ylt@Amos:3:1 @Hear ye this word that Jehovah hath spoken concerning you, O sons of Israel, concerning all the family that I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:

ylt@Amos:3:2 @Only you I have known of all families of the land, Therefore I charge on you all your iniquities.

ylt@Amos:3:3 @Do two walk together if they have not met?

ylt@Amos:3:4 @Roar doth a lion in a forest and prey he hath none? Give out doth a young lion his voice from his habitation, If he hath not caught?

ylt@Amos:3:5 @Doth a bird fall into a snare of the earth, And there is no gin for it? Doth a snare go up from the ground, And prey it captureth not?

ylt@Amos:3:6 @Is a trumpet blown in a city, And do people not tremble? Is there affliction in a city, And Jehovah hath not done [it]?

ylt@Amos:3:7 @For the Lord Jehovah doth nothing, Except He hath revealed His counsel unto His servants the prophets.

ylt@Amos:3:8 @A lion hath roared -- who doth not fear? The Lord Jehovah hath spoken -- who doth not prophesy?

ylt@Amos:3:9 @Sound ye unto palaces in Ashdod, And to palaces in the land of Egypt, and say: Be ye gathered on mountains of Samaria, And see many troubles within her, And oppressed ones in her midst.

ylt@Amos:3:10 @And they have not known to act straightforwardly, An affirmation of Jehovah, Who are treasuring up violence and spoil in their palaces.

ylt@Amos:3:11 @Therefore, thus said the Lord Jehovah: An adversary -- and surrounding the land, And he hath brought down from thee thy strength, And spoiled have been thy palaces.

ylt@Amos:3:12 @Thus said Jehovah: As the shepherd delivereth from the lion's mouth Two legs, or a piece of an ear, So delivered are the sons of Israel, Who are sitting in Samaria on the corner of a bed, And in Damascus [on that of] a couch.

ylt@Amos:3:13 @Hear ye and testify to the house of Jacob, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, God of Hosts.

ylt@Amos:3:14 @For in the day of My charging the transgressions of Israel on him, I have laid a charge on the altars of Beth-El, And cut off have been the horns of the altar, And they have fallen to the earth.

ylt@Amos:3:15 @And I have smitten the winter-house with the summer-house, And perished have houses of ivory, And consumed have been many houses, An affirmation of Jehovah!
