Hosea:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that came to Hosea the son of Beeri, in the days of Uzziah, Jotham, Ahaz, and Hezekiah, kings of Judah, and in the days of Jeroboam the son of Joash, king of Israel.
nkjv@Hosea:1:2 @ When the LORD began to speak by Hosea, the LORD said to Hosea: "Go, take yourself a wife of harlotry And children of harlotry, For the land has committed great harlotry By departing from the LORD."
nkjv@Hosea:1:4 @ Then the LORD said to him: "Call his name Jezreel, For in a little while I will avenge the bloodshed of Jezreel on the house of Jehu, And bring an end to the kingdom of the house of Israel.
nkjv@Hosea:1:5 @ It shall come to pass in that day That I will break the bow of Israel in the Valley of Jezreel."
nkjv@Hosea:1:6 @ And she conceived again and bore a daughter. Then God said to him: "Call her name Lo-Ruhamah, For I will no longer have mercy on the house of Israel, But I will utterly take them away.
nkjv@Hosea:1:10 @ "Yet the number of the children of Israel Shall be as the sand of the sea, Which cannot be measured or numbered. And it shall come to pass In the place where it was said to them, "You are not My people,' There it shall be said to them, "You are sons of the living God.'
nkjv@Hosea:1:11 @ Then the children of Judah and the children of Israel Shall be gathered together, And appoint for themselves one head; And they shall come up out of the land, For great will be the day of Jezreel!
nkjv@Hosea:2:10 @ Now I will uncover her lewdness in the sight of her lovers, And no one shall deliver her from My hand.
nkjv@Hosea:2:12 @ "And I will destroy her vines and her fig trees, Of which she has said, "These are my wages that my lovers have given me.' So I will make them a forest, And the beasts of the field shall eat them.
nkjv@Hosea:2:13 @ I will punish her For the days of the Baals to which she burned incense. She decked herself with her earrings and jewelry, And went after her lovers; But Me she forgot," says the LORD.
nkjv@Hosea:2:18 @ In that day I will make a covenant for them With the beasts of the field, With the birds of the air, And with the creeping things of the ground. Bow and sword of battle I will shatter from the earth, To make them lie down safely.
nkjv@Hosea:2:22 @ The earth shall answer With grain, With new wine, And with oil; They shall answer Jezreel.
nkjv@Hosea:2:23 @ Then I will sow her for Myself in the earth, And I will have mercy on her who had not obtained mercy; Then I will say to those who were not My people, "You are My people!' And they shall say, "You are my God!"'
nkjv@Hosea:3:1 @ Then the LORD said to me, "Go again, love a woman who is loved by a lover and is committing adultery, just like the love of the LORD for the children of Israel, who look to other gods and love the raisin cakes of the pagans."
nkjv@Hosea:3:2 @ So I bought her for myself for fifteen shekels of silver, and one and one-half homers of barley.
nkjv@Hosea:3:4 @ For the children of Israel shall abide many days without king or prince, without sacrifice or sacred pillar, without ephod or teraphim.
nkjv@Hosea:3:5 @ Afterward the children of Israel shall return and seek the LORD their God and David their king. They shall fear the LORD and His goodness in the latter days.
nkjv@Hosea:4:1 @ Hear the word of the LORD, You children of Israel, For the LORD brings a charge against the inhabitants of the land: "There is no truth or mercy Or knowledge of God in the land.
nkjv@Hosea:4:3 @ Therefore the land will mourn; And everyone who dwells there will waste away With the beasts of the field And the birds of the air; Even the fish of the sea will be taken away.
nkjv@Hosea:4:12 @ My people ask counsel from their wooden idols, And their staff informs them. For the spirit of harlotry has caused them to stray, And they have played the harlot against their God.
nkjv@Hosea:4:14 @ "I will not punish your daughters when they commit harlotry, Nor your brides when they commit adultery; For the men themselves go apart with harlots, And offer sacrifices with a ritual harlot. Therefore people who do not understand will be trampled.
nkjv@Hosea:4:15 @ "Though you, Israel, play the harlot, Let not Judah offend. Do not come up to Gilgal, Nor go up to Beth Aven, Nor swear an oath, saying, "As the LORD lives'--
nkjv@Hosea:4:16 @ "For Israel is stubborn Like a stubborn calf; Now the LORD will let them forage Like a lamb in open country.
nkjv@Hosea:4:18 @ Their drink is rebellion, They commit harlotry continually. Her rulers dearly love dishonor.
nkjv@Hosea:5:1 @ "Hear this, O priests! Take heed, O house of Israel! Give ear, O house of the king! For yours is the judgment, Because you have been a snare to Mizpah And a net spread on Tabor.
nkjv@Hosea:5:3 @ I know Ephraim, And Israel is not hidden from Me; For now, O Ephraim, you commit harlotry; Israel is defiled.
nkjv@Hosea:5:5 @ The pride of Israel testifies to his face; Therefore Israel and Ephraim stumble in their iniquity; Judah also stumbles with them.
nkjv@Hosea:5:6 @ "With their flocks and herds They shall go to seek the LORD, But they will not find Him; He has withdrawn Himself from them.
nkjv@Hosea:5:9 @ Ephraim shall be desolate in the day of rebuke; Among the tribes of Israel I make known what is sure.
nkjv@Hosea:6:9 @ As bands of robbers lie in wait for a man, So the company of priests murder on the way to Shechem; Surely they commit lewdness.
nkjv@Hosea:6:10 @ I have seen a horrible thing in the house of Israel: There is the harlotry of Ephraim; Israel is defiled.
nkjv@Hosea:7:1 @ "When I would have healed Israel, Then the iniquity of Ephraim was uncovered, And the wickedness of Samaria. For they have committed fraud; A thief comes in; A band of robbers takes spoil outside.
nkjv@Hosea:7:8 @ "Ephraim has mixed himself among the peoples; Ephraim is a cake unturned.
nkjv@Hosea:7:10 @ And the pride of Israel testifies to his face, But they do not return to the LORD their God, Nor seek Him for all this.
nkjv@Hosea:7:14 @ They did not cry out to Me with their heart When they wailed upon their beds. "They assemble together for grain and new wine, They rebel against Me;
nkjv@Hosea:8:1 @ "Set the trumpet to your mouth! He shall come like an eagle against the house of the LORD, Because they have transgressed My covenant And rebelled against My law.
nkjv@Hosea:8:2 @ Israel will cry to Me, "My God, we know You!'
nkjv@Hosea:8:3 @ Israel has rejected the good; The enemy will pursue him.
nkjv@Hosea:8:4 @ "They set up kings, but not by Me; They made princes, but I did not acknowledge them. From their silver and gold They made idols for themselves-- That they might be cut off.
nkjv@Hosea:8:6 @ For from Israel is even this: A workman made it, and it is not God; But the calf of Samaria shall be broken to pieces.
nkjv@Hosea:8:8 @ Israel is swallowed up; Now they are among the Gentiles Like a vessel in which is no pleasure.
nkjv@Hosea:8:9 @ For they have gone up to Assyria, Like a wild donkey alone by itself; Ephraim has hired lovers.
nkjv@Hosea:8:14 @ "For Israel has forgotten his Maker, And has built temples; Judah also has multiplied fortified cities; But I will send fire upon his cities, And it shall devour his palaces."
nkjv@Hosea:9:1 @ Do not rejoice, O Israel, with joy like other peoples, For you have played the harlot against your God. You have made love for hire on every threshing floor.
nkjv@Hosea:9:3 @ They shall not dwell in the LORD's land, But Ephraim shall return to Egypt, And shall eat unclean things in Assyria.
nkjv@Hosea:9:7 @ The days of punishment have come; The days of recompense have come. Israel knows! The prophet is a fool, The spiritual man is insane, Because of the greatness of your iniquity and great enmity.
nkjv@Hosea:9:10 @ "I found Israel Like grapes in the wilderness; I saw your fathers As the firstfruits on the fig tree in its first season. But they went to Baal Peor, And separated themselves to that shame; They became an abomination like the thing they loved.
nkjv@Hosea:9:15 @ "All their wickedness is in Gilgal, For there I hated them. Because of the evil of their deeds I will drive them from My house; I will love them no more. All their princes are rebellious.
nkjv@Hosea:10:1 @ Israel empties his vine; He brings forth fruit for himself. According to the multitude of his fruit He has increased the altars; According to the bounty of his land They have embellished his sacred pillars.
nkjv@Hosea:10:2 @ Their heart is divided; Now they are held guilty. He will break down their altars; He will ruin their sacred pillars.
nkjv@Hosea:10:4 @ They have spoken words, Swearing falsely in making a covenant. Thus judgment springs up like hemlock in the furrows of the field.
nkjv@Hosea:10:6 @ The idol also shall be carried to Assyria As a present for King Jareb. Ephraim shall receive shame, And Israel shall be ashamed of his own counsel.
nkjv@Hosea:10:8 @ Also the high places of Aven, the sin of Israel, Shall be destroyed. The thorn and thistle shall grow on their altars; They shall say to the mountains, "Cover us!" And to the hills, "Fall on us!"
nkjv@Hosea:10:9 @ "O Israel, you have sinned from the days of Gibeah; There they stood. The battle in Gibeah against the children of iniquity Did not overtake them.
nkjv@Hosea:10:12 @ Sow for yourselves righteousness; Reap in mercy; Break up your fallow ground, For it is time to seek the LORD, Till He comes and rains righteousness on you.
nkjv@Hosea:10:14 @ Therefore tumult shall arise among your people, And all your fortresses shall be plundered As Shalman plundered Beth Arbel in the day of battle-- A mother dashed in pieces upon her children.
nkjv@Hosea:10:15 @ Thus it shall be done to you, O Bethel, Because of your great wickedness. At dawn the king of Israel Shall be cut off utterly.
nkjv@Hosea:11:1 @ "When Israel was a child, I loved him, And out of Egypt I called My son.
nkjv@Hosea:11:6 @ And the sword shall slash in his cities, Devour his districts, And consume them, Because of their own counsels.
nkjv@Hosea:11:8 @ "How can I give you up, Ephraim? How can I hand you over, Israel? How can I make you like Admah? How can I set you like Zeboiim? My heart churns within Me; My sympathy is stirred.
nkjv@Hosea:11:11 @ They shall come trembling like a bird from Egypt, Like a dove from the land of Assyria. And I will let them dwell in their houses," Says the LORD.
nkjv@Hosea:11:12 @ "Ephraim has encircled Me with lies, And the house of Israel with deceit; But Judah still walks with God, Even with the Holy One who is faithful.
nkjv@Hosea:12:3 @ He took his brother by the heel in the womb, And in his strength he struggled with God.
nkjv@Hosea:12:4 @ Yes, he struggled with the Angel and prevailed; He wept, and sought favor from Him. He found Him in Bethel, And there He spoke to us--
nkjv@Hosea:12:6 @ So you, by the help of your God, return; Observe mercy and justice, And wait on your God continually.
nkjv@Hosea:12:8 @ And Ephraim said, "Surely I have become rich, I have found wealth for myself; In all my labors They shall find in me no iniquity that is sin.'
nkjv@Hosea:12:9 @ "But I am the LORD your God, Ever since the land of Egypt; I will again make you dwell in tents, As in the days of the appointed feast.
nkjv@Hosea:12:11 @ Though Gilead has idols-- Surely they are vanity-- Though they sacrifice bulls in Gilgal, Indeed their altars shall be heaps in the furrows of the field.
nkjv@Hosea:12:12 @ Jacob fled to the country of Syria; Israel served for a spouse, And for a wife he tended sheep.
nkjv@Hosea:12:13 @ By a prophet the LORD brought Israel out of Egypt, And by a prophet he was preserved.
nkjv@Hosea:13:1 @ When Ephraim spoke, trembling, He exalted himself in Israel; But when he offended through Baal worship, he died.
nkjv@Hosea:13:2 @ Now they sin more and more, And have made for themselves molded images, Idols of their silver, according to their skill; All of it is the work of craftsmen. They say of them, "Let the men who sacrifice kiss the calves!"
nkjv@Hosea:13:9 @ "O Israel, you are destroyed, But your help is from Me.
nkjv@Hosea:13:16 @ Samaria is held guilty, For she has rebelled against her God. They shall fall by the sword, Their infants shall be dashed in pieces, And their women with child ripped open.
nkjv@Hosea:14:1 @ O Israel, return to the LORD your God, For you have stumbled because of your iniquity;
nkjv@Hosea:14:4 @ "I will heal their backsliding, I will love them freely, For My anger has turned away from him.
nkjv@Hosea:14:5 @ I will be like the dew to Israel; He shall grow like the lily, And lengthen his roots like Lebanon.
nkjv@Hosea:14:7 @ Those who dwell under his shadow shall return; They shall be revived like grain, And grow like a vine. Their scent shall be like the wine of Lebanon.
nkjv@Joel:1:1 @ The word of the LORD that came to Joel the son of Pethuel.
nkjv@Joel:1:2 @ Hear this, you elders, And give ear, all you inhabitants of the land! Has anything like this happened in your days, Or even in the days of your fathers?
nkjv@Joel:1:3 @ Tell your children about it, Let your children tell their children, And their children another generation.
nkjv@Joel:1:4 @ What the chewing locust left, the swarming locust has eaten; What the swarming locust left, the crawling locust has eaten; And what the crawling locust left, the consuming locust has eaten.
nkjv@Joel:1:5 @ Awake, you drunkards, and weep; And wail, all you drinkers of wine, Because of the new wine, For it has been cut off from your mouth.
nkjv@Joel:1:6 @ For a nation has come up against My land, Strong, and without number; His teeth are the teeth of a lion, And he has the fangs of a fierce lion.
nkjv@Joel:1:7 @ He has laid waste My vine, And ruined My fig tree; He has stripped it bare and thrown it away; Its branches are made white.
nkjv@Joel:1:8 @ Lament like a virgin girded with sackcloth For the husband of her youth.
nkjv@Joel:1:9 @ The grain offering and the drink offering Have been cut off from the house of the LORD; The priests mourn, who minister to the LORD.
nkjv@Joel:1:10 @ The field is wasted, The land mourns; For the grain is ruined, The new wine is dried up, The oil fails.
nkjv@Joel:1:11 @ Be ashamed, you farmers, Wail, you vinedressers, For the wheat and the barley; Because the harvest of the field has perished.
nkjv@Joel:1:12 @ The vine has dried up, And the fig tree has withered; The pomegranate tree, The palm tree also, And the apple tree-- All the trees of the field are withered; Surely joy has withered away from the sons of men.
nkjv@Joel:1:13 @ Gird yourselves and lament, you priests; Wail, you who minister before the altar; Come, lie all night in sackcloth, You who minister to my God; For the grain offering and the drink offering Are withheld from the house of your God.
nkjv@Joel:1:14 @ Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly; Gather the elders And all the inhabitants of the land Into the house of the LORD your God, And cry out to the LORD.
nkjv@Joel:1:15 @ Alas for the day! For the day of the LORD is at hand; It shall come as destruction from the Almighty.
nkjv@Joel:1:16 @ Is not the food cut off before our eyes, Joy and gladness from the house of our God?
nkjv@Joel:1:17 @ The seed shrivels under the clods, Storehouses are in shambles; Barns are broken down, For the grain has withered.
nkjv@Joel:1:18 @ How the animals groan! The herds of cattle are restless, Because they have no pasture; Even the flocks of sheep suffer punishment.
nkjv@Joel:1:19 @ O LORD, to You I cry out; For fire has devoured the open pastures, And a flame has burned all the trees of the field.
nkjv@Joel:1:20 @ The beasts of the field also cry out to You, For the water brooks are dried up, And fire has devoured the open pastures.
nkjv@Joel:2:1 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, And sound an alarm in My holy mountain! Let all the inhabitants of the land tremble; For the day of the LORD is coming, For it is at hand:
nkjv@Joel:2:2 @ A day of darkness and gloominess, A day of clouds and thick darkness, Like the morning clouds spread over the mountains. A people come, great and strong, The like of whom has never been; Nor will there ever be any such after them, Even for many successive generations.
nkjv@Joel:2:3 @ A fire devours before them, And behind them a flame burns; The land is like the Garden of Eden before them, And behind them a desolate wilderness; Surely nothing shall escape them.
nkjv@Joel:2:4 @ Their appearance is like the appearance of horses; And like swift steeds, so they run.
nkjv@Joel:2:5 @ With a noise like chariots Over mountaintops they leap, Like the noise of a flaming fire that devours the stubble, Like a strong people set in battle array.
nkjv@Joel:2:6 @ Before them the people writhe in pain; All faces are drained of color.
nkjv@Joel:2:7 @ They run like mighty men, They climb the wall like men of war; Every one marches in formation, And they do not break ranks.
nkjv@Joel:2:8 @ They do not push one another; Every one marches in his own column. Though they lunge between the weapons, They are not cut down.
nkjv@Joel:2:9 @ They run to and fro in the city, They run on the wall; They climb into the houses, They enter at the windows like a thief.
nkjv@Joel:2:10 @ The earth quakes before them, The heavens tremble; The sun and moon grow dark, And the stars diminish their brightness.
nkjv@Joel:2:11 @ The LORD gives voice before His army, For His camp is very great; For strong is the One who executes His word. For the day of the LORD is great and very terrible; Who can endure it?
nkjv@Joel:2:12 @ "Now, therefore," says the LORD, "Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning."
nkjv@Joel:2:13 @ So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm.
nkjv@Joel:2:14 @ Who knows if He will turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind Him-- A grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God?
nkjv@Joel:2:15 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly;
nkjv@Joel:2:16 @ Gather the people, Sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and nursing babes; Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber, And the bride from her dressing room.
nkjv@Joel:2:17 @ Let the priests, who minister to the LORD, Weep between the porch and the altar; Let them say, "Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not give Your heritage to reproach, That the nations should rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, "Where is their God?"'
nkjv@Joel:2:18 @ Then the LORD will be zealous for His land, And pity His people.
nkjv@Joel:2:19 @ The LORD will answer and say to His people, "Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil, And you will be satisfied by them; I will no longer make you a reproach among the nations.
nkjv@Joel:2:20 @ "But I will remove far from you the northern army, And will drive him away into a barren and desolate land, With his face toward the eastern sea And his back toward the western sea; His stench will come up, And his foul odor will rise, Because he has done monstrous things."
nkjv@Joel:2:21 @ Fear not, O land; Be glad and rejoice, For the LORD has done marvelous things!
nkjv@Joel:2:22 @ Do not be afraid, you beasts of the field; For the open pastures are springing up, And the tree bears its fruit; The fig tree and the vine yield their strength.
nkjv@Joel:2:23 @ Be glad then, you children of Zion, And rejoice in the LORD your God; For He has given you the former rain faithfully, And He will cause the rain to come down for you-- The former rain, And the latter rain in the first month.
nkjv@Joel:2:24 @ The threshing floors shall be full of wheat, And the vats shall overflow with new wine and oil.
nkjv@Joel:2:25 @ "So I will restore to you the years that the swarming locust has eaten, The crawling locust, The consuming locust, And the chewing locust, My great army which I sent among you.
nkjv@Joel:2:26 @ You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied, And praise the name of the LORD your God, Who has dealt wondrously with you; And My people shall never be put to shame.
nkjv@Joel:2:27 @ Then you shall know that I am in the midst of Israel: I am the LORD your God And there is no other. My people shall never be put to shame.
nkjv@Joel:2:28 @ "And it shall come to pass afterward That I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, Your old men shall dream dreams, Your young men shall see visions.
nkjv@Joel:2:29 @ And also on My menservants and on My maidservants I will pour out My Spirit in those days.
nkjv@Joel:2:30 @ "And I will show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: Blood and fire and pillars of smoke.
nkjv@Joel:2:31 @ The sun shall be turned into darkness, And the moon into blood, Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the LORD.
nkjv@Joel:2:32 @ And it shall come to pass That whoever calls on the name of the LORD Shall be saved. For in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be deliverance, As the LORD has said, Among the remnant whom the LORD calls.
nkjv@Joel:3:1 @ "For behold, in those days and at that time, When I bring back the captives of Judah and Jerusalem,
nkjv@Joel:3:2 @ I will also gather all nations, And bring them down to the Valley of Jehoshaphat; And I will enter into judgment with them there On account of My people, My heritage Israel, Whom they have scattered among the nations; They have also divided up My land.
nkjv@Joel:3:3 @ They have cast lots for My people, Have given a boy as payment for a harlot, And sold a girl for wine, that they may drink.
nkjv@Joel:3:4 @ "Indeed, what have you to do with Me, O Tyre and Sidon, and all the coasts of Philistia? Will you retaliate against Me? But if you retaliate against Me, Swiftly and speedily I will return your retaliation upon your own head;
nkjv@Joel:3:5 @ Because you have taken My silver and My gold, And have carried into your temples My prized possessions.
nkjv@Joel:3:6 @ Also the people of Judah and the people of Jerusalem You have sold to the Greeks, That you may remove them far from their borders.
nkjv@Joel:3:7 @ "Behold, I will raise them Out of the place to which you have sold them, And will return your retaliation upon your own head.

nkjv@Joel:3:14 @ Multitudes, multitudes in the valley of decision! For the day of the LORD is near in the valley of decision.
nkjv@Joel:3:15 @ The sun and moon will grow dark, And the stars will diminish their brightness.
nkjv@Joel:3:16 @ The LORD also will roar from Zion, And utter His voice from Jerusalem; The heavens and earth will shake; But the LORD will be a shelter for His people, And the strength of the children of Israel.
nkjv@Joel:3:17 @ "So you shall know that I am the LORD your God, Dwelling in Zion My holy mountain. Then Jerusalem shall be holy, And no aliens shall ever pass through her again."
nkjv@Joel:3:18 @ And it will come to pass in that day That the mountains shall drip with new wine, The hills shall flow with milk, And all the brooks of Judah shall be flooded with water; A fountain shall flow from the house of the LORD And water the Valley of Acacias.
nkjv@Joel:3:19 @ "Egypt shall be a desolation, And Edom a desolate wilderness, Because of violence against the people of Judah, For they have shed innocent blood in their land.

nkjv@Amos:1:4 @ But I will send a fire into the house of Hazael, Which shall devour the palaces of Ben-Hadad.
nkjv@Amos:1:6 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Gaza, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they took captive the whole captivity To deliver them up to Edom.
nkjv@Amos:1:8 @ I will cut off the inhabitant from Ashdod, And the one who holds the scepter from Ashkelon; I will turn My hand against Ekron, And the remnant of the Philistines shall perish," Says the Lord GOD.
nkjv@Amos:1:9 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Tyre, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they delivered up the whole captivity to Edom, And did not remember the covenant of brotherhood.
nkjv@Amos:2:6 @ Thus says the LORD: "For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they sell the righteous for silver, And the poor for a pair of sandals.
nkjv@Amos:2:11 @ I raised up some of your sons as prophets, And some of your young men as Nazirites. Is it not so, O you children of Israel?" Says the LORD.
nkjv@Amos:2:14 @ Therefore flight shall perish from the swift, The strong shall not strengthen his power, Nor shall the mighty deliver himself;
nkjv@Amos:2:15 @ He shall not stand who handles the bow, The swift of foot shall not escape, Nor shall he who rides a horse deliver himself.
nkjv@Amos:3:1 @ Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:
nkjv@Amos:3:7 @ Surely the Lord GOD does nothing, Unless He reveals His secret to His servants the prophets.
nkjv@Amos:3:12 @ Thus says the LORD: "As a shepherd takes from the mouth of a lion Two legs or a piece of an ear, So shall the children of Israel be taken out Who dwell in Samaria-- In the corner of a bed and on the edge of a couch!
nkjv@Amos:3:14 @ "That in the day I punish Israel for their transgressions, I will also visit destruction on the altars of Bethel; And the horns of the altar shall be cut off And fall to the ground.

nkjv@Amos:4:7 @ "I also withheld rain from you, When there were still three months to the harvest. I made it rain on one city, I withheld rain from another city. One part was rained upon, And where it did not rain the part withered.

nkjv@Amos:5:2 @ The virgin of Israel has fallen; She will rise no more. She lies forsaken on her land; There is no one to raise her up.
nkjv@Amos:5:3 @ For thus says the Lord GOD: "The city that goes out by a thousand Shall have a hundred left, And that which goes out by a hundred Shall have ten left to the house of Israel."
nkjv@Amos:5:4 @ For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel: "Seek Me and live;
nkjv@Amos:5:5 @ But do not seek Bethel, Nor enter Gilgal, Nor pass over to Beersheba; For Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, And Bethel shall come to nothing.
nkjv@Amos:5:6 @ Seek the LORD and live, Lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph, And devour it, With no one to quench it in Bethel--
