Amos 3:9--4:3

Publish
<08085> (8685)
in the palaces
<0759>
at Ashdod
<0795>_,
and in the palaces
<0759>
in the land
<0776>
of Egypt
<04714>_,
and say
<0559> (8798)_,
Assemble
<0622> (8734)
yourselves upon the mountains
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
and behold
<07200> (8798)
the great
<07227>
tumults
<04103>
in the midst
<07130>
thereof, and the oppressed
<06217>
in the midst
<08432>
thereof. {oppressed: or, oppressions}
For they know
<03045> (8804)
not to do
<06213> (8800)
right
<05229>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_,
who store
<0686> (8802)
up violence
<02555>
and robbery
<07701>
in their palaces
<0759>_.
{robbery: or, spoil}
Therefore thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_;
An adversary
<06862>
[there shall be] even round about
<05439>
the land
<0776>_;
and he shall bring down
<03381> (8689)
thy strength
<05797>
from thee, and thy palaces
<0759>
shall be spoiled
<0962> (8738)_.
Thus saith
<0559> (8804)
the LORD
<03068>_;
As the shepherd
<07462> (8802)
taketh out
<05337> (8686)
of the mouth
<06310>
of the lion
<0738>
two
<08147>
legs
<03767>_,
or a piece
<0915>
of an ear
<0241>_;
so shall the children
<01121>
of Israel
<03478>
be taken out
<05337> (8735)
that dwell
<03427> (8802)
in Samaria
<08111>
in the corner
<06285>
of a bed
<04296>_,
and in Damascus
<01833>
[in] a couch
<06210>_.
{taketh: Heb. delivereth} {in Damascus...: or, on the bed's feet}
Hear
<08085> (8798)
ye, and testify
<05749> (8685)
in the house
<01004>
of Jacob
<03290>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>_,
the God
<0430>
of hosts
<06635>_,
That in the day
<03117>
that I shall visit
<06485> (8800)
the transgressions
<06588>
of Israel
<03478>
upon him I will also visit
<06485> (8804)
the altars
<04196>
of Bethel
<01008>_:
and the horns
<07161>
of the altar
<04196>
shall be cut off
<01438> (8738)_,
and fall
<05307> (8804)
to the ground
<0776>_.
{visit: or, punish Israel for}
And I will smite
<05221> (8689)
the winter
<02779>
house
<01004>
with the summer
<07019>
house
<01004>_;
and the houses
<01004>
of ivory
<08127>
shall perish
<06> (8804)_,
and the great
<07227>
houses
<01004>
shall have an end
<05486> (8804)_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
Hear
<08085> (8798)
this word
<01697>_,
ye kine
<06510>
of Bashan
<01316>_,
that [are] in the mountain
<02022>
of Samaria
<08111>_,
which oppress
<06231> (8802)
the poor
<01800>_,
which crush
<07533> (8802)
the needy
<034>_,
which say
<0559> (8802)
to their masters
<0113>_,
Bring
<0935> (8685)_,
and let us drink
<08354> (8799)_.
The Lord
<0136>
GOD
<03069>
hath sworn
<07650> (8738)
by his holiness
<06944>_,
that, lo, the days
<03117>
shall come
<0935> (8802)
upon you, that he will take you away
<05375> (8765)
with hooks
<06793>_,
and your posterity
<0319>
with fishhooks
<01729> <05518>_.
And ye shall go out
<03318> (8799)
at the breaches
<06556>_,
every
<0802>
[cow at that which is] before her; and ye shall cast
<07993> (8689)
[them] into the palace
<02038>_,
saith
<05002> (8803)
the LORD
<03068>_.
{cast...: or, cast away the things of the palace}
