Amos 7:12-17

VIN(i) 12 And Amaziah said to Amos, "O seer, go, flee to the land of Judah and earn food there and prophesy there!" 13 Don't prophesy anymore at Bethel, because it's the king's sanctuary and a temple of the kingdom." 14 Then Amos answered Amaziah, "I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was a herdsman, and a farmer of sycamore figs; 15 But the LORD took me from tending the flock and the LORD kept saying to me, 'Go, prophesy to my people Israel.' 16 Now, then, hear the word of the LORD: You say, Do not prophesy against Israel, and do not drop words against the house of Isaac. 17 'Therefore this is what the LORD says: "Your wife will become a whore in the city, and your sons and daughters will die by the sword. Your land will be divided and apportioned, and you will die in a foreign land. Israel will surely go into exile, far from its homeland."'"
