7:1 Thus
hath
the
Lord
God
shewed
vnto
me,
and
behold,
he
formed
grassehoppers
in
the
beginning
of
the
shooting
vp
of
the
latter
grouth:
and
loe,
it
was
the
latter
grouth
after
the
kings
mowings.
7:2 And
it
came
to
passe,
that
when
they
had
made
an
ende
of
eating
the
grasse
of
the
land,
then
I
said;
O
Lord
God,
forgiue,
I
beseech
thee,
by
whom
shal
Iacob
arise
for
he
is
small.
7:3 The
Lord
repented
for
this.
It
shall
not
be,
saith
the
Lord.
7:4 Thus
hath
the
Lord
God
shewed
vnto
me;
and
behold,
the
Lord
God
called
to
contend
by
fire,
and
it
deuoured
the
great
deepe,
and
did
eate
vp
a
part.
7:5 Then
said
I,
O
Lord
God
,
cease,
I
beseech
thee,
by
whom
shal
Iacob
arise
for
he
is
small.
7:6 The
Lord
repented
for
this.
This
also
shall
not
bee,
saith
the
Lord
God.
7:7 Thus
hee
shewed
mee,
and
behold,
the
Lord
stood
vpon
a
wall
made
by
a
plumbline,
with
a
plumbline
in
his
hand.
7:8 And
the
Lord
said
vnto
mee,
Amos,
what
seest
thou
And
I
sayd,
A
plumb-line.
Then
sayd
the
Lord,
Behold,
I
will
set
a
plumb-line
in
the
midst
of
my
people
Israel,
I
will
not
againe
passe
by
them
any
more.
7:9 And
the
high
places
of
Isaac
shall
be
desolate,
and
the
Sanctuaries
of
Israel
shalbe
laide
waste:
and
I
will
rise
against
the
house
of
Ieroboam
with
the
sword.
7:10 Then
Amaziah
the
Priest
of
Beth-el
sent
to
Ieroboam
king
of
Israel,
saying;
Amos
hath
conspired
against
thee
in
the
midst
of
the
house
of
Israel:
the
land
is
not
able
to
beare
all
his
words.
7:11 For
thus
Amos
saith,
Ieroboam
shall
die
by
the
sword,
and
Israel
shall
surely
be
led
away
captiue,
out
of
their
owne
land.
7:12 Also
Amaziah
said
vnto
Amos,
O
thou
Seer,
goe,
flee
thee
away
into
the
land
of
Iudah,
and
there
eate
bread,
and
prophecie
there.
7:13 But
prophecie
not
againe
any
more
at
Beth-el:
for
it
is
the
Kings
Chappell,
and
it
is
the
Kings
Court.
7:14 Then
answered
Amos,
and
sayde
to
Amaziah;
I
was
no
Prophet,
neither
was
I
a
Prophets
sonne,
but
I
was
an
heardman,
and
a
gatherer
of
Sycomore
fruit.
7:15 And
the
Lord
tooke
me
as
I
followed
the
flocke,
and
the
Lord
said
vnto
me,
Goe,
prophecie
vnto
my
people
Israel.
7:16 Now
therefore
heare
thou
the
worde
of
the
Lord;
Thou
sayest,
Prophecie
not
against
Israel,
and
drop
not
thy
word
against
the
house
of
Isaac.
7:17 Therfore
thus
sayth
the
Lord;
Thy
wife
shall
be
an
harlot
in
the
city,
and
thy
sonnes
and
thy
daughters
shall
fall
by
the
sword,
and
thy
land
shall
be
diuided
by
line:
and
thou
shalt
die
in
a
polluted
land,
and
Israel
shall
surely
goe
into
captiuitie
foorth
of
his
land.
