Listen to Amós 8:7
7 El SEÑOR ha jurado por el orgullo de Jacob: Ciertamente, nunca me olvidaré de ninguna de sus obras.

Amós 8:7 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 8:7

The Lord hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob
Not by the ark, as R. Japhet; nor by the temple, as Kimchi; but by himself; which sense Kimchi also mentions, and Aben Ezra; the God of Jacob and his glory, the most excellent of all Jacob's enjoyments, and of whom he had reason to boast and glory; see ( Amos 6:8 ) ; surely I will never forget any of their works;
their wicked works, especially those now mentioned; God forgets when he forgives them, or suffers them to go unpunished; but though he had done so long, he would do so no more; on which they might depend, since he had not only said it, but swore to it.

Amós 8:7 In-Context

5 diciendo: ¿Cuándo pasará la luna nueva para vender el grano, y el día de reposo para abrir el mercado de trigo, achicar el efa , aumentar el siclo y engañar con balanzas falsas;
6 para comprar por dinero a los desvalidos y a los pobres por un par de sandalias, y vender los desechos del trigo?
7 El SEÑOR ha jurado por el orgullo de Jacob: Ciertamente, nunca me olvidaré de ninguna de sus obras.
8 ¿No temblará por esto la tierra, y hará duelo todo aquel que habita en ella? Subirá toda ella como el Nilo, se agitará y menguará como el Nilo de Egipto.
9 Y sucederá que en aquel díadeclara el Señor DIOS yo haré que el sol se ponga al mediodía y que la tierra en pleno día se oscurezca.
