Amos 4:7-9
Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

7 I also have withholden the rain from you, when there were yet three months to the harvest: and I caused it to rain upon one city, and caused it not to rain upon another city: one piece was rained upon: and the piece whereupon I rained not, withered.

8 And two and three cities went to one city to drink water, and were not filled: yet you returned not to me, saith the Lord.

9 I struck you with a burning wind, and with mildew, the palmerworm hath eaten up your many gardens, and your vineyards: your olive groves, and fig groves: yet you returned not to me, saith the Lord.

Amos 4:7-9
New International Version

7 “I also withheld(A) rain from you
    when the harvest was still three months away.
I sent rain on one town,
    but withheld it from another.(B)
One field had rain;
    another had none and dried up.
8 People staggered from town to town for water(C)
    but did not get enough(D) to drink,
    yet you have not returned(E) to me,”
declares the Lord.(F)

9 “Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards,
    destroying them with blight and mildew.(G)
Locusts(H) devoured your fig and olive trees,(I)
    yet you have not returned(J) to me,”
declares the Lord.
