“For thus Amos saith, Jeroboam shall die by the sword, and Israel shall surely be led away captive out of their own land.”
The statement that Amos said Jeroboam shall die by the sword and Israel must go into exile indicates the political charges brought against the prophet. The accusation misrepresents Amos's prophecy in order to justify suppression.
