Amos 3:12

Thus says the Lord : As the shepherd rescues from the mouth of the lion two legs , or a piece of an ear , so shall the people of Israel who dwell in Samaria be rescued , with the corner of a couch and part of a bed .

This is what the Lord says: “As a shepherd rescues from the lion`s mouth only two leg bones or a piece of an ear, so will the Israelites living in Samaria be rescued, with only the head of a bed and a piece of fabric from a couch.”

Thus saith the Lord; As the shepherd taketh out of the mouth of the lion two legs, or a piece of an ear; so shall the children of Israel be taken out that dwell in Samaria in the corner of a bed, and in Damascus in a couch.
