Amos 8:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² People will wander from the Mediterranean Sea to the Dead Sea.
    They will wander from the north to the east.
They will search for the word of the Lord.
    But they won’t find it.
¹³ At that time the beautiful young women and the young men
    will become weak from thirst.
¹⁴ They made promises by the idol in Samaria.
    They said, ‘As surely as the god of Dan lives . . .’
    And they said, ‘As surely as the god of Beersheba^[a] lives, we promise . . .’
So they will fall
    and never get up again.”
