14Then answeredH6030 AmosH5986, and saidH559 to AmaziahH558, I was no prophetH5030, neither was I a prophet’sH5030 sonH1121; but I was an herdmanH951, and a gathererH1103 of sycomore fruitH8256:1 15And YhwhH3068 tookH3947 me as I followedH310 the flockH6629, And YhwhH3068 saidH559 unto me, GoH3212, prophesyH5012 unto my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478.2

16Now therefore hearH8085 thou the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068: Thou sayestH559, ProphesyH5012 not against IsraelH3478, and dropH5197 not thy word against the houseH1004 of IsaacH3446.
