Amos 7:12 in Context — Amos 7

10 Alors Amatsia, prêtre de Béthel, fit dire à Jéroboam, roi d’Israël: Amos conspire contre toi au milieu de la maison d’Israël; le pays ne peut supporter toutes ses paroles.

11 Car voici ce que dit Amos: Jéroboam mourra par l’épée, et Israël sera emmené captif loin de son pays.

12 Et Amatsia dit à Amos: Homme à visions, va-t-en, fuis dans le pays de Juda; manges-y ton pain, et là tu prophétiseras.

13 Mais ne continue pas à prophétiser à Béthel, car c’est un sanctuaire du roi, et c’est une maison royale.

14 Amos répondit à Amatsia: Je ne suis ni prophète, ni fils de prophète; mais je suis berger, et je cultive des sycomores.
