Amo 01:01 ¶ The words <01697> of Amos <05986>, who was among the
herdmen <05349> of Tekoa <08620>, which he saw <02372> (8804)
concerning Israel <03478> in the days <03117> of Uzziah <05818>
king <04428> of Judah <03063>, and in the days <03117> of
Jeroboam <03379> the son <01121> of Joash <03101> king <04428>
of Israel <03478>, two years <08141> before <06440> the
earthquake <07494>.
Amo 01:02 And he said <0559> (8799), The LORD <03068> will roar
<07580> (8799) from Zion <06726>, and utter <05414> (8799) his
voice <06963> from Jerusalem <03389>; and the habitations
<04999> of the shepherds <07462> (8802) shall mourn <056> (8804),
and the top <07218> of Carmel <03760> shall wither <03001>
(8804).
Amo 01:03 ¶ Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Damascus <01834>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because they have threshed <01758> (8800) Gilead
<01568> with threshing instruments <02742> of iron <01270>:
Amo 01:04 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> into the
house <01004> of Hazael <02371>, which shall devour <0398>
(8804) the palaces <0759> of Benhadad <01130>.
Amo 01:05 I will break <07665> (8804) also the bar <01280> of
Damascus <01834>, and cut off <03772> (8689) the inhabitant
<03427> (8802) from the plain <01237> of Aven <0206>, and him
that holdeth <08551> (8802) the sceptre <07626> from the house
<01004> of Eden <05731> (8677) <01040>: and the people <05971>
of Syria <0758> shall go into captivity <01540> (8804) unto Kir
<07024>, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 01:06 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Gaza <05804>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because they carried away captive <01540> (8687) the
whole <08003> captivity <01546>, to deliver them up <05462>
(8687) to Edom <0123>:
Amo 01:07 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> on the
wall <02346> of Gaza <05804>, which shall devour <0398> (8804)
the palaces <0759> thereof:
Amo 01:08 And I will cut off <03772> (8689) the inhabitant
<03427> (8802) from Ashdod <0795>, and him that holdeth <08551>
(8802) the sceptre <07626> from Ashkelon <0831>, and I will turn
<07725> (8689) mine hand <03027> against Ekron <06138>: and the
remnant <07611> of the Philistines <06430> shall perish <06>
(8804), saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>.
Amo 01:09 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Tyrus <06865>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because they delivered up <05462> (8687) the whole
<08003> captivity <01546> to Edom <0123>, and remembered <02142>
(8804) not the brotherly <0251> covenant <01285>:
Amo 01:10 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> on the
wall <02346> of Tyrus <06865>, which shall devour <0398> (8804)
the palaces <0759> thereof.
Amo 01:11 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Edom <0123>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because he did pursue <07291> (8800) his brother <0251>
with the sword <02719>, and did cast off <07843> (8765) all pity
<07356>, and his anger <0639> did tear <02963> (8799)
perpetually <05703>, and he kept <08104> (8804) his wrath
<05678> for ever <05331>:
Amo 01:12 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> upon
Teman <08487>, which shall devour <0398> (8804) the palaces
<0759> of Bozrah <01224>.
Amo 01:13 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of the children <01121> of Ammon
<05983>, and for four <0702>, I will not turn away <07725>
(8686) the punishment thereof; because they have ripped up
<01234> (8800) the women with child <02030> of Gilead <01568>,
that they might enlarge <07337> (8687) their border <01366>:
Amo 01:14 But I will kindle <03341> (8689) a fire <0784> in the
wall <02346> of Rabbah <07237>, and it shall devour <0398>
(8804) the palaces <0759> thereof, with shouting <08643> in the
day <03117> of battle <04421>, with a tempest <05591> in the day
<03117> of the whirlwind <05492>:
Amo 01:15 And their king <04428> shall go <01980> (8804) into
captivity <01473>, he and his princes <08269> together <03162>,
saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 02:01 ¶ Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Moab <04124>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because he burned <08313> (8800) the bones <06106> of
the king <04428> of Edom <0123> into lime <07875>:
Amo 02:02 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> upon
Moab <04124>, and it shall devour <0398> (8804) the palaces
<0759> of Kerioth <07152>: and Moab <04124> shall die <04191>
(8804) with tumult <07588>, with shouting <08643>, and with the
sound <06963> of the trumpet <07782>:
Amo 02:03 And I will cut off <03772> (8689) the judge <08199>
(8802) from the midst <07130> thereof, and will slay <02026>
(8799) all the princes <08269> thereof with him, saith <0559>
(8804) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 02:04 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Judah <03063>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because they have despised <03988> (8800) the law
<08451> of the LORD <03068>, and have not kept <08104> (8804)
his commandments <02706>, and their lies <03577> caused them to
err <08582> (8686), after <0310> the which their fathers <01>
have walked <01980> (8804):
Amo 02:05 But I will send <07971> (8765) a fire <0784> upon
Judah <03063>, and it shall devour <0398> (8804) the palaces
<0759> of Jerusalem <03389>.
Amo 02:06 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; For three
<07969> transgressions <06588> of Israel <03478>, and for four
<0702>, I will not turn away <07725> (8686) the punishment
thereof; because they sold <04376> (8800) the righteous <06662>
for silver <03701>, and the poor <034> for a pair of shoes
<05275>;
Amo 02:07 That pant <07602> (8802) after the dust <06083> of
the earth <0776> on the head <07218> of the poor <01800>, and
turn aside <05186> (8686) the way <01870> of the meek <06035>:
and a man <0376> and his father <01> will go <03212> (8799) in
unto the same maid <05291>, to profane <02490> (8763) my holy
<06944> name <08034>:
Amo 02:08 And they lay themselves down <05186> (8686) upon
clothes <0899> laid to pledge <02254> (8803) by <0681> every
altar <04196>, and they drink <08354> (8799) the wine <03196> of
the condemned <06064> (8803) in the house <01004> of their god
<0430>.
Amo 02:09 ¶ Yet destroyed <08045> (8689) I the Amorite <0567>
before <06440> them, whose height <01363> was like the height
<01363> of the cedars <0730>, and he was strong <02634> as the
oaks <0437>; yet I destroyed <08045> (8686) his fruit <06529>
from above <04605>, and his roots <08328> from beneath.
Amo 02:10 Also I brought you up <05927> (8689) from the land
<0776> of Egypt <04714>, and led <03212> (8686) you forty <0705>
years <08141> through the wilderness <04057>, to possess <03423>
(8800) the land <0776> of the Amorite <0567>.
Amo 02:11 And I raised up <06965> (8686) of your sons <01121>
for prophets <05030>, and of your young men <0970> for Nazarites
<05139>. Is it not even thus, O ye children <01121> of Israel
<03478>? saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 02:12 But ye gave the Nazarites <05139> wine <03196> to
drink <08248> (8686); and commanded <06680> (8765) the prophets
<05030>, saying <0559> (8800), Prophesy <05012> (8735) not.
Amo 02:13 Behold, I am pressed <05781> (8688) under you, as a
cart <05699> is pressed <05781> (8686) that is full <04392> of
sheaves <05995>.
Amo 02:14 Therefore the flight <04498> shall perish <06> (8804)
from the swift <07031>, and the strong <02389> shall not
strengthen <0553> (8762) his force <03581>, neither shall the
mighty <01368> deliver <04422> (8762) himself <05315>:
Amo 02:15 Neither shall he stand <05975> (8799) that handleth
<08610> (8802) the bow <07198>; and he that is swift <07031> of
foot <07272> shall not deliver <04422> (8762) himself: neither
shall he that rideth <07392> (8802) the horse <05483> deliver
<04422> (8762) himself <05315>.
Amo 02:16 And he that is courageous <0533> <03820> among the
mighty <01368> shall flee away <05127> (8799) naked <06174> in
that day <03117>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 03:01 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798) this word <01697> that the LORD
<03068> hath spoken <01696> (8765) against you, O children
<01121> of Israel <03478>, against the whole family <04940>
which I brought up <05927> (8689) from the land <0776> of Egypt
<04714>, saying <0559> (8800),
Amo 03:02 You only have I known <03045> (8804) of all the
families <04940> of the earth <0127>: therefore I will punish
<06485> (8799) you for all your iniquities <05771>.
Amo 03:03 Can two <08147> walk <03212> (8799) together <03162>,
except <01115> they be agreed <03259> (8738)?
Amo 03:04 Will a lion <0738> roar <07580> (8799) in the forest
<03293>, when he hath no prey <02964>? will a young lion <03715>
cry out <05414> (8799) <06963> of his den <04585>, if he have
taken <03920> (8804) nothing <01115>?
Amo 03:05 Can a bird <06833> fall <05307> (8799) in a snare
<06341> upon the earth <0776>, where no gin <04170> is for him?
shall one take up <05927> (8799) a snare <06341> from the earth
<0127>, and have taken <03920> (8799) nothing at all <03920>
(8800)?
Amo 03:06 Shall a trumpet <07782> be blown <08628> (8735) in
the city <05892>, and the people <05971> not be afraid <02729>
(8799)? shall there be evil <07451> in a city <05892>, and the
LORD <03068> hath not done <06213> (8804) it?
Amo 03:07 Surely the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> will do <06213>
(8799) nothing <01697>, but he revealeth <01540> (8804) his
secret <05475> unto his servants <05650> the prophets <05030>.
Amo 03:08 The lion <0738> hath roared <07580> (8804), who will
not <03808> fear <03372> (8799)? the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>
hath spoken <01696> (8765), who can but prophesy <05012> (8735)?
Amo 03:09 ¶ Publish <08085> (8685) in the palaces <0759> at
Ashdod <0795>, and in the palaces <0759> in the land <0776> of
Egypt <04714>, and say <0559> (8798), Assemble <0622> (8734)
yourselves upon the mountains <02022> of Samaria <08111>, and
behold <07200> (8798) the great <07227> tumults <04103> in the
midst <07130> thereof, and the oppressed <06217> in the midst
<08432> thereof.
Amo 03:10 For they know <03045> (8804) not to do <06213> (8800)
right <05229>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>, who store
<0686> (8802) up violence <02555> and robbery <07701> in their
palaces <0759>.
Amo 03:11 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136>
GOD <03069>; An adversary <06862> there shall be even round
about <05439> the land <0776>; and he shall bring down <03381>
(8689) thy strength <05797> from thee, and thy palaces <0759>
shall be spoiled <0962> (8738).
Amo 03:12 Thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>; As the
shepherd <07462> (8802) taketh out <05337> (8686) of the mouth
<06310> of the lion <0738> two <08147> legs <03767>, or a piece
<0915> of an ear <0241>; so shall the children <01121> of Israel
<03478> be taken out <05337> (8735) that dwell <03427> (8802) in
Samaria <08111> in the corner <06285> of a bed <04296>, and in
Damascus <01833> in a couch <06210>.
Amo 03:13 Hear <08085> (8798) ye, and testify <05749> (8685) in
the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, saith <05002> (8803) the
Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, the God <0430> of hosts <06635>,
Amo 03:14 That in the day <03117> that I shall visit <06485>
(8800) the transgressions <06588> of Israel <03478> upon him I
will also visit <06485> (8804) the altars <04196> of Bethel
<01008>: and the horns <07161> of the altar <04196> shall be cut
off <01438> (8738), and fall <05307> (8804) to the ground <0776>.
Amo 03:15 And I will smite <05221> (8689) the winter <02779>
house <01004> with the summer <07019> house <01004>; and the
houses <01004> of ivory <08127> shall perish <06> (8804), and
the great <07227> houses <01004> shall have an end <05486>
(8804), saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:01 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798) this word <01697>, ye kine
<06510> of Bashan <01316>, that are in the mountain <02022> of
Samaria <08111>, which oppress <06231> (8802) the poor <01800>,
which crush <07533> (8802) the needy <034>, which say <0559>
(8802) to their masters <0113>, Bring <0935> (8685), and let us
drink <08354> (8799).
Amo 04:02 The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> hath sworn <07650> (8738)
by his holiness <06944>, that, lo, the days <03117> shall come
<0935> (8802) upon you, that he will take you away <05375>
(8765) with hooks <06793>, and your posterity <0319> with
fishhooks <01729> <05518>.
Amo 04:03 And ye shall go out <03318> (8799) at the breaches
<06556>, every <0802> cow at that which is before her; and ye
shall cast <07993> (8689) them into the palace <02038>, saith
<05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:04 Come <0935> (8798) to Bethel <01008>, and transgress
<06586> (8798); at Gilgal <01537> multiply <07235> (8685)
transgression <06586> (8800); and bring <0935> (8685) your
sacrifices <02077> every morning <01242>, and your tithes
<04643> after three <07969> years <03117>:
Amo 04:05 And offer <06999> (8763) a sacrifice of thanksgiving
<08426> with leaven <02557>, and proclaim <07121> (8798) and
publish <08085> (8685) the free offerings <05071>: for this
<03651> liketh <0157> (8804) you, O ye children <01121> of
Israel <03478>, saith <05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>.
Amo 04:06 ¶ And I also have given <05414> (8804) you cleanness
<05356> of teeth <08127> in all your cities <05892>, and want
<02640> of bread <03899> in all your places <04725>: yet have ye
not returned <07725> (8804) unto me, saith <05002> (8803) the
LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:07 And also I have withholden <04513> (8804) the rain
<01653> from you, when there were yet three <07969> months
<02320> to the harvest <07105>: and I caused it to rain <04305>
(8689) upon one <0259> city <05892>, and caused it not to rain
<04305> (8686) upon another <0259> city <05892>: one <0259>
piece <02513> was rained <04305> (8735) upon, and the piece
<02513> whereupon it rained <04305> (8686) not withered <03001>
(8799).
Amo 04:08 So two <08147> or three <07969> cities <05892>
wandered <05128> (8804) unto one <0259> city <05892>, to drink
<08354> (8800) water <04325>; but they were not satisfied
<07646> (8799): yet have ye not returned <07725> (8804) unto me,
saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:09 I have smitten <05221> (8689) you with blasting
<07711> and mildew <03420>: when your gardens <01593> and your
vineyards <03754> and your fig trees <08384> and your olive
trees <02132> increased <07235> (8687), the palmerworm <01501>
devoured <0398> (8799) them: yet have ye not returned <07725>
(8804) unto me, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:10 I have sent <07971> (8765) among you the pestilence
<01698> after the manner <01870> of Egypt <04714>: your young
men <0970> have I slain <02026> (8804) with the sword <02719>,
and have taken away <07628> your horses <05483>; and I have made
the stink <0889> of your camps <04264> to come up <05927> (8686)
unto your nostrils <0639>: yet have ye not returned <07725>
(8804) unto me, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:11 I have overthrown <02015> (8804) some of you, as God
<0430> overthrew <04114> Sodom <05467> and Gomorrah <06017>, and
ye were as a firebrand <0181> plucked out <05337> (8716) of the
burning <08316>: yet have ye not returned <07725> (8804) unto me,
saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 04:12 Therefore thus will I do <06213> (8799) unto thee, O
Israel <03478>: and because <06118> I will do <06213> (8799)
this unto thee, prepare <03559> (8734) to meet <07125> (8800)
thy God <0430>, O Israel <03478>.
Amo 04:13 For, lo, he that formeth <03335> (8802) the mountains
<02022>, and createth <01254> (8802) the wind <07307>, and
declareth <05046> (8688) unto man <0120> what is his thought
<07808>, that maketh <06213> (8802) the morning <07837> darkness
<05890>, and treadeth <01869> (8802) upon the high places
<01116> of the earth <0776>, The LORD <03068>, The God <0430> of
hosts <06635>, is his name <08034>.
Amo 05:01 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798) ye this word <01697> which I
take up <05375> (8802) against you, even a lamentation <07015>,
O house <01004> of Israel <03478>.
Amo 05:02 The virgin <01330> of Israel <03478> is fallen
<05307> (8804); she shall no more <03254> (8686) rise <06965>
(8800): she is forsaken <05203> (8738) upon her land <0127>;
there is none to raise her up <06965> (8688).
Amo 05:03 For thus saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD
<03069>; The city <05892> that went out <03318> (8802) by a
thousand <0505> shall leave <07604> (8686) an hundred <03967>,
and that which went forth <03318> (8802) by an hundred <03967>
shall leave <07604> (8686) ten <06235>, to the house <01004> of
Israel <03478>.
Amo 05:04 ¶ For thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> unto
the house <01004> of Israel <03478>, Seek <01875> (8798) ye me,
and ye shall live <02421> (8798):
Amo 05:05 But seek <01875> (8799) not Bethel <01008>, nor enter
<0935> (8799) into Gilgal <01537>, and pass <05674> (8799) not
to Beersheba <0884>: for Gilgal <01537> shall surely <01540>
(8800) go into captivity <01540> (8799), and Bethel <01008>
shall come to nought <0205>.
Amo 05:06 Seek <01875> (8798) the LORD <03068>, and ye shall
live <02421> (8798); lest he break out <06743> (8799) like fire
<0784> in the house <01004> of Joseph <03130>, and devour <0398>
(8804) it, and there be none to quench <03518> (8764) it in
Bethel <01008>.
Amo 05:07 Ye who turn <02015> (8802) judgment <04941> to
wormwood <03939>, and leave off <03240> (8689) righteousness
<06666> in the earth <0776>,
Amo 05:08 Seek him that maketh <06213> (8802) the seven stars
<03598> and Orion <03685>, and turneth <02015> (8802) the shadow
of death <06757> into the morning <01242>, and maketh the day
<03117> dark <02821> (8689) with night <03915>: that calleth
<07121> (8802) for the waters <04325> of the sea <03220>, and
poureth them out <08210> (8799) upon the face <06440> of the
earth <0776>: The LORD <03068> is his name <08034>:
Amo 05:09 That strengtheneth <01082> (8688) the spoiled <07701>
against the strong <05794>, so that the spoiled <07701> shall
come <0935> (8799) against the fortress <04013>.
Amo 05:10 They hate <08130> (8804) him that rebuketh <03198>
(8688) in the gate <08179>, and they abhor <08581> (8762) him
that speaketh <01696> (8802) uprightly <08549>.
Amo 05:11 Forasmuch <03282> therefore as your treading <01318>
(8780) is upon the poor <01800>, and ye take <03947> (8799) from
him burdens <04864> of wheat <01250>: ye have built <01129>
(8804) houses <01004> of hewn stone <01496>, but ye shall not
dwell <03427> (8799) in them; ye have planted <05193> (8804)
pleasant <02531> vineyards <03754>, but ye shall not drink
<08354> (8799) wine <03196> of them.
Amo 05:12 For I know <03045> (8804) your manifold <07227>
transgressions <06588> and your mighty <06099> sins <02403>:
they afflict <06887> (8802) the just <06662>, they take <03947>
(8802) a bribe <03724>, and they turn aside <05186> (8689) the
poor <034> in the gate <08179> from their right.
Amo 05:13 Therefore the prudent <07919> (8688) shall keep
silence <01826> (8799) in that time <06256>; for it is an evil
<07451> time <06256>.
Amo 05:14 Seek <01875> (8798) good <02896>, and not evil
<07451>, that ye may live <02421> (8799): and so the LORD
<03068>, the God <0430> of hosts <06635>, shall be with you, as
ye have spoken <0559> (8804).
Amo 05:15 Hate <08130> (8798) the evil <07451>, and love <0157>
(8798) the good <02896>, and establish <03322> (8685) judgment
<04941> in the gate <08179>: it may be that the LORD <03068> God
<0430> of hosts <06635> will be gracious <02603> (8799) unto the
remnant <07611> of Joseph <03130>.
Amo 05:16 ¶ Therefore the LORD <03068>, the God <0430> of hosts
<06635>, the Lord <0136>, saith <0559> (8804) thus; Wailing
<04553> shall be in all streets <07339>; and they shall say
<0559> (8799) in all the highways <02351>, Alas <01930>! alas
<01930>! and they shall call <07121> (8804) the husbandman
<0406> to mourning <060>, and such as are skilful <03045> (8802)
of lamentation <05092> to wailing <04553>.
Amo 05:17 And in all vineyards <03754> shall be wailing <04553>:
for I will pass <05674> (8799) through <07130> thee, saith
<0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 05:18 Woe <01945> unto you that desire <0183> (8693) the
day <03117> of the LORD <03068>! to what end <04100> is it for
you? the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> is darkness <02822>,
and not light <0216>.
Amo 05:19 As if a man <0376> did flee <05127> (8799) from
<06440> a lion <0738>, and a bear <01677> met <06293> (8804) him;
or went <0935> (8804) into the house <01004>, and leaned
<05564> (8804) his hand <03027> on the wall <07023>, and a
serpent <05175> bit <05391> (8804) him.
Amo 05:20 Shall not the day <03117> of the LORD <03068> be
darkness <02822>, and not light <0216>? even very dark <0651>,
and no brightness <05051> in it?
Amo 05:21 ¶ I hate <08130> (8804), I despise <03988> (8804) your
feast days <02282>, and I will not smell <07306> (8686) in your
solemn assemblies <06116>.
Amo 05:22 Though ye offer <05927> (8686) me burnt offerings
<05930> and your meat offerings <04503>, I will not accept
<07521> (8799) them: neither will I regard <05027> (8686) the
peace offerings <08002> of your fat beasts <04806>.
Amo 05:23 Take thou away <05493> (8685) from me the noise
<01995> of thy songs <07892>; for I will not hear <08085> (8799)
the melody <02172> of thy viols <05035>.
Amo 05:24 But let judgment <04941> run down <01556> (8735) as
waters <04325>, and righteousness <06666> as a mighty <0386>
stream <05158>.
Amo 05:25 Have ye offered <05066> (8689) unto me sacrifices
<02077> and offerings <04503> in the wilderness <04057> forty
<0705> years <08141>, O house <01004> of Israel <03478>?
Amo 05:26 But ye have borne <05375> (8804) the tabernacle
<05522> of your Moloch <04428> and Chiun <03594> your images
<06754>, the star <03556> of your god <0430>, which ye made
<06213> (8804) to yourselves.
Amo 05:27 Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity
<01540> (8689) beyond <01973> Damascus <01834>, saith <0559>
(8804) the LORD <03068>, whose name <08034> is The God <0430> of
hosts <06635>.
Amo 06:01 ¶ Woe <01945> to them that are at ease <07600> in Zion
<06726>, and trust <0982> (8802) in the mountain <02022> of
Samaria <08111>, which are named <05344> (8803) chief <07225> of
the nations <01471>, to whom the house <01004> of Israel <03478>
came <0935> (8804)!
Amo 06:02 Pass <05674> (8798) ye unto Calneh <03641>, and see
<07200> (8798); and from thence go <03212> (8798) ye to Hamath
<02574> the great <07227> (8677) <02579>: then go down <03381>
(8798) to Gath <01661> of the Philistines <06430>: be they
better <02896> than these kingdoms <04467>? or their border
<01366> greater <07227> than your border <01366>?
Amo 06:03 Ye that put far away <05077> (8764) the evil <07451>
day <03117>, and cause the seat <07675> (8800) of violence
<02555> to come near <05066> (8686);
Amo 06:04 That lie <07901> (8802) upon beds <04296> of ivory
<08127>, and stretch <05628> (8803) themselves upon their
couches <06210>, and eat <0398> (8802) the lambs <03733> out of
the flock <06629>, and the calves <05695> out of the midst
<08432> of the stall <04770>;
Amo 06:05 That chant <06527> (8802) to the sound <06310> of the
viol <05035>, and invent <02803> (8804) to themselves
instruments <03627> of musick <07892>, like David <01732>;
Amo 06:06 That drink <08354> (8802) wine <03196> in bowls
<04219>, and anoint <04886> (8799) themselves with the chief
<07225> ointments <08081>: but they are not grieved <02470>
(8738) for the affliction <07667> of Joseph <03130>.
Amo 06:07 Therefore now shall they go captive <01540> (8799)
with the first <07218> that go captive <01540> (8802), and the
banquet <04797> of them that stretched <05628> (8803) themselves
shall be removed <05493> (8804).
Amo 06:08 ¶ The Lord <0136> GOD <03069> hath sworn <07650>
(8738) by himself <05315>, saith <05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>
the God <0430> of hosts <06635>, I abhor <08374> (8764) the
excellency <01347> of Jacob <03290>, and hate <08130> (8804) his
palaces <0759>: therefore will I deliver up <05462> (8689) the
city <05892> with all that is therein <04393>.
Amo 06:09 And it shall come to pass, if there remain <03498>
(8735) ten <06235> men <0582> in one <0259> house <01004>, that
they shall die <04191> (8804).
Amo 06:10 And a man’s uncle <01730> shall take him up <05375>
(8804), and he that burneth <05635> (8764) him, to bring out
<03318> (8687) the bones <06106> out of the house <01004>, and
shall say <0559> (8804) unto him that is by the sides <03411> of
the house <01004>, Is there yet any with thee? and he shall say
<0559> (8804), No <0657>. Then shall he say <0559> (8804), Hold
thy tongue <02013> (8761): for we may not make mention <02142>
(8687) of the name <08034> of the LORD <03068>.
Amo 06:11 For, behold, the LORD <03068> commandeth <06680>
(8764), and he will smite <05221> (8689) the great <01419> house
<01004> with breaches <07447>, and the little <06996> house
<01004> with clefts <01233>.
Amo 06:12 Shall horses <05483> run <07323> (8799) upon the rock
<05553>? will one plow <02790> (8799) there with oxen <01241>?
for ye have turned <02015> (8804) judgment <04941> into gall
<07219>, and the fruit <06529> of righteousness <06666> into
hemlock <03939>:
Amo 06:13 Ye which rejoice <08056> in a thing <01697> of nought
<03808>, which say <0559> (8802), Have we not taken <03947>
(8804) to us horns <07161> by our own strength <02392>?
Amo 06:14 But, behold, I will raise up <06965> (8688) against
you a nation <01471>, O house <01004> of Israel <03478>, saith
<05002> (8803) the LORD <03068> the God <0430> of hosts <06635>;
and they shall afflict <03905> (8804) you from the entering in
<0935> (8800) of Hemath <02574> unto the river <05158> of the
wilderness <06160>.
Amo 07:01 ¶ Thus hath the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> shewed <07200>
(8689) unto me; and, behold, he formed <03335> (8802)
grasshoppers <01462> in the beginning <08462> of the shooting up
<05927> (8800) of the latter growth <03954>; and, lo, it was the
latter growth <03954> after <0310> the king’s <04428> mowings
<01488>.
Amo 07:02 And it came to pass, that when they had made an end
<03615> (8765) of eating <0398> (8800) the grass <06212> of the
land <0776>, then I said <0559> (8799), O Lord <0136> GOD
<03069>, forgive <05545> (8798), I beseech thee: by whom shall
Jacob <03290> arise <06965> (8799)? for he is small <06996>.
Amo 07:03 The LORD <03068> repented <05162> (8738) for this: It
shall not be, saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 07:04 Thus hath the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> shewed <07200>
(8689) unto me: and, behold, the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> called
<07121> (8802) to contend <07378> (8800) by fire <0784>, and it
devoured <0398> (8799) the great <07227> deep <08415>, and did
eat up <0398> (8804) a part <02506>.
Amo 07:05 Then said <0559> (8799) I, O Lord <0136> GOD <03069>,
cease <02308> (8798), I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob
<03290> arise <06965> (8799)? for he is small <06996>.
Amo 07:06 The LORD <03068> repented <05162> (8738) for this:
This also shall not be, saith <0559> (8804) the Lord <0136> GOD
<03069>.
Amo 07:07 Thus he shewed <07200> (8689) me: and, behold, the
Lord <0136> stood <05324> (8737) upon a wall <02346> made by a
plumbline <0594>, with a plumbline <0594> in his hand <03027>.
Amo 07:08 And the LORD <03068> said <0559> (8799) unto me, Amos
<05986>, what seest <07200> (8802) thou? And I said <0559>
(8799), A plumbline <0594>. Then said <0559> (8799) the Lord
<0136>, Behold, I will set <07760> (8802) a plumbline <0594> in
the midst <07130> of my people <05971> Israel <03478>: I will
not again <03254> (8686) pass by <05674> (8800) them any more:
Amo 07:09 And the high places <01116> of Isaac <03446> shall be
desolate <08074> (8738), and the sanctuaries <04720> of Israel
<03478> shall be laid waste <02717> (8799); and I will rise
<06965> (8804) against the house <01004> of Jeroboam <03379>
with the sword <02719>.
Amo 07:10 ¶ Then Amaziah <0558> the priest <03548> of Bethel
<01008> sent <07971> (8799) to Jeroboam <03379> king <04428> of
Israel <03478>, saying <0559> (8800), Amos <05986> hath
conspired <07194> (8804) against thee in the midst <07130> of
the house <01004> of Israel <03478>: the land <0776> is not able
<03201> (8799) to bear <03557> (8687) all his words <01697>.
Amo 07:11 For thus Amos <05986> saith <0559> (8804), Jeroboam
<03379> shall die <04191> (8799) by the sword <02719>, and
Israel <03478> shall surely <01540> (8800) be led away captive
<01540> (8799) out of their own land <0127>.
Amo 07:12 Also Amaziah <0558> said <0559> (8799) unto Amos
<05986>, O thou seer <02374>, go <03212> (8798), flee thee away
<01272> (8798) into the land <0776> of Judah <03063>, and there
eat <0398> (8798) bread <03899>, and prophesy <05012> (8735)
there:
Amo 07:13 But prophesy <05012> (8736) not again <03254> (8686)
any more at Bethel <01008>: for it is the king’s <04428> chapel
<04720>, and it is the king’s <04467> court <01004>.
Amo 07:14 Then answered <06030> (8799) Amos <05986>, and said
<0559> (8799) to Amaziah <0558>, I was no prophet <05030>,
neither was I a prophet’s <05030> son <01121>; but I was an
herdman <0951>, and a gatherer <01103> (8802) of sycomore fruit
<08256>:
Amo 07:15 And the LORD <03068> took <03947> (8799) me as I
followed <0310> the flock <06629>, and the LORD <03068> said
<0559> (8799) unto me, Go <03212> (8798), prophesy <05012>
(8734) unto my people <05971> Israel <03478>.
Amo 07:16 Now therefore hear <08085> (8798) thou the word
<01697> of the LORD <03068>: Thou sayest <0559> (8802), Prophesy
<05012> (8735) not against Israel <03478>, and drop <05197>
(8686) not thy word against the house <01004> of Isaac <03446>.
Amo 07:17 Therefore thus saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068>;
Thy wife <0802> shall be an harlot <02181> (8799) in the city
<05892>, and thy sons <01121> and thy daughters <01323> shall
fall <05307> (8799) by the sword <02719>, and thy land <0127>
shall be divided <02505> (8792) by line <02256>; and thou shalt
die <04191> (8799) in <05921> a polluted <02931> land <0127>:
and Israel <03478> shall surely <01540> (8800) go into captivity
<01540> (8799) forth of his land <0127>.
Amo 08:01 ¶ Thus hath the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> shewed <07200>
(8689) unto me: and behold a basket <03619> of summer fruit
<07019>.
Amo 08:02 And he said <0559> (8799), Amos <05986>, what seest
<07200> (8802) thou? And I said <0559> (8799), A basket <03619>
of summer fruit <07019>. Then said <0559> (8799) the LORD
<03068> unto me, The end <07093> is come <0935> (8804) upon my
people <05971> of Israel <03478>; I will not again <03254>
(8686) pass <05674> (8800) by them any more.
Amo 08:03 And the songs <07892> of the temple <01964> shall be
howlings <03213> (8689) in that day <03117>, saith <05002>
(8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>: there shall be many <07227>
dead bodies <06297> in every place <04725>; they shall cast them
forth <07993> (8689) with silence <02013> (8761).
Amo 08:04 ¶ Hear <08085> (8798) this, O ye that swallow up
<07602> (8802) the needy <034>, even to make <07673> <00> the
poor <06041> (8675) <06035> of the land <0776> to fail <07673>
(8687),
Amo 08:05 Saying <0559> (8800), When will the new moon <02320>
be gone <05674> (8799), that we may sell <07666> (8686) corn
<07668>? and the sabbath <07676>, that we may set forth <06605>
(8799) wheat <01250>, making the ephah <0374> small <06994>
(8687), and the shekel <08255> great <01431> (8687), and
falsifying <05791> (8763) the balances <03976> by deceit <04820>?
Amo 08:06 That we may buy <07069> (8800) the poor <01800> for
silver <03701>, and the needy <034> for a pair of shoes <05275>;
yea, and sell <07666> (8686) the refuse <04651> of the wheat
<01250>?
Amo 08:07 The LORD <03068> hath sworn <07650> (8738) by the
excellency <01347> of Jacob <03290>, Surely I will never <05331>
forget <07911> (8799) any of their works <04639>.
Amo 08:08 Shall not the land <0776> tremble <07264> (8799) for
this, and every one mourn <056> (8804) that dwelleth <03427>
(8802) therein? and it shall rise up <05927> (8804) wholly as a
flood <02975>; and it shall be cast out <01644> (8738) and
drowned <08257> (8738) (8675) <08248> (8738), as by the flood
<0216> of Egypt <04714>.
Amo 08:09 And it shall come to pass in that day <03117>, saith
<05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, that I will cause
the sun <08121> to go down <0935> (8689) at noon <06672>, and I
will darken <02821> (8689) the earth <0776> in the clear <0216>
day <03117>:
Amo 08:10 And I will turn <02015> (8804) your feasts <02282>
into mourning <060>, and all your songs <07892> into lamentation
<07015>; and I will bring up <05927> (8689) sackcloth <08242>
upon all loins <04975>, and baldness <07144> upon every head
<07218>; and I will make <07760> (8804) it as the mourning <060>
of an only <03173> son, and the end <0319> thereof as a bitter
<04751> day <03117>.
Amo 08:11 ¶ Behold, the days <03117> come <0935> (8802), saith
<05002> (8803) the Lord <0136> GOD <03069>, that I will send
<07971> (8689) a famine <07458> in the land <0776>, not a famine
<07458> of bread <03899>, nor a thirst <06772> for water <04325>,
but of hearing <08085> (8800) the words <01697> of the LORD
<03068>:
Amo 08:12 And they shall wander <05128> (8804) from sea <03220>
to sea <03220>, and from the north <06828> even to the east
<04217>, they shall run to and fro <07751> (8787) to seek
<01245> (8763) the word <01697> of the LORD <03068>, and shall
not find <04672> (8799) it.
Amo 08:13 In that day <03117> shall the fair <03303> virgins
<01330> and young men <0970> faint <05968> (8691) for thirst
<06772>.
Amo 08:14 They that swear <07650> (8737) by the sin <0819> of
Samaria <08111>, and say <0559> (8804), Thy god <0430>, O Dan
<01835>, liveth <02416>; and, The manner <01870> of Beersheba
<0884> liveth <02416>; even they shall fall <05307> (8804), and
never rise up <06965> (8799) again.
Amo 09:01 ¶ I saw <07200> (8804) the Lord <0136> standing
<05324> (8737) upon the altar <04196>: and he said <0559> (8799),
Smite <05221> (8685) the lintel of the door <03730>, that the
posts <05592> may shake <07493> (8799): and cut <01214> (8798)
them in the head <07218>, all of them; and I will slay <02026>
(8799) the last <0319> of them with the sword <02719>: he that
fleeth <05127> (8801) of them shall not flee away <05127> (8799),
and he that escapeth <06412> of them shall not be delivered
<04422> (8735).
Amo 09:02 Though they dig <02864> (8799) into hell <07585>,
thence shall mine hand <03027> take <03947> (8799) them; though
they climb up <05927> (8799) to heaven <08064>, thence will I
bring them down <03381> (8686):
Amo 09:03 And though they hide <02244> (8735) themselves in the
top <07218> of Carmel <03760>, I will search <02664> (8762) and
take them out <03947> (8804) thence; and though they be hid
<05641> (8735) from my sight <05869> in the bottom <07172> of
the sea <03220>, thence will I command <06680> (8762) the
serpent <05175>, and he shall bite <05391> (8804) them:
Amo 09:04 And though they go <03212> (8799) into captivity
<07628> before <06440> their enemies <0341> (8802), thence will
I command <06680> (8762) the sword <02719>, and it shall slay
<02026> (8804) them: and I will set <07760> (8804) mine eyes
<05869> upon them for evil <07451>, and not for good <02896>.
Amo 09:05 And the Lord <0136> GOD <03069> of hosts <06635> is
he that toucheth <05060> (8802) the land <0776>, and it shall
melt <04127> (8799), and all that dwell <03427> (8802) therein
shall mourn <056> (8804): and it shall rise up <05927> (8804)
wholly like a flood <02975>; and shall be drowned <08257> (8804),
as by the flood <02975> of Egypt <04714>.
Amo 09:06 It is he that buildeth <01129> (8802) his stories
<04609> in the heaven <08064>, and hath founded <03245> (8804)
his troop <092> in the earth <0776>; he that calleth <07121>
(8802) for the waters <04325> of the sea <03220>, and poureth
them out <08210> (8799) upon the face <06440> of the earth
<0776>: The LORD <03068> is his name <08034>.
Amo 09:07 Are ye not as children <01121> of the Ethiopians
<03569> unto me, O children <01121> of Israel <03478>? saith
<05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>. Have not I brought up <05927>
(8689) Israel <03478> out of the land <0776> of Egypt <04714>?
and the Philistines <06430> from Caphtor <03731>, and the
Syrians <0758> from Kir <07024>?
Amo 09:08 Behold, the eyes <05869> of the Lord <0136> GOD
<03069> are upon the sinful <02403> kingdom <04467>, and I will
destroy <08045> (8689) it from off the face <06440> of the earth
<0127>; saving <0657> that I will not utterly <08045> (8687)
destroy <08045> (8686) the house <01004> of Jacob <03290>, saith
<05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>.
Amo 09:09 For, lo, I will command <06680> (8764), and I will
sift <05128> (8689) the house <01004> of Israel <03478> among
all nations <01471>, like as corn is sifted <05128> (8735) in a
sieve <03531>, yet shall not the least grain <06872> fall
<05307> (8799) upon the earth <0776>.
Amo 09:10 All the sinners <02400> of my people <05971> shall
die <04191> (8799) by the sword <02719>, which say <0559> (8802),
The evil <07451> shall not overtake <05066> (8686) nor prevent
<06923> (8686) us.
Amo 09:11 ¶ In that day <03117> will I raise up <06965> (8686)
the tabernacle <05521> of David <01732> that is fallen <05307>
(8802), and close up <01443> (8804) the breaches <06556> thereof;
and I will raise up <06965> (8686) his ruins <02034>, and I
will build <01129> (8804) it as in the days <03117> of old
<05769>:
Amo 09:12 That they may possess <03423> (8799) the remnant
<07611> of Edom <0123>, and of all the heathen <01471>, which
are called <07121> (8738) by my name <08034>, saith <05002>
(8803) the LORD <03068> that doeth <06213> (8802) this.
Amo 09:13 Behold, the days <03117> come <0935> (8802), saith
<05002> (8803) the LORD <03068>, that the plowman <02790> (8802)
shall overtake <05066> (8738) the reaper <07114> (8802), and the
treader <01869> (8802) of grapes <06025> him that soweth <04900>
(8802) seed <02233>; and the mountains <02022> shall drop
<05197> (8689) sweet wine <06071>, and all the hills <01389>
shall melt <04127> (8709).
Amo 09:14 And I will bring again <07725> (8804) the captivity
<07622> of my people <05971> of Israel <03478>, and they shall
build <01129> (8804) the waste <08074> (8737) cities <05892>,
and inhabit <03427> (8804) them; and they shall plant <05193>
(8804) vineyards <03754>, and drink <08354> (8804) the wine
<03196> thereof; they shall also make <06213> (8804) gardens
<01593>, and eat <0398> (8804) the fruit <06529> of them.
Amo 09:15 And I will plant <05193> (8804) them upon their land
<0127>, and they shall no more be pulled up <05428> (8735) out
of their land <0127> which I have given <05414> (8804) them,
saith <0559> (8804) the LORD <03068> thy God <0430>.
