Amos 7:7 Context
5Then said I, O Lord God , cease, I beseech thee, by whom shal Iacob arise? for he is small. 6The Lord repented for this. This also shall not bee, saith the Lord God. 7¶ Thus hee shewed mee, and behold, the Lord stood vpon a wall made by a plumbline, with a plumbline in his hand. 8And the Lord said vnto mee, Amos, what seest thou? And I sayd, A plumb-line. Then sayd the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumb-line in the midst of my people Israel, I will not againe passe by them any more. 9And the high places of Isaac shall be desolate, and the Sanctuaries of Israel shalbe laide waste: and I will rise against the house of Ieroboam with the sword.
