Amos 7:7-13

Rotherham(i) 7 Here, he gave me to see, and lo! My Lord, stationed upon a pinnacle,––and, in his hand a plummet. 8 And Yahweh said unto me, What canst thou see, Amos? And I said, A plummet,––Then said My Lord, Behold me! fixing a plummet in the midst of my people Israel, I will not again any more forgive him. 9 So shall the high places of Isaac, be made desolate, and, the holy places of Israel, be laid waste,––and I will rise up, against the house of Jeroboam, with the sword.
10 Then sent Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, unto Jeroboam king of Israel, saying: A conspiracy hath Amos, raised against thee, in the midst of the house of Israel, The land, is not able to endure, all his words; 11 For, thus, saith Amos, By the sword, shall Jeroboam, die,––and, Israel, shall, surely be exiled, from off his own soil. 12 Then said Amaziah unto Amos, O seer, go flee thee away unto the land of Judah––and eat, there, bread, and, there, mayest thou prophesy; 13 But, at Bethel, not again, any more, mayest thou prophesy,––for, the holy place of the king, it is, and, the house of the kingdom, it is.
