Amos 7:7-11

7ThusH3541 he shewed meH5921: and, beholdH2009, the LordH136 stoodH5324 besideH5921 a wallH2346 made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his handH3027.

8And the LORDH3068 saidH559 unto meH413, AmosH5986, whatH4100 seest thou? And I saidH559, A plumbline. Then saidH559 the LordH3068, BeholdH2005, I will setH7760 a plumbline in the midstH7130 of my peopleH5971 IsraelH3478; I will notH3808 againH5750 passH5674 by them anyH5750 moreH5750:

9and the highH1116 placesH1116 of IsaacH3446 shall be desolateH8074, and the sanctuariesH4720 of IsraelH3478 shall be laidH8074 wasteH8074; and I will riseH6965 againstH5921 the houseH1004 of JeroboamH3379 with the swordH2719.

10Then AmaziahH558 the priestH3548 of Beth-el sentH7971 to JeroboamH3379 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478, sayingH559, AmosH5986 hath conspiredH7194 againstH5921 thee in the midstH7130 of the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478: the landH776 is notH3808 ableH3201 to bear allH3605 his wordsH1697.

11For thusH3541 AmosH5986 saith, JeroboamH3379 shall dieH4191 by the swordH2719, and IsraelH3478 shall surelyH3588 be ledH1540 awayH1540 captiveH1540 outH5921 of his landH127.
