Amos 3:14

Israel's Guilt And Punishment

¹³ "Listen and testify against the house of Jacob," {declares} my Lord Yahweh, the God of hosts. ¹⁴ "For on the day I punish Israel for {its transgression}, I will also punish the altars of Bethel and the horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground. ¹⁵ I will ruin the winter house as well as the summer house, and the houses of ivory will perish and the great houses shall come to an end," {declares} Yahweh.
