[1]Thus hath the LordH136 GODH3069 shewedH7200[H8689] unto me: and behold a basketH3619 of summer fruitH7019.
[2]And he saidH559[H8799], AmosH5986, what seestH7200[H8802] thou? And I saidH559[H8799], A basketH3619 of summer fruitH7019. Then saidH559[H8799] the LORDH3068 unto me, The endH7093 is comeH935[H8804] upon my peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478; I will not againH3254[H8686] passH5674 by them any moreH8800.
[3]And the songsH7892 of the templeH1964 shall be howlingsH3213[H8689] in that dayH3117, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069: there shall be manyH7227 dead bodiesH6297 in every placeH4725; they shall cast them forthH7993[H8689] with silenceH2013.[H8761]
[4]HearH8085[H8798] this, O ye that swallow upH7602[H8802] the needyH34, even to makeH7673 the poorH6041[H8675][H6035] of the landH776 H7673to failH8687
[5]SayingH559[H8800], When will the new moonH2320 be goneH5674[H8799], that we may sellH7666[H8686] cornH7668? and the sabbathH7676, that we may set forthH6605[H8799] wheatH1250, making the ephahH374 smallH6994[H8687], and the shekelH8255 greatH1431[H8687], and falsifyingH5791[H8763] the balancesH3976 by deceitH4820?
[6]That we may buyH7069[H8800] the poorH1800 for silverH3701, and the needyH34 for a pair of shoesH5275; yea, and sellH7666[H8686] the refuseH4651 of the wheatH1250?
[7]The LORDH3068 hath swornH7650[H8738] by the excellencyH1347 of JacobH3290, Surely I will neverH5331 forgetH7911[H8799] any of their worksH4639.
[8]Shall not the landH776 trembleH7264[H8799] for this, and every one mournH56[H8804] that dwellethH3427[H8802] therein? and it shall rise upH5927[H8804] wholly as a floodH2975; and it shall be cast outH1644[H8738] and drownedH8257[H8738][H8675][H8248][H8738], as by the floodH216 of EgyptH4714.
[9]And it shall come to pass in that dayH3117, saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069, that I will cause the sunH8121 to go downH935[H8689] at noonH6672, and I will darkenH2821[H8689] the earthH776 in the clearH216 dayH3117:
[10]And I will turnH2015[H8804] your feastsH2282 into mourningH60, and all your songsH7892 into lamentationH7015; and I will bring upH5927[H8689] sackclothH8242 upon all loinsH4975, and baldnessH7144 upon every headH7218; and I will makeH7760[H8804] it as the mourningH60 of an onlyH3173 son, and the endH319 thereof as a bitterH4751 dayH3117.
[11]Behold, the daysH3117 comeH935[H8802], saithH5002[H8803] the LordH136 GODH3069, that I will sendH7971[H8689] a famineH7458 in the landH776, not a famineH7458 of breadH3899, nor a thirstH6772 for waterH4325, but of hearingH8085[H8800] the wordsH1697 of the LORDH3068:
[12]And they shall wanderH5128[H8804] from seaH3220 to seaH3220, and from the northH6828 even to the eastH4217, they shall run to and froH7751[H8787] to seekH1245[H8763] the wordH1697 of the LORDH3068, and shall not findH4672 itH8799.
[13]In that dayH3117 shall the fairH3303 virginsH1330 and young menH970 faintH5968[H8691] for thirstH6772.
[14]They that swearH7650[H8737] by the sinH819 of SamariaH8111, and sayH559[H8804], Thy godH430, O DanH1835, livethH2416; and, The mannerH1870 of BeershebaH884 livethH2416; even they shall fallH5307[H8804], and never rise upH6965 againH8799.
