Amos 7:6-8 New English Translation (NET)

6. The Lord decided not to do this. The sovereign Lord said, “This will not happen either.”

7. He showed me this: I saw the sovereign One standing by a tin wall holding tin in his hand.

8. The Lord said to me, “What do you see, Amos?” I said, “Tin.” The sovereign One then said,“Look, I am about to place tin among my people Israel. I will no longer overlook their sin.
