Amos 3:6

Read in context

Amos 3:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 Does a lion roar in the forest when he has no prey? Does a young lion growl in his den if he has caught nothing?

5 Does a bird land in a snare where no bait has been set? Does a trap spring from the ground when it has nothing to catch?

6 If a ram’s horn sounds in a city, do the people not tremble? If calamity comes to a city, has not the LORD caused it?

7 Surely the Lord GOD does nothing without revealing His plan to His servants the prophets.

8 The lion has roared— who will not fear? The Lord GOD has spoken— who will not prophesy?
