*
Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel ,
saying ,
Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel :
the land is not able to bear all his words .
*
For thus Amos says ,
Jeroboam shall die by the sword ,
and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land .
*
Also Amaziah said unto Amos ,
O you seer ,
go ,
flee you away into the land of Judah ,
and there eat bread ,
and prophesy there :
*
But prophesy not again any more at Bethel :
for it is the king '
s chapel ,
and it is the king '
s court .
*
Then answered Amos ,
and said to Amaziah ,
I was no prophet ,
neither was I a prophet '
s son ;
but I was a herdsman ,
and a gatherer of sycomore fruit :
*
And the LORD took me as I followed the flock ,
and the LORD said unto me ,
Go ,
prophesy unto my people Israel .
*
Now therefore hear you the word of the LORD :
You says ,
Prophesy not against Israel ,
and drop not your word against the house of Isaac .
*
Therefore thus says the LORD ;
Your wife shall be an harlot in the city ,
and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword ,
and your land shall be divided by line ;
and you shall die in a polluted land :
and Israel shall surely go into captivity out of his land .
