1 Dinggin ninyo ang salitang ito, Oh mga baka ng Basan, na nangasa bundok ng Samaria, na nagsisipighati sa mga dukha, na nagsisigipit sa mga mapagkailangan, na nangagsasabi sa kanilang mga panginoon, Dalhin ninyo rito, at ating inumin.

2 Ang Panginoong Dios ay sumumpa sa pamamagitan ng kaniyang kabanalan, na, narito, ang mga kaarawan ay darating sa inyo, na kanilang huhulihin kayo ng mga taga ng bingwit, at ang nalabi sa inyo ay ng mga pamingwit.

3 At kayo'y magsisilabas sa mga sira, na bawa't isa'y tuloytuloy; at kayo'y mangagpapakatapon sa Harmon, sabi ng Panginoon.

4 Magsiparoon kayo sa Beth-el, at magsisalangsang kayo; sa Gilgal, at paramihin ninyo ang pagsalangsang; at inyong dalhin ang inyong mga hain tuwing umaga, at ang inyong mga ikasangpung bahagi tuwing tatlong araw;

5 At kayo'y mangaghandog ng hain ng pasasalamat na may lebadura, at kayo'y mangaghayag ng kusang mga handog at inyong itanyag; sapagka't ito'y nakalulugod sa inyo, Oh ninyong mga anak ni Israel, sabi ng Panginoong Dios.

6 At binigyan ko naman kayo ng kalinisan ng mga ngipin sa lahat ninyong mga bayan, at kakulangan ng tinapay sa lahat ninyong mga dako; gayon ma'y hindi kayo nanganumbalik sa akin, sabi ng Panginoon.

7 At akin namang pinigil ang ulan sa inyo, nang tatlong buwan na lamang at pagaani na; at aking pinaulan sa isang bayan, at hindi ko pinaulan sa kabilang bayan: isang bahagi ay inulanan, at ang bahagi na hindi inulanan ay natuyo.

8 Sa gayo'y dalawa o tatlong bayan ay nagsigala sa isang bayan upang magsiinom ng tubig, at hindi nangapawi ang uhaw: gayon ma'y hindi kayo nanganumbalik sa akin, sabi ng Panginoon.

9 Aking sinalot kayo ng pagkalanta at ng amag: ang karamihan ng inyong mga halaman, at ng inyong mga ubasan, at ng inyong mga igusan, at ng inyong mga olibohan ay nilipol ng tipaklong: gayon ma'y hindi kayo nanganumbalik sa akin, sabi ng Panginoon.

10 Aking pinarating sa gitna ninyo ang salot na gaya ng sa Egipto: ang inyong mga binata ay pinatay ko ng tabak, at dinala ko ang inyong mga kabayo; at aking pinaalingasaw ang baho ng inyong kampamento hanggang sa inyong mga butas ng ilong; gayon ma'y hindi kayo nanganumbalik sa akin, sabi ng Panginoon.

11 Aking ibinuwal ang iba sa inyo, gaya nang ibuwal ng Dios ang Sodoma at Gomorra, at kayo'y naging gaya ng dupong na naagaw sa apoy: gayon ma'y hindi kayo nanganumbalik sa akin, sabi ng Panginoon.

12 Kaya't ganito ang gagawin ko sa iyo, Oh Israel; at yamang aking gagawin ito sa iyo, humanda kang salubungin mo ang iyong Dios, Oh Israel.

13 Sapagka't, narito, siyang nagaanyo ng mga bundok, at lumilikha ng hangin, at nagpapahayag sa tao kung ano ang kaniyang pagiisip; na nagpapadilim ng umaga, at yumayapak sa mga mataas na dako ng lupa, ang Panginoon, ang Dios ng mga hukbo ay siya niyang pangalan.

Waters

  

'Waters' particularly signify the spiritual parts of a person, or the intellectual aspects of faith, and also their opposites.

'The waters above the firmament,' as in Genesis 1:7, signify the knowledges in the internal self, and 'the waters beneath the firmament' signify the knowledges of the external self.

'Waters,' as in Ezekiel 47:9, refer to the New Jerusalem, and they signify spiritual things from a celestial origin.

'Many waters,' as in Revelation 17:1, signify truths of the Word adulterated. 'Waters' or 'rivers' signify spiritual, rational, or scientific things pertaining to truth.

'Waters … that go softly,' as in Isaiah 8:6-7, signify spiritual things, and 'waters … strong and many,' signify falsities.

'Waters,' as in Psalms 104:3, signify divine truths.

'Waters' signify truths in the natural self, and in the opposite sense, falsities.

'The waters were dried up from off the earth,' as in Genesis 8:7, signifies the apparent dissipation of falsities.

Genesis第8章

1 God remembered Noah, all the animals, and all the livestock that were with him in the ship; and God made a wind to pass over the earth. The waters subsided.

2 The deep's fountains and the sky's windows were also stopped, and the rain from the sky was restrained.

3 The waters receded from the earth continually. After the end of one hundred fifty days the waters decreased.

4 The ship rested in the seventh month, on the seventeenth day of the month, on Ararat's mountains.

5 The waters receded continually until the tenth month. In the tenth month, on the first day of the month, the tops of the mountains were seen.

6 It happened at the end of forty days, that Noah opened the window of the ship which he had made,

7 and he sent forth a raven. It went back and forth, until the waters were dried up from the earth.

8 He sent forth a dove from him, to see if the waters were abated from the surface of the ground,

9 but the dove found no place to rest her foot, and she returned to him into the ship; for the waters were on the surface of the whole earth. He put forth his hand, and took her, and brought her to him into the ship.

10 He stayed yet another seven days; and again he sent forth the dove out of the ship.

11 The dove came back to him at evening, and, behold, in her mouth was an olive leaf plucked off. So Noah knew that the waters were abated from the earth.

12 He stayed yet another seven days, and sent forth the dove; and she didn't return to him any more.

13 It happened in the six hundred first year, in the first month, the first day of the month, the waters were dried up from the earth. Noah removed the covering of the ship, and looked. He saw that the surface of the ground was dried.

14 In the second month, on the twenty-seventh day of the month, the earth was dry.

15 God spoke to Noah, saying,

16 "Go out of the ship, you, and your wife, and your sons, and your sons' wives with you.

17 Bring forth with you every living thing that is with you of all flesh, including birds, livestock, and every creeping thing that creeps on the earth, that they may breed abundantly in the earth, and be fruitful, and multiply on the earth."

18 Noah went forth, with his sons, his wife, and his sons' wives with him.

19 Every animal, every creeping thing, and every bird, whatever moves on the earth, after their families, went out of the ship.

20 Noah built an altar to Yahweh, and took of every clean animal, and of every clean bird, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.

21 Yahweh smelled the pleasant aroma. Yahweh said in his heart, "I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake, because the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I ever again strike everything living, as I have done.

22 While the earth remains, seed time and harvest, and cold and heat, and summer and winter, and day and night shall not cease."
