jps@Amos:6:10 @ And when a man's uncle shall take him up, even he that burneth him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto him that is in the innermost parts of the house: 'Is there yet any with thee?' and he shall say: 'No'; then shall he say: 'Hold thy peace; for we must not make mention of the name of the LORD.'
jps@Amos:6:11 @ For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and the great house shall be smitten into splinters, and the little house into chips.
jps@Amos:6:14 @ For, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O house of Israel, saith the LORD, the God of hosts; and they shall afflict you from the entrance of Hamath unto the Brook of the Arabah.

jps@Amos:7:2 @ And if it had come to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land--so I said: O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech Thee; how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.
jps@Amos:7:3 @ The LORD repented concerning this; 'It shall not be', saith the LORD.
jps@Amos:7:4 @ Thus the Lord GOD showed me; and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land.
jps@Amos:7:5 @ Then said I: O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech Thee; how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.
jps@Amos:7:6 @ The LORD repented concerning this; 'This also shall not be', saith the Lord GOD.
jps@Amos:7:7 @ Thus He showed me; and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in His hand.
jps@Amos:7:8 @ And the LORD said unto me: 'Amos, what seest thou?' And I said: 'A plumbline.' Then said the Lord: Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of My people Israel; I will not again pardon them any more;
jps@Amos:7:15 @ and the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said unto me: Go, prophesy unto My people Israel.
jps@Amos:7:16 @ Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest: Prophesy not against Israel, and preach not against the house of Isaac;
jps@Amos:7:17 @ Therefore thus saith the LORD: Thy wife shall be a harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou thyself shalt die in an unclean land, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.'

jps@Amos:9:1 @ I saw the Lord standing beside the altar; and He said: Smite the capitals, that the posts may shake; and break them in pieces on the head of all of them; and I will slay the residue of them with the sword; there shall not one of them flee away, and there shall not one of them escape.
jps@Amos:9:5 @ For the Lord, the GOD of hosts, is He that toucheth the land and it melteth, and all that dwell therein mourn; and it riseth up wholly like the River, and sinketh again, like the River of Egypt;
jps@Amos:9:6 @ It is He that buildeth His upper chambers in the heaven, and hath founded His vault upon the earth; He that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth; The LORD is His name.
jps@Amos:9:7 @ Are ye not as the children of the Ethiopians unto Me, O children of Israel? saith the LORD. Have not I brought up Israel out of the land of Egypt, and the Philistines from Caphtor, and Aram from Kir?

jps@Obadiah:1:8 @ Shall I not in that day, saith the LORD, destroy the wise men out of Edom, and discernment out of the mount of Esau?

jps@Jonah:1:14 @ Wherefore they cried unto the LORD, and said: 'We beseech Thee, O LORD, we beseech Thee, let us not perish for this man's life, and lay not upon us innocent blood; for Thou, O LORD, hast done as it pleased Thee.'

jps@Jonah:4:2 @ And he prayed unto the LORD, and said: 'I pray Thee, O LORD, was not this my saying, when I was yet in mine own country? Therefore I fled beforehand unto Tarshish; for I knew that Thou art a gracious God, and compassionate, long- suffering, and abundant in mercy, and repentest Thee of the evil.
jps@Jonah:4:3 @ Therefore now, O LORD, take, I beseech Thee, my life from me; for it is better for me to die than to live.'
