Vayeshev Haftarah

Amos 2:6 - 3:8
Amo 2:6 Thus said יהוה, “For three transgressions of Yisra’ĕl, and for four, I do not turn it back, because they sell the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of sandals,
Amo 2:7 who crush the head of the poor ones in the dust of the earth, and turn aside the way of the meek. And a man and his father go in to the same girl, to defile My kadosh Name.
Amo 2:8 “And they lie down by every altar on garments taken in pledge, and in the house of their El they drink the wine of those who have been fined.
Amo 2:9 “Yet I destroyed the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars. And he was as strong as the oaks, yet I destroyed his fruit from above and his roots from beneath.
Amo 2:10 “And I brought you up from the land of Mitsrayim, and led you forty years through the wilderness, to possess the land of the Amorite.
Amo 2:11 “And I raised up some of your sons as nevi’im, and some of your young men as Nazirites. Not so? O you children of Yisra’ĕl?” declares יהוה.
Amo 2:12 “But you made the Nazirites drink wine, and commanded the nevi’im saying, ‘Do not prophesy!’
Amo 2:13 “See, I am weighed down by you, as a wagon is weighed down when filled with sheaves.
Amo 2:14 “And a place to flee shall perish from the swift, and the strong not strengthen his power, and the mighty not save his life,
Amo 2:15 and he who handles the bow not stand, and the swift of foot not save, nor he who rides a horse save his life,
Amo 2:16 and the bravest among the mighty flee naked, in that day,” declares יהוה.
Amo 3:1 Hear this word that יהוה has spoken against you, O children of Yisra’ĕl, against the entire clan which I brought up from the land of Mitsrayim, saying,
Amo 3:2 “You alone have I known of all the clans of the earth, therefore I punish you for all your crookednesses.”
Amo 3:3 Would two walk together, without having met?
Amo 3:4 Does a lion roar in the forest, when he has no prey? Does a young lion give forth his voice out of his den unless he has caught?
Amo 3:5 Does a bird fall into a snare on the earth, where there is no trap for it? Does a snare spring up from the earth, if it has not captured prey?
Amo 3:6 If a shofar is blown in a city, do the people not tremble? If there is calamity in a city, shall not יהוה have done it?
Amo 3:7 For the Master יהוה does no matter unless He reveals His secret to His servants the nevi’im.
Amo 3:8 A lion has roared! Who is not afraid? The Master יהוה has spoken! Who would not prophesy?
