New Testament

Amos 4:9-13 New American Bible, Revised Edition (NABRE)

9. I struck you with blight and mildew;locusts devoured your gardens and vineyards,the caterpillar consumed your fig trees and olive trees;Yet you did not return to me—oracle of the Lord.

10. I sent upon you pestilence like that of Egypt;with the sword I killed your young men and your captured horses,and to your nostrils I brought the stench of your camps;Yet you did not return to me—oracle of the Lord.

11. I overthrew youas when God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah;you were like a brand plucked from the fire,Yet you did not return to me—oracle of the Lord.

12. Therefore thus I will do to you, Israel:and since I will deal thus with you,prepare to meet your God, O Israel!

13. The one who forms mountains and creates winds,and declares to mortals their thoughts;Who makes dawn into darknessand strides upon the heights of the earth,the Lord, the God of hosts, is his name!
