Amos 7:13-15

International Children’s Bible

¹³ But don’t prophesy anymore here at Bethel. This is King Jeroboam’s holy place. This is Israel’s temple.”

¹⁴ Then Amos answered Amaziah, “I do not make my living as a prophet. And I am not a member of a group of prophets. I make my living as a shepherd. And I take care of sycamore trees. ¹⁵ But the Lord took me away from tending the sheep. He said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people, the Israelites.’
