Amos 7:1-3

Easy-to-Read Version

The Vision of the Locusts

7 This is what the Lord God showed me: He was making locusts. This was at the time the second crop began to grow, after the king’s people had cut the first crop. ² Before the locusts could eat all the grass in the country, I said, “Lord God, I beg you, forgive us! Jacob cannot survive! He is too small!”

³ Then the Lord changed his mind about this. The Lord said, “It will not happen.”
