阿摩司书第3章

《圣经》阿摩司书-第3章

摩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：

†[吕]以色列人哪，你们要听这话，就是永恒主所说来攻击你们，攻击以色列全家族，就是我从埃及地所领上来的。永恒主说：

†[思]以色列子民！你们应听从上主关于你们，即由埃及领出来的全体民族所说的话：“

†[当代]以色列人，你们听啊！领你们全族出埃及的主责备你们说：

†[新译]以色列人哪！要听耶和华攻击你们的这些话，就是攻击他从埃及地领上来的以色列全家，说：

†[Wlb]以色列人欤、耶和华责所导出埃及之全家、其言尔当听之、

†[Xdv]以色列人哪，你们要听上主告诉你们的话；这些话是向你们全国人民讲的。上主曾经从埃及把你们领出来；

†[Kjv]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,

†[Nkjv]Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:

†[BBE]Give ear to this word which the Lord has said against you, O children of Israel, against all the family which I took up out of the land of Egypt, saying,

†[GNT] People of Israel, listen to this message which the Lord has spoken about you, the entire nation that he brought out of Egypt:

†[NIV]Hear this word the Lord has spoken against you, O people of Israel-against the whole family I brought up out of Egypt:

本会注释　　你们全家。指以色列十二个支派，上帝把他们“从埃及地领上来”，向他们显示了祂的大爱（见摩2:10）。但以下的谴责主要针对北方以色列王国。
　　当听耶和华攻击你们的话。这个说法出现在摩3、4、5章的开头，引出三个明确的信息，指出以色列的罪，并宣告因这些罪，上帝的惩罚即将临到。其中第一个信息把以色列带到上帝神圣的法庭之前，强调祂和祂的子民之间现存的疏远（见第3,10节）。关于这个信息的主旨，见第3节。

摩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。 (串)申7:6;10:15|但9:12太11:22路12:47

†[吕]“在地上万家族中只有你们是我的知交；因此我必察罚你们，罚你们一切的罪孽。

†[思]由世界上一切种族中，我只选择了你们，为此，我必惩罚你们的罪恶。

†[当代]“我在世上万族之中只拣选了你们，你们却犯了罪，因此，我要惩罚你们。

†[新译]“地上万族中，我只拣选了你；因此，我必追讨你们的一切罪。”

†[Wlb]地上诸族、我惟识尔、故尔诸愆、我必报之、

†[Xdv]他说：“在全世界那么多国家中，我选上了你们，你们还犯了那么多的罪；正因为这个缘故，我一定要惩罚你们。”

†[Kjv]You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.

†[Nkjv]"You only have I known of all the families of the earth; Therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities."

†[BBE]You only of all the families of the earth have I taken care of: for this reason I will send punishment on you for all your sins.

†[GNT] "Of all the nations on earth, you are the only one I have known and cared for. That is what makes your sins so terrible, and that is why I must punish you for them."

†[NIV]You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins."

本会注释　　我只认识你们。圣经经常强调上帝与以色列人的特殊关系（见申4:7,20；14:2；撒下7:23；代上17:21；罗9:4,5）。当以色列作为一个民族，拒绝履行其崇高的特权，不接受自己的职责时，这种宠爱就从她身上，转移到上帝在世界的属灵之家──基督教会中（见本书35、36页）。我们藉着相信基督为个人的救主，获得属灵的新生，从而被带进上帝的家（见加3:26,29；约1:12,13；3:3；彼后1:4）。这样，我们就成为“上帝的儿女”（约壹3:1），“和基督同作后嗣”（罗8:17），接受恩典和一切家庭特权（见加4:6,7）。
　　追讨。由于以色列享有至高的特权和丰富的亮光，上帝会特别惩罚他们的罪孽。我们越清楚自己与上帝的属灵亲情，拒绝上帝的性质就越严重，越要承受这种行为的后果。不可滥用重大的特权，否则会遭受重大的惩罚（见路12:47,48）。上帝依然爱我们，所以祂尝试另外一个方法。惩罚乃是“奇异的事”，要在道德和灵性上纠正我们（见赛28:21）。
　　你们的一切罪孽。北方以色列王国的主要罪孽是背道（见摩3:14；4:4；5:4,5）。但本章所揭露特别招惹上帝斥责和惩罚的罪孽，是道德的极端败坏，贪婪和奢侈，结果是完全无视对于邻居的神圣责任，欺压穷人。最后一项罪恶一再引起严厉的责备（见摩2:6,7；4:1；5:11,12；8:5,6）。阿摩司强烈谴责达官贵人疏忽和滥用他们的财富和影响。他们本来应该用这些福分来治疗腐败和贫穷。

摩3:3 二人若不同心，岂能同行呢？

†[吕]“二人若不约定（或译：同心。七十子调换字母作‘相知’），哪能一同走路呢？

†[思]二人除非预约，岂能同行。

†[当代]你们的罪孽把我和你们隔离，我们又怎能同行呢？”

†[新译]二人如果没有约定，怎会同行呢？

†[Wlb]二人若不相约、岂能偕行乎、

†[Xdv]两个人不同意，他们会并肩走路吗？

†[Kjv]Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

†[Nkjv]Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

†[BBE]Is it possible for two to go walking together, if not by agreement?

†[GNT] Do two people start traveling together without arranging to meet?

†[NIV]Do two walk together unless they have agreed to do so?

本会注释　　二人若不 见@摩2:4@注释。这是三个信息中的第一个信息的主旨（见@摩3:1@注释）。
　　同心。直译为“有一个约会”。二人若不同心，就不能同行。同样，如果以色列人坚持自己的罪孽，就不能维持与上帝的关系（第2节）。七十士译本的翻译很有意思：“二人若不相识，岂能同行？”与上帝“同行”不是偶然之举，而是因固定关系而产生的持续习惯。这是同心合意的伴侣关系。二人若要同行，就必须方向一致。

摩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？

†[吕]狮子若非有所抓撕，哪能在森林中吼叫呢？少壮狮子若无所捕获，哪能从洞中发声呢？

†[思]狮子若无猎物，岂能在林中咆哮？幼狮除非捕到食物，岂能在洞中吼叫？

†[当代]“森林的狮子倘若不是抓到了猎物又怎么会咆哮呢？洞中的小狮子倘若不是擒得食物又怎会吼叫呢？

†[新译]狮子如果不是捕获猎物，怎会在林中吼叫？少壮狮子如果没有捕获什么，怎会在洞中咆哮呢？

†[Wlb]狮未攫物、岂咆哮于林乎、稚狮无所获、岂怒吼于穴乎、

†[Xdv]狮子没有发现猎物，它会在树林中咆哮吗？少壮的狮子没有抓到东西，它会在洞里吼叫吗？

†[Kjv]Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?

†[Nkjv]Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?

†[BBE]Will a lion give his loud cry in the woodland when no food is there? will the voice of the young lion be sounding from his hole if he has taken nothing?

†[GNT] Does a lion roar in the forest unless he has found a victim? Does a young lion growl in his den unless he has caught something?

†[NIV]Does a lion roar in the thicket when he has no prey? Does he growl in his den when he has caught nothing?

本会注释　　先知在向同胞宣布惩罚之前，先用一些比喻来说明有果必有因，和有因必有果。狮子在准备扑向猎物的时候吼得最厉害。同样，当上帝通过先知发出声音的时候，可以确定祂快要惩罚祂的子民了（参摩1:2；3:8）。

摩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？

†[吕]若没有诱饵，雀鸟哪能陷在地上的机槛呢？捕机若无所捕得，哪能从地上翻跳起呢？

†[思]雀鸟若无饵食，岂能落在地上？机楹若无所获，岂能由地上翻起？

†[当代]倘若没有诱饵，鸟儿又怎会陷进地上的罗网里呢？倘若没有什么掉进陷阱里，圈套又怎么会弹合起来呢？

†[新译]如果没有饵，雀鸟怎会掉在地上的网罗中？网罗如果没有捕获雀鸟，怎会从地上翻起呢？

†[Wlb]地上若未设机、鸟岂罹于网乎、无有所获、机岂起于地乎、

†[Xdv]如果捕鸟机没有饵，飞鸟会被抓住吗？没有东西碰捕鸟机，它的弹簧会跳动吗？

†[Kjv]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?

†[Nkjv]Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no trap for it? Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?

†[BBE]Is it possible for a bird to be taken in a net on the earth where no net has been put for him? will the net come up from the earth if it has taken nothing at all?

†[GNT] Does a bird get caught in a trap if the trap has not been baited? Does a trap spring unless something sets it off?

†[NIV]Does a bird fall into a trap on the ground where no snare has been set? Does a trap spring up from the earth when there is nothing to catch?

本会注释　　机槛。“诱饵”或“鸟夹子”。可能是一张网，连着一个支棍，一旦触及，网就会落下，罩住鸟儿。
　　雀鸟岂能陷？若没有圈套，就捕捉不到鸟儿。同样，当罪人给自己安放罪恶的圈套时，他就躲不开惩罚的后果（见诗7:15,16；9:15；40:12；箴5:22）。
　　无所得。正如网罗不会在没有掠物的时候落下或收起，同样，先知也不会在罪人不该受罚的时候宣布上帝的惩罚。

摩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？ (串)赛45:7

†[吕]城中若吹了号角，人民哪有不震颤发抖呢？若有灾祸临到一座城，岂不是永恒主所降的么？

†[思]如在城中吹起号角，人民岂不恐怖？如城发生灾祸，岂不是上主所为？

†[当代]如果城中吹起警号，居民又怎么会不颤栗发抖呢？倘若灾祸降临，岂不也是主的作为吗？

†[新译]城中如果吹起号角，居民怎会不惊慌呢？灾祸如果临到某城，不是耶和华所降的吗？

†[Wlb]邑中吹角、民岂不惧乎、邑中遭祸、岂非耶和华所为乎、

†[Xdv]作战的警号一响，城里的居民会不害怕吗？除非出于上主的旨意，灾祸会临到那城吗？

†[Kjv]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?

†[Nkjv]If a trumpet is blown in a city, will not the people be afraid? If there is calamity in a city, will not the LORD have done it?

†[BBE]If the horn is sounded in the town will the people not be full of fear? will evil come on a town if the Lord has not done it?

†[GNT] Does the war trumpet sound in a city without making the people afraid? Does disaster strike a city unless the Lord sends it?

†[NIV]When a trumpet sounds in a city, do not the people tremble? When disaster comes to a city, has not the Lord caused it?

本会注释　　角。希伯来语是shophar“公羊的角”），主要用来发信号（见本书卷三39页）。角声突然在一座城市中发出，会引起市民的恐慌。阿摩司的信息同样也引起了恐慌（见结33:2-5）。
　　灾祸。这里指灾难，痛苦和惩罚（见@赛45:7；63:17@注释），把临近以色列的毁灭和它首都撒玛利亚的失陷，说成是来自上帝的。迫近的敌人只是祂的工具而已（赛10:5，见《先知与君王》291页）。圣经常把这类危机中的事件直接归因于上帝（见撒上18:10；王上22:19-23；伯1:6-12；赛45:7；见@代下18:18@注释）。

摩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。 (串)创6:13;18:17诗25:14

†[吕]是的，主永恒主若有所作为，他没有不将其机密启示他仆人、众神言人的。

†[思]的确，上主若不先将自己的计划启示给自己的先知，什么也不作。

†[当代]从前在降灾以前，我一定先透过先知警告你们，这一次也不例外。”

†[新译]如果主耶和华不先把计划向他的仆人众先知显示，他就不会作任何事。

†[Wlb]主耶和华若不以秘密、先示其仆诸先知、则无所行、

†[Xdv]至高的上主要采取行动的时候，一定先把计划告诉他的仆人──先知们。

†[Kjv]Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.

†[Nkjv]Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.

†[BBE]Certainly the Lord will do nothing without making clear his secret to his servants, the prophets.

†[GNT] The Sovereign Lord never does anything without revealing his plan to his servants, the prophets.

†[NIV]Surely the Sovereign Lord does nothing without revealing his plan to his servants the prophets.

本会注释　　主耶和华若。所有迫近以色列的灾祸都必来临，但是上帝要先通过先知警告百姓（见约13:19；14:29）。祂先藉着祂的先知警告他们，然后才降下惩罚，这表明了祂的仁慈。祂预言灾祸来临，是希望不至于到非得降下的地步。上帝在降灾给埃及之前，先通过摩西警告法老。在罗马人摧毁耶路撒冷之前，耶稣已经预言了这件事。我们现在也是如此。在基督复临毁灭世界之前，上帝已经通过祂圣经的预言向我们提供了充足的教训（见《善恶之争》594、598页；《证言》卷七14页）。
　　尽管以色列“嘱咐先知说，不要说预言”（摩2:12），上帝仍宣布祂将继续向祂所拣选的使者显示祂的旨意。
　　祂的仆人。他们不仅是“祂的仆人”，而且是祂可以推心置腹的密友。这是上帝给予先知的极大荣誉

摩3:8 狮子吼叫，谁不惧怕呢？主耶和华发命，谁能不说预言呢？ (串)摩1:2|徒4:20;5:20,29林前9:16

†[吕]狮子一吼叫，谁不惧怕呢？主永恒主一说话，谁不传神言呢？”

†[思]狮子咆哮了，谁不害怕？吾主上主发了言，谁能不传他的话？”

†[当代]有谁不惧怕狮子吼叫呢？主上帝已宣告了你们的灭亡，我又哪里有胆量不传祂的话呢？

†[新译]狮子吼叫，谁不害怕；主耶和华宣告，谁敢不代他传话？

†[Wlb]狮既吼、孰不惧乎、主耶和华既有命、孰不宣之、

†[Xdv]狮子咆哮的时候，谁不心惊胆战呢？至高的上主讲话的时候，谁能不传播他的话呢？

†[Kjv]The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?

†[Nkjv]A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken! Who can but prophesy?

†[BBE]The cry of the lion is sounding; who will not have fear? The Lord God has said the word; is it possible for the prophet to keep quiet?

†[GNT] When a lion roars, who can keep from being afraid? When the Sovereign Lord speaks, who can keep from proclaiming his message?

†[NIV]The lion has roared- who will not fear? The Sovereign Lord has spoken- who can but prophesy?

本会注释　　狮子的吼叫给人和牲口带来恐惧，上帝的话也会在先知身上产生这样的效果，使他不得不说（见耶1:7；20:9；徒4:19,20；林前9:16）。

摩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。

†[吕]要在亚述（传统：亚实突）宫堡上宣告，要在埃及地宫堡上传扬、说：“你们要聚集在撒玛利亚山上，看其中的大扰乱、和那里面欺压的事。”

†[思]“你们要在亚述和埃及的宫殿高处宣布说：你们应聚集在撒马黎雅山上，观看那的混乱和其中的残暴。

†[当代]要在亚实突和埃及的城楼上宣告说：“你们要聚集到撒马利亚的山上，看看当中混乱的情形，看看那些叫人发指的暴行。

†[新译]要向亚实突和埃及的堡垒宣告：“你们要在撒玛利亚山上聚集；观看城里极大的骚乱和城中的暴虐。”

†[Wlb]当于亚实突与埃及之宫室、宣告曰、其集于撒玛利亚山、观其中之扰乱、及其暴虐、

†[Xdv]你去向那些住在埃及和亚实突王宫里的人宣布：“你们要集合在撒马利亚周围的山上，看看城里所发生那混乱、欺压的事。”

†[Kjv]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.

†[Nkjv]"Proclaim in the palaces at Ashdod, And in the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say: "Assemble on the mountains of Samaria; See great tumults in her midst, And the oppressed within her.

†[BBE]Give out the news in the great houses of Assyria and in the land of Egypt, and say, Come together on the mountains of Samaria, and see what great outcries are there, and what cruel acts are done in it.

†[GNT] Announce to those who live in the palaces of Egypt and Ashdod: "Gather together in the hills around Samaria and see the great disorder and the crimes being committed there."

†[NIV]Proclaim to the fortresses of Ashdod and to the fortresses of Egypt: "Assemble yourselves on the mountains of Samaria; see the great unrest within her and the oppression among her people."

本会注释　　传扬。直译是“使听”或“宣布”。阿摩司召唤外邦人观察以色列的罪孽，特别提到了住在非利士的（以亚实突为代表）和埃及“宫殿”或“要塞”中的人（见何7:11；12:1）。以色列当时正向他们求助。七十士译本以“亚述人”代替“亚实突”。
　　你们要聚集。因为以色列的首都撒玛利亚，建造在山谷或低地中的一个山上，周围又群山环绕，先知用象征的语言呼吁观众聚集在周围，观察城里的“扰乱”和压迫。七十士译本以“许多奇事”来代替“大的扰乱”，暗示发生在撒玛利亚的事情令外邦人十分惊奇。
　　欺压的事。即“压迫”或“勒索”。

摩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。 (串)耶4:22

†[吕]永恒主发神谕说：“那些积聚强暴和抢夺在自己宫堡中的不晓得行端正的事。”

†[思]他们不知行正直的事──上主的断语──只知在宫殿内积累强暴和欺压。

†[当代]我的子民不走正路，却在家中积藏抢夺得来的财物。

†[新译]“这些人不知道怎样行正直的事，只管在他们的堡垒中积聚暴行和欺压。”这是耶和华的宣告。

†[Wlb]耶和华曰、彼以残暴劫夺、所得之物、藏于其第、不知行正、

†[Xdv]上主这样说：“那些人在他们的宫里堆满了抢劫和剥削来的财富；他们不懂得什么是公平交易。

†[Kjv]For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up violence and robbery in their palaces.

†[Nkjv]For they do not know to do right,' Says the LORD, "Who store up violence and robbery in their palaces."'

†[BBE]For they have no knowledge of how to do what is right, says the Lord, who are storing up violent acts and destruction in their great houses.

†[GNT] The Lord says, "These people fill their mansions with things taken by crime and violence. They don't even know how to be honest.

†[NIV]They do not know how to do right," declares the Lord , "who hoard plunder and loot in their fortresses."

本会注释　　撒玛利亚人，乃至于所有的以色列人，已经放弃了作为社会根基的公正（见赛59:9,12-15；耶4:22）。罪恶所导致的道德和属灵的盲目，让罪人非但不行善行，而且不知道何为善。参何4:6。

摩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。 (串)王下17:3,6;18:9-11

†[吕]因此主永恒主这么说：“必有敌人围攻你的地，使你的势力衰退，你的宫堡被掠劫。”

†[思]为此，吾主上主这样说：“敌人要围困此地，推翻你的堡垒，抢掠你的宫殿。

†[当代]所以，敌人必来围攻他们，攻破他们的城堡，抢掠他们的家园。”

†[新译]因此，主耶和华这样说：“敌人必围攻这地，使你们的势力倾覆，抢掠你们的堡垒。”

†[Wlb]故主耶和华曰、将有敌人环绕斯土、败尔力、掠尔第、

†[Xdv]因此，敌人将包围他们的城市，破坏他们的防线，洗劫他们的宫殿。”

†[Kjv]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.

†[Nkjv]Therefore thus says the Lord GOD: "An adversary shall be all around the land; He shall sap your strength from you, And your palaces shall be plundered."

†[BBE]For this reason, says the Lord, an attacker will come, shutting in the land on every side; and your strength will come down and your great houses will be made waste.

†[GNT] And so an enemy will surround their land, destroy their defenses, and plunder their mansions."

†[NIV]Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says: "An enemy will overrun the land; he will pull down your strongholds and plunder your fortresses."

本会注释　　可能指不止一次攻击以色列，围攻撒玛利亚的亚述国王撒缦以色（见王下17:3-6；18:9-12），也可能指他的继位者撒珥根。他宣称攻下了这座城，掳走了居民（见本书卷二62、85页）。

摩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。”

†[吕]永恒主这么说：“牧人怎样从狮子口中抢救出两条羊腿，或断片耳朵，那住撒玛利亚、的以色列人半躺在床角上、或床榻绣毯（与‘大马色’地名同字）上的、其蒙抢救也必怎样。”

†[思]上主这样说：牧人怎样从样由狮子口中抢救出两条羊腿，或一块羊耳，以色列子民，即在撒马利亚斜倚在安乐椅角上，或大马士革榻上的人，也要怎样被救出。

†[当代]主说：“牧人尽了能力想要从狮子口里把羊救出来，但最后却只能夺回两条腿和一只耳朵。同样的，住在撒马利亚的以色列人被救回的时候，也必只剩一个破床角和一点点残破的布料而已。”

†[新译]耶和华这样说：“牧人从狮子口中，只能夺回一双羊腿和一角耳朵；住在撒玛利亚的以色列人获救也是这样，他们只剩下一角床榻，半边褥子（“他们只剩下一角床塌，半边褥子”，这句原文意义不详，或译：“他们躺卧在华丽的床上，

†[Wlb]取和华曰、譬彼牧人、救二足一耳于狮口、居撒玛利亚之以色列人、坐于榻隅、据于华毯之床、其得救也、亦将若是、

†[Xdv]上主这样说：“就像牧羊人只能从狮子的嘴里抢回两条羊腿和一截耳尖，在撒马利亚过奢侈生活的以色列人也只有少数能从灾难中逃脱。”

†[Kjv]Thus saith the LORD; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.

†[Nkjv]Thus says the LORD: "As a shepherd takes from the mouth of a lion Two legs or a piece of an ear, So shall the children of Israel be taken out Who dwell in Samaria-- In the corner of a bed and on the edge of a couch!

†[BBE]These are the words of the Lord: As the keeper of sheep takes out of the mouth of the lion two legs or part of an ear; so will the children of Israel be made safe, who are resting in Samaria on seats of honour or on the silk cushions of a bed.

†[GNT] The Lord says, "As a shepherd recovers only two legs or an ear of a sheep that a lion has eaten, so only a few will survive of Samaria's people, who now recline on luxurious couches.

†[NIV]This is what the Lord says: "As a shepherd saves from the lion's mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites be saved, those who sit in Samaria on the edge of their beds and in Damascus on their couches. [1] "

本会注释　　牧人怎样。上帝的惩罚十分充分。除了少数余民，所有的以色列人都将卷入。牧羊人阿摩司（见@摩1:1；7:14@注释）用这个比喻是很自然的。
　　抢回。直译为“夺回”或“拯救”。

摩3:13 主耶和华万军之上帝说：当听这话，警戒雅各家。

†[吕]主永恒主，万军之上帝发神谕说：“要听哦，要警告雅各家说：

†[思]你们静听，并对雅各伯家作证──吾主上主万军的天主的断语──

†[当代]万军之主上帝说：“留心听我的话，去警告所有的以色列人。

†[新译]你们要听，要向雅各家作证。（这是主耶和华万军之　神的宣告。）

†[Wlb]主耶和华、万军之上帝曰、尔其听之、以戒雅各家、

†[Xdv]至高的上主──万军的统帅上帝说：“听啊！要警告雅各的后代：

†[Kjv]Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,

†[Nkjv]Hear and testify against the house of Jacob," Says the Lord GOD, the God of hosts,

†[BBE]Give ear now, and give witness against the family of Jacob, says the Lord God, the God of armies;

†[GNT] Listen now, and warn the descendants of Jacob," says the Sovereign Lord Almighty.

†[NIV]Hear this and testify against the house of Jacob," declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.

本会注释　　主耶和华万军之上帝。这是旧约圣经中唯一一次出现的全称（见@耶7:3@注释；又见本书卷一170-173页）。
　　当听这话。这些话可能是对已经应邀目睹以色列罪孽的外邦人说的（第9节），吩咐他们观望以色列的惩罚。

摩3:14 我讨以色列罪的日子，也要讨伯特利祭坛的罪；坛角必被砍下，坠落于地。

†[吕]我察罚以色列的悖逆那日子，我也必察罚伯特利的祭坛；其坛角必被砍下，坠落于地。

†[思]在我惩罚以色列罪恶之日，我必毁坏贝特耳的祭坛，祭坛的角必被打落在地上。

†[当代]我惩罚以色列的时候，也必拆毁伯特利假神的祭坛，我必打落祭坛的角。

†[新译]我追讨以色列的悖逆时，必要惩罚伯特利的祭坛；坛角必砍下，跌落在地。

†[Wlb]我罚以色列罪愆之日、亦必罚伯特利之坛、斫其坛角、俾坠于地、

†[Xdv]当我处罚以色列所犯的罪时，我要拆毁伯特利的祭坛；每一座祭坛的四角要被打破，倒在地上。

†[Kjv]That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the ground.

†[Nkjv]"That in the day I punish Israel for their transgressions, I will also visit destruction on the altars of Bethel; And the horns of the altar shall be cut off And fall to the ground.

†[BBE]For in the day when I give Israel punishment for his sins, I will send punishment on the altars of Beth-el, and the horns of the altar will be cut off and come down to the earth.

†[GNT] "On the day when I punish the people of Israel for their sins, I will destroy the altars of Bethel. The corners of every altar will be broken off and will fall to the ground.
