SCRIPTURE

"Jehovah repented concerning this: this also shall not be, saith the Lord Jehovah." — Amos 7:6 (ASV)

The Lord repented for this
He heard the prophet's prayer, and desisted from going on with the threatened destruction: this also shall not be, says the Lord God ;
the whole land shall not be destroyed, only a part of it carried captive.
