Have written to King Jeroboam. Amos is conspiring against you right here in Israel. The country cannot tolerate what he is saying. He claims Jeroboam will die by the sword and Israel will be taken into exile.

Kindly leave, seer. Go home to Judah. Earn your living there and do your prophesying there. Never again at Bethel. This is the king's sanctuary, the temple of the kingdom.
