Amos 8:1-3
New King James Version
Vision of the Summer Fruit
8 Thus the Lord God showed me: Behold, a basket of summer fruit. 2 And He said, “Amos, what do you see?”
So I said, “A basket of summer fruit.”
Then the Lord said to me:
(A)“The end has come upon My people Israel;
(B)I will not pass by them anymore.
3 And (C)the songs of the temple
Shall be wailing in that day,”
Says the Lord God—
“Many dead bodies everywhere,
(D)They shall be thrown out in silence.”
Amos 8:1-3
Authorized (King James) Version
8 Thus hath the Lord God shewed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit. 2 And he said, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the Lord unto me,
The end is come upon my people of Israel;
I will not again pass by them any more.
3 And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day,
saith the Lord God:
there shall be many dead bodies in every place;
they shall cast them forth with silence.
