Amos 8:3

A Basket Of Ripe Fruit

² And He saith, 'What art thou seeing, Amos?' and I say, 'A basket of summer-fruit.' And Jehovah saith unto me: 'The end hath come unto My people Israel, I do not add any more to pass over to it. ³ And howled have songstresses of a palace in that day, An affirmation of the Lord Jehovah, Many are the carcases, into any place throw -- hush! ⁴ Hear this, ye who are swallowing up the needy, To cause to cease the poor of the land,

In that Day

Says the Lord

Declares The Lord
