11 Therefore thus says the Lord God:
(A)“An adversary shall surround the land
and bring down[a] your defenses from you,
and (B)your strongholds shall be plundered.”
12 Thus says the Lord: (C)“As the shepherd rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear, (D)so shall the people of Israel (E)who dwell in Samaria be rescued, with the corner of a couch and part[b] of a bed.

Amos 3:11-13
New International Version
11 Therefore this is what the Sovereign Lord says:
“An enemy will overrun your land,
pull down your strongholds
and plunder your fortresses.(A)”
12 This is what the Lord says:
“As a shepherd rescues from the lion’s(B) mouth
only two leg bones or a piece of an ear,
so will the Israelites living in Samaria be rescued,
with only the head of a bed
and a piece of fabric[a] from a couch.[b](C)”
13 “Hear this and testify(D) against the descendants of Jacob,” declares the Lord, the Lord God Almighty.
