'House of Israel' in the Bible

Listen to this message that I am singing for you, a lament, house of Israel:

For the Lord God says:The city that marches out a thousand strongwill have only a hundred left,and the one that marches out a hundred strongwill have only ten left in the house of Israel.

For the Lord says to the house of Israel:Seek Me and live!

“House of Israel, was it sacrifices and grain offerings that you presented to Me during the 40 years in the wilderness?

Woe to those who are at ease in Zionand to those who feel secure on the hill of Samaria—the notable people in this first of the nations,those the house of Israel comes to.

But look, I am raising up a nationagainst you, house of Israel—this is the declaration of the Lord,the God of Hosts—and they will oppress youfrom the entrance of Hamathto the Brook of the Arabah.

Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent word to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you right here in the house of Israel. The land cannot endure all his words,

for I am about to give the command,and I will shake the house of Israelamong all the nations,as one shakes a sieve,but not a pebble will fall to the ground.
