Amos 3:1-8

1HearH8085 this wordH1697 that Jehovah hath spokenH1696 against you, children of IsraelH3478, against the whole familyH4940 that I broughtH5927 up from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, sayingH559,

2You onlyH7535 have I knownH3045 of all the familiesH4940 of the earthH127; thereforeH3651 will I visitH6485 upon you all your iniquitiesH5771.

3Shall twoH8147 walk togetherH3162 except they be agreed?

4Will a lionH738 roarH7580 in the forestH3293 when he hath no preyH2964? Will a youngH3715 lionH738 cry out of his denH4585 if he have takenH3920 nothingH369?

5Can a birdH6833 fallH5307 in a snareH4170 upon the earthH776 when no gin [is laid] for him? Will the snareH4170 spring up from the earthH776 when nothing at all hath been takenH3920?

6Shall a trumpetH7782 beH1961 blownH8628 in the cityH5892, and the peopleH5971 not beH1961 afraid? Shall there beH1961 evilH7451 in a cityH5892, and Jehovah not have done [it]?

7But the LordH136 Jehovah will do nothing, but he revealeth his secretH5475 unto his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.

8The lionH738 hath roaredH7580, — who will not fearH3372? The LordH136 Jehovah hath spokenH1696, — who can but prophesyH5012?
