Amos 4:10-12
1599 Geneva Bible
10 Pestilence have I sent among you after the manner of [a]Egypt: your young men have I slain with the sword, and have taken away your horses: and I have made the stink of your tents to come up even into your nostrils, yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.
11 I have overthrown you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah: and ye were as a [b]firebrand plucked out of the burning, yet have ye not returned unto me, saith the Lord.
12 Therefore thus will I do unto thee, O Israel: and because I will do thus unto thee, prepare to [c]meet thy God, O Israel.

as I did to Egypt.(B)

yet you have not returned to me,”(E)
declares the Lord.(F)

as I overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah.(G)
You were like a burning stick(H) snatched from the fire,
yet you have not returned to me,”

and because I will do this to you, Israel,
prepare to meet your God.”
