Amos 4:6-11

New American Standard Bible

⁶ “But I gave you also ^(A)cleanness of teeth in all your cities,
And lack of bread in all your places;
Yet you have ^(B)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
⁷ “Furthermore, I ^(C)withheld the rain from you
While there were still three months until harvest.
Then I would send rain on one city,
But on ^(D)another city I would not send rain;
One part would be rained on,
While the part not rained on would dry up.
⁸ So the people of two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink ^(E)water,
But would ^(F)not be satisfied;
Yet you have ^(G)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
⁹ “I ^(H)struck you with scorching wind and mildew;
The ^(I)caterpillar was devouring
Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees;
Yet you have ^(J)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
¹⁰ “I sent a ^(K)plague among you ^[a]as in Egypt;
I ^(L)killed your young men with the sword, along with your ^(M)captured horses,
And I made the ^(N)stench of your camp rise up in your nostrils;
Yet you have ^(O)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
¹¹ “I overthrew you, as ^(P)God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
And you were like a ^(Q)log snatched from a fire;
Yet you have ^(R)not returned to Me,” declares the Lord.
