"Yet You Have Not Returned to Me"

Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:1 - Hear this word, you cows of Bashan who are on the mountain of Samaria,
Who oppress the poor, who crush the needy,
Who say to [fn]your husbands, “Bring now, that we may drink!”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:2 - The Lord [fn]GOD has sworn by His holiness,
“Behold, the days are coming upon you
When [fn]they will take you away with meat hooks,
And the last of you with fish hooks.

Each one straight before her,
And you [fn]will be cast to Harmon,” declares the LORD.

In Gilgal multiply transgression!
Bring your sacrifices every morning,
Your tithes every three days.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:5 - [fn]Offer a thank offering also from that which is leavened,
And proclaim freewill offerings, make them known.
For so you love to do, you sons of Israel,”
Declares the Lord GOD.

And lack of bread in all your places,
Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:7 - “Furthermore, I withheld the rain from you
While there were still three months until harvest.
Then I would send rain on one city
And on another city I would not send rain;
One part would be rained on,
While the part not rained on would dry up.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:8 - “So two or three cities would stagger to another city to drink water,
But would not be satisfied;
Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the LORD.

And the caterpillar was devouring
Your many gardens and vineyards, fig trees and olive trees;
Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:10 - “I sent a plague among you after the manner of Egypt;
I slew your young men by the sword along with your captured horses,
And I made the stench of your camp rise up in your nostrils;
Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:11 - “I overthrew you, as God overthrew Sodom and Gomorrah,
And you were like a firebrand snatched from a blaze;
Yet you have not returned to Me,” declares the LORD.
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:12 - “Therefore thus I will do to you, O Israel;
Because I will do this to you,
Prepare to meet your God, O Israel.”
Unchecked Copy BoxAmo 4:13 - For behold, He who forms mountains and creates the wind
And declares to man what are His thoughts,
He who makes dawn into darkness
And treads on the high places of the earth,
The LORD God of hosts is His name.
