Amos 4:9-11
The Message
9 “I hit your crops with disease
and withered your orchards and gardens.
Locusts devoured your olive and fig trees,
but you continued to ignore me.”
God’s Decree.
10 “I revisited you with the old Egyptian plagues,
killed your choice young men and prize horses.
The stink of rot in your camps was so strong
that you held your noses—
But you didn’t notice me.
You continued to ignore me.”
God’s Decree.
11 “I hit you with earthquake and fire,
left you devastated like Sodom and Gomorrah.
You were like a burning stick
snatched from the flames.
But you never looked my way.
You continued to ignore me.”
God’s Decree.
Amos 4:9-11
New International Version
9 “Many times I struck your gardens and vineyards,
destroying them with blight and mildew.(A)
Locusts(B) devoured your fig and olive trees,(C)
yet you have not returned(D) to me,”
declares the Lord.
