Amos 8
8
1Thus has the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER) showed unto me: and behold a basket of summer fruit.
2And he said, ‘Amos [burden], what see youi? And I said, A basket of summer fruit. Then said the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) unto me, The end is come upon my people of Yisra’el [He Holds Onto The Heel Of God]; I will not again pass by them any more.
3And the songs of the temple shall be howlings in that day, says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER): [there shall be] many dead bodies in every place; they shall cast [them] forth with silence.
4Hear this, O you2f that swallow (to approve, commend, accept) up the needy, even to make the poor of the land to fail,
5Saying, When will the new moon be gone, that we may sell corn? and the Shabbat [Rest], that we may set forth wheat, making the eifah small, and the shekel great, and falsifying the balances by deceit?
6That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for a pair of shoes; [yes], and sell the refuse of the wheat?
7The Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) has sworn by the excellency of Ya’akov [Heal of God], Surely I will never forget any of their works.
8Shall not the land tremble for this, and everyone mourn that dwells in it? and it shall rise up wholly as a flood; and it shall be cast out and drowned, as [by] the flood of Mitzrayim [Egypt - The Narrow Place].
9And it shall come to pass in that day, says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER), that I will cause the sun to go down at noon, and I will darken the earth in the clear day:
10And I will turn your feasts into mourning, and all your songs into lamentation; and I will bring up sackcloth upon all waist, 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.
11Behold, the days come, says the Lord-Adonai [Greatest Above All Things] GOD-Yehōvih (THE FATHER), 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-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate):
12And 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-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), and shall not find [it].
13In that day shall the fair virgins and young men faint for thirst.
14They that swear by the sin of Shomron [watch mountain], and say, You1s god, O Dan [Judge], lives; and, The manner of Be’er-sheva [Well of the sevenfold Oath] lives; even they shall fall, and never rise up again.
