Amos 4:6-10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
God’s Discipline and Israel’s Apostasy
6 I gave you absolutely nothing to eat[a](A)
in all your cities,
a shortage of food in all your communities,
yet you did not return to Me.(B)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
7 I also withheld the rain from you(C)
while there were still three months until harvest.
I sent rain on one city
but no rain on another.(D)
One field received rain
while a field with no rain withered.(E)
8 Two or three cities staggered
to another city to drink water(F)
but were not satisfied,(G)
yet you did not return(H) to Me.
This is the Lord’s declaration.
9 I struck you with blight and mildew;(I)
the locust devoured(J)
your many gardens and vineyards,
your fig trees and olive trees,(K)
yet you did not return to Me.(L)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
10 I sent plagues like those of Egypt;(M)
I killed your young men with the sword,(N)
along with your captured horses.(O)
I caused the stench of your camp
to fill your nostrils,(P)
yet you did not return to Me.(Q)
This is the Lord’s declaration.
