Amos 8:11
Behold, the days come, saith the Lord GOD, that I will send a famine in the land, not a famine of bread, nor a thirst for water, but of hearing the words of the LORD: And they shall wander from sea to sea, and from the north even to the east, they shall run to and fro to seek the word of the LORD, and shall not find.

Zep 2:1 Gather yourselves together [07197] (8703), yea, gather together [07197] (8798), O nation [01471] not desired [03700] (8737); Zep 2:2 Before the decree [02706] bring forth [03205] (8800), before the day [03117] pass [05674] (8804) as the chaff [04671], before [03808] the fierce [02740] anger [0639] of the LORD [03068] come [0935] (8799) upon you, before the day [03117] of the LORD'S [03068] anger [0639] come [0935] (8799) upon you. Zep 2:3 Seek [01245] (8761) ye the LORD [03068], all ye meek [06035] of the earth [0776], which have wrought [06466] (8804) his judgment [04941]; seek [01245] (8761) righteousness [06664], seek [01245] (8761) meekness [06038]: it may be [0194] ye shall be hid [05641] (8735) in the day [03117] of the LORD'S [03068] anger [0639]. Zep 2:4 For Gaza [05804] shall be forsaken [05800] (8803), and Ashkelon [0831] a desolation [08077]: they shall drive out [01644] (8762) Ashdod [0795] at the noon day [06672], and Ekron [06138] shall be rooted up [06131] (8735). Zep 2:5 Woe [01945] unto the inhabitants [03427] (8802) of the sea [03220] coast [02256], the nation [01471] of the Cherethites [03774]! the word [01697] of the LORD [03068] is against you; O Canaan [03667], the land [0776] of the Philistines [06430], I will even destroy [06] (8689) thee, that there shall be no inhabitant [03427] (8802). Zep 2:6 And the sea [03220] coast [02256] shall be dwellings [05116] and cottages [03741] for shepherds [07462] (8802), and folds [01448] for flocks [06629]. Zep 2:7 And the coast [02256] shall be for the remnant [07611] of the house [01004] of Judah [03063]; they shall feed [07462] (8799) thereupon: in the houses [01004] of Ashkelon [0831] shall they lie down [07257] (8799) in the evening [06153]: for the LORD [03068] their God [0430] shall visit [06485] (8799) them, and turn away [07725] (8804) their captivity [07622] (8675) [07622]. Zep 2:8 I have heard [08085] (8804) the reproach [02781] of Moab [04124], and the revilings [01421] of the children [01121] of Ammon [05983], whereby they have reproached [02778] (8765) my people [05971], and magnified [01431] (8686) [themselves] against their border [01366]. Zep 2:9 Therefore [as] I live [02416], saith [05002] (8803) the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635], the God [0430] of Israel [03478], Surely Moab [04124] shall be as Sodom [05467], and the children [01121] of Ammon [05983] as Gomorrah [06017], [even] the breeding [04476] of nettles [02738], and saltpits [04379] [04417], and a perpetual [05704] [05769] desolation [08077]: the residue [07611] of my people [05971] shall spoil [0962] (8799) them, and the remnant [03499] of my people [01471] shall possess [05157] (8799) them. Zep 2:10 This shall they have for their pride [01347], because they have reproached [02778] (8765) and magnified [01431] (8686) [themselves] against the people [05971] of the LORD [03068] of hosts [06635]. Zep 2:11 The LORD [03068] [will be] terrible [03372] (8737) unto them: for he will famish [07329] (8804) all the gods [0430] of the earth [0776]; and [men] shall worship [07812] (8691) him, every one [0376] from his place [04725], [even] all the isles [0339] of the heathen [01471]. Zep 2:12 Ye Ethiopians [03569] also, ye [01992] shall be slain [02491] by my sword [02719]. Zep 2:13 And he will stretch out [05186] (8799) his hand [03027] against the north [06828], and destroy [06] (8762) Assyria [0804]; and will make [07760] (8799) Nineveh [05210] a desolation [08077], and dry [06723] like a wilderness [04057]. Zep 2:14 And flocks [05739] shall lie down [07257] (8804) in the midst [08432] of her, all the beasts [02416] of the nations [01471]: both the cormorant [06893] and the bittern [07090] shall lodge [03885] (8799) in the upper lintels [03730] of it; [their] voice [06963] shall sing [07891] (8787) in the windows [02474]; desolation [02721] shall be in the thresholds [05592]: for he shall uncover [06168] (8765) the cedar work [0731]. Zep 2:15 This is the rejoicing [05947] city [05892] that dwelt [03427] (8802) carelessly [0983], that said [0559] (8802) in her heart [03824], I [am], and there is none beside [0657] me: how is she become a desolation [08047], a place for beasts [02416] to lie down in [04769]! every one that passeth by [05674] (8802) her shall hiss [08319] (8799), and wag [05128] (8686) his hand [03027].Return to top of page
