Amos 8:1-3
1Thus the Lord 1God showed me, and behold, there was a basket of summer fruit. 2He said, “What do you see, Amos?” And 2I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me, “The 3end has come for My people Israel. I will 45spare them no longer. 36The 7songs of the palace will turn to 8wailing in that day,” declares the Lord God. “Many will be the 9corpses; in every place 10they will cast them forth 11in silence.”
