these_o three_o unwelcome_a prophecy_n likely_a to_o be_v many_o way_n prejudicial_a to_o he_o &_o his_o fellow_n priest_n if_o it_o shall_v be_v know_v and_o believe_v by_o the_o people_n he_o send_v to_o jeroboam_fw-la the_o son_n of_o joas_n than_o king_n of_o israel_n say_v amos_n have_v do_v that_o which_o tend_v to_o rebellion_n and_o have_v venture_v to_o do_v it_o within_o thy_o own_o kingdom_n in_o the_o midst_n of_o thy_o liege_n subject_n the_o house_n of_o israel_n divulge_v such_o strange_a prophecy_n and_o in_o such_o plain_a term_n as_o the_o land_n can_v and_o shall_v not_o endure_v be_v they_o do_v apparent_o tend_v to_o intestine_a sedition_n and_o be_v sufficient_a to_o provoke_v the_o people_n to_o usurp_v that_o authority_n for_o the_o punishment_n of_o amos_n which_o proper_o belong_v to_o the_o king_n or_o such_o as_o he_o shall_v please_v to_o empower_v therefore_o it_o be_v not_o amiss_o to_o advise_v quick_o what_o shall_v be_v do_v with_o such_o a_o one_o 11._o for_o thus_o say_v amos_n of_o the_o king_n king_n jeroboam_fw-la shall_v die_v by_o the_o sword_n and_o of_o the_o people_n he_o say_v israel_n shall_v be_v lead_v away_o captive_a into_o a_o strange_a land_n as_o if_o god_n will_v cast_v off_o your_o majesty_n and_o his_o people_n and_o forget_v the_o great_a cost_n and_o diligence_n which_o be_v bestow_v in_o bethel_n upon_o his_o public_a service_n 12._o thus_o amaziah_n accuse_v the_o prophet_n amos_n with_o much_o subtlety_n and_o impudence_n and_o very_o false_o for_o he_o say_v nothing_o of_o the_o person_n but_o of_o the_o house_n of_o the_o king_n yet_o lest_o this_o his_o malicious_a accusation_n of_o the_o prophet_n shall_v not_o succeed_v according_a to_o his_o desire_n he_o fall_v to_o foul_a word_n and_o

false_a prophecy_n for_o here_o be_v no_o place_n for_o such_o as_o you_o be_v 13._o let_v we_o hear_v no_o more_o of_o you_o at_o bethel_n for_o here_o be_v the_o king_n chapel_n and_o the_o king_n court_n therefore_o it_o can_v but_o be_v very_o dangerous_a for_o you_o to_o hanker_v hereabout_o but_o in_o judah_n i_o believe_v your_o prophecy_n against_o we_o may_v pass_v with_o the_o good_a like_n and_o applause_n of_o all_o 14._o to_o this_o virulent_a and_o threaten_a speech_n amos_n make_v answer_v with_o a_o humble_a but_o a_o undaunted_a spirit_n and_o say_v to_o amaziah_n i_o do_v neither_o usurp_v nor_o ambitious_o affect_v the_o place_n or_o title_n of_o a_o prophet_n nor_o have_v i_o by_o birth_n or_o succession_n or_o education_n in_o the_o school_n of_o the_o prophet_n any_o claim_n or_o pretence_n unto_o it_o for_o indeed_o i_o be_v bring_v up_o among_o flock_n of_o sheep_n 1._o and_o herd_n of_o cattle_n not_o in_o the_o school_n not_o in_o the_o court_n but_o as_o a_o gatherer_n of_o sycomore_n for_o bruit_n beast_n rather_o than_o a_o instructor_n of_o man_n 15._o though_o it_o please_v god_n to_o take_v i_o from_o follow_v the_o stock_n and_o lay_v this_o necessity_n upon_o i_o of_o prophesy_v to_o his_o people_n of_o israel_n therefore_o i_o must_v obey_v the_o divine_a call_n rather_o than_o your_o pleasure_n and_o advise_v or_o the_o

therefore_o hear_v thou_o the_o word_n of_o the_o lord_n thou_o that_o say_v 32.2_o drop_v not_o thy_o prophetical_a word_n against_o israel_n we_o desire_v not_o that_o one_o drop_n of_o they_o
