Amos 4:6-8

Holman Christian Standard Bible

God’s Discipline and Israel’s Apostasy

⁶I gave you absolutely nothing to eat^[a]^(A)
in all your cities,
a shortage of food in all your communities,
yet you did not return to Me.^(B)
This is the Lord’s declaration.

⁷I also withheld the rain from you^(C)
while there were still three months until harvest.
I sent rain on one city
but no rain on another.^(D)
One field received rain
while a field with no rain withered.^(E)
⁸Two or three cities staggered
to another city to drink water^(F)
but were not satisfied,^(G)
yet you did not return^(H) to Me.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
