7. Thus[H3541] he showed[H7200] me: and, behold,[H2009] the Lord[H136] stood[H5324] upon[H5921] a wall[H2346] made by a plumb line,[H594] with a plumb line[H594] in his hand.[H3027]

10. Then Amaziah[H558] the priest[H3548] of Bethel[H1008] sent[H7971] to[H413] Jeroboam[H3379] king[H4428] of Israel,[H3478] saying,[H559] Amos[H5986] hath conspired[H7194] against[H5921] thee in the midst[H7130] of the house[H1004] of Israel:[H3478] the land[H776] is not able[H3201] [H3808] to bear[H3557] [H853] all[H3605] his words.[H1697]
11. For[H3588] thus[H3541] Amos[H5986] saith,[H559] Jeroboam[H3379] shall die[H4191] by the sword,[H2719] and Israel[H3478] shall surely be led away captive[H1540] [H1540] out of[H4480] [H5921] their own land.[H127]
12. Also Amaziah[H558] said[H559] unto[H413] Amos,[H5986] O thou seer,[H2374] go,[H1980] flee thee away[H1272] into[H413] the land[H776] of Judah,[H3063] and there[H8033] eat[H398] bread,[H3899] and prophesy[H5012] there: [H8033]
13. But prophesy[H5012] not[H3808] again[H3254] any more[H5750] at Bethel:[H1008] for[H3588] it[H1931] is the king's[H4428] chapel,[H4720] and it[H1931] is the king's[H4467] court.[H1004]
14. Then answered[H6030] Amos,[H5986] and said[H559] to[H413] Amaziah,[H558] I[H595] was no[H3808] prophet,[H5030] neither[H3808] was I[H595] a prophet's[H5030] son;[H1121] but[H3588] I[H595] was a herdsman,[H951] and a gatherer[H1103] of sycamore fruit: [H8256]
15. And the LORD[H3068] took[H3947] me as I followed[H4480] [H310] the flock,[H6629] and the Lord[H3068] said[H559] unto[H413] me, Go,[H1980] prophesy[H5012] unto[H413] my people[H5971] Israel.[H3478]
16. Now[H6258] therefore hear[H8085] thou the word[H1697] of the LORD:[H3068] Thou[H859] sayest,[H559] Prophesy[H5012] not[H3808] against[H5921] Israel,[H3478] and drop[H5197] not[H3808] thy word against[H5921] the house[H1004] of Isaac.[H3446]
17.
