Amos 2:10

Judgment On Israel

⁹ For Israel's sake I destroyed the Amorites. They were as tall as cedars and as strong as oaks, but I destroyed the fruit on their branches and their roots in the ground. ¹⁰ I brought you up from the land of Egypt; I led you through the wilderness for forty years so you could take the Amorites' land as your own. ¹¹ I made some of your sons prophets and some of your young men Nazirites. Is this not true, you Israelites?" The Lord is speaking!
