Amos 7:16 in Context — Amos 7
14 Amos répondit à Amatsia: Je ne suis ni prophète, ni fils de prophète; mais je suis berger, et je cultive des sycomores.
15 L’Éternel m’a pris derrière le troupeau, et l’Éternel m’a dit: Va, prophétise à mon peuple d’Israël.
16 Écoute maintenant la parole de l’Éternel, toi qui dis: Ne prophétise pas contre Israël, et ne parle pas contre la maison d’Isaac.
17 A cause de cela, voici ce que dit l’Éternel: Ta femme se prostituera dans la ville, tes fils et tes filles tomberont par l’épée, ton champ sera partagé au cordeau; et toi, tu mourras sur une terre impure, et Israël sera emmené captif loin de son pays.
