Amos 6:8-10
Tree of Life Version
8 My Lord Adonai has sworn by Himself
—declares Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot—
“I loathe the arrogance of Jacob,
I despise his palaces,
so I will shut down the city and everything in it.”
9 If ten people remain in one house, they will die. 10 One’s beloved—the one burning incense for him—will lift him up to carry the bones out of the house, and he will say to one in the innermost recess of the house: “Is anyone else still with you?” And he will say: “No one.” Then he will say, “Hush! For we must not mention the Name of Adonai.”

Amos 6:8-10
New International Version
The Lord Abhors the Pride of Israel
8 The Sovereign Lord has sworn by himself(A)—the Lord God Almighty declares:
“I abhor(B) the pride of Jacob(C)
and detest his fortresses;(D)
I will deliver up(E) the city
and everything in it.(F)”
9 If ten(G) people are left in one house, they too will die. 10 And if the relative who comes to carry the bodies out of the house to burn them[a](H) asks anyone who might be hiding there, “Is anyone else with you?” and he says, “No,” then he will go on to say, “Hush!(I) We must not mention the name of the Lord.”
