旧约 -- 阿摩司书(Amos) -- 第3章
3：1 以色列人哪，你们全家是我从埃及地领上来的，当听耶和华攻击你们的话。
Hear this word that the LORD hath spoken against you， O children of Israel， against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt， saying，
3：2 在地上万族中，我只认识你们。因此，我必追讨你们的一切罪孽。
You only have I known of all the families of the earth： therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.
3：3 二人若不同心，岂能同行呢。
Can two walk together， except they be agreed？
3：4 狮子若非抓食，岂能在林中咆哮呢。少壮狮子若无所得，岂能从洞中发声呢。

3：5 若没有机槛，雀鸟岂能陷在网罗里呢。网罗若无所得，岂能从地上翻起呢。
Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth， where no gin is for him？ shall one take up a snare from the earth， and have taken nothing at all？
3：6 城中若吹角，百姓岂不惊恐呢。灾祸若临到一城，岂非耶和华所降的吗。
Shall a trumpet be blown in the city， and the people not be afraid？ shall there be evil in a city， and the LORD hath not done it？
3：7 主耶和华若不将奥秘指示他的仆人众先知，就一无所行。
Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing， but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
3：8 狮子吼叫，谁不惧怕呢。主耶和华发命，谁能不说预言呢。
The lion hath roared， who will not fear？ the Lord GOD hath spoken， who can but prophesy？
3：9 要在亚实突的宫殿中，和埃及地的宫殿里，传扬说，你们要聚集在撒玛利亚的山上，就看见城中有何等大的扰乱与欺压的事。
Publish in the palaces at Ashdod， and in the palaces in the land of Egypt， and say， Assemble yourselves upon the mountains of Samaria， and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof， and the oppressed in the midst thereof.
3：10 那些以强暴抢夺财物，积蓄在自己家中的人，不知道行正直的事。这是耶和华说的。
For they know not to do right， saith the LORD， who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.
3：11 所以主耶和华如此说，敌人必来围攻这地，使你的势力衰微，抢掠你的家宅。
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD； An adversary there shall be even round about the land； and he shall bring down thy strength from thee， and thy palaces shall be spoiled.
3：12 耶和华如此说，牧人怎样从狮子口中抢回两条羊腿或半个耳朵，住撒玛利亚的以色列人躺卧在床角上，或铺绣花毯的榻上，他们得救也不过如此。

3：13 主耶和华万军之神说，当听这话，警戒雅各家。
Hear ye， and testify in the house of Jacob， saith the Lord GOD， the God of hosts，
