδα καὶ ἐκεῖ καταβίου καὶ ἐκεῖ προφητεύσεις
And Amaziah said to Amos, the seer: Go, withdraw into the land of Judah, and there eat your bread, and there you shall prophesy.
εἰς δὲ Βαιθηλ οὐκέτι μὴ προσθῇς τοῦ προφητεῦσαι ὅτι ἁγίασμα βασιλέως ἐστὶν καὶ οἶκος βασιλείας ἐστίν
But at Bethel you shall no longer continue to prophesy, because it is the king’s sanctuary and it is the house of the kingdom.
καὶ ἀπεκρίθη Αμως καὶ εἶπεν πρὸς Αμασιαν οὐκ ἤμην προφήτης ἐγὼ οὐδὲ υἱὸς προφήτου ἀλλ᾿ ἢ αἰπόλος ἤμην καὶ κνίζων συκάμινα
And Amos answered and said to Amaziah, I was not a prophet, nor a son of a prophet, but I was a shepherd and a dresser of sycamore figs.
καὶ ἀνέλαβέν με κύριος ἐκ τῶν προβάτων καὶ εἶπεν κύριος πρός με βάδιζε προφήτευσον ἐπὶ τὸν λαόν μου Ισραηλ
And the Lord took me from among the sheep, and the Lord said to me, Go, prophesy against my people Israel.
καὶ νῦν ἄκουε λόγον κυρίου σὺ λέγεις μὴ προφήτευε ἐπὶ τὸν Ισραηλ καὶ οὐ μὴ ὀχλαγωγήσῃς ἐπὶ τὸν οἶκον Ιακωβ
And now hear the word of the Lord: You say, Do not prophesy against Israel, and you shall surely not stir up a crowd against the house of Jacob.
διὰ τοῦτο τάδε λέγει κύριος ἡ γυνή σου ἐν τῇ πόλει πορνεύσει καὶ οἱ υἱοί σου καὶ αἱ θυγατέρες σου ἐν ῥομφαίᾳ πεσοῦνται καὶ ἡ γῆ σου ἐν σχοινίῳ καταμετρηθήσεται καὶ σὺ ἐν γῇ ἀκαθάρτῳ τελευτήσεις ὁ δὲ Ισραηλ αἰχμάλωτος ἀχθήσεται ἀπὸ τῆς γῆς αὐτοῦ
Therefore thus says the Lord: your wife shall prostitute herself in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be measured by line, and you shall die in an unclean land; and Israel shall be led away captive from his land.
