'My People' in the Bible

The Lord said to me, “What do you see, Amos?” And I said, “A plumb line.” Then the Lord said,“Behold I am about to put a plumb lineIn the midst of My people Israel.I will spare them no longer.

But the Lord took me from following the flock and the Lord said to me, ‘Go prophesy to My people Israel.’

He said, “What do you see, Amos?” And I said, “A basket of summer fruit.” Then the Lord said to me, “The end has come for My people Israel. I will spare them no longer.

“All the sinners of My people will die by the sword,Those who say, ‘The calamity will not overtake or confront us.’

“Also I will restore the captivity of My people Israel,And they will rebuild the ruined cities and live in them;They will also plant vineyards and drink their wine,And make gardens and eat their fruit.
