Amos 3:3-8 - The Prophet's Task

³ Do two men walk together unless they have made an appointment?
⁴ Does a lion roar in the forest when he has no prey?
Does a young lion growl from his den unless he has captured something?
⁵ Does a bird fall into a trap on the ground when there is no bait in it?
Does a trap spring up from the earth when it captures nothing at all?
⁶ If a trumpet is blown in a city will not the people tremble?
If a calamity occurs in a city has not the Lord done it?
⁷ Surely the Lord God does nothing
Unless He reveals His secret counsel
To His servants the prophets.
⁸ A lion has roared! Who will not fear?
The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?
