The Vision of the Plumb Line

This is what the Lord showed me: The Lord stood by a straight wall. He had a plumb line in his hand. The Lord said to me, “Amos, what do you see?”

I said, “A plumb line.”

Then the Lord said, “See, I will put a plumb line among my people Israel to show how crooked they are. I will not feel sorry for them any longer.

“The places where Isaac’s descendants worship will be destroyed.
    Israel’s holy places will be turned into ruins.
    And I will attack King Jeroboam’s family with the sword.”
