1ThusH3541 the LordH136 1GodH3068 showedH7200 me, and beholdH2009, there was a basketH3619 of summerH7019 fruitH7019. 2He saidH559, “WhatH4100 do you seeH7200, AmosH5986?” And 2I saidH559, “A basketH3619 of summerH7019 fruitH7019.” Then the LordH3068 saidH559 to me, “The 3endH7093 has comeH935 for My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478. I will 45spareH5674 them noH3808 longerH3254H5750. 36The 7songsH7892 of the palaceH1964 will turnH3213 to 8wailingH3213 in that dayH3117,” declaresH5002 the LordH136 GodH3068. “ManyH7227 will be the 9corpsesH6297; in everyH3605 placeH4725 10they will castH7993 them forth 11in silenceH2013.”
