Amos 7:11

Listen to Amos 7:11
11 Car voici ce que dit Amos: Jéroboam mourra par l'épée, et Israël sera emmené captif loin de son pays.

Amos 7:11 Meaning and Commentary

Amos 7:11

For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword
Which was not saying truth; for Amos said not that Jeroboam should die by the sword, but that God would raise up the sword against his house or family; nor did Jeroboam die by the sword, but his son Zachariah did: and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land;
this was true; Amos did say this, and he afterwards confirms it. This is the amount of the charge brought against the prophet, which has some truth and some falsehood mixed together; and by which method the priest hoped to gain his point, and get the prophet either banished or put to death.

Amos 7:11 In-Context

9 Les hauts lieux d'Isaac seront ravagés; Les sanctuaires d'Israël seront détruits, Et je me lèverai contre la maison de Jéroboam avec l'épée.
10 Alors Amatsia, prêtre de Béthel, fit dire à Jéroboam, roi d'Israël: Amos conspire contre toi au milieu de la maison d'Israël; le pays ne peut supporter toutes ses paroles.
11 Car voici ce que dit Amos: Jéroboam mourra par l'épée, et Israël sera emmené captif loin de son pays.
12 Et Amatsia dit à Amos: Homme à visions, va-t-en, fuis dans le pays de Juda; manges-y ton pain, et là tu prophétiseras.
13 Mais ne continue pas à prophétiser à Béthel, car c'est un sanctuaire du roi, et c'est une maison royale.
