Amos 6:1-3

International Children’s Bible

6 How terrible it will be for you who have it easy in Jerusalem.
    How terrible for you who live on Mount Samaria and feel safe.
You think you are important people of the best nation in the world.
    The Israelites come to you for help.
² Go look at the city of Calneh.
    From there go to the great city Hamath.
    Go down to Gath of the Philistines.
Are you better than these kingdoms?
Are their lands larger than yours?
³ You put off the day of punishment.
    But you bring near the day when you can do evil to others.
