（单词翻译）

7This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me: He was preparing swarms1 of locusts2 after the king's share had been harvested and just as the second crop was coming up.
2When they had stripped the land clean, I cried out, "Sovereign Lord , forgive! How can Jacob survive? He is so small!"
3So the Lord relented. "This will not happen," the Lord said.
4This is what the Sovereign Lord showed me: The Sovereign Lord was calling for judgment3 by fire; it dried up the great deep and devoured4 the land.
5Then I cried out, "Sovereign Lord , I beg you, stop! How can Jacob survive? He is so small!"
6So the Lord relented. "This will not happen either," the Sovereign Lord said.
7This is what he showed me: The Lord was standing5 by a wall that had been built true to plumb6, with a plumb line in his hand.
8And the Lord asked me, "What do you see, Amos?" "A plumb line," I replied. Then the Lord said, "Look, I am setting a plumb line among my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.
9"The high places of Isaac will be destroyed and the sanctuaries7 of Israel will be ruined; with my sword I will rise against the house of Jeroboam."
10Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent a message to Jeroboam king of Israel: "Amos is raising a conspiracy8 against you in the very heart of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words.
11For this is what Amos is saying: " 'Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile, away from their native land.' "
12Then Amaziah said to Amos, "Get out, you seer! Go back to the land of Judah. Earn your bread there and do your prophesying10 there.
13Don't prophesy9 anymore at Bethel, because this is the king's sanctuary11 and the temple of the kingdom."
14Amos answered Amaziah, "I was neither a prophet nor a prophet's son, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees.
15But the Lord took me from tending the flock and said to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.'
16Now then, hear the word of the Lord . You say, " 'Do not prophesy against Israel, and stop preaching against the house of Isaac.'
17"Therefore this is what the Lord says: " 'Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword. Your land will be measured and divided up, and you yourself will die in a pagan country. And Israel will certainly go into exile, away from their native land.' "
