Amos 3:1-8
1HearH8085 this wordH1697 that YhwhH3068 hath spokenH1696 against you, O childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, against the whole familyH4940 which I brought upH5927 from the landH776 of EgyptH4714, sayingH559,
2You only have I knownH3045 of all the familiesH4940 of the earthH127: therefore I will punishH6485 you for all your iniquitiesH5771.1
3Can twoH8147 walkH3212 togetherH3162, exceptH1115 they be agreedH3259?
4Will a lionH738 roarH7580 in the forestH3293, when he hath no preyH2964? will a young lionH3715 cry outH6963H5414 of his denH4585, if he have takenH3920 nothingH1115?2
5Can a birdH6833 fallH5307 in a snareH6341 upon the earthH776, where no ginH4170 is for him? shall one take upH5927 a snareH6341 from the earthH127, and have takenH3920 nothing at allH3920?
6Shall a trumpetH7782 be blownH8628 in the cityH5892, and the peopleH5971 not be afraidH2729? shall there be evilH7451 in a cityH5892, And YhwhH3068 hath not doneH6213 it?34
7Surely the LordH136 YhwhH3069 will doH6213 nothingH1697, but he revealethH1540 his secretH5475 unto his servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030.
8The lionH738 hath roaredH7580, who will notH3808 fearH3372? the LordH136 YhwhH3069 hath spokenH1696, who can but prophesyH5012?
