(Occurrence 0) there eat bread and prophesy
(Some words not found in UHB: and=he/it_said ʼAmaʦyāh to/towards ʼĀmōʦ seer go flee_away to/for=yourself(m) to/towards earth/land Yehuda and,earn there food/grain/bread and=there prophesy )
Here “eat bread” is an idiom that means to earn money or make a living for doing something. Alternate translation: “see if you can get the people there to pay you for prophesying” or “prophesy there and let them provide you with food”
7:12 Go on back to . . . Judah, and earn your living by prophesying: Amaziah assumed that the supposedly backward people of Judah would appreciate Amos’s words, and that Amos was looking to be paid for his preaching.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
