Amos 7:15LXX
Orthodox Bible · LXX · Verse 15 of 17
"And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel."
In context
13But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it the king's chapel, and it the king's court.
14Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I no prophet, neither I a prophet's son; but I an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:
15And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.
16Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not against the house of Isaac.
17Therefore thus saith the LORD; Thy wife shall be an harlot in the city, and thy sons and thy daughters shall fall by the sword, and thy land shall be divided by line; and thou shalt die in a polluted land: and Israel shall surely go into captivity forth of his land.
