Amos 7:14-17

14So Amos answered Amaziah, “I was not a prophet or the son of a prophet; rather, I was a herdsman, and I took care of sycamore figs.

15But the Lord took me from following the flock and said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’”

16Now hear the word of the Lord. You say: Do not prophesy against Israel; do not preach against the house of Isaac.

17Therefore, this is what the Lord says: Your wife will be a prostitute in the city, your sons and daughters will fall by the sword, and your land will be divided up with a measuring line. You yourself will die on pagan soil, and Israel will certainly go into exile from its homeland.
