Amos 3:2-4

New International Reader's Version

² “Out of all the families on earth
    I have chosen only you.
So I will punish you
    because you have committed so many sins.”

³ Do two people walk together
    unless they’ve agreed to do so?
⁴ Does a lion roar in the bushes
    when it doesn’t have any food?
Does it growl in its den
    when it hasn’t caught anything?
