Amos 7:7-9

New Century Version

The Vision of the Plumb Line

⁷ This is what he showed me: The Lord stood by a straight wall, with a plumb line in his hand. ⁸ The Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?”

I said, “A plumb line.”

Then the Lord said, “See, I will put a plumb line among my people Israel to show how crooked they are. I will not look the other way any longer.
