12 And Amaziah said to Amos: “Seer, go! Flee for yourself to the land of Judah, and eat bread there, and prophesy there. 13 And at Bethel you will not continue to prophesy anymore, for it is the sanctuary of the king, and it is the house of the kingdom.” 14 And Amos answered and said to Amaziah, “I was not a prophet, nor was I the son of a prophet, but I was a herdsman and a tender of sycamore-fig trees. 15 And YHWH took me away from following the herd, and YHWH said to me: ‘Go, prophesy to My people Israel.’ Amos 7:12-15, Berean Literal Bible.
