Amos 5:1-3
Authorized (King James) Version
5 Hear ye this word which I take up against you,
even a lamentation, O house of Israel.
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen;
she shall no more rise:
she is forsaken upon her land;
there is none to raise her up.
3 For thus saith the Lord God;
The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred,
and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten,
to the house of Israel.
Amos 5:1-3

5 Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel:
2 The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise. She is forsaken upon her land; there is none to raise her up.
3 For thus saith the Lord God: “The city that went out by a thousand shall be left a hundred, and that which went forth by a hundred shall be left ten to the house of Israel.”
