The King James Version Bible

Amos 7:4-7

  1. 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.

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

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

  4. Thus he shewed me: and, behold, the LORD stood upon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand.
