Dov Shurin sent a clip of his song “Never to be Uprooted Again – V’lo Yenatshu”, based on the words of the prophet Amos (9:14-15).
On 01 Oct 2013, Israeli PM Netanyahu addressed UN General Assembly on quoting the words of the prophet Amos:
In our time the Biblical prophecies are being realized. As the prophet Amos said, They shall rebuild ruined cities and inhabit them. They shall plant vineyards and drink their wine. They shall till gardens and eat their fruit. And I will plant them upon their soil never to be uprooted again.
ושבתי את שבות עמי ישראל, ובנו ערים נשמות ויישבו, ונטעו כרמים ושתו את יינם ועשו גינות ואכלו את פרים
ונטעתים על אדמתם ולא ינטשו עודLadies and gentlemen, the people of Israel have come home never to be uprooted again.
Yaakov Lepon of the King David Studio in Jerusalem integrates PM Netanyahu’s address with the melody that Dov Shurin composed to the prophecies of Amos the Prophet.
