¹³ but never again prophesy at Bethel, for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a temple of the kingdom.’

¹⁴ Then Amos answered Amaziah, ‘I am^[a] no prophet, nor a prophet’s son; but I am^[b] a herdsman, and a dresser of sycomore trees, ¹⁵ and the Lord took me from following the flock, and the Lord said to me, “Go, prophesy to my people Israel.”
