Amos 4:7-9
Living Bible
7 I ruined your crops by holding back the rain three months before the harvest. I sent rain on one city but not another. While rain fell on one field, another was dry and withered. 8 People from two or three cities would make their weary journey for a drink of water to a city that had rain, but there wasn’t ever enough. Yet you wouldn’t return to me,” says the Lord.
9 “I sent blight and mildew on your farms and your vineyards; the locusts ate your figs and olive trees. And still you wouldn’t return to me,” says 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)
