Amos 4:6-9

6“But I gave you also 1cleanness of teeth in all your cities And lack of bread in all your places, Yet you have 2not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.7“Furthermore, I 3withheld the rain from you While there were still three months until harvest. Then I would send rain on one city And on 4another city I would not send rain; One part would be rained on, While the part not rained on would dry up.8So two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink 5water, But would 6not be satisfied; Yet you have 7not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.9“I 8smote you with scorching wind and mildew; And the 9caterpillar was devouring Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees; Yet you have 10not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
