Amos 7:6 WEB

⁴  Thus the Lord Yahweh showed me and, behold, the Lord Yahweh called for judgment by fire; and it dried up the great deep, and would have devoured the land.

⁵  Then I said, 'Lord Yahweh, stop, I beg you! How could Jacob stand? For he is small.'

⁶  Yahweh relented concerning this. 'This also shall not be,' says the Lord Yahweh.

⁷  Thus he showed me and, behold, the Lord stood beside a wall made by a plumb line, with a plumb line in his hand.

⁸  Yahweh said to me, 'Amos, what do you see?' I said, 'A plumb line.' Then the Lord said, 'Behold, I will set a plumb line in the midst of my people Israel. I will not again pass by them any more.
