Alex: So, tell me a bit about yourself.

Contestant: Well, I'm a big fan of the Bible, so I'd like to summarize Amos 8.

Alex: (Sighing) Alright, I guess we can do that. Go ahead.

Contestant: In Amos 8, God speaks out against the people of Israel. He talks about how they have been taking advantage of the poor and oppressed through unjust practices such as dishonest scales, false weights, and extortion. God also tells them that they will be punished for their sins and that their days of prosperity will come to an end.

Alex: (Rolling his eyes) Anything else?

Contestant: Yes, God also tells them that there will be a famine of hearing the words of the Lord, and that there will be no more joy or singing in the land. He warns them that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night, and that there will be no escape from its judgment.

Alex: (Sighing again) Well, thank you for that...uh...interesting summary.
