Amos 7:2-5

Amos 7:2-5 NCV

When the locusts ate all the crops in the country, I said, “Lord GOD, forgive us. How could Israel live through this? It is too small already!” So the LORD changed his mind about this. “It will not happen,” said the LORD. This is what the Lord GOD showed me: The Lord GOD was calling for fire to come down like rain. It burned up the deep water and was going to burn up the land. Then I cried out, “Lord GOD, stop! How could Israel live through this? It is too small already.”
