主耶和华又指给我看：有一筐夏天的果子。
Thus the Lord Jehovah showed me, and there was a basket of summer fruit.

祂说，阿摩司啊，你看见什么？我说，一筐夏天的果子。耶和华对我说，我民以色列的结局到了；我必不再放过他们。
And He said, What do you see, Amos? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then Jehovah said to me, The end has come upon My people Israel; / I will not pass them by anymore.

主耶和华说，那日殿中的诗歌必变为哀号。必有许多尸首在各处被人抛弃。你们不要作声！
And the songs of the temple will be wailings / In that day, declares the Lord Jehovah. / The corpses will be many; / In every place / They will cast them. Hush!

你们这些渴求夺取穷乏人，要除灭地上困苦人的，当听这话。
Hear this, you who pant after the needy / To destroy the wretched of the earth,

你们说，月朔几时过去，我们好卖粮？安息日几时过去，我们好摆开麦子？好把卖出用的量器弄小，把收银用的法码弄大，用诡诈的天平欺哄人；
Saying, When will the new moon be over, that we may sell grain? / And the Sabbath, that we may lay open the wheat? / In order to make the ephah small and the shekel large / And to falsify the balances for deceit;

好用银子买贫寒人，用一双鞋换穷乏人，将坏了的麦子卖给人。
That we may buy the poor for silver / And the needy for a pair of sandals, / And sell the refuse of the wheat.

耶和华指着雅各的超绝起誓，说，他们的一切行为，我必永远不忘。
Jehovah has sworn by the excellency of Jacob, / I shall by no means forget any of their deeds forever.

地岂不因这事震动，住在其上的不也都悲哀么？地必全然像尼罗河涨起，如同埃及河涌上落下。
Will the land not quake because of this, / And will all who dwell in it not mourn? / Indeed all of it will rise up like the River, / And it will be driven and will sink like the river of Egypt.

主耶和华说，到那日，我必使日头在午间落下，使地在白日的光中变暗。
And in that day, / Declares the Lord Jehovah, / I will cause the sun to go down at noon, / And I will darken the land in the light of day.

我必使你们的节期变为悲哀，一切歌曲变为哀歌；我必使众人腰束麻布，头上光秃；也必使这场悲哀如丧独生子，至终如痛苦的日子一样。
And I will turn your feasts into mourning / And all your songs into lamentation; / And I will bring up sackcloth upon all the loins / And baldness upon every head; / And I will make it like the mourning for an only child / And the end of it like a bitter day.

主耶和华说，日子将到，我必打发饥荒临到这地；人饥饿非因无饼，干渴非因无水，乃因听不见耶和华的话。
Indeed days are coming, / Declares the Lord Jehovah, / When I will send a hunger into the land, / Not a hunger for bread / Nor a thirst for water, / But for hearing the words of Jehovah.

他们必飘流，从这海到那海，从北边到东边；往来奔跑寻求耶和华的话，却寻不着。
And they will totter from sea to sea, / And from the north even to the east; / They will rove about, seeking the word of Jehovah, / But they will not find it.

当那日，美貌的处女和少年的男子，必因干渴发昏。
In that day the beautiful virgins and the young men / Will swoon because of thirst.

那指着撒玛利亚罪愆起誓的，说，但哪，我们指着你那里永活的神起誓！又说，我们指着别是巴永活的道起誓；这些人都必仆倒，不再起来。
They who swear by the trespass of Samaria / And say, As your god lives, O Dan! / And, As the way of Beer-sheba lives! / Indeed they will fall and not rise up again.
