1	Thus hath the Lord GOD shewed# unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
			2	And he said# , Amos, what seest# thou? And I said# , A basket of summer fruit. Then said# the LORD unto me, The end is come# upon my people of Israel; I will not again# pass# by them any more.
			3	And the songs of the temple shall be howlings# in that day, saith# the Lord GOD: there shall be many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast them forth# with silence# . [shall be howlings: Heb. shall howl] [with...: Heb. be silent]
			4	Hear# this, O ye that swallow up# the needy, even to make# the poor# # of the land to fail# ,
			5	Saying# , When will the new moon be gone# , that we may sell# corn? and the sabbath, that we may set forth# wheat, making the ephah small# , and the shekel great# , and falsifying# the balances by deceit? [new...: or, month] [set...: Heb. open] [falsifying...: Heb. perverting the balances of deceit]
			6	That we may buy# the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; yea , and sell# the refuse of the wheat?
			7	The LORD hath sworn# by the excellency of Jacob, Surely I will never forget# any of their works.
			8	Shall not the land tremble# for this, and every one mourn# that dwelleth# therein? and it shall rise up# wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out# and drowned# # # # , as by the flood of Egypt.
			9	And it shall come to pass in that day, saith# the Lord GOD, that I will cause the sun to go down# at noon, and I will darken# the earth in the clear day:
			10	And I will turn# your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up# sackcloth upon all loins, and baldness upon every head; and I will make# it as the mourning of an only son , and the end thereof as a bitter day.
			11	Behold, the days come# , saith# the Lord GOD, that I will send# a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing# the words of the LORD:
			12	And they shall wander# from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro# to seek# the word of the LORD, and shall not find# it .
			13	In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint# for thirst.
			14	They that swear# by the sin of Samaria, and say# , Thy god, O Dan, liveth; and, The manner of Beersheba liveth; even they shall fall# , and never rise up# again. [manner: Heb. way]
