Amos 4
Revised Version 1895
1HearH8085 this wordH1697, ye kine of BashanH1316, that are in the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, whichH834 oppressH6231 the poorH34, whichH834 crushH7533 the needyH34, whichH834 sayH559 unto their lordsH113, BringH935, and let usH935 drinkH8354. 2The LordH136 GODH136 hath swornH7650 by his holinessH6944, that, loH2009, the daysH3117 shall comeH935 uponH5921 youH3588, that they shall takeH5375 youH3588 awayH5375 with hooks, and your residue with fishH1729 hooks. 3And ye shall goH3318 outH3318 at the breachesH6556, everyH802 one straightH5048 beforeH5048 herH802; and ye shall castH7993 yourselves intoH7993 HarmonH2038, saith the LORDH3068. 4ComeH935 to Beth-el, and transgressH6586; to GilgalH1537, and multiplyH7235 transgressionH6586; and bringH935 your sacrificesH2077 everyH1242 morningH1242, and your tithesH4643 everyH1242 threeH7969 daysH3117; 5and offerH6999 a sacrificeH6999 of thanksgivingH8426 of that whichH2557 is leavenedH2557, and proclaimH7121 freewillH5071 offeringsH5071 and publish them: for this liketh youH3588, O ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, saith the LordH136 GODH136. 6And I also have givenH5414 youH5414 cleannessH5356 of teethH8127 in allH3605 your citiesH5892, and want of breadH3899 in allH3605 your placesH4725: yet have ye notH3808 returnedH7725 unto meH5414, saith the LORDH3068. 7And I also have withholden the rainH1653 from youH834, when there were yet threeH7969 monthsH2320 to the harvestH7105: and I causedH834 it to rainH1653 uponH5921 one cityH5892, and causedH834 it notH3808 to rainH1653 uponH5921 anotherH259 cityH5892: one piece was rainedH4305 uponH5921, and the piece whereupon it rainedH4305 notH3808 witheredH3001. 8SoH3808 twoH8147 or threeH7969 citiesH5892 wanderedH5128 unto one cityH5892 to drinkH8354 waterH4325, and were notH3808 satisfiedH7646: yet have ye notH3808 returnedH7725 unto meH413, saith the LORDH3068. 9I have smittenH5221 youH5704 with blasting and mildewH3420: the multitude of your gardensH1593 and your vineyardsH3754 and your figH8384 treesH2132 and your oliveH2132 treesH2132 hath the palmerworm devouredH398: yet have ye notH3808 returnedH7725 unto meH7725, saith the LORDH3068. 10I have sentH7971 among youH7971 the pestilenceH1698 afterH5704 the mannerH1870 of EgyptH4714: your youngH970 menH970 have I slainH2026 with the swordH2719, and have carriedH5927 awayH7971 your horsesH5483; and I have madeH7725 the stink of your campH4264 to comeH5927 upH5927 evenH5704 intoH4714 your nostrilsH639: yet have ye notH3808 returnedH7725 unto meH7971, saith the LORDH3068. 11I have overthrownH2015 some among youH5704, as when GodH430 overthrewH2015 SodomH5467 and GomorrahH6017, and ye were as a brandH181 pluckedH5337 outH8316 of the burningH8316: yet have ye notH3808 returnedH7725 unto meH7725, saith the LORDH3068. 12Therefore thusH3541 will I doH6213 unto thee, O IsraelH3478: and becauseH3588 I will doH6213 this unto thee, prepareH3559 to meetH7125 thy GodH430, O IsraelH3478. 13For, loH2009, he that formeth the mountainsH2022, and createth the windH7307, and declareth unto manH120 whatH4100 is his thought, that maketh the morningH7837 darknessH5890, and treadeth uponH5921 the highH1116 placesH1116 of the earthH776; the LORDH3068, the GodH430 of hostsH6635, is his nameH8034.
