Amos 5:2

2 "The young girl Israel has fallen, and she will not rise up again. She was left alone in her own land, and there is no one to help her up."

Amos 5:2 In-Context

1 Listen to this funeral song that I sing about you, people of Israel.
2 "The young girl Israel has fallen, and she will not rise up again. She was left alone in her own land, and there is no one to help her up."
3 This is what the Lord God says: "If a thousand soldiers leave a city, only a hundred will return; if a hundred soldiers leave a city, only ten will return."
4 This is what the Lord says to the nation of Israel: "Come to me and live.
5 But do not look in Bethel or go to Gilgal, and do not go down to Beersheba. The people of Gilgal will be taken away as captives, and Bethel will become nothing."
