The arguing of Israelis

Amos 4:4–13

4“Go to the worship centre at Beyt-El and sin,

to the one at Gilgal and multiply sin.

Bring your sacrifices every morning,

your tithes every three days.

5Offer a thanksgiving sacrifice with bread.

Proclaim freewill offerings.

Announce them,

because that pleases you, you Israelis.

That’s my master Yahweh’s declaration.

6I also gave you empty stomachs in all your cities

and lack of bread in all your places.

Yet you all haven’t returned to me.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

7I also withheld rain from you

when there were still three months to the harvest.

I made it rain on one city,

and didn’t send rain to some another city.

One piece of land was rained on,

but the piece of land where he didn’t send rain, dried up.

8People from two or three cities staggered to another city to drink water,

but still weren’t able to get enough.

Yet you all haven’t returned to me.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

9I ruined your crops with blight and mildew.

The multitude of your gardens and your vineyards,

your fig trees and your olive trees,

were all devastated by the locusts.

Yet you all haven’t returned to me.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

10I sent a plague on you similar to what I did in Egypt (Heb. Mitsrayim).

I killed your young men with the sword, carried away your horses,

and made the stench of your camp reach your noses.

Yet you all haven’t returned to me.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

11I overthrew cities among you, just like when God overthrew Sodom and Amorah (Gomorrah).[ref]

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

Yet you all haven’t returned to me.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

12Therefore I’ll do something terrible to you, Yisrael,

and because I’ll do something terrible to you,

prepare to meet your God, Yisrael.

13Now listen. He who formed the mountains and created the wind

reveals his thoughts to humanity,

makes the morning darkness,

and walks around the highest places in this world.

Army commander God, Yahweh, is his name.”
