Amos 6:8-10

Expanded Bible

⁸ The Lord God ·made this promise [^Lhas sworn by himself]; the Lord God ·All-Powerful [Almighty; of Heaven’s Armies; ^Tof hosts] says:

⁹ ·At that time there might be only [^LIf there are] ten people left alive in just one house, but they will also die. ¹⁰ When the relatives come to take the bodies out of the house to ·bury them [or burn them; or anoint them for burial], one of them will call to ·the other [or any survivors] and ask, “Are there any other dead bodies with you?”

That person will answer, “No.”

Then the one who asked will say, “Hush! We must not say the name of the Lord.” [^CThis could mean do not say the Lord’s name lest he return with more judgment, or do not pronounce a eulogy using the Lord’s name on those already judged by God, or do not acknowledge the Lord because of resentment of his judgment.]
