The King James Version Bible

Amos 7:13-16

  1. But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king's chapel, and it is the king's court.

  2. 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:

  3. And the LORD took me as I followed the flock, and the LORD said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.

  4. 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.
