00:00.000 --> 00:04.360
Chapter 7 Thus hath the Lord God showed
unto me.

00:04.780 --> 00:09.560
And behold, He formed grasshoppers in the
beginning of the shooting up of the latter

00:09.560 --> 00:10.040
growth.

00:10.400 --> 00:13.940
And lo, it was the latter growth after the
king's mowings.

00:14.380 --> 00:18.200
And it came to pass that when they had
made an end of eating the grass of the

00:18.200 --> 00:22.820
land, then I said, O Lord God forgive,
I beseech Thee.

00:23.200 --> 00:25.100
By whom shall Jacob arise?

00:25.420 --> 00:26.420
For he is small.

00:26.420 --> 00:28.500
The Lord repented for this.

00:29.040 --> 00:30.820
It shall not be, saith the Lord.

00:31.580 --> 00:33.840
Thus hath the Lord God showed unto me.

00:33.900 --> 00:37.340
And behold, the Lord God called to contend
by fire.

00:37.620 --> 00:41.000
And it devoured the great deep,
and did eat up a part.

00:41.640 --> 00:45.240
Then said I, O Lord God cease,
I beseech Thee.

00:45.400 --> 00:47.180
By whom shall Jacob arise?

00:47.360 --> 00:48.320
For he is small.

00:48.840 --> 00:50.540
The Lord repented for this.

00:51.100 --> 00:54.420
This also shall not be, saith the Lord
God.

00:55.060 --> 00:56.720
Thus he showed me.

00:57.280 --> 01:02.140
And behold, the Lord stood upon a wall
made by a plumb line, with a plumb line in

01:02.140 --> 01:02.760
his hand.

01:03.120 --> 01:06.800
And the Lord said unto me, Amos,
what seest thou?

01:07.200 --> 01:09.420
And I said, A plumb line.

01:10.060 --> 01:15.160
Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a
plumb line in the midst of my people

01:15.160 --> 01:15.660
Israel.

01:16.160 --> 01:18.380
I will not again pass by them any more.

01:18.640 --> 01:21.380
And the high places of Isaac shall be
desolate.

01:21.380 --> 01:24.720
And the sanctuaries of Israel shall be
laid waste.

01:25.000 --> 01:29.080
And I will rise against the house of
Jeroboam with the sword.

01:29.580 --> 01:33.460
Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to
Jeroboam king of Israel, saying,

01:33.780 --> 01:36.820
Amos hath conspired against thee in the
midst of the house of Israel.

01:37.420 --> 01:40.040
The land is not able to bear all his
words.

01:40.840 --> 01:45.760
For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by
the sword, and Israel shall surely be led

01:45.760 --> 01:47.420
away captive out of their own land.

01:47.680 --> 01:52.840
Also Amaziah said unto Amos, O thou seer,
go, flee thee away into the land of Judah,

01:53.060 --> 01:55.500
and there eat bread, and prophesy there.

01:55.980 --> 02:01.180
But prophesy not again any more at Bethel,
for it is the king's chapel, and it is the

02:01.180 --> 02:01.820
king's court.

02:02.160 --> 02:06.560
Then answered Amos and said to Amaziah,
I was no prophet, neither was I a

02:06.560 --> 02:07.260
prophet's son.

02:07.780 --> 02:11.000
But I was an herdman and a gatherer of
sycamore fruit.

02:11.420 --> 02:13.700
And the Lord took me as I followed the
flock.

02:14.040 --> 02:18.820
And the Lord said unto me, Go,
prophesy unto my people Israel.

02:19.440 --> 02:22.400
Now therefore hear thou the word of the
Lord.

02:22.880 --> 02:28.380
Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel,
and drop not thy word against the house of

02:28.380 --> 02:28.700
Isaac.

02:29.200 --> 02:33.200
Therefore thus saith the Lord,
Thy wife shall be an harlot in the city,

02:33.600 --> 02:37.840
and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall
by the sword, and thy land shall be

02:37.840 --> 02:41.360
divided by line, and thou shalt die in a
polluted land.

02:41.780 --> 02:45.700
And Israel shall surely go into captivity
forth of his land.
