Amos 3:8-10

Contemporary English Version

⁸ Everyone is terrified
    when a lion roars—
and ordinary people
become prophets
    when the Lord God speaks.

⁹ Here is a message
for the leaders
    of Philistia^[a] and Egypt—
tell everyone to come together
    on the hills of Samaria.
Let them see the injustice
and the lawlessness
    in that city.
¹⁰ The Lord has said
that they don't even know how
    to do right.
They have become rich
    from violence and robbery.
