Amos 4:6–11

“I gave you cleanness of teeth in all your cities,

and lack of bread in all your places,

yet you did not return to me,”

says the Lord.

“And I also withheld the rain from you

when there were yet three months to the harvest;

I would send rain upon one city,

and send no rain upon another city;

one field would be rained upon,

and the field on which it did not rain withered;

so two or three cities wandered to one city

to drink water, and were not satisfied;

yet you did not return to me,”

says the Lord.

“I smote you with blight and mildew;

I laid wastei

your gardens and your vineyards; your fig

trees and your olive trees the locust devoured;

yet you did not return to me,”

says the Lord.

10 “I sent among you a pestilence after the manner of Egypt;

I slew your young men with the sword;

I carried away your horses;j

and I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;

yet you did not return to me,”

says the Lord.

11 “I overthrew some of you,

as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,

and you were as a brand plucked out of the burning;

yet you did not return to me,”

says the Lord.
