Amos 3:10-12

Modern English Version

¹⁰ They do not know how to do right, says the Lord,
    storing up violence and destruction in their fortresses.

An enemy will surround your land;
    he will tear down your defenses,
    and your fortresses will be plundered.

As the shepherd rescues out of the mouth of the lion
    a pair of legs or a piece of an ear,
    so will the children of Israel be rescued,
those who live in Samaria,
    with the corner of a bed
    or a piece of a couch.
