Amos 7:13-15

Contemporary English Version

¹³ Don't do any more preaching at Bethel. The king worships here at our national temple.”

¹⁴ I answered:

I'm not a prophet! And I wasn't trained to be a prophet. I am a shepherd, and I take care of fig trees. ¹⁵ But the Lord told me to leave my herds and preach to the people of Israel.
