Amos 3:10 in Context — Amos 3

8 Bramando el león, ¿quién no temerá? hablando el Señor Jehová, ¿quién no profetizará?

9 Haced pregonar sobre los palacios de Azoto, y sobre los palacios de tierra de Egipto, y decid: Reuníos sobre los montes de Samaria, y ved muchas opresiones en medio de ella, y violencias en medio de ella.

10 Y no saben hacer lo recto, dice Jehová, atesorando rapiñas y despojos en sus palacios.

11 Por tanto, el Señor Jehová ha dicho así: Un enemigo [habrá] aún por todos lados de la tierra, y derribará de ti tu fortaleza, y tus palacios serán saqueados.

12 Así ha dicho Jehová: De la manera que el pastor libra de la boca del león dos piernas, ó la punta de una oreja, así escaparán los hijos de Israel que moran en Samaria en el rincón de la cama, y al canto del lecho.
