|---|---|---|
Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I [was] no prophet, neither [was] I a prophet's son; but I [was] an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:
|
And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
|
Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not [thy word] against the house of Isaac.
