This land is not able
to bear God's words,
And yet they must be said:
Locust swarms will eat
the people's portion of the
harvest,
Fires rampant will devour
the people's last vestiges of
peace,
Swords agleam will lay waste
the people's remaining
sanctuary.
And a plumb line will hang
in the midst of the people's
remembering:
The Lord God will not pass
by here
again.
Amos 7:1-9 |
