Amos 7:9-16

9And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.

10Then Amaziah the priest of Beth–el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos hath conspired against thee in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words. 11For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land. 12Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou seer, go, flee thee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there: 13But prophesy not again any more at Beth–el: for it is the king’s chapel, and it is the king’s court.12

14Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:3 15And Yhwh took me as I followed the flock, And Yhwh said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.4

16Now therefore hear thou the word of Yhwh: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not thy word against the house of Isaac.
