Amos 7:5
Then said I, O Lord God, cease, I beseech thee: by whom shall Jacob arise? for he is small.
Cross-reference
In Amos 7:2, the same intercessory plea appears verbatim: 'O Lord GOD, please... How can Jacob stand? He is so small!' — identical structure in the first vision.
In Amos 7:3, the Lord relents from the first vision's judgment — showing that Amos's pattern of intercession (v5) leads to divine relenting (v6 follows).
Deuteronomy 9:18 shows Moses prostrate in intercession for Israel's sin — a strong parallel to Amos's intercessory role for Jacob.
Joel 2:17 calls priests to plead, 'Spare thy people, O Lord' — a public intercession similar to Amos's personal cry for mercy.
Isaiah 1:9 speaks of being spared from total destruction because of a small remnant — parallel to Amos's plea that Jacob is too small to survive judgment.
Isaiah 10:25 promises God's indignation will end — a counterpart to Amos's plea for it to cease now. Both address the duration of divine anger.
