Walk through Amos, verse by verse, with the great Bible Commentaries of Matthew Henry (1662 - 1714) & Adam Clarke (1760 - 1832)
7:16
Now therefore hear thou the word of the LORD: Thou sayest, Prophesy not against Israel, and drop not thy word against the house of Isaac. KJV
{And now hear thou the word of the Lord. Thou sayest, Thou shalt not prophesy on Israel, and
thou shalt not drop (thy word) on the house of idol.} Wycliffe's Bible
Now therefore hear thou the word of the Lord - While he was speaking in his own vindication, God seems to have inspired him with the awful prediction which he immediately delivers.
