The Book of Amos 4

4 Listen to this word,

you cows of Bashan,

you who are in the mountain of Samaria,

you who oppress the poor,

you who crush the needy,

you who say to your husbands,

“Bring us drinks.”

2 The Lord Yahweh has sworn by his holiness saying,

“Behold, the days will come on you

when they will take you away with hooks,

the last of you with fishhooks.

3 You will go out through the breaks in the city wall,

each one going straight through,

and you will be thrown out toward Harmon—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.”

4 “Go to Bethel and sin,

to Gilgal and multiply sin,

bring your sacrifices every morning,

your tithes every three days.

5 Offer a thanksgiving sacrifice with bread;

proclaim freewill offerings; announce them,

for this pleases you,

you sons of Israel—

this is the declaration of the Lord Yahweh.

6 For I also gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities

and lack of bread in all your places.

Yet you have not returned to me—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.

7 I also withheld rain from you

when there were still three months to the harvest.

I caused it to rain on one city,

and caused it not to rain on another city.

One piece of land was rained on,

but the piece of land where he caused it not to rain on it dried up.

8 Two or three cities staggered to another city to drink water,

but were not satisfied.

Yet you have not returned to me—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.

9 I afflicted you with blight and mildew.

The multitude of your gardens,

your vineyards,

your fig trees,

and your olive trees—

the locusts devoured them all.

Yet you have not returned to me—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.

10 I sent a plague on you in the manner of Egypt.

I killed your young men with the sword,

carried away your horses,

and made the stench of your camp come up

to your nostrils.

Yet you have not returned to me—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.

11 I overthrew cities among you,

as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.

You were like a burning stick snatched out of the fire.

Yet you have not returned to me—

this is Yahweh’s declaration.

12 Therefore I will do something terrible to you, Israel;

and because I will do something terrible to you,

prepare to meet your God, Israel!

13 For, behold, he who forms the mountains

also creates the wind,

reveals his thoughts to mankind,

makes the morning darkness,

and treads on the high places of the earth.

Yahweh, God of hosts, is his name.”
