She has fallen;
Virgin Israel will never rise again.
She lies abandoned on her land,
with no one to raise her up.

Therefore, because you trample on the poor
and exact a grain tax from him,
you will never live in the houses of cut stone
you have built;
you will never drink the wine
from the lush vineyards
you have planted.

Justice must flow like torrents of water, righteous actions like a stream that never dries up.

And the Lord said to me, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A weighted line. Then the Lord said, See, I will let down a weighted line among my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin:

And he said, Amos, what do you see? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then the Lord said to me, The end has come to my people Israel; never again will my eyes be shut to their sin.

The LORD hath sworn by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget any of their works.

They that swear by the sin of Samaria, and say, Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beersheba liveth; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.

All the sinners among My people
who say: “Disaster will never overtake
or confront us,”
will die by the sword.

I will plant them on their land,
and they will never again be uprooted
from the land I have given them.
Yahweh your God has spoken.
