Amos 3:2-4

Contemporary English Version

² Of all nations on earth,
you are the only one
    I have chosen.
That's why I will punish you
    because of your sins.

³ Can two people walk together
    without agreeing to meet?
⁴ Does a lion roar in the forest
unless it has caught
    a victim?
Does it growl in its den
    unless it is eating?
