Amos 3:10-12

New Century Version

¹⁰ “The people don’t know how to do what is right,” says the Lord.
    “Their strong buildings are filled with treasures they took by force from others.”
¹¹     So this is what the Lord God says:
“An enemy will take over the land
    and pull down your strongholds;
    he will take the treasures out of your strong buildings.”

“A shepherd might save from a lion’s mouth
    only two leg bones or a scrap of an ear of his sheep.
In the same way only a few Israelites in Samaria will be saved—
    people who now sit on their beds
    and on their couches.”
