انجیل مقدس

عامُوس 6:9

span data-lang="urd" data-trans="ulb" data-ref="amo.6.1" class="versetxt"> 1 2 تم کلنہ تک جا کے دیکھو اور وہاں سے حمایت اعظم تک سیر کرو اور پھر فلسیتوں کے جات کو جاؤ۔ کیا وہ ان مُملکتوں سے بہتر ہیں؟ کیا اُن کی حدود سے زیادہ وسیع ہیں؟۔ 3 تم جو بُرے دن کا خیال مُلتوی کر کے ظُلم کی کُرسی نزدیک کرتے ہو۔ 4 5 اور رباب کی آواز کے ساتھ گاتے اور اپنے لے داود کی طرح مُوسیقی کے ساز ایجاد کرتے ہو۔ 6 7 اس لئے وہ پہلے اسیروں کے ساتھ اسیر ہو کر جائیں گے اور اُن کی عیش و نشاط کا خاتمہ ہو جائے گا۔ 8 خُداوند خُُدا نے اپنی ذات کی قسم کھائی ہے خُداوند ربُ الافواج یُوں فرماتا ہے کہ میں یعقوب کی حشمت سے نفرت رکھتا ہوں اور اُس کے قصروں سے مُجھے عداوت ہے ۔ اس لئے میں شہر کو اُس کی ساری معموری سمیت حوالہ کُروں گا۔ 9 بلکہ یُوں ہو گا اگر کسی گھر میں دس آدمی باقی ہوں گے تو وہ بھی مر جائیں گے۔

Gill's Notes on the Bible

And it shall come to pass,.... When the city is delivered up and taken:

if there remain; who are not carried captive, or destroyed by the sword:

ten men in one house; that is, many, a certain number for an uncertain:

that they shall die; either with famine, or by the pestilence, though they have escaped the other calamities; so general shall the destruction be, by one means or another.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

If there shall remain ten men - He probably still denounces the punishment of the rich inhabitants of the palaces, since in these only, of old, would there be found “ten men.” They died, it seems, at once, and so probably through the plague, the common companion. of the siege. The prophet had before compared them to Sodom. It may be, that, in this mention of “ten men,” he tacitly refers to the history of that destruction. Then God promised, not to destroy the city, if there were ten righteous in it Genesis 18:32. Here were “ten left,” not in one city, but in one house. Had God forgotten His loving-kindness? No! but, in Samaria, not even ten who “remained over,” and so had survived after the chastisement had begun, turned to God. All then were to be taken or destroyed. The miseries of its three years’ siege by Shalmanezer may be filled up from those of its earlier siege by Benhadad 2 Kings 6:24-29, or from those of Jerusalem. The sufferings of a siege are in proportion to the obstinacy of the defense; and Samaria resisted for twice the time in which Jerusalem was reduced by famine at its first captivity.

Clarke's Notes on the Bible

Verse Amos 6:9. Ten men - they shall die. — ALL shall be cut off by the sword, or by captivity, or by famine.
