Amos 3:9-15

9Publish ye in the palacesH759 at AshdodH795, and in the palacesH759 in the landH776 of EgyptH4714, and sayH559, AssembleH622 yourselves uponH5921 the mountainsH2022 of SamariaH8111, and beholdH7200 whatH5921 greatH7227 tumultsH4103 are therein, and whatH5921 oppressionsH6217 in the midstH8432 thereof. 10For they knowH3045 notH3808 to doH6213 right, saith the LORDH3068, who storeH686 upH686 violenceH2555 and robbery in their palacesH759. 11Therefore thusH3541 saith the LordH136 GODH136: An adversary there shall be, evenH3651 roundH5439 aboutH5439 the landH776: and he shall bringH3381 downH3381 thy strengthH5797 from thee, and thy palacesH759 shall be spoiled. 12ThusH3541 saith the LORDH3068: As the shepherdH7462 rescueth outH3427 of the mouthH6310 of the lionH738 twoH8147 legsH3767, or a pieceH915 of an earH241; soH3651 shall the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 be rescuedH5337 that sitH3427 in SamariaH8111 in the cornerH6285 of a couchH4296, and on the silken cushions of a bedH4296. 13HearH8085 ye, and testify againstH3290 the houseH1004 of JacobH3290, saith the LordH136 GODH430, the GodH430 of hostsH6635. 14For in the dayH3117 that I shall visitH6485 the transgressionsH6588 of IsraelH3478 uponH5921 him, I will also visitH6485 the altarsH4196 of Beth-el, and the hornsH7161 of the altarH4196 shall be cutH1438 offH5921, and fallH5307 to the groundH776. 15And I will smiteH5221 the winterH2779 houseH1004 with the summerH7019 houseH1004; and the housesH1004 of ivoryH8127 shall perishH6, and the greatH7227 housesH1004 shall have an endH5486, saith the LORDH3068.
