The words
<01697>

of Amos
<05986>_,

who was among the herdmen
<05349>

of Tekoa
<08620>_,

which he saw
<02372> (8804)

concerning Israel
<03478>

in the days
<03117>

of Uzziah
<05818>

king
<04428>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and in the days
<03117>

of Jeroboam
<03379>

the son
<01121>

of Joash
<03101>

king
<04428>

of Israel
<03478>_,

two years
<08141>

before
<06440>

the earthquake
<07494>_.

Thus saith
<0559> (8804)

the LORD
<03068>_;

For three
<07969>

transgressions
<06588>

of Judah
<03063>_,

and for four
<0702>_,

I will not turn away
<07725> (8686)

[the punishment] thereof; because they have despised
<03988> (8800)

the law
<08451>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and have not kept
<08104> (8804)

his commandments
<02706>_,

and their lies
<03577>

caused them to err
<08582> (8686)_,

after
<0310>

the which their fathers
<01>

have walked
<01980> (8804)_:
