Amos 6:8-10
8The Lord 1God has 2sworn by Himself, the Lord God of hosts has declared: “I 3loathe the arrogance of Jacob, And 4detest his 5citadels; Therefore I will 6deliver up the city and 7all it contains.” 9And it will be, if 8ten men are left in one house, they will die. 10Then one’s 9uncle, or his 1011undertaker, will lift him up to carry out his bones from the house, and he will say to the one who is in the innermost part of the house, “Is anyone else with you?” And that one will say, “No one.” Then he will 12answer, “13Keep quiet. For 14the name of the Lord is 15not to be mentioned.”
