Thus hath the LordH136 GODH3069 shewedH7200 unto me; and, behold, he formedH3335 grasshoppersH1462 in the beginningH8462 of the shooting upH5927 of the latter growthH3954; and, lo, it was the latter growthH3954 afterH310 the king'sH4428 mowingsH1488. {grasshoppers: or, green worms}
And it came to pass, that when they had made an endH3615 of eatingH398 the grassH6212 of the landH776, then I saidH559, O LordH136 GODH3069, forgiveH5545, I beseech thee: by whom shall JacobH3290 ariseH6965? for he is smallH6996. {by…: or, who of (or, for,) Jacob shall stand?}
The LORDH3068 repentedH5162 for this: It shall not be, saithH559 the LORDH3068.
Thus hath the LordH136 GODH3069 shewedH7200 unto me: and, behold, the LordH136 GODH3069 calledH7121 to contendH7378 by fireH784, and it devouredH398 the greatH7227 deepH8415, and did eat upH398 a partH2506.
Then saidH559 I, O LordH136 GODH3069, ceaseH2308, I beseech thee: by whom shall JacobH3290 ariseH6965? for he is smallH6996. {by…: or, who of (or, for,) Jacob shall stand?}
The LORDH3068 repentedH5162 for this: This also shall not be, saithH559 the LordH136 GODH3069.
Thus he shewedH7200 me: and, behold, the LordH136 stoodH5324 upon a wallH2346 made by a plumblineH594, with a plumblineH594 in his handH3027.
And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, AmosH5986, what seestH7200 thou? And I saidH559, A plumblineH594. Then saidH559 the LordH136, Behold, I will setH7760 a plumblineH594 in the midstH7130 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478: I will not againH3254 pass byH5674 them any more:
And the high placesH1116 of IsaacH3446 shall be desolateH8074, and the sanctuariesH4720 of IsraelH3478 shall be laid wasteH2717; and I will riseH6965 against the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 with the swordH2719.
Then AmaziahH558 the priestH3548 of BethelH1008 sentH7971 to JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, AmosH5986 hath conspiredH7194 against thee in the midstH7130 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: the landH776 is not ableH3201 to bearH3557 all his wordsH1697.
For thus AmosH5986 saithH559, JeroboamH3379 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, and IsraelH3478 shall surelyH1540 be led away captiveH1540 out of their own landH127.
Also AmaziahH558 saidH559 unto AmosH5986, O thou seerH2374, goH3212, flee thee awayH1272 into the landH776 of JudahH3063, and there eatH398 breadH3899, and prophesyH5012 there:
But prophesyH5012 not againH3254 any more at BethelH1008: for it is the king'sH4428 chapelH4720, and it is the king'sH4467 courtH1004. {chapel: or, sanctuary} {king's court: Heb. house of the kingdom}
Then answeredH6030 AmosH5986, and saidH559 to AmaziahH558, I was no prophetH5030, neither was I a prophet'sH5030 sonH1121; but I was an herdmanH951, and a gathererH1103 of sycomore fruitH8256: {sycomore…: or, wild figs}
And the LORDH3068 tookH3947 me as I followedH310 the flockH6629, and the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto me, GoH3212, prophesyH5012 unto my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. {as…: Heb. from behind}
Now therefore hearH8085 thou the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068: Thou sayestH559, ProphesyH5012 not against IsraelH3478, and dropH5197 not thy word against the houseH1004 of IsaacH3446.
Therefore thus saithH559 the LORDH3068; Thy wifeH802 shall be an harlotH2181 in the cityH5892, and thy sonsH1121 and thy daughtersH1323 shall fallH5307 by the swordH2719, and thy landH127 shall be dividedH2505 by lineH2256; and thou shalt dieH4191 inH5921 a pollutedH2931 landH127: and IsraelH3478 shall surelyH1540 go into captivityH1540 forth of his landH127.
