Amos 7:16 in Context — Amos 7
14 Então Amós respondeu a Amazias: Eu não era profeta, nem filho de profeta; mas eu era criador de gado, e colhedor de frutos de sicômoros.
15 Porém o SENHOR me tomou do trabalho com o gado, e o SENHOR me disse: Vai, e profetiza a meu povo Israel.
16 Agora pois, ouve a palavra do SENHOR. Tu dizes: Não profetizes contra Israel, nem fales contra a casa de Isaque.
17 Por isso, assim diz o SENHOR: Tua mulher se prostituirá na cidade, teus filhos e tuas filhas cairão à espada, e tua terra será repartida; tu morrerás em uma terra impura, e Israel será levado cativo de sua terra.
