Amos 3:1 - Forerunner Commentary

Amos 3:1

Authority of the Prophet’s Message

1 Hear this word that the Lord has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying:

2 “You^a only have I known of all the families of the earth;
^bTherefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.”

3 Can two walk together, unless they are agreed?

4 Will a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey?
Will a young lion¹ cry out of his den, if he has caught nothing?

5 Will a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no¹ trap for it?
Will a snare spring up from the earth, if it has caught nothing at all?
