¹ O Senhor Deus assim me fez ver: e eis aqui um cesto de frutos do verão.

² E disse: Que vês, Amós? Eu respondi: um cesto de frutos do verão. Então o Senhor me disse: Chegou o fim sobre o meu povo Israel; nunca mais passarei por ele.

³ Mas os cânticos do templo serão gritos de dor naquele dia, diz o Senhor Deus; muitos serão os cadáveres; em todos os lugares serão lançados fora em silêncio.

⁴ Ouvi isto, vós que pisais os necessitados, e destruís os miseráveis da terra,

⁵ dizendo: Quando passará a lua nova, para vendermos o grão? e o sábado, para expormos o trigo, diminuindo a medida, e aumentando o preço, e procedendo dolosamente com balanças enganadoras,

⁶ para comprarmos os pobres por dinheiro, e os necessitados por um par de sapatos, e para vendermos o refugo do trigo?

⁷ Jurou o Senhor pela glória de Jacó: Certamente nunca me esquecerei de nenhuma das suas obras.

⁸ Por causa disso não estremecerá a terra? e não chorará todo aquele que nela habita? Certamente se levantará ela toda como o Nilo, e será agitada, e diminuirá como o Nilo do Egito.

⁹ E sucederá, naquele dia, diz o Senhor Deus, que farei que o sol se ponha ao meio dia, e em pleno dia cobrirei a terra de trevas.

¹⁰ E tornarei as vossas festas em luto, e todos os vossos cânticos em lamentações; porei saco sobre todos os lombos, e calva sobre toda cabeça; e farei que isso seja como o luto por um filho único, e o seu fim como dia de amarguras.

¹¹ Eis que vêm os dias, diz o Senhor Deus, em que enviarei fome sobre a terra; não fome de pão, nem sede de água, mas de ouvir as palavras do Senhor.

¹² Andarão errantes de mar a mar, e do norte até o oriente; correrão por toda parte, buscando a palavra do Senhor, e não a acharão.

¹³ Naquele dia as virgens formosas e os mancebos desmaiarão de sede.

¹⁴ Os que juram pelo pecado de Samária, dizendo: Pela vida do teu deus, ó Dã; e: Pelo caminho de Berseba; esses mesmos cairão, e não se levantarão mais.

¹ Yahweh spoke to Moses, saying,

² "Take Aaron and his sons with him, and the garments, and the anointing oil, and the bull of the sin offering, and the two rams, and the basket of unleavened bread;

³ and assemble all the congregation at the door of the Tent of Meeting."

⁴ Moses did as Yahweh commanded him; and the congregation was assembled at the door of the Tent of Meeting.

⁵ Moses said to the congregation, "This is the thing which Yahweh has commanded to be done."

⁶ Moses brought Aaron and his sons, and washed them with water.

⁷ He put the coat on him, tied the sash on him, clothed him with the robe, put the ephod on him, and he tied the skillfully woven band of the ephod on him, and fastened it to him with it.

⁸ He placed the breastplate on him; and in the breastplate he put the Urim and the Thummim.

⁹ He set the turban on his head; and on the turban, in front, he set the golden plate, the holy crown; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

¹⁰ Moses took the anointing oil, and anointed the tabernacle and all that was in it, and sanctified them.

¹¹ He sprinkled it on the altar seven times, and anointed the altar and all its vessels, and the basin and its base, to sanctify them.

¹² He poured some of the anointing oil on Aaron's head, and anointed him, to sanctify him.

¹³ Moses brought Aaron's sons, and clothed them with coats, and tied sashes on them, and put headbands on them; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

¹⁴ He brought the bull of the sin offering, and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the bull of the sin offering.

¹⁵ He killed it; and Moses took the blood, and put it around on the horns of the altar with his finger, and purified the altar, and poured out the blood at the base of the altar, and sanctified it, to make atonement for it.

¹⁶ He took all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat; and Moses burned it on the altar.

¹⁷ But the bull, and its skin, and its flesh, and its dung, he burned with fire outside the camp; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

¹⁸ He presented the ram of the burnt offering: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

¹⁹ He killed it; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

²⁰ He cut the ram into its pieces; and Moses burned the head, and the pieces, and the fat.

²¹ He washed the innards and the legs with water; and Moses burned the whole ram on the altar. It was a burnt offering for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh; as Yahweh commanded Moses.

²² He presented the other ram, the ram of consecration: and Aaron and his sons laid their hands on the head of the ram.

²³ He killed it; and Moses took some of its blood, and put it on the tip of Aaron's right ear, and on the thumb of his right hand, and on the great toe of his right foot.

²⁴ He brought Aaron's sons; and Moses put some of the blood on the tip of their right ear, and on the thumb of their right hand, and on the great toe of their right foot; and Moses sprinkled the blood around on the altar.

²⁵ He took the fat, and the fat tail, and all the fat that was on the innards, and the cover of the liver, and the two kidneys, and their fat, and the right thigh;

²⁶ and out of the basket of unleavened bread, that was before Yahweh, he took one unleavened cake, and one cake of oiled bread, and one wafer, and placed them on the fat, and on the right thigh.

²⁷ He put all these in Aaron's hands and in his sons' hands, and waved them for a wave offering before Yahweh.

²⁸ Moses took them from their hands, and burned them on the altar on the burnt offering. They were a consecration for a pleasant aroma. It was an offering made by fire to Yahweh.

²⁹ Moses took the breast, and waved it for a wave offering before Yahweh. It was Moses' portion of the ram of consecration, as Yahweh commanded Moses.

³⁰ Moses took some of the anointing oil, and some of the blood which was on the altar, and sprinkled it on Aaron, on his garments, and on his sons, and on his sons' garments with him, and sanctified Aaron, his garments, and his sons, and his sons' garments with him.

³¹ Moses said to Aaron and to his sons, "Boil the flesh at the door of the Tent of Meeting, and there eat it and the bread that is in the basket of consecration, as I commanded, saying, 'Aaron and his sons shall eat it.'

³² What remains of the flesh and of the bread you shall burn with fire.

³³ You shall not go out from the door of the Tent of Meeting seven days, until the days of your consecration are fulfilled: for he shall consecrate you seven days.

³⁴ What has been done this day, so Yahweh has commanded to do, to make atonement for you.

³⁵ You shall stay at the door of the Tent of Meeting day and night seven days, and keep Yahweh's command, that you don't die: for so I am commanded."

³⁶ Aaron and his sons did all the things which Yahweh commanded by Moses.
