Amos 6:11
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
For the LORD gives a command: “The great house will be smashed to pieces, and the small house to rubble.”
In context
9 And if there are ten men left in one house, they too will die.
10 And when the relative who is to burn the bodies picks them up to remove them from the house, he will call to one inside, “Is anyone else with you?” “None,” that person will answer. “Silence,” the relative will retort, “for the name of the LORD must not be invoked.”
11 For the LORD gives a command: “The great house will be smashed to pieces, and the small house to rubble.”
12 “Do horses gallop on the cliffs? Does one plow the sea with oxen? But you have turned justice into poison and the fruit of righteousness into wormwood—
13 you who rejoice in Lo-debar and say, ‘Did we not take Karnaim by our own strength?’
