Amos 7:14-16

14Then Amos answered Amaziah, ‘My job was not as a prophet. My father never did that work. My job was to work as a shepherd. I also took care of fig trees.

15But the Lord told me to leave my work as a shepherd. He told me to go and to speak his message to his people, the Israelites.

16So listen to the Lord's message to you! You are telling me, “Do not speak God's message against Israel. Do not say that trouble is coming to Isaac's descendants.”
