Amos 3:14

Israel's Guilt And Punishment

¹³ Hear ye, and protest in the house of Jacob, said the Lord GOD, the God of the hosts, ¹⁴ “For on the day that I punish Israel’s transgressions,
I will also punish the altars of Bethel;
The horns of the altar will be cut off
And they will fall to the ground.
¹⁵ And I will smite the winter house with the summer house, and the houses of ivory shall perish, and many houses shall be cut off, said the LORD.
