Amos 3

Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, people of Israel, against the whole family that I brought up from the land of Egypt: “You alone have I known among all the families of the earth;
therefore I will punish you for all your iniquities.” Do two walk together unless they have agreed to meet? Does a lion roar in the forest when it has no prey?
Does a young lion give voice from its den unless it has caught something? Does a bird fall into a trap on the ground when there is no snare for it?
Does a trap spring up from the ground without catching anything? If a horn sounds in a city, do the people not tremble?
If disaster strikes a city, has the LORD not brought it about? For the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing his counsel to his servants the prophets. A lion has roared—who will not fear?
The Lord GOD has spoken—who will not prophesy? Proclaim over the palaces of Ashdod and over the palaces in the land of Egypt, and say, “Gather on the mountains of Samaria and see the great turmoil within her and the oppression in her midst.” “They do not know how to do what is right,” declares the LORD, “those who store up violence and plunder in their palaces.” Therefore this is what the Lord GOD says: “An enemy all around the land!
He will bring down your strength, and your palaces will be plundered.” This is what the LORD says: “As a shepherd rescues two legs or a piece of an ear from the lion’s mouth, so will the people of Israel be rescued, those who sit in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus on a couch. Hear and testify against the house of Jacob,” declares the Lord GOD, the God of hosts. “For on the day I punish Israel for his transgressions, I will punish the altars of Bethel.
The horns of the altar will be cut off and fall to the ground. I will strike the winter house together with the summer house.
The ivory houses will perish, and many houses will come to an end,” declares the LORD.
