Amos 4:10-12
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition
10 I sent among you a pestilence after the manner of Egypt;
I killed your young men with the sword;
I carried away your horses;[a]
and I made the stench of your camp go up into your nostrils;
yet you did not return to me,
says the Lord.
11 I overthrew some of you,
as when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
and you were like a brand snatched from the fire;
yet you did not return to me,
says the Lord.
12 Therefore, thus I will do to you, O Israel;
because I will do this to you,
prepare to meet your God, O Israel!
