Chap. VII.
In three visions manie miseries are reueled, which shal come vpon both the
kingdomes. 10. A false priest of Bethel accusing the prophet of sedition,
and endeuouring to chase him away, 14. is by him forewarned of miseries
to his familie, and death to himself.
1 These thinges hath our Lord God shewed to me: and
loe the former note of the locust in the beginning of thinges
that spring of the later rayne, and behold the later rayne after
the kings mowing.
2 And it came to passe: after it had finished
to eate the grasse of the land, I sayd: O Lord God be
propicious I beseech thee: who shal rayse vp Iacob, because
he is a litle one?
3 Our Lord hath had pitie vpon this: note It shal
not be, sayth our Lord.
4 These thinges hath our Lord God
called iudgement vnto note fyre, and it deuoured the great depth
-- --
and it did eate a part together.
5 And I sayd: Lord God be
quiet I besech thee: who shal rayse vp Iacob, because he is a
litle one?
6 Our Lord had pitie vpon this: Yea this also shal not
be, sayth our Lord God.
7 These thinges hath our Lord shewed
to me: and loe our Lord standing vpon a wal plastered, and in
his hand note a masons truel.
8 And our Lord sayd to me:? What
seest thou Amos? And I sayd: A masons truel. And our Lord
sayd: Behold I wil lay downe the truel in the middes of my
people Israel: I wil adde no more to plaster it ouer.
9 And the
excelses of the idol shal be throwen dowen, and the sanctifications
of Israel shal be made desolate: and I wil rise vpon the
house of Ieroboam with the sword.
10 And Amasias the priest
of Bethel sent to Ieroboam the king of Israel, saying: Amos
note hath rebelled against thee in the middes of the house of Israel:
the land wil not be able to susteyne al his wordes.
11 For
thus saith Amos: note Ieroboam shal dye by the sword, and Israel
shal depart captiue out of their land.
12 And Amasias sayd to
Amos: Thou that seest, goe, flee into the land of Iuda: & eate
bread there, and thou shalt prophecie there.
13 And in Bethel
thou shalt adde no more to prophecie: because it is the sanctification
of the king, and it is the house of the kingdom.
14 And
Amos answered, and sayd to Amasias: I am not a prophete note,
and I am not the sonne of a prophet: but an heardsman am I
plucking sycomores.
15 And our Lord tooke me when I folowed
the flocke, and our Lord sayd to me: Goe, prophecie
to my people Israel.
16 And now heare the word of our Lord:
Thou sayest: Thou shalt not prophecie vpon Israel, and thou
shalt not distil vpon the house of the idol.
17 Therfore thus
saith our Lord: Thy wife shal fornicate in the citie, and thy
sonnes, and thy daughters shal fal by the sword, & thy ground
shal be measured with a corde: and thou shalt dye in a polluted
land, and Israel shal depart captiue out of their land.
