“And the Lord said unto me, Amos, what seest thou? And I said, A plumbline. Then said the Lord, Behold, I will set a plumbline in the midst of my people Israel: I will not again pass by them any more:”
The statement that the LORD asks what Amos sees and the response a plumb line indicates the testing of Israel's alignment with God's purpose. The promise that he will not again pass by Israel indicates that this testing will result in judgment without reprieve.
