AM-2:11 And I raised up of your sons for prophets, and of your

young men for Nazarites. [Is it] not even thus, O ye children of

Israel? saith the LORD.




AM-3:3 Can two walk together, except they be agreed?




AM-3:4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey?

will a young lion cry out of his den, if he have taken nothing?




AM-3:5 Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin

[is] for him? shall [one] take up a snare from the earth, and

have taken nothing at all?




AM-3:6 Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not

be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD hath not

done [it]?




AM-3:8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD

hath spoken, who can but prophesy?




AM-5:18 Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what

end [is] it for you? the day of the LORD [is] darkness, and not

light.




AM-5:20 [Shall] not the day of the LORD [be] darkness, and not

light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?




AM-5:25 Have ye offered unto me sacrifices and offerings in the

wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?




AM-6:2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to

Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: [be

they] better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than

your border?




AM-6:10 And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth

him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto

him that [is] by the sides of the house, [Is there] yet [any]

with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy

tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.




AM-6:12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [one] plow [there]

with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit

of righteousness into hemlock:




AM-6:13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have

we not taken to us horns by our own strength?




AM-7:2 And it came to pass, [that] when they had made an end of

eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord GOD, forgive,

I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he [is] small.




AM-7:5 Then said I, O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee: by whom

shall Jacob arise? for he [is] small.




AM-7:8 And the LORD said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I

said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a

plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again

pass by them any more:




AM-8:2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket

of summer fruit. Then said the LORD unto me, The end is come

upon my people of Israel; I will not again pass by them any more.




AM-8:5 Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell

corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth wheat, making the

ephah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances

by deceit?




AM-8:6 That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a

pair of shoes; [yea], and sell the refuse of the wheat?




AM-8:8 Shall not the land tremble for this, and every one mourn

that dwelleth therein? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood;

and it shall be cast out and drowned, as [by] the flood of Egypt.




AM-9:7 [Are] ye not as children of the Ethiopians unto me, O

children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel

out of the land of Egypt? and the Philistines from Caphtor, and

the Syrians from Kir?
