Amos 2:9-11
9“Yet it was I who destroyed the 1Amorite before them, 2Though his 3height was like the height of cedars And he was strong as the oaks; I even destroyed his 4fruit above and his root below.10It was I who 5brought you up from the land of Egypt, And I led you in the wilderness 6forty years 7That you might take possession of the land of the 8Amorite.11Then I 9raised up some of your sons to be prophets And some of your young men to be 10Nazirites. Is this not so, O sons of Israel?” declares the Lord.
