nasb@Hosea:1:1 @The word of the LORD which came to Hosea the son of Beeri, during the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and during the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.

nasb@Hosea:1:10 @Yet the number of the sons of Israel Will be like the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered; And in the place Where it is said to them, "You are not My people," It will be said to them, "You are the sons of the living God."

nasb@Hosea:2:1 @And the sons of Judah and the sons of Israel will be gathered together, And they will appoint for themselves one leader, And they will go up from the land, For great will be the day of Jezreel.

nasb@Hosea:2:2" @Contend with your mother, contend, For she is not my wife, and I am not her husband; And let her put away her harlotry from her face And her adultery from between her breasts,

nasb@Hosea:2:4" @Also, I will have no compassion on her children, Because they are children of harlotry.

nasb@Hosea:2:6" @Therefore, behold, I will hedge up her way with thorns, And I will build a wall against her so that she cannot find her paths.

nasb@Hosea:2:7" @She will pursue her lovers, but she will not overtake them; And she will seek them, but will not find them. Then she will say, ' I will go back to my first husband, For it was better for me then than now!'

nasb@Hosea:2:12" @I will destroy her vines and fig trees, Of which she said, 'These are my wages Which my lovers have given me.' And I will make them a forest, And the beasts of the field will devour them.

nasb@Hosea:2:14" @Therefore, behold, I will allure her, Bring her into the wilderness And speak kindly to her.

nasb@Hosea:2:17" @For I will remove the names of the Baals from her mouth, So that they will be mentioned by their names no more.

nasb@Hosea:2:18" @In that day I will also make a covenant for them With the beasts of the field, The birds of the sky And the creeping things of the ground. And I will abolish the bow, the sword and war from the land, And will make them lie down in safety.

nasb@Hosea:2:19" @I will betroth you to Me forever; Yes, I will betroth you to Me in righteousness and in justice, In lovingkindness and in compassion,

nasb@Hosea:2:20 @And I will betroth you to Me in faithfulness. Then you will know the LORD.

nasb@Hosea:3:3 @Then I said to her, "You shall stay with me for many days. You shall not play the harlot, nor shall you have a man; so I will also be toward you."

nasb@Hosea:4:1 @Listen to the word of the LORD, O sons of Israel, For the LORD has a case against the inhabitants of the land, Because there is no faithfulness or kindness Or knowledge of God in the land.

nasb@Hosea:4:3 @Therefore the land mourns, And everyone who lives in it languishes Along with the beasts of the field and the birds of the sky, And also the fish of the sea disappear.

nasb@Hosea:4:6 @My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children.

nasb@Hosea:4:9 @And it will be, like people, like priest; So I will punish them for their ways And repay them for their deeds.

nasb@Hosea:4:10 @They will eat, but not have enough; They will play the harlot, but not increase, Because they have stopped giving heed to the LORD.

nasb@Hosea:4:13 @They offer sacrifices on the tops of the mountains And burn incense on the hills, Under oak, poplar and terebinth, Because their shade is pleasant. Therefore your daughters play the harlot And your brides commit adultery.

nasb@Hosea:4:15 @Though you, Israel, play the harlot, Do not let Judah become guilty; Also do not go to Gilgal, Or go up to Beth-aven And take the oath- "As the LORD lives!"

nasb@Hosea:4:19 @The wind wraps them in its wings, And they will be ashamed because of their sacrifices.

nasb@Hosea:5:1 @Hear this, O priests! Give heed, O house of Israel! Listen, O house of the king! For the judgment applies to you, For you have been a snare at Mizpah And a net spread out on Tabor.

nasb@Hosea:5:8 @Blow the horn in Gibeah, The trumpet in Ramah. Sound an alarm at Beth-aven- " Behind you, Benjamin!"

nasb@Hosea:5:9 @Ephraim will become a desolation in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel I declare what is sure.

nasb@Hosea:5:10 @The princes of Judah have become like those who move a boundary; On them I will pour out My wrath like water.

nasb@Hosea:5:11 @Ephraim is oppressed, crushed in judgment, Because he was determined to follow man's command.

nasb@Hosea:5:14 @For I will be like a lion to Ephraim And like a young lion to the house of Judah. I, even I, will tear to pieces and go away, I will carry away, and there will be none to deliver.

nasb@Hosea:5:2" @He will revive us after two days; He will raise us up on the third day, That we may live before Him.

nasb@Hosea:6:2 @And they do not consider in their hearts That I remember all their wickedness. Now their deeds are all around them; They are before My face.

nasb@Hosea:6:5 @On the day of our king, the princes became sick with the heat of wine; He stretched out his hand with scoffers,

nasb@Hosea:6:8 @Ephraim mixes himself with the nations; Ephraim has become a cake not turned.

nasb@Hosea:6:11 @So Ephraim has become like a silly dove, without sense; They call to Egypt, they go to Assyria.

nasb@Hosea:6:13 @Woe to them, for they have strayed from Me! Destruction is theirs, for they have rebelled against Me! I would redeem them, but they speak lies against Me.

nasb@Hosea:6:14 @And they do not cry to Me from their heart When they wail on their beds; For the sake of grain and new wine they assemble themselves, They turn away from Me.

nasb@Hosea:6:16 @They turn, but not upward, They are like a deceitful bow; Their princes will fall by the sword Because of the insolence of their tongue. This will be their derision in the land of Egypt.

nasb@Hosea:7:1 @Put the trumpet to your lips! Like an eagle the enemy comes against the house of the LORD, Because they have transgressed My covenant And rebelled against My law.

nasb@Hosea:7:4 @They have set up kings, but not by Me; They have appointed princes, but I did not know it. With their silver and gold they have made idols for themselves, That they might be cut off.

nasb@Hosea:7:5 @He has rejected your calf, O Samaria, saying, "My anger burns against them!" How long will they be incapable of innocence?

nasb@Hosea:7:6 @For from Israel is even this! A craftsman made it, so it is not God; Surely the calf of Samaria will be broken to pieces.

nasb@Hosea:7:10 @Even though they hire allies among the nations, Now I will gather them up; And they will begin to diminish Because of the burden of the king of princes.

nasb@Hosea:7:11 @Since Ephraim has multiplied altars for sin, They have become altars of sinning for him.

nasb@Hosea:7:13 @As for My sacrificial gifts, They sacrifice the flesh and eat it, But the LORD has taken no delight in them. Now He will remember their iniquity, And punish them for their sins; They will return to Egypt.

nasb@Hosea:8:4 @They will not pour out drink offerings of wine to the LORD, Their sacrifices will not please Him. Their bread will be like mourners' bread; All who eat of it will be defiled, For their bread will be for themselves alone; It will not enter the house of the LORD.

nasb@Hosea:8:6 @For behold, they will go because of destruction; Egypt will gather them up, Memphis will bury them. Weeds will take over their treasures of silver; Thorns will be in their tents.

nasb@Hosea:8:7 @The days of punishment have come, The days of retribution have come; Let Israel know this! The prophet is a fool, The inspired man is demented, Because of the grossness of your iniquity, And because your hostility is so great.

nasb@Hosea:8:9 @They have gone deep in depravity As in the days of Gibeah; He will remember their iniquity, He will punish their sins.

nasb@Hosea:8:10 @I found Israel like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your forefathers as the earliest fruit on the fig tree in its first season. But they came to Baal-peor and devoted themselves to shame, And they became as detestable as that which they loved.

nasb@Hosea:8:12 @Though they bring up their children, Yet I will bereave them until not a man is left. Yes, woe to them indeed when I depart from them!

nasb@Hosea:8:15 @All their evil is at Gilgal; Indeed, I came to hate them there! Because of the wickedness of their deeds I will drive them out of My house! I will love them no more; All their princes are rebels.

nasb@Hosea:8:16 @Ephraim is stricken, their root is dried up, They will bear no fruit. Even though they bear children, I will slay the precious ones of their womb.

nasb@Hosea:8:17 @My God will cast them away Because they have not listened to Him; And they will be wanderers among the nations.

nasb@Hosea:9:1 @Israel is a luxuriant vine; He produces fruit for himself. The more his fruit, The more altars he made; The richer his land, The better he made the sacred pillars.

nasb@Hosea:9:2 @Their heart is faithless; Now they must bear their guilt. The LORD will break down their altars And destroy their sacred pillars.

nasb@Hosea:9:5 @The inhabitants of Samaria will fear For the calf of Beth-aven. Indeed, its people will mourn for it, And its idolatrous priests will cry out over it, Over its glory, since it has departed from it.

nasb@Hosea:9:6 @The thing itself will be carried to Assyria As tribute to King Jareb; Ephraim will be seized with shame And Israel will be ashamed of its own counsel.

nasb@Hosea:9:7 @Samaria will be cut off with her king Like a stick on the surface of the water.

nasb@Hosea:9:8 @Also the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, will be destroyed; Thorn and thistle will grow on their altars; Then they will say to the mountains, "Cover us!" And to the hills, "Fall on us!"

nasb@Hosea:9:9 @From the days of Gibeah you have sinned, O Israel; There they stand! Will not the battle against the sons of iniquity overtake them in Gibeah?

nasb@Hosea:9:10 @When it is My desire, I will chastise them; And the peoples will be gathered against them When they are bound for their double guilt.

nasb@Hosea:9:13 @You have plowed wickedness, you have reaped injustice, You have eaten the fruit of lies. Because you have trusted in your way, in your numerous warriors,

nasb@Hosea:9:14 @Therefore a tumult will arise among your people, And all your fortresses will be destroyed, As Shalman destroyed Beth-arbel on the day of battle, When mothers were dashed in pieces with their children.

nasb@Hosea:9:15 @Thus it will be done to you at Bethel because of your great wickedness. At dawn the king of Israel will be completely cut off.

nasb@Hosea:10:4 @I led them with cords of a man, with bonds of love, And I became to them as one who lifts the yoke from their jaws; And I bent down and fed them.

nasb@Hosea:10:5 @They will not return to the land of Egypt; But Assyria--he will be their king Because they refused to return to Me.

nasb@Hosea:10:6 @The sword will whirl against their cities, And will demolish their gate bars And consume them because of their counsels.

nasb@Hosea:10:7 @So My people are bent on turning from Me. Though they call them to the One on high, None at all exalts Him.

nasb@Hosea:11:4 @Yes, he wrestled with the angel and prevailed; He wept and sought His favor. He found Him at Bethel And there He spoke with us,

nasb@Hosea:11:8 @And Ephraim said, "Surely I have become rich, I have found wealth for myself; In all my labors they will find in me No iniquity, which would be sin."

nasb@Hosea:11:9 @But I have been the LORD your God since the land of Egypt; I will make you live in tents again, As in the days of the appointed festival.

nasb@Hosea:11:11 @Is there iniquity in Gilead? Surely they are worthless. In Gilgal they sacrifice bulls, Yes, their altars are like the stone heaps Beside the furrows of the field.

nasb@Hosea:12:3 @Therefore they will be like the morning cloud And like dew which soon disappears, Like chaff which is blown away from the threshing floor And like smoke from a chimney.

nasb@Hosea:12:4 @Yet I have been the LORD your God Since the land of Egypt; And you were not to know any god except Me, For there is no savior besides Me.

nasb@Hosea:12:6 @As they had their pasture, they became satisfied, And being satisfied, their heart became proud; Therefore they forgot Me.

nasb@Hosea:12:7 @So I will be like a lion to them; Like a leopard I will lie in wait by the wayside.

nasb@Hosea:12:8 @I will encounter them like a bear robbed of her cubs, And I will tear open their chests; There I will also devour them like a lioness, As a wild beast would tear them.

nasb@Hosea:12:14 @Shall I ransom them from the power of Sheol? Shall I redeem them from death? O Death, where are your thorns? O Sheol, where is your sting? Compassion will be hidden from My sight.

nasb@Hosea:12:15 @Though he flourishes among the reeds, An east wind will come, The wind of the LORD coming up from the wilderness; And his fountain will become dry And his spring will be dried up; It will plunder his treasury of every precious article.

nasb@Hosea:12:16 @Samaria will be held guilty, For she has rebelled against her God. They will fall by the sword, Their little ones will be dashed in pieces, And their pregnant women will be ripped open.

nasb@Hosea:13:1 @Return, O Israel, to the LORD your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity.

nasb@Hosea:13:5 @I will be like the dew to Israel; He will blossom like the lily, And he will take root like the cedars of Lebanon.

nasb@Hosea:13:6 @His shoots will sprout, And his beauty will be like the olive tree And his fragrance like the cedars of Lebanon.

nasb@Hosea:13:7 @Those who live in his shadow Will again raise grain, And they will blossom like the vine. His renown will be like the wine of Lebanon.

nasb@Joel:1:6 @For a nation has invaded my land, Mighty and without number; Its teeth are the teeth of a lion, And it has the fangs of a lioness.

nasb@Joel:1:7 @It has made my vine a waste And my fig tree splinters. It has stripped them bare and cast them away; Their branches have become white.

nasb@Joel:1:11 @Be ashamed, O farmers, Wail, O vinedressers, For the wheat and the barley; Because the harvest of the field is destroyed.

nasb@Joel:1:16 @Has not food been cut off before our eyes, Gladness and joy from the house of our God?

nasb@Joel:1:18 @How the beasts groan! The herds of cattle wander aimlessly Because there is no pasture for them; Even the flocks of sheep suffer.

nasb@Joel:1:20 @Even the beasts of the field pant for You; For the water brooks are dried up And fire has devoured the pastures of the wilderness.

nasb@Joel:2:2 @A day of darkness and gloom, A day of clouds and thick darkness. As the dawn is spread over the mountains, So there is a great and mighty people; There has never been anything like it, Nor will there be again after it To the years of many generations.

nasb@Joel:2:3 @A fire consumes before them And behind them a flame burns. The land is like the garden of Eden before them But a desolate wilderness behind them, And nothing at all escapes them.

nasb@Joel:2:6 @Before them the people are in anguish; All faces turn pale.

nasb@Joel:2:10 @Before them the earth quakes, The heavens tremble, The sun and the moon grow dark And the stars lose their brightness.

nasb@Joel:2:11 @The LORD utters His voice before His army; Surely His camp is very great, For strong is he who carries out His word. The day of the LORD is indeed great and very awesome, And who can endure it?

nasb@Joel:2:14 @Who knows whether He will not turn and relent And leave a blessing behind Him, Even a grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God?

nasb@Joel:2:16 @Gather the people, sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and the nursing infants. Let the bridegroom come out of his room And the bride out of her bridal chamber.

nasb@Joel:2:17 @Let the priests, the LORD'S ministers, Weep between the porch and the altar, And let them say, " Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not make Your inheritance a reproach, A byword among the nations. Why should they among the peoples say, ' Where is their God?'"

nasb@Joel:2:18 @Then the LORD will be zealous for His land And will have pity on His people.

nasb@Joel:2:19 @The LORD will answer and say to His people, "Behold, I am going to send you grain, new wine and oil, And you will be satisfied in full with them; And I will never again make you a reproach among the nations.

nasb@Joel:2:21 @Do not fear, O land, rejoice and be glad, For the LORD has done great things.

nasb@Joel:2:22 @Do not fear, beasts of the field, For the pastures of the wilderness have turned green, For the tree has borne its fruit, The fig tree and the vine have yielded in full.

nasb@Joel:2:23 @So rejoice, O sons of Zion, And be glad in the LORD your God; For He has given you the early rain for your vindication. And He has poured down for you the rain, The early and latter rain as before.

nasb@Joel:2:24 @The threshing floors will be full of grain, And the vats will overflow with the new wine and oil.

nasb@Joel:2:26" @You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied And praise the name of the LORD your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; Then My people will never be put to shame.

nasb@Joel:2:27" @Thus you will know that I am in the midst of Israel, And that I am the LORD your God, And there is no other; And My people will never be put to shame.

nasb@Joel:2:31" @The sun will be turned into darkness And the moon into blood Before the great and awesome day of the LORD comes.

nasb@Joel:2:32" @And it will come about that whoever calls on the name of the LORD Will be delivered; For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem There will be those who escape, As the LORD has said, Even among the survivors whom the LORD calls.

nasb@Joel:3:1" @For behold, in those days and at that time, When I restore the fortunes of Judah and Jerusalem,

nasb@Joel:3:2 @I will gather all the nations And bring them down to the valley of Jehoshaphat. Then I will enter into judgment with them there On behalf of My people and My inheritance, Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; And they have divided up My land.

nasb@Joel:3:7 @behold, I am going to arouse them from the place where you have sold them, and return your recompense on your head.

nasb@Joel:3:8" @Also I will sell your sons and your daughters into the hand of the sons of Judah, and they will sell them to the Sabeans, to a distant nation," for the LORD has spoken.

nasb@Joel:3:10 @Beat your plowshares into swords And your pruning hooks into spears; Let the weak say, "I am a mighty man."

nasb@Joel:3:12 @Let the nations be aroused And come up to the valley of Jehoshaphat, For there I will sit to judge All the surrounding nations.

nasb@Joel:3:17 @Then you will know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion, My holy mountain. So Jerusalem will be holy, And strangers will pass through it no more.

nasb@Joel:3:19 @Egypt will become a waste, And Edom will become a desolate wilderness, Because of the violence done to the sons of Judah, In whose land they have shed innocent blood.

nasb@Joel:3:20 @But Judah will be inhabited forever And Jerusalem for all generations.

nasb@Amos:1:1 @The words of Amos, who was among the sheepherders from Tekoa, which he envisioned in visions concerning Israel in the days of Uzziah king of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam son of Joash, king of Israel, two years before the earthquake.

nasb@Amos:1:3 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Damascus and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they threshed Gilead with implements of sharp iron.

nasb@Amos:1:4" @So I will send fire upon the house of Hazael And it will consume the citadels of Ben-hadad.

nasb@Amos:1:5" @I will also break the gate bar of Damascus, And cut off the inhabitant from the valley of Aven, And him who holds the scepter, from Beth-eden; So the people of Aram will go exiled to Kir," Says the LORD.

nasb@Amos:1:6 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Gaza and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they deported an entire population To deliver it up to Edom.

nasb@Amos:1:9 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Tyre and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they delivered up an entire population to Edom And did not remember the covenant of brotherhood.

nasb@Amos:1:11 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Edom and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because he pursued his brother with the sword, While he stifled his compassion; His anger also tore continually, And he maintained his fury forever.

nasb@Amos:1:13 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of the sons of Ammon and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they ripped open the pregnant women of Gilead In order to enlarge their borders.

nasb@Amos:2:2 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Moab and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because he burned the bones of the king of Edom to lime.

nasb@Amos:2:4 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Judah and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they rejected the law of the LORD And have not kept His statutes; Their lies also have led them astray, Those after which their fathers walked.

nasb@Amos:2:6 @Thus says the LORD, "For three transgressions of Israel and for four I will not revoke its punishment, Because they sell the righteous for money And the needy for a pair of sandals.

nasb@Amos:2:8" @On garments taken as pledges they stretch out beside every altar, And in the house of their God they drink the wine of those who have been fined.

nasb@Amos:2:9" @Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, Though his height was like the height of cedars And he was strong as the oaks; I even destroyed his fruit above and his root below.

nasb@Amos:2:11" @Then I raised up some of your sons to be prophets And some of your young men to be Nazirites. Is this not so, O sons of Israel?" declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:2:13" @Behold, I am weighted down beneath you As a wagon is weighted down when filled with sheaves.

nasb@Amos:2:11 @Therefore, thus says the Lord GOD, "An enemy, even one surrounding the land, Will pull down your strength from you And your citadels will be looted."

nasb@Amos:2:12 @Thus says the LORD, "Just as the shepherd snatches from the lion's mouth a couple of legs or a piece of an ear, So will the sons of Israel dwelling in Samaria be snatched away-- With the corner of a bed and the cover of a couch!

nasb@Amos:2:14" @For on the day that I punish Israel's transgressions, I will also punish the altars of Bethel; The horns of the altar will be cut off And they will fall to the ground.

nasb@Amos:3:2 @The Lord GOD has sworn by His holiness, "Behold, the days are coming upon you When they will take you away with meat hooks, And the last of you with fish hooks.

nasb@Amos:3:3" @You will go out through breaches in the walls, Each one straight before her, And you will be cast to Harmon," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:4" @Enter Bethel and transgress; In Gilgal multiply transgression! Bring your sacrifices every morning, Your tithes every three days.

nasb@Amos:3:7" @Furthermore, I withheld the rain from you While there were still three months until harvest. Then I would send rain on one city And on another city I would not send rain; One part would be rained on, While the part not rained on would dry up.

nasb@Amos:3:8" @So two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink water, But would not be satisfied; Yet you have not returned to Me," declares the LORD.

nasb@Amos:3:12" @Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel; Because I will do this to you, Prepare to meet your God, O Israel."

nasb@Amos:3:13 @For behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind And declares to man what are His thoughts, He who makes dawn into darkness And treads on the high places of the earth, The LORD God of hosts is His name.

nasb@Amos:4:5" @But do not resort to Bethel And do not come to Gilgal, Nor cross over to Beersheba; For Gilgal will certainly go into captivity And Bethel will come to trouble.

nasb@Amos:4:6" @ Seek the LORD that you may live, Or He will break forth like a fire, O house of Joseph, And it will consume with none to quench it for Bethel,

nasb@Amos:4:11 @Therefore because you impose heavy rent on the poor And exact a tribute of grain from them, Though you have built houses of well-hewn stone, Yet you will not live in them; You have planted pleasant vineyards, yet you will not drink their wine.

nasb@Amos:4:12 @For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are great, You who distress the righteous and accept bribes And turn aside the poor in the gate.

nasb@Amos:4:14 @Seek good and not evil, that you may live; And thus may the LORD God of hosts be with you, Just as you have said!

nasb@Amos:4:15 @Hate evil, love good, And establish justice in the gate! Perhaps the LORD God of hosts May be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.

nasb@Amos:4:17" @And in all the vineyards there is wailing, Because I will pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.

nasb@Amos:4:18 @Alas, you who are longing for the day of the LORD, For what purpose will the day of the LORD be to you? It will be darkness and not light;

nasb@Amos:4:19 @As when a man flees from a lion And a bear meets him, Or goes home, leans his hand against the wall And a snake bites him.

nasb@Amos:4:20 @Will not the day of the LORD be darkness instead of light, Even gloom with no brightness in it?

nasb@Amos:4:27" @Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond Damascus," says the LORD, whose name is the God of hosts.

nasb@Amos:5:2 @Go over to Calneh and look, And go from there to Hamath the great, Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms, Or is their territory greater than yours?

nasb@Amos:5:4 @Those who recline on beds of ivory And sprawl on their couches, And eat lambs from the flock And calves from the midst of the stall,

nasb@Amos:5:9 @And it will be, if ten men are left in one house, they will die.

nasb@Amos:5:10 @Then one's uncle, or his undertaker, will lift him up to carry out his bones from the house, and he will say to the one who is in the innermost part of the house, "Is anyone else with you?" And that one will say, "No one." Then he will answer, " Keep quiet. For the name of the LORD is not to be mentioned."

nasb@Amos:5:11 @For behold, the LORD is going to command that the great house be smashed to pieces and the small house to fragments.

nasb@Amos:5:14" @For behold, I am going to raise up a nation against you, O house of Israel," declares the LORD God of hosts, "And they will afflict you from the entrance of Hamath To the brook of the Arabah."

nasb@Amos:6:1 @Thus the Lord GOD showed me, and behold, He was forming a locust-swarm when the spring crop began to sprout. And behold, the spring crop was after the king's mowing.

nasb@Amos:6:3 @The LORD changed His mind about this. "It shall not be," said the LORD.

nasb@Amos:6:4 @Thus the Lord GOD showed me, and behold, the Lord GOD was calling to contend with them by fire, and it consumed the great deep and began to consume the farm land.

nasb@Amos:6:6 @The LORD changed His mind about this. "This too shall not be," said the Lord GOD.

nasb@Amos:6:7 @Thus He showed me, and behold, the Lord was standing by a vertical wall with a plumb line in His hand.

nasb@Amos:6:8 @The LORD said to me, " What do you see, Amos?" And I said, "A plumb line." Then the Lord said, "Behold I am about to put a plumb line In the midst of My people Israel. I will spare them no longer.

nasb@Amos:6:9" @The high places of Isaac will be desolated And the sanctuaries of Israel laid waste. Then I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword."

nasb@Amos:6:10 @Then Amaziah, the priest of Bethel, sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, "Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel; the land is unable to endure all his words.

nasb@Amos:6:13" @But no longer prophesy at Bethel, for it is a sanctuary of the king and a royal residence."

nasb@Amos:6:17" @Therefore, thus says the LORD, 'Your wife will become a harlot in the city, your sons and your daughters will fall by the sword, your land will be parceled up by a measuring line and you yourself will die upon unclean soil. Moreover, Israel will certainly go from its land into exile.'"

nasb@Amos:7:1 @Thus the Lord GOD showed me, and behold, there was a basket of summer fruit.

nasb@Amos:7:3" @The songs of the palace will turn to wailing in that day," declares the Lord GOD. "Many will be the corpses; in every place they will cast them forth in silence."

nasb@Amos:7:5 @saying, "When will the new moon be over, So that we may sell grain, And the sabbath, that we may open the wheat market, To make the bushel smaller and the shekel bigger, And to cheat with dishonest scales,

nasb@Jonah:0:6 @So the captain approached him and said, "How is it that you are sleeping? Get up, call on your god. Perhaps your god will be concerned about us so that we will not perish."

nasb@Jonah:0:10 @Then the men became extremely frightened and they said to him, "How could you do this?" For the men knew that he was fleeing from the presence of the LORD, because he had told them.

nasb@Jonah:0:11 @So they said to him, "What should we do to you that the sea may become calm for us?"--for the sea was becoming increasingly stormy.

nasb@Jonah:0:12 @He said to them, "Pick me up and throw me into the sea. Then the sea will become calm for you, for I know that on account of me this great storm has come upon you."

nasb@Jonah:1:7" @While I was fainting away, I remembered the LORD, And my prayer came to You, Into Your holy temple.

nasb@Jonah:1:4 @Then Jonah began to go through the city one day's walk; and he cried out and said, "Yet forty days and Nineveh will be overthrown."

nasb@Jonah:1:5 @Then the people of Nineveh believed in God; and they called a fast and put on sackcloth from the greatest to the least of them.

nasb@Jonah:1:6 @When the word reached the king of Nineveh, he arose from his throne, laid aside his robe from him, covered himself with sackcloth and sat on the ashes.

nasb@Jonah:1:7 @He issued a proclamation and it said, "In Nineveh by the decree of the king and his nobles- Do not let man, beast, herd, or flock taste a thing. Do not let them eat or drink water.

nasb@Jonah:1:8" @But both man and beast must be covered with sackcloth; and let men call on God earnestly that each may turn from his wicked way and from the violence which is in his hands.

nasb@Jonah:2:4 @The LORD said, "Do you have good reason to be angry?"

nasb@Jonah:2:6 @So the LORD God appointed a plant and it grew up over Jonah to be a shade over his head to deliver him from his discomfort. And Jonah was extremely happy about the plant.

nasb@Jonah:2:8 @When the sun came up God appointed a scorching east wind, and the sun beat down on Jonah's head so that he became faint and begged with all his soul to die, saying, " Death is better to me than life."

nasb@Micah:2:1 @Woe to those who scheme iniquity, Who work out evil on their beds! When morning comes, they do it, For it is in the power of their hands.

nasb@Micah:2:3 @Therefore thus says the LORD, "Behold, I am planning against this family a calamity From which you cannot remove your necks; And you will not walk haughtily, For it will be an evil time.

nasb@Micah:3:5 @This One will be our peace. When the Assyrian invades our land, When he tramples on our citadels, Then we will raise against him Seven shepherds and eight leaders of men.

nasb@Micah:3:7 @Then the remnant of Jacob Will be among many peoples Like dew from the LORD, Like showers on vegetation Which do not wait for man Or delay for the sons of men.

nasb@Micah:3:8 @The remnant of Jacob Will be among the nations, Among many peoples Like a lion among the beasts of the forest, Like a young lion among flocks of sheep, Which, if he passes through, Tramples down and tears, And there is none to rescue.

nasb@Micah:3:9 @Your hand will be lifted up against your adversaries, And all your enemies will be cut off.

nasb@Micah:3:14" @You will eat, but you will not be satisfied, And your vileness will be in your midst. You will try to remove for safekeeping, But you will not preserve anything, And what you do preserve I will give to the sword.

nasb@Micah:3:16" @The statutes of Omri And all the works of the house of Ahab are observed; And in their devices you walk. Therefore I will give you up for destruction And your inhabitants for derision, And you will bear the reproach of My people."

nasb@Micah:4:3 @Concerning evil, both hands do it well. The prince asks, also the judge, for a bribe, And a great man speaks the desire of his soul; So they weave it together.
