Amos 6:9-11
New King James Version
9 Then it shall come to pass, that if ten men remain in one house, they shall die. 10 And when [a]a relative of the dead, with one who will burn the bodies, picks up the [b]bodies to take them out of the house, he will say to one inside the house, “Are there any more with you?”
Then someone will say, “None.”
And he will say, (A)“Hold your tongue! (B)For we dare not mention the name of the Lord.”
11 For behold, (C)the Lord gives a command:
(D)He will break the great house into bits,
And the little house into pieces.
Amos 6:9-11
New International Version
9 If ten(A) people are left in one house, they too will die. 10 And if the relative who comes to carry the bodies out of the house to burn them[a](B) asks anyone who might be hiding there, “Is anyone else with you?” and he says, “No,” then he will go on to say, “Hush!(C) We must not mention the name of the Lord.”
