2 Mhashu dzacho padzakapedza kudya zvakamera munyika, ndakati: “Changamire Ishe Jehovha, varegerereiwo!+ Jakobho angapona* here? Haana simba!”+
3 Saka Jehovha akabva achinja pfungwa dzake.*+ “Hazvichaitiki,” akadaro Jehovha.
4 Izvi ndizvo zvandakaratidzwa naChangamire Ishe Jehovha: Changamire Ishe Jehovha akataura kuti pave nechirango chemoto. Wakaomesa mvura yakadzika, ukaparadza chikamu chenyika yacho.
5 Ndakabva ndati: “Ndapota, Changamire Ishe Jehovha, regai kudaro.+ Jakobho angapona* here? Haana simba!”+
6 Saka Jehovha akabva achinja pfungwa dzake.*+ “Izvozvowo hazvichaitiki,” akadaro Jehovha.
7 Izvi ndizvo zvaakandiratidza: Jehovha akanga akamira parusvingo rwakavakwa pachishandiswa tambo yekururamisa mudhuri, uye ainge akabata tambo yekururamisa mudhuri.
8 Jehovha akabva ati kwandiri: “Amosi, uri kuonei?” Ini ndikati: “Tambo yekururamisa mudhuri.” Jehovha achibva ati: “Ndiri kuisa tambo yekururamisa pavanhu vangu vaIsraeri. Handichavaregereri.+
9 Nzvimbo dzakakwirira dzaIsaka+ dzichava matongo, uye nzvimbo tsvene dzaIsraeri dzichaparadzwa;+ uye ndichauya kuzorwisa imba yaJerobhoamu nebakatwa.”+
10 Amaziya mupristi wekuBheteri+ akatumira shoko kuna Mambo Jerobhoamu+ weIsraeri achiti: “Amosi akupandukirai pakati pevanhu veimba yaIsraeri.+ Nyika yaneta nemashoko ake ese.+
11 Nekuti Amosi ari kuti, ‘Jerobhoamu achaurayiwa nebakatwa, uye Israeri achatotapwa obviswa munyika yake.’”+
12 Amaziya akabva ati kuna Amosi: “Iwe muoni, enda, tizira kunyika yeJudha utsvage zvekudya zvako* ikoko, woprofitira ikoko.+
13 Hauchafaniri kuprofita muBheteri,+ nekuti inzvimbo tsvene yamambo+ uye iimba yeumambo.”
14 Amosi akabva apindura Amaziya achiti: “Ndakanga ndisiri muprofita, uye ndakanga ndisiri mwanakomana wemuprofita; asi ndaiva mufudzi,+ uye ndaishanda muminda yemionde.*
15 Asi Jehovha akandibvisa pabasa rekufudza makwai, uye Jehovha akati kwandiri, ‘Enda uprofite kuvanhu vangu vaIsraeri.’+
16 Zvino chinzwa shoko raJehovha: ‘Uri kuti, “Usaprofita zvakaipa nezvaIsraeri,+ uye usazivisa mashoko asina kunaka+ pamusoro peimba yaIsaka.”
17 Saka zvanzi naJehovha: “Mudzimai wako achava pfambi muguta. Vanakomana vako nevanasikana vako vachaurayiwa nebakatwa. Nyika yako ichagovewa ichiita zvekuyerwa netambo, uye iwe uchafira munyika isina kuchena; uye Israeri achatotapwa obviswa munyika yake.”’”+
