Amos 6:12

study / save / / memorize

The LORD Abhors the Pride of Israel
8The Sovereign LORD has sworn by himself—the LORD God Almighty declares:
“I abhor the pride of Jacob
and detest his fortresses;
I will deliver up the city
and everything in it.”

9If ten men are left in one house, they too will die.10And if a relative who is to burn the bodies comes to carry them out of the house and asks anyone still hiding there, “Is anyone with you?” and he says, “No,” then he will say, “Hush! We must not mention the name of the LORD.”

11For the LORD has given the command,
and he will smash the great house into pieces
and the small house into bits.

12Do horses run on the rocky crags?
Does one plow there with oxen?
But you have turned justice into poison
and the fruit of righteousness into bitterness—
13you who rejoice in the conquest of Lo DebarLo Debar means nothing.
and say, “Did we not take KarnaimKarnaim means horns; horn here symbolizes strength. by our own strength?”

14For the LORD God Almighty declares,
“I will stir up a nation against you, O house of Israel,
that will oppress you all the way
from LeboOr from the entrance to Hamath to the valley of the Arabah.”
