Amos 7

1 ♥ 📝 T hus the Lord^H136 Jehovah^H3069 showed^H7200 me: and, behold, he formed^H3335 locusts^H1462 in the beginning^H8462 of the shooting up^H5927 of the latter growth;^H3954 and, lo, it was the latter growth^H3954 after^H310 the king's^H4428 mowings.^H1488

2 ♥ 📝 And it came to pass that, when they made an end^H3615 of eating^H398 the grass^H6212 of the land,^H776 then I said,^H559 O Lord^H136 Jehovah,^H136 forgive,^H5545 I beseech thee: how shall Jacob^H3290 stand?^H6965 for he is small.^H6996

3 ♥ 📝 Jehovah^H3068 repented^H5162 concerning this: It shall not be, saith^H559 Jehovah.^H3068

4 ♥ 📝 Thus the Lord^H136 Jehovah^H3069 showed^H7200 me: and, behold, the Lord^H136 Jehovah^H3069 called^H7121 to contend^H7378 by fire;^H784 and it devoured^H398 the great^H7227 deep,^H8415 and would have eaten up^H398 the land.^H2506

5 ♥ 📝 Then said^H559 I, O Lord^H136 Jehovah,^H3069 cease,^H2308 I beseech thee: how shall Jacob^H3290 stand?^H6965 for he is small.^H6996

6 ♥ 📝 Jehovah^H3068 repented^H5162 concerning this: this also shall not be, saith^H559 the Lord^H136 Jehovah.^H3069

7 ♥ 📝 Thus he showed^H7200 me: and, behold, the Lord^H136 stood^H5324 beside a wall^H2346 made by a plumb-line,^H594 with a plumb-line^H594 in his hand.^H3027

8 ♥ 📝 And Jehovah^H3068 said^H559 unto me, Amos,^H5986 what seest^H7200 thou? And I said,^H559 A plumb-line.^H594 Then said^H559 the Lord,^H136 Behold, I will set^H7760 a plumb-line^H594 in the midst^H7130 of my people^H5971 Israel;^H3478 I will not again^H3254 pass by^H5674 them any more;

9 ♥ 📝 and the high places^H1116 of Isaac^H3446 shall be desolate,^H8074 and the sanctuaries^H4720 of Israel^H3478 shall be laid waste;^H2717 and I will rise^H6965 against the house^H1004 of Jeroboam^H3379 with the sword.^H2719

10 ♥ 📝 Then Amaziah^H558 the priest^H3548 of Beth-el^H1008 sent^H7971 to Jeroboam^H3379 king^H4428 of Israel,^H3478 saying,^H559 Amos^H5986 hath conspired^H7194 against thee in the midst^H7130 of the house^H1004 of Israel:^H3478 the land^H776 is not able^H3201 to bear^H3557 all his words.^H1697

11 ♥ 📝 For thus Amos^H5986 saith,^H559 Jeroboam^H3379 shall die^H4191 by the sword,^H2719 and Israel^H3478 shall surely^H1540 be led away captive^H1540 out of his land.^H127

12 ♥ 📝 Also Amaziah^H558 said^H559 unto Amos,^H5986 O thou seer,^H2374 go,^H3212 flee thou away^H1272 into the land^H776 of Judah,^H3063 and there eat^H398 bread,^H3899 and prophesy^H5012 there:

13 ♥ 📝 but prophesy^H5012 not again^H3254 any more at Beth-el;^H1008 for it is the king's^H4428 sanctuary,^H4720 and it is a royal^H4467 house.^H1004

14 ♥ 📝 Then answered^H6030 Amos,^H5986 and said^H559 to Amaziah,^H558 I was no prophet,^H5030 neither was I a prophet's^H5030 son;^H1121 but I was a herdsman,^H951 and a dresser^H1103 of sycomore-trees:^H8256

15 ♥ 📝 and Jehovah^H3068 took^H3947 me from following^H310 the flock,^H6629 and Jehovah^H3068 said^H559 unto me, Go,^H3212 prophesy^H5012 unto my people^H5971 Israel.^H3478

16 ♥ 📝 Now therefore hear^H8085 thou the word^H1697 of Jehovah:^H3068 Thou sayest,^H559 Prophesy^H5012 not against Israel,^H3478 and drop^H5197 not [thy word] against the house^H1004 of Isaac;^H3446

17 ♥ 📝 therefore thus saith^H559 Jehovah:^H3068 Thy wife^H802 shall be a harlot^H2181 in the city,^H5892 and thy sons^H1121 and thy daughters^H1323 shall fall^H5307 by the sword,^H2719 and thy land^H127 shall be divided^H2505 by line;^H2256 and thou thyself shalt die^H4191 in^H5921 a land^H127 that is unclean,^H2931 and Israel^H3478 shall surely^H1540 be led away captive^H1540 out of his land.^H127
