Amos 7:14-16

14Then AmosH5986 repliedH6030 to AmaziahH558, “I am not a prophetH5030, norH3808 am I the 1sonH1121 of a prophetH5030; for I am a herdsmanH951 and a 2growerH1103 ofH1103 sycamoreH8256 figsH1103.

15But the LordH3068 tookH3947 me from 3followingH310 the flockH6629, and the LordH3068 saidH559 to me, ‘GoH1980 4prophesyH5012 to My peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.’

16So nowH6258 hearH8085 the wordH1697 of the LordH3068: you are sayingH559, ‘You 5shall not prophesyH5012 againstH5921 IsraelH3478 6norH3808 shall you 7prophesyH5197 againstH5921 the houseH1004 of IsaacH3327.’
