Amos 7:4

1 Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: and, behold, he formed locusts in the beginning of the shooting up of the latter growth; and, behold, it was the latter growth after the king`s harvest.

2 It happened that, when they made an end of eating the grass of the land, then I said, Lord Yahweh, forgive, I beg you: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.

3 Yahweh repented concerning this: It shall not be, says Yahweh.

4 Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me: and, behold, the Lord Yahweh called to content by fire; and it devoured the great deep, and would have eaten up the land.

5 Then said I, Lord Yahweh, cease, I beg you: how shall Jacob stand? for he is small.

6 Yahweh repented concerning this: this also shall not be, says the Lord Yahweh.

7 Thus he showed me: and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb-line, with a plumb-line in his hand.
