Amos 7:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ But the Lord took me away from herding the flock and said to me, ‘Prophesy to my people Israel.’

¹⁶ “Now listen to the Lord’s word: You said, ‘Stop prophesying against Israel, and stop preaching against the descendants of Isaac.’

¹⁷ “However, this is what the Lord says: Your wife will become a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will be killed with swords. Your land will be surveyed and divided up, and you will die in an unclean ^[a] land. Israel cannot avoid being taken from its land into exile.”
