In context

3And ye shall be brought forth naked in the presence of each other; and ye shall be cast forth on the mountain Rimmon, saith the Lord.

4Ye went into Bethel, and sinned, and ye multiplied sin at Gilgal; and ye brought your meat offerings in the morning, and your tithes every third day.

— Amos 4:5 —

6And I will give you dullness of teeth in all your cities, and want of bread in all your places: yet ye returned not to me, saith the Lord.

7Also I withheld from you the rain three months before the harvest: and I will rain upon one city, and on another city I will not rain: one part shall be rained upon, and the part on which I shall not rain shall be dried up.
