Amos 8:13 in context

1. 11Behold, the days come,” says the Lord Yahweh,
   “that I will send a famine in the land,
   not a famine of bread,
   nor a thirst for water,
   but of hearing Yahweh’s words.
2. 12They will wander from sea to sea,
   and from the north even to the east;
   they will run back and forth to seek Yahweh’s word,
   and will not find it.
3. 13In that day the beautiful virgins
   and the young men will faint for thirst.
4. 14Those who swear by the sin of Samaria,
   and say, ‘As your god, Dan, lives;’
   and, ‘As the way of Beersheba lives;’
   they will fall, and never rise up again.”
