Amos 3:6-8
New Catholic Bible

6 Are people not alarmed
    if a trumpet sounds in the city?
If disaster strikes a city,
    can that occur without the approval of the Lord?[a]
7 Indeed, the Lord God does nothing
    without revealing his plan
    to his servants, the prophets.
8 The lion roars;
    who will not be frightened?
The Lord God has spoken;
    who will not prophesy?
