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.’

16 And now, hear the word of YHWH: You are saying, ‘Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not drop against the house of Isaac.’

17 Therefore, thus says YHWH: ‘Your wife will be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the sword. And your land will be divided by a line and You will die in an unclean land, and Israel will surely go into exile away from his land!’”
