Amos 4:6-11
Israel Has Not Returned to the Lord
6
"I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities, and 1lack of bread in all your places, 2yet you did not return to me," declares the LORD.
7
"I also 3withheld the rain from you when there were yet three months to the harvest; 4I would send rain on one city, and send no rain on another city; one field would have rain, and the field on which it did not rain would wither;
8
so two or three cities 5would wander to another city to drink water, and would not be satisfied; 6yet you did not return to me," declares the LORD.
9
7"I struck you with blight and mildew; your many gardens and your vineyards, your fig trees and your olive trees 8the locust devoured; 9yet you did not return to me," declares the LORD.
