Amaziah (priest of Bethel)

아마샤 (벧엘의 제사장)

Named at Amos 7:10 as “Amaziah the priest of Bethel”, who sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words.” At 7:12–13 he says to Amos, “You seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there, but don’t prophesy again any more at Bethel; for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a royal house!” 7:14–17 gives Amos’s answer to him, in which 7:16–17 says, “Now therefore listen to the LORD’s word … Therefore the LORD says: ‘Your wife shall be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you yourself shall die in a land that is unclean’”.

    10Then Amaziah the priest of Bethel sent to Jeroboam king of Israel, saying, “Amos has conspired against you in the middle of the house of Israel. The land is not able to bear all his words.

    11For Amos says, ‘Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.’”

    12Amaziah also said to Amos, “You seer, go, flee away into the land of Judah, and there eat bread, and prophesy there,

    13but don’t prophesy again any more at Bethel; for it is the king’s sanctuary, and it is a royal house!”

    14Then Amos answered Amaziah, “I was no prophet, neither was I a prophet’s son, but I was a herdsman, and a farmer of sycamore figs;

    15and the LORD took me from following the flock, and the LORD said to me, ‘Go, prophesy to my people Israel.’

    16Now therefore listen to the LORD’s word: ‘You say, Don’t prophesy against Israel, and don’t preach against the house of Isaac.’

    17Therefore the LORD says: ‘Your wife shall be a prostitute in the city, and your sons and your daughters shall fall by the sword, and your land shall be divided by line; and you yourself shall die in a land that is unclean, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of his land.’”
