Book 30 : AMOS - Chapter 003
003:001
You only have I known of all the families of the earth:
therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities
003:002
Can two walk together, except they be agreed
003:003
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
003:004
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
003:005
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
003:006
Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his
secret unto his servants the prophets
003:007
The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath
spoken, who can but prophesy
003:008
Publish in the palaces at Ashdod, and in the palaces in the
land of Egypt, and say, Assemble yourselves upon the mountains
of Samaria, and behold the great tumults in the midst thereof,
and the oppressed in the midst thereof
003:009
For they know not to do right, saith the LORD, who store up
violence and robbery in their palaces
003:010
Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD; An adversary there shall be
even round about the land; and he shall bring down thy
strength from thee, and thy palaces shall be spoiled
003:011
Thus saith the LORD; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth
of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the
children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the
corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch
003:012
Hear ye, and testify in the house of Jacob, saith the Lord
GOD, the God of hosts
003:013
That in the day that I shall visit the transgressions of
Israel upon him I will also visit the altars of Bethel: and
the horns of the altar shall be cut off, and fall to the
ground
003:014
And I will smite the winter house with the summer house; and
the houses of ivory shall perish, and the great houses shall
have an end, saith the LORD
