Amos 4:1-3

New American Standard Bible 1995

4 Hear this word, you cows of ^(A)Bashan who are on the ^(B)mountain of Samaria,
Who ^(C)oppress the poor, who crush the needy,
Who say to ^[a]your husbands, “Bring now, that we may ^(D)drink!”
² The Lord ^[b]God has ^(E)sworn by His ^(F)holiness,
“Behold, the days are coming upon you
When ^[c]they will take you away with ^(G)meat hooks,
And the last of you with ^(H)fish hooks.
³ “You will ^(I)go out through breaches in the walls,
Each one straight before her,
And you ^[d]will be cast to Harmon,” declares the Lord.
