2And when the devouring the grass of the land was finished, I said: ”LORD OF LORDS, strengthen me! Who will raise up Yaqob, because he is small?”

3LORD JEHOVAH changed this, and it will not be

4Thus The Lord of Lords showed me and, behold, THE LORD of LORDS called to judge by fire and it consumed the great abyss, and it consumed half

5And I said: ”LORD OF LORDS, strengthen me! Who will raise up Yaqob, because he is small?”

6LORD JEHOVAH changed this, and it will not be

7Thus he showed me and behold LORD JEHOVAH stood on a wall of adamant, and in his hand an adamant

8And LORD JEHOVAH said to me: ’What have you seen Amos?’ And I said, ’an adamant.’ And LORD JEHOVAH said to me, ’behold, I am putting an adamant stone within my people Israel, and I shall pass through them no more!

9And the idol shrines of laughter shall be destroyed, and the holy places of Israel shall be wasted, and I shall stand against the house of Yorbaam with a sword

10And Amutsia the Priest of Bayth Eil sent to Yorbaam, King of Israel, and said to him: Amos has rebelled against you within the house of Israel, and the land cannot endure his words 11Because thus Amos said: ”Yorbaam will be killed with a sword and Israel will be stolen into captivity from his land!” 12And Amutsia said to Amos: ”Seer, escape! Go yourself to the land of Yehuda, and eat bread there, and prophesy there! 13And in Bayth Eil you shall not prophesy again, because it is the Holy Place of the King, and it is the house of the kingdom”

14And Amos answered and said to Amutsia: “I have not been a Prophet, neither a son of a Prophet, but I am a Shepherd and collector of wild figs 15And LORD JEHOVAH led me from behind the flock, and LORD JEHOVAH said to me: ’go prophesy against my people Israel’ 16Therefore, hear the word of LORD JEHOVAH: ”You have said, ‘you shall not prophesy against them of the house of Israel and you shall not teach them of the house of Isaaq!’ 17Because of this, thus says LORD JEHOVAH: ’your wife shall commit prostitution in your city and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land will be divided with a measuring line, and you shall die in the unclean land, and Israel will be stolen into captivity from his land!’
