Amos 4:6-12

Amos 4:6-12

[6] And I also have given  you cleanness  of teeth  in all your cities,  and want  of bread  in all your places:  yet have ye not returned  unto me, saith  the LORD.  [7] And also I have withholden  the rain  from you, when there were yet three  months  to the harvest:  and I caused it to rain  upon one  city,  and caused it not to rain  upon another  city:  one  piece  was rained  upon, and the piece  whereupon it rained  not withered.  [8] So two  or three  cities  wandered  unto one  city,  to drink  water;  but they were not satisfied:  yet have ye not returned  unto me, saith  the LORD.  [9] I have smitten  you with blasting  and mildew:  when your gardens  and your vineyards  and your fig trees  and your olive trees  increased,  the palmerworm  devoured  them: yet have ye not returned  unto me, saith  the LORD.  [10] I have sent  among you the pestilence  after the manner  of Egypt:  your young men  have I slain  with the sword,  and have taken away  your horses;  and I have made the stink  of your camps  to come up  unto your nostrils:  yet have ye not returned  unto me, saith  the LORD.  [11] I have overthrown  some of you, as God  overthrew  Sodom  and Gomorrah,  and ye were as a firebrand  plucked out  of the burning:  yet have ye not returned  unto me, saith  the LORD.  [12] Therefore thus will I do  unto thee, O Israel:  and because  I will do  this unto thee, prepare  to meet  thy God,  O Israel.
