| Amos 7:1 | This is what the Lord God let me see: and I saw that, when the growth of the late grass was starting, he made locusts; it was the late growth after the king's cutting was done. | | Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: and, behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, behold, it was the latter growth after the king's harvest. |
| Amos 7:2 | And it came about that after they had taken all the grass of the land, I said, O Lord God, have mercy: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small. | | It happened that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, Lord Yahweh, forgive, I beg you: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small. |
| Amos 7:3 | The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, It will not be. | | Yahweh repented concerning this: It shall not be, says Yahweh. |
| Amos 7:4 | This is what the Lord let me see: and I saw that the Lord God sent for a great fire to be the instrument of his punishment; and, after burning up the great deep, it was about to put an end to the Lord's heritage. | | Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: and, behold, the Lord Yahweh called to content by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land. |
| Amos 7:5 | Then said I, O Lord God, let there be an end: how will Jacob be able to keep his place? for he is small. | | Then said I, Lord Yahweh, cease, I beg you: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small. |
| Amos 7:6 | The Lord, changing his purpose about this, said, And this will not be. | | Yahweh repented concerning this: this also shall not be, says the Lord Yahweh. |
| Amos 7:7 | This is what he let me see: and I saw the Lord stationed by a wall made straight by a weighted line, and he had a weighted line in his hand. | | Thus he showed me: and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand. |
| Amos 7:8 | And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin: | | Yahweh said to me, Amos, what see you? I said, A plumb-line. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel; I will not again pass by them any more; |
| Amos 7:9 | And the high places of Isaac will be unpeopled, and the holy places of Israel will be made waste; and I will come up against the family of Jeroboam with the sword. | | and the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the sanctuaries of Israel shall be laid waste; and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword. |
| Amos 7:10 | Then Amaziah, the priest of Beth-el, sent to Jeroboam, king of Israel, saying, Amos has made designs against you among the people of Israel: the land is troubled by his words. | | Then Amaziah the priest of Beth-el sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, Amos has conspired against you in the midst of the house of Israel: the land is not able to bear all his words. |
| Amos 7:11 | For Amos has said, Jeroboam will be put to the sword, and Israel will certainly be taken away as a prisoner out of his land. | | For thus Amos says, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land. |
| Amos 7:12 | And Amaziah said to Amos, O seer, go in flight into the land of Judah, and there get your living by working as a prophet: | | Also Amaziah said to Amos, you seer, go, flee you away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there: |
| Amos 7:13 | But be a prophet no longer at Beth-el: for it is the holy place of the king, and the king's house. | | but don't prophesy again any more at Bethel; for it is the king's sanctuary, and it is a royal house. |
| Amos 7:14 | Then Amos in answer said to Amaziah, I am no prophet, or one of the sons of the prophets; I am a herdman and one who takes care of sycamore-trees: | | Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdsman, and a dresser of sycamore-trees: |
| Amos 7:15 | And the Lord took me from the flock, and the Lord said to me, Go, be a prophet to my people Israel. | | and Yahweh took me from following the flock, and Yahweh said to me, Go, prophesy to my people Israel. |
| Amos 7:16 | Now then, give ear to the word of the Lord: You say, Be no prophet to Israel, and say not a word against the people of Isaac. | | Now therefore hear you the word of Yahweh: You say, Don't prophesy against Israel, and don't drop [your word] against the house of Isaac; |
| Amos 7:17 | So this is what the Lord has said: Your wife will be a loose woman in the town, and your sons and your daughters will be put to the sword, and your land will be cut up into parts by a line; and you yourself will come to your end in an unclean land, and Israel will certainly be taken away a prisoner out of his land. | | therefore thus says Yahweh: Your wife shall be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you yourself shall die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land. |
