Amos 4:6-11

6“I afflicted all your cities with cleanness of teeth1 and all your towns with lack of bread, yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.7“I also withheld the rain from you when the harvest was three months away. I sent rain on one city but withheld it from another. One field received rain; another without rain withered.8People staggered from city to city for water to drink, but they were not satisfied; yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.9“I struck you with blight and mildew in your growing gardens and vineyards; the locust devoured your fig and olive trees, yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.10“I sent plagues among you like those of Egypt; I killed your young men with the sword, along with your captured horses. I filled your nostrils with the stench of your camp, yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.11“Some of you I overthrew as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah, and you were like a firebrand2 snatched from a blaze, yet you did not return to Me,” declares the LORD.
