AM-4:1 Hear this word, ye kine of Bashan, that [are] in the
mountain of
Samaria, which oppress the poor, which crush the needy, which
say to their
masters, Bring, and let us drink.
AM-4:2 The Lord GOD hath sworn by his holiness, that, lo, the
days shall come
upon you, that he will take you away with hooks, and your
posterity with
fishhooks.
AM-4:3 And ye shall go out at the breaches, every [cow at that
which is]
before her; and ye shall cast [them] into the palace, saith the
LORD.
AM-4:4 Come to Bethel, and transgress; at Gilgal multiply
transgression; and
bring your sacrifices every morning, [and] your tithes after
three years:
AM-4:5 And offer a sacrifice of thanksgiving with leaven, and
proclaim [and]
publish the free offerings: for this liketh you, O ye children
of Israel,
saith the Lord GOD.
AM-4:6 And I also have given you cleanness of teeth in all your
cities, and
want of bread in all your places: yet have ye not returned unto
me, saith the
LORD.
AM-4:7 And also I have withholden the rain from you, when
[there were] yet
three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one
city, and caused
it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon, and
the piece
whereupon it rained not withered.
AM-4:8 So two [or] three cities wandered unto one city, to
drink water; but
they were not satisfied: yet have ye not returned unto me, saith
the LORD.
AM-4:9 I have smitten you with blasting and mildew: when your
gardens and
your vineyards and your fig trees and your olive trees increased,
the
palmerworm devoured [them]: yet have ye not returned unto me,
saith the LORD.
AM-4:10 I have sent among you the pestilence after the manner
of Egypt: your
young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your
horses; and I
have made the stink of your camps to come up unto your nostrils:
yet have ye
not returned unto me, saith the LORD.
AM-4:11 I have overthrown [some] of you, as God overthrew Sodom
and Gomorrah,
and ye were as a firebrand plucked out of the burning: yet have
ye not
returned unto me, saith the LORD.
AM-4:12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: [and]
because I will do
this unto thee, prepare to meet thy God, O Israel.
AM-4:13 For, lo, he that formeth the mountains, and createth
the wind, and
declareth unto man what [is] his thought, that maketh the
morning darkness,
and treadeth upon the high places of the earth, The LORD, The
God of hosts,
[is] his name.
