1 Thus the Lord God showed me: Behold, a basket of summer fruit.
2 And He said, “Amos, what do you see?” So I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me:
a“The end has come upon My people Israel;
bI will not pass by them anymore.

bI will not pass by them anymore.
3 And athe songs of the temple
Shall be wailing in that day,”
Says the Lord God—
“Many dead bodies everywhere,
bThey shall be thrown out in silence.”

4 Hear this, you who1 swallow up the needy,
And make the poor of the land fail,
And make the poor of the land fail,
