Amos 8:1-3

1This is what the Lord 1God showed me, and behold, there was a basket of summer fruit. 2And He 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 not 45spare them any longer. 36The 7songs of the palace will turn to 8wailing on that day,” declares the Lord God. “The 9corpses will be many; in every place 10they will throw them out. 11Hush!”
