OET AMOS chapter 5

5 Hear this message of mourning over you that I take up, people of Israel:

2 The virgin Israel has fallen—she won’t rise again.

She’s abandoned on her land—there’s no one to help her up,

3 because this is what the Lord Yahweh says:

“The city that went out with a thousand warriors will have a hundred left,

≈and the one that went out with a hundred will have ten left belonging to the nation of Israel.”

4 This is what Yahweh says to the people of Israel:

“Seek me and live!

5 Don’t seek Beyt-El (which means ‘God’s house’)

≈or enter Gilgal;

Don’t journey down to Beersheba.

Because Gilgal will surely go into captivity,

≈and Beyt-El will become nothing.

6 Seek Yahweh and live,

or he will break out like fire among Yosef’s descendants.

It will devour, and there will be no one to quench it in Beyt-El.

3 If/because thus my_master he _says YHWH the_city the_marches _out a _thousand it _will _have _left a _hundred and_the_marches _out a _hundred it _will _have _left ten to_house _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel).
4 if/because thus YHWH he _says to_house _of Yisrā^ʼēl/(Israel) seek_me and_live.
5 And_not seek Bēyt- el and_the_Gilgāl not you _all _must _go and_Bəʼēr- seven not you _all _must _pass _over if/because the_Gilgāl certainly _(go _into _exile) it _will _go _into _exile and_Bēyt- el it _will _become to_nothing.
6 Seek DOM YHWH and_live lest he _should _rush like _a_fire the _house _of Yōşēf/(Joseph) and_devour and_none one _who_extinguishes for_Bēyt- el.
7 The_turn into_wormwood justice and_righteousness to _the_ground they _thrust _down.
8 The_one _who_made _of (of)_Pleiades and_orion and_turns into _the_morning deep _darkness and_day night he _makes _dark the_calls for_waters _of the_sea and_pours _out_them on the _surface _of the_earth/land is_YHWH his/its_name.
9 the_flash _out devastation on the_strong and_destruction on a _fortress it _will _come.
10 They _hate in/on/at/with_gate one _who_reproves and_speaks blameless they _abhor.
11 For_so/thus/hence because trample_you _all on the_poor and_tax _of grain you _all _take from_him/it houses _of hewn_stone you _all _have _built and_not you _all _will _dwell in/on/at/with_them vineyards _of desire you _all _have _planted and_not you _all _will _drink DOM wine _of_their.
12 If/because I _know many transgressions _of_your _all’s and_great sins _of_your _all’s Oh _foes _of the_righteous Oh_you _all _who_take _of (of)_a _ransom and_poor in/on/at/with_gate they _turn _aside.
13 For_so/thus/hence the_prudent in/on/at/with_time the_such he _will _be _silent if/because is_a _time evil it.
14 Seek good and_not evil so _that you _all _may _live and_let _it _be right YHWH god _of hosts with_you _all just_as you _all _have _said.
15 Hate evil and_love good and_establish in/on/at/with_gate justice perhaps he _will _show _favour _to YHWH god _of hosts the _remnant _of Yōşēf/(Joseph).
16 for_so/thus/hence thus YHWH he _says god _of hosts my_master in_all the_open _places wailing and_on/over_all the_streets people _will _say alas alas and_call a _farmer to mourning and_lamentation to those _who_know _of (of)_mourning _song[s].
17 And_on/over_all the_vineyards wailing if/because I _will _pass in/on/at/with_midst _of_you YHWH he _says.
