Amos 6~7

[bonita]

Amos 6

1. Woe to you who are complacent in Zion and to you whi feel secure on Mount Samaria, you notabe men of the forenost nation to whom the [people of Israel come!
2. Go to Caoneh and look at it; go from there to great Hamath, and then go down to Gath in Philistia. Are they better off than your own kingdoms? Is their land larger than yours?
3. You put off the evil day and bring near a reign of terror
4. You lie on beds inlaid with ivory and lounge on your couches. You dine on choice lambs and fattened calves.
5. You strum away on your harps like David and improvise on musical instruments.
6. You drink  wine by the bowlful and use the finest lotions, but you do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph.
7. Therefore you will be among the first to go into exile; your fasting and  lounging will end.
8. The Sovereign LORD has sworn by himself- the LORD God almighty declares; "I abhor the pride of Jacob and detest his fortresses; I will deliver up the city and everything in it."
9. If ten mena re left in one house, they too will die.
10. And if a relative who is to burn the bodies comes to carry them out of the house and asks abyone still hiding there ,"Is anyone with you?" and he says, "No," then he will say, "Hush! We must not mention thje name of the LORD,"
11. For the LORD has given the command, and he will smasj the great hous happen," the LORD said.e into pieces and the small house into bits
12. Do horses run on the rocky crags? Does one plow there with oxen? But you have turned justice into poisition, and t fruit of righteousness into poison and the fruit of righteousness into bitternes
13. you who righteousness into bitterness and sahy,"Did we not take Karnaim by our own strength?
14. For the LORD God Almighty declares,"I will stir up a nation against you, O house of israel, that will oppress you all the way from Lebo Hamath to the valley of the Arabah.

Amos 7

1.  This is waht the Sovereign LORD showed me; He was preparing swarmas of locusts after the king's share had been harvested and just as the second crop was coming up.
2. When they had stripped the land clean. I cried out. Sovereign LORD, forgive! How can Jacob survive! He is so small!"
3. So tje LORD relented,"This  will not happen," the LORD said.
4. This is what the Sovereign LORD showed me. The Sovereign LORD was calling for judgement by fire, it dried up the great deep and devoured the land.
5. Then I cried out, "Sovereign LORD, I  beg you, stop! How can Jacob survive? He is so small
6. 'So the LORD relented," This will not happen either," the Sovereign LORD said.
7. Thjis is waht he showed me; The Lord was  standing by a wall that had been built true to plumbs with a plumb line in his hand
8. And  the LORD asked me,"What do you see, Amos?""A plumb line," I replied, Then among my people Israel; I will spare them no longer.
9. "The high places of Israel will be destroyed and teh sanctuaries of israel will be ruined with my sword I will rise against the houses of Jeroboam."
10. Then Amaziah the proest of  Bethel sent a messsssssssssage to Jeroboam  king of israel;"Amos is raising a conspiracy against you in the very heart of Israel. The land cannot bear all his words.
11. For this is what Amos is saying:"Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely gp into exile away from their native land."
12. Then Amaziah said to Amos, "Get out, you seer! Go abck to the land of Judah, I am your bread there and do your propheyingn theremore 
13. Don't prophesy anymore at Bethel, because this is the king's samctuary and the temple of the kingdom,"
14. Amos answered Amaziah," I was neither a prophet nor a prophet's son, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees
15. But the LORD took md from tending the flock and said to me, Go, prophesyto my people Israel.
16. Now then, hear the word of the LORD .You say,"Do not prophesya gainst Israel, and stop preaching against the house of Issac.'
17. "Therefore this is what the LORD say's" Your wife will become  a prostitute in the city, and yout sons and  daughters will fall by the sword. Your land will be measured and divided up. and you yourself will die in a pagan country, And Isrell will certainly go into exile. away from their native Israel.
