Amos 7:12-14

International Children’s Bible

¹² Then Amaziah said to Amos, “Seer, go, run away to Judah. Do your prophesying and earn your living there. ¹³ But don’t prophesy anymore here at Bethel. This is King Jeroboam’s holy place. This is Israel’s temple.”

¹⁴ Then Amos answered Amaziah, “I do not make my living as a prophet. And I am not a member of a group of prophets. I make my living as a shepherd. And I take care of sycamore trees.
