Amos 2 Third Summons TO HEAR THE WORD OF THE LORD

[Instrumental] [Verse] Hear this word which I utter concerning you, this dirge, house of Israel: She is fallen, to rise no more, virgin Israel; She lies abandoned on her land, with no one to raise her up. For thus says the Lord GOD to the house of Israel: The city that marched out with a thousand shall be left with a hundred, Another that marched out with a hundred shall be left with ten. For thus says the LORD to the house of Israel: Seek me, that you may live, but do not seek Bethel; Do not come to Gilgal, and do not cross over to Beer-sheba; For Gilgal shall be led into exile and Bethel shall be no more. [Instrumental] [Bridge] Seek the LORD, that you may live, lest he flare up against the house of Joseph like a fire that shall consume the house of Israel, with no one to quench it. [Instrumental] [Chorus] The one who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns darkness into dawn, and darkens day into night; Who summons the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the surface of the earth; Who makes destruction fall suddenly upon the stronghold and brings ruin upon the fortress, the LORD is his name. [Instrumental] [End]
