Amos 7:2-5 ▼

2 And it came to pass, when it had finished eating the grass of the land, that I said, “Lord YHWH, forgive, please! How can Jacob arise, for he is small?”

3 YHWH relented concerning this: “It will not come to pass,” said YHWH.

4 Thus has the Lord YHWH shown me: And behold, the Lord YHWH was calling to contend by fire, and it devoured the great deep, and it was devouring the portion.

5 And I said, “Lord YHWH, cease, please! How can Jacob arise, for he is small?”
