Amos 7:1-3

International Children’s Bible

The Vision of Locusts

7 This is what the Lord God showed me: He was forming a swarm of locusts. This was after the king had taken his share of the first crop. The second crop had just begun growing. ² The locusts ate all the crops in the country. After that I said, “Lord God, forgive us, I beg you! No one in Israel could live through this. Israel is too small already!”

³ So the Lord felt sorry about this. “This will not happen,” said the Lord.
