Amos 7:6
"The LORD repented for this: This also shall not be, saith the Lord GOD."

Commentary

Gill's Exposition

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, saith the Lord God; the whole

land shall not be destroyed, only a part of it carried captive.
