Amos 7:1-6

New Life Version

Special Dream about Locusts

7 This is what the Lord God showed me: He was making a gathering of locusts when the spring grain began to grow. The spring grain was after the king’s share had been cut. ² When they had finished eating the grass I said, “Lord God, forgive! O that Jacob may stay alive for he is so small!” ³ So the Lord changed His mind about this. “It will not be,” said the Lord.

Special Dream about Fire

⁴ This is what the Lord God showed me: The Lord God was calling for a punishment by fire. It dried up the deep waters and began to destroy the farm land. ⁵ Then I said, “Lord God, I beg You to stop! How can Jacob stay alive, for he is so small?” ⁶ So the Lord changed His mind about this. “This also will not be,” said the Lord God.
