A vision of a plumb line

This is what the Lord showed me: The Lord was standing by a wall, with a plumb line in his hand. The Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?”

“A plumb line,” I said.
Then the Lord said,
“See, I am setting a plumb line
    in the middle of my people Israel.

            and the holy places of Israel will be laid waste,
            and I will rise against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.”
