1 Escuchen este mensaje, vacas de Basán que habitan en el Monte de Samaria, que oprimen a los pobres y a los necesitados, y dan órdenes a sus esposos, diciéndoles: “¡tráigannos bebidas!”
1 Listen to this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who tell their husbands, “Bring us drinks!”
2 El Señor Dios ha Jurado por su santidad: ¡Tengan cuidado! Porque vendrá el tiempo en el que las sacarán con anzuelos; cada uno de ustedes será como un pez enganchado a un anzuelo.
2 The Lord Yahweh has sworn by his holiness, “Behold, the days shall come on you that they will take you away with hooks, and the last of you with fish hooks.
3 Saldrán por las brechas de los muros de la ciudad, arrojadas en dirección al Monte Harmón.
3 You will go out at the breaks in the wall, everyone straight before her; and you will cast yourselves into Harmon,” says Yahweh.
4 ¿Por qué no van a Betel y pecan? ¿Irán a Guilgal para multiplicar sus pecados? Ofrezcan sacrificios en la mañana, y traigan diezmos después de tres dias.
4 “Go to Bethel, and sin; to Gilgal, and sin more. Bring your sacrifices every morning, your tithes every three days,
5 Quemen pan sin levadura como ofrenda de agradecimiento, y anuncien sus ofrendas voluntarias para que todos lo sepan. ¡Porque eso es lo que les gusta los Israelitas! Declara el Señor Dios.
5 offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving of that which is leavened, and proclaim free will offerings and brag about them; for this pleases you, you children of Israel,” says the Lord Yahweh.
6 Yo me aseguré de que no tuvieran nada que comer en sus ciudades, y que hubiera escasez de dinero en donde habitaban, pero aún así no volvieron a mi, dice el Señor.
6 “I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and lack of bread in every town; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
7 Yo detuve la Lluvia cuando faltaban tres meses antes de la cosecha. La lluvia caía en una ciudad y no en otra. Así mismo caía en un campo y no en otro.
7 “I also have withheld the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest; and I caused it to rain on one city, and caused it not to rain on another city. One field was rained on, and the field where it didn’t rain withered.
8 La gente andaba de ciudad en ciudad buscando agua, pero seguían sedientos. Y aún así no volvieron a mi, dice el Señor.
8 So two or three cities staggered to one city to drink water, and were not satisfied; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
9 Golpeé sus granjas y viñedos con pestes y moho; las langostas devoraron sus higueras y sus árboles de olivo. Pero aún así no volvieron a mi, dice el Señor.
9 “I struck you with blight and mildew many times in your gardens and your vineyards, and the swarming locusts have devoured your fig trees and your olive trees; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
10 Les envié una plaga como lo hice en Egipto. Maté a sus hombres más jóvenes en batalla; tomé sus caballos e hice que soportaran la pestilencia de los cuerpos muertos en sus campos. Pero aún así no volvieron a mi, dice el Señor.
10 “I sent plagues among you like I did Egypt. I have slain your young men with the sword, and have carried away your horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
11 A algunos de ustedes los destruí como destruí a Sodoma y Gomorra. Ustedes fueron como un tizón arrebatado del fuego. Pero aún así no volvieron a mi, dice el Señor.
11 “I have overthrown some of you, as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a burning stick plucked out of the fire; yet you haven’t returned to me,” says Yahweh.
12 Por ello, esto es lo que haré contigo, Israel. ¡Prepárate para el encuentro con tu Dios!
12 “Therefore I will do this to you, Israel; because I will do this to you, prepare to meet your God, Israel.
13 Él fue quien hizo las montañas, quien creó el viento, quien reveló sus pensamientos a la humanidad, quien convirtió el sol en oscuridad, quien camina en los lugares altos de la tierra. ¡El Señor, Dios de poder es su nombre!
13 For, behold, he who forms the mountains, creates the wind, declares to man what is his thought, who makes the morning darkness, and treads on the high places of the earth: Yahweh, the God of Armies, is his name.”

What the Fathers said
Passages from the Church Fathers that expound or quote this chapter, verbatim from the public-domain Schaff edition (19th-century English translations).
How these were chosen
“Commentary” is the opening of a homily or exposition on this chapter (John Chrysostom’s homilies, Augustine’s tractates, sermons and expositions of the Psalms). “Quotes” are sentences where the edition’s own footnotes identify a quotation of a verse here, kept only when the wording matches the verse. Only works whose authorship is not in doubt are used. Psalms follow the Hebrew/English numbering (Augustine numbers them as the Septuagint does: his Psalm 50 is Psalm 51 here).
… ye be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above." Amos also prophesies thus concerning such things: "Prepare thee, that thou mayst invoke thy God, O Israel; for lo, I am binding the thunder, and creating the spirit, and announcing to men their Christ." And in another place he says, "In that day will I raise up the tabernacle …

… made; as is shewn by the passage which says that He maketh His Angels Spirits, and that the earth is founded upon its steadfastness (though once for all these things were fixed and made) and that the thunder is made firm and the wind created. Of all these things the Word was given once, but the Action is continuous even …
