Thus hath the Lord
GOD
shewed
unto me: and behold a basket
of summer fruit.
And he said,
Amos,
what seest
thou? And I said,
A basket
of summer fruit.
Then said
the LORD
unto me, The end
is come
upon my people
of Israel;
I will not again
pass
by them any more.

And the songs
of the temple
shall be howlings
in that day,
saith
the Lord
GOD:
there shall be many
dead bodies
in every place;
they shall cast them forth
with silence.
Hear
this, O ye that swallow up
the needy,
even to make
the poor
of the land
to fail,
Saying,
When will the new moon
be gone,
that we may sell
corn?
and the sabbath,
that we may set forth
wheat,
making the ephah
small,
and the shekel
great,
and falsifying
the balances
by deceit?

That we may buy
the poor
for silver,
and the needy
for a pair of shoes;
yea, and sell
the refuse
of the wheat?
The LORD
hath sworn
by the excellency
of Jacob,
Surely I will never
forget
any of their works.
Shall not the land
tremble
for this, and every one mourn
that dwelleth
therein? and it shall rise up
wholly as a flood;
and it shall be cast out
and drowned,
as by the flood
of Egypt.
And it shall come to pass in that day,
saith
the Lord
GOD,
that I will cause the sun
to go down
at noon,
and I will darken
the earth
in the clear
day:
And I will turn
your feasts
into mourning,
and all your songs
into lamentation;
and I will bring up
sackcloth
upon all loins,
and baldness
upon every head;
and I will make
it as the mourning
of an only
son, and the end
thereof as a bitter
day.
baldness
φαλάκρωμα

Behold, the days
come,
saith
the Lord
GOD,
that I will send
a famine
in the land,
not a famine
of bread,
nor a thirst
for water,
but of hearing
the words
of the LORD:
thirst

And they shall wander
from sea
to sea,
and from the north
even to the east,
they shall run to and fro
to seek
the word
of the LORD,
and shall not find
it.
In that day
shall the fair
virgins
and young men
faint
for thirst.
They that swear
by the sin
of Samaria,
and say,
Thy god,
O Dan,
liveth;
and, The manner
of Beersheba
liveth;
even they shall fall,
and never rise up
again.
