Amos 6, 12-14

12. There is no justice or righteousness in Israel, just poison and bitterness. This is not as it should be, like making a horse run on rocks or plowing rocks with oxen.

13. The people of Israel do not recognize their need for God; they think that they are responsible for what they have achieved.

14. God will raise up an enemy to conquer Israel and afflict them. Presumably "from the entrance of Hamath to the brook of the Arabah" refers to the entire length of Israel."
