amos 3:8 The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?

amos 3:8 A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?

8. As when "the lion roars" (compare Am 1:2; Am 3:4), none can help but "fear," so when Jehovah communicates His awful message, the prophet cannot but prophesy. Find not fault with me for prophesying; I must obey God. In a wider sense true of all believers (Ac 4:20; 5:29).

amos 3:8 A lion has roared! Who will not fear? The Lord God has spoken! Who can but prophesy?
