A Famine for Hearing the Words of Yahweh

8 Thus Lord Yahweh showed me, and behold, there was a basket of summer fruit. ² And he said, “What do you see, Amos?” And ^(A)I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then Yahweh said to me, “The ^(B)end has come for My people Israel. I will ^(C)pass over them no longer. ³ And they will ^(D)wail with the ^(E)songs of the palace in that day,” declares Lord Yahweh. “Many will be the ^(F)corpses; in every place ^[a]they will cast them forth ^[b]in silence.”
