Thus the Lord Yahweh
showed
me :
and, behold, he formed locusts
in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, behold
, it was the latter growth after the king's harvest
.
Thus hath
the Lord GOD
shewed
unto
me ;
and, behold, he formed grasshoppers
in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, lo
, it was the latter growth after the king's mowings
.
It happened
that
, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, "
Lord Yahweh
, forgive, I beg
you!
How
could
Jacob stand
? For he is small. "
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.
Yahweh
relented
concerning
this .
"
It shall not be, "
says
Yahweh
.
The
LORD
repented
for
this :
It shall not be, saith
the
LORD
.

showed
me and, behold, the Lord Yahweh
called for
judgment
by fire ;
and it dried
up
the great deep, and would
have
devoured
the
land
.
Thus hath
the Lord GOD
shewed
unto
me :
and, behold, the Lord GOD
called to
contend
by fire ,
and it devoured
the great deep, and did
eat
up
a
part
.
Then I
said, "
Lord Yahweh
, stop
, I beg
you!
How
could
Jacob stand
? For he is small. "
Then said I
, O
Lord GOD
, cease
, I beseech
thee:
by
whom
shall
Jacob arise
? for he is small.
Yahweh
relented
concerning
this .
"
This also shall not be, "
says
the Lord Yahweh
.
The
LORD
repented
for
this :
This also shall not be, saith
the Lord GOD

Thus he showed
me and, behold, the Lord stood beside
a wall made by a plumb
line
, with a plumb
line
in his hand.
Thus he shewed
me :
and, behold, the LORD stood upon
a wall made by a plumbline
, with a plumbline
in his hand.
Yahweh
said to
me, "
Amos, what do
you
see
? "
I said, "
A plumb
line
. "
Then the Lord said
, "
Behold, I will set a plumb
line
in the midst of my people Israel .
I will not again pass by them any more .
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 :
The high places of Isaac will
be desolate, the sanctuaries of Israel will
be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. "
And
the high places of Isaac shall
be desolate, and
the sanctuaries of Israel shall
be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.
Then Amaziah the priest of Beth
El
sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, "
Amos has
conspired against you
in the midst of the house of Israel .
The land is not able to bear all his words.
Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel
sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath
conspired against thee
in the midst of the house of Israel :
the land is not able to bear all his words.
For Amos says
, '
Jeroboam will
die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his
land. '"
For thus
Amos saith
, Jeroboam shall
die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their
own
land.
Amaziah
also said to
Amos, "You
seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there:
Also Amaziah
said unto
Amos, O
thou
seer, go, flee thee
away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there:
but don't
prophesy again any more at Bethel ;
for it is the king's sanctuary
, and it is a
royal
house!"
But prophesy not
again any more at Bethel :
for it is the king's chapel
, and it is the
king's
court.
Then Amos
answered Amaziah, "
I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a
herdsman
, and a farmer
of sycamore
trees;
Then answered Amos,
and
said
to
Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an
herdman
, and a gatherer
of sycomore
fruit:
and Yahweh
took me from
following
the flock, and Yahweh
said to
me, '
Go, prophesy to
my people Israel. '
And the
LORD
took me as
I
followed
the flock, and the
LORD
said unto
me, Go, prophesy unto
my people Israel.
Now therefore listen
to
the word of Yahweh
: 'You
say
, Don't
prophesy against Israel, and don't
preach
against the house of Isaac. '
Now therefore hear
thou
the word of the
LORD
: Thou
sayest
, Prophesy not
against Israel, and drop
not
thy
word
against the house of Isaac.
Therefore thus says
Yahweh:
'Your
wife shall be a
prostitute
in the city, and your
sons and your
daughters shall fall by the sword, and your
land shall be divided by line; and you
yourself
shall
die in a land that
is
unclean,
and Israel shall surely be
led
away
captive
out
of his land. '"
Therefore thus saith
the
LORD;
Thy
wife shall be an
harlot
in the city, and thy
sons and thy
daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy
land shall be divided by line; and thou
shalt
die in a polluted
land :
and Israel shall surely go
into
captivity
forth
of his land.
