Amos 6:7-11

7ThereforeH3651 shall they nowH6258 goH1540 captive with the first that goH1540 captive; and the revelry of them that stretched themselves shall pass awayH5493. 8The Lord Jehovah hath swornH7650 by himself, saith Jehovah, the GodH430 of hostsH6635: I abhor the excellency of JacobH3290, and hateH8130 his palaces; therefore will I deliverH5462 up the cityH5892 with all that is therein. 9And it shall come to pass, if there remain tenH6235 menH376 in oneH259 houseH1004, that they shall dieH4191. 10And when a man’s uncleH1730 shall takeH5375 him up, even he that burneth him, to bringH3318 out the bonesH6106 out of the houseH1004, and shall sayH559 unto him that is in the innermostH3411 partsH3411 of the houseH1004, Is there yetH5750 any with thee? and he shall sayH559, No; then shall he sayH559, Hold thy peace; for we may not makeH2142 mention of the nameH8034 of Jehovah. 11For, behold, Jehovah commandeth, and the greatH1419 houseH1004 shall be smitten with breaches, and the littleH6996 houseH1004 with clefts.
