The King James Version Bible

Amos 7:2-6

  1. And it came to pass, that when they had made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, O Lord GOD, forgive, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.

  2. The LORD repented for this: It shall not be, saith the LORD.

  3. Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed unto me: and, behold, the Lord GOD called to contend by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and did eat up a part.

  4. Then said I, O Lord GOD, cease, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.

  5. The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be, saith the Lord GOD.
