5 And I said, 'Lord God, cease, I beg you. Who will raise up Jacob, for he is little?'
6 The Lord has been merciful about this. 'And even this will not be,' said the Lord God.
7 These things the Lord revealed to me. And behold, the Lord was standing near a plastered wall, and in his hand was a mason's trowel.
8 And the Lord said to me, 'What do you see, Amos?' And I said, 'A mason's trowel.' And the Lord said, 'Behold, I will place the trowel in the midst of my people Israel. I will no longer plaster over them.
9 And the heights of the idol will be demolished, and the sanctuaries of Israel will be desolate. And I will rise up against the house of Jeroboam with the sword.'
