Amos 3:1-6

1 Hear this word that Yahweh has spoken against you, children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up out of the land of Egypt, saying:
2 "You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth. Therefore I will punish you for all of your sins."
3 Do two walk together, Unless they have agreed?
4 Will a lion roar in the thicket, When he has no prey? Does a young lion cry out of his den, If he has caught nothing?
5 Can a bird fall in a trap on the earth, Where no snare is set for him? Does a snare spring up from the ground, When there is nothing to catch?
6 Does the trumpet alarm sound in a city, Without the people being afraid? Does evil befall a city, And Yahweh hasn't done it?
