Amos 7:15 in context
- 13but prophesy not again any more at Beth-el; for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a royal house.
- 14Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son; but I was a herdsman, and a dresser of sycomore-trees:
- 15and Jehovah took me from following the flock, and Jehovah said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
- 16Now therefore hear thou the word of Jehovah: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not thy word against the house of Isaac;
- 17therefore thus saith Jehovah: 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 a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.
