Amos 3:14 - Forerunner Commentary

Amos 3:14

12 Thus says the Lord:
“As a shepherd¹ takes from the mouth of a lion
Two legs or a piece of an ear,
So shall the children of Israel be taken out
Who dwell in Samaria—
In the corner of a bed and¹ on the edge of a couch!

13 Hear and testify against the house of Jacob,”
Says the Lord God, the God of hosts,

14 “That in the day I punish Israel for their transgressions,
I will also visit destruction on the altars of ^aBethel;
And the horns of the altar shall be cut off
And fall to the ground.

15 I will¹ destroy ^athe winter house along with ^bthe summer house;
The ^chouses of ivory shall perish,
And the great houses shall have an end,”
Says the Lord.
