Amos 7:13-15
King James Version
13 But prophesy not again any more at Bethel: for it is the king's chapel, and it is the king's court.
14 Then answered Amos, and said to Amaziah, I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet's son; but I was an herdman, and a gatherer of sycomore fruit:
15 And the Lord took me as I followed the flock, and the Lord said unto me, Go, prophesy unto my people Israel.

13 But (A)never again prophesy at Bethel,
(B)For it is the king’s [a]sanctuary,
And it is the royal [b]residence.”
14 Then Amos answered, and said to Amaziah:
“I was no prophet,
Nor was I (C)a son of a prophet,
But I was a (D)sheepbreeder
And a tender of sycamore fruit.
15 Then the Lord took me [c]as I followed the flock,
And the Lord said to me,
‘Go, (E)prophesy to My people Israel.’
