Amos Analysis 5:17

Walk through Amos, verse by verse, with the great Bible Commentaries of Matthew Henry (1662 - 1714) & Adam Clarke (1760 - 1832)


5:17
And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.
KJV
 
{And wailing shall be in all ways, for I shall pass forth in the middle of thee, saith the Lord.}
Wycliffe's Bible
 
 Even in all vineyards, where there used to be nothing but mirth and pleasure, there shall be general wailing, when a foreign force invades the country, lays all waste, and there is no making any head against it, no weapons left but prayers and tears.
