Amos 3:8-10

Easy-to-Read Version

⁸ When a lion roars, people are frightened. When the Lord God speaks, a prophet must prophesy.

^9-10 Go to the high towers in Ashdod^[a] and in Egypt and announce this message from the Lord: “Come together on the mountains of Samaria. See the great confusion there because the people don’t know how to live right. See how cruel they are to others. They take things from people to hide in their high towers. Their treasuries are filled with the things they have taken in war.”
