Third Vision: A Plumb Line

He showed me this: The Lord was standing there by a vertical wall with a plumb line in his hand. The Lord asked me, “What do you see, Amos?” (A)

I replied, “A plumb line.”

Then the Lord said, “I am setting a plumb line among my people Israel;(B) I will no longer spare them:(C)

Isaac’s high places(D) will be deserted,
and Israel’s sanctuaries will be in ruins;(E)
I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam
with a sword.”
