Amos 4

1 He reproveth Israel for oppression, 4 for idolatry, 6 and for their incorrigibleness.

 4:1 ¶ Hear 8085 z8798 this x2088 word, 1697 ye kine 6510 of Bashan, 1316 that x834 [are] in the mountain 2022 of Samaria, 8111 which oppress 6231 z8802 the poor, 1800 which crush 7533 z8802 the needy, 34 which say 559 z8802 to their masters, 113 Bring, 935 z8685 and let us drink. 8354 z8799

 4:2 The Lord 136 GOD 3069 hath sworn 7650 z8738 by his holiness, 6944 that, x3588 lo, x2009 the days 3117 shall come 935 z8802 upon x5921 you, that he will take you away 5375 z8765 x853 with hooks, 6793 and your posterity 319 with fishhooks. 1729 5518

 4:3 And ye shall go out 3318 z8799 at the breaches, 6556 every 802 [cow at that which is] before x5048 her; and ye shall cast 7993 z8689 [them] into the palace, 2038 saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:4 ¶ Come 935 z8798 to Bethel, 1008 and transgress; 6586 z8798 at Gilgal 1537 multiply 7235 z8685 transgression; 6586 z8800 and bring 935 z8685 your sacrifices 2077 every morning, 1242 [and] your tithes 4643 after three 7969 years: 3117

 4:5 And offer y6999 z8763 a sacrifice x6999 of thanksgiving 8426 with x4480 leaven, 2557 and proclaim 7121 z8798 [and] publish 8085 z8685 the free offerings: 5071 for x3588 this 3651 liketh 157 z8804 you, O ye children 1121 of Israel, 3478 saith 5002 z8803 the Lord 136 GOD. 3069

 4:6 ¶ And I x589 also x1571 have given 5414 z8804 you cleanness 5356 of teeth 8127 in all x3605 your cities, 5892 and want 2640 of bread 3899 in all x3605 your places: 4725 yet have ye not x3808 returned 7725 z8804 unto x5704 me, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:7 And also x1571 I x595 have withholden 4513 z8804 x853 the rain 1653 from x4480 you, when [there were] yet x5750 three 7969 months 2320 to the harvest: 7105 and I caused it to rain 4305 z8689 upon x5921 one 259 city, 5892 and caused it not to rain 4305 z8686 x3808 upon x5921 another 259 city: 5892 one 259 piece 2513 was rained y4305 z8735 upon, x4305 and the piece 2513 whereupon x834 x5921 it rained 4305 z8686 not x3808 withered. 3001 z8799

 4:8 So two 8147 [or] three 7969 cities 5892 wandered 5128 z8804 unto x413 one 259 city, 5892 to drink 8354 z8800 water; 4325 but they were not x3808 satisfied: 7646 z8799 yet have ye not x3808 returned 7725 z8804 unto x5704 me, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:9 I have smitten 5221 z8689 you with blasting 7711 and mildew: 3420 when your gardens 1593 and your vineyards 3754 and your fig trees 8384 and your olive trees 2132 increased, 7235 z8687 the palmerworm 1501 devoured 398 z8799 [them]: yet have ye not x3808 returned 7725 z8804 unto x5704 me, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:10 I have sent 7971 z8765 among you the pestilence 1698 after the manner 1870 of Egypt: 4714 your young men 970 have I slain 2026 z8804 with the sword, 2719 and have taken away 7628 x5973 your horses; 5483 and I have made the stink 889 of your camps 4264 to come up 5927 z8686 unto your nostrils: 639 yet have ye not x3808 returned 7725 z8804 unto x5704 me, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:11 I have overthrown 2015 z8804 [some] of you, as God 430 overthrew 4114 x853 Sodom 5467 and Gomorrah, 6017 and ye were x1961 as a firebrand 181 plucked x5337 out y5337 z8716 of the burning: 8316 x4480 yet have ye not x3808 returned 7725 z8804 unto x5704 me, saith 5002 z8803 the LORD. 3068

 4:12 Therefore x3651 thus x3541 will I do 6213 z8799 unto thee, O Israel: 3478 [and] because 6118 x3588 I will do 6213 z8799 this x2063 unto thee, prepare 3559 z8734 to meet 7125 z8800 thy God, 430 O Israel. 3478

 4:13 For, x3588 lo, x2009 he that formeth 3335 z8802 the mountains, 2022 and createth 1254 z8802 the wind, 7307 and declareth 5046 z8688 unto man 120 what x4100 [is] his thought, 7808 that maketh 6213 z8802 the morning 7837 darkness, 5890 and treadeth 1869 z8802 upon x5921 the high places 1116 of the earth, 776 The LORD, 3068 The God 430 of hosts, 6635 [is] his name. 8034
