Amos 7:4-6

New International Reader's Version

⁴ The Lord and King gave me a second vision. He was using fire to punish his people. It dried up the deep waters. It burned the land up. ⁵ Then I cried out, “Lord and King, please stop! How can Jacob’s people continue? They are such a weak nation!”

⁶ So the Lord had pity on them.

“I will let them continue for now,” the Lord and King said.
