Amos 5:1-3

NLT

NIV

1 Listen, you people of Israel! Listen to this funeral song I am singing:
1 Hear this word, Israel, this lament I take up concerning you:
2 “The virgin Israel has fallen, never to rise again! She lies abandoned on the ground, with no one to help her up.”
2 “Fallen is Virgin Israel, never to rise again, deserted in her own land, with no one to lift her up.”
3 The Sovereign LORD says: “When a city sends a thousand men to battle, only a hundred will return. When a town sends a hundred, only ten will come back alive.”
3 This is what the Sovereign LORD says to Israel: “Your city that marches out a thousand strong will have only a hundred left; your town that marches out a hundred strong will have only ten left.”
