Amos 8:6-8

Good News Translation

⁶ We can sell worthless wheat at a high price. We'll find someone poor who can't pay his debts, not even the price of a pair of sandals, and we'll buy him as a slave.”

⁷ The Lord, the God of Israel, has sworn, “I will never forget their evil deeds. ⁸ And so the earth will quake, and everyone in the land will be in distress. The whole country will be shaken; it will rise and fall like the Nile River.
