An oath is a solemn promise involving a future course of action, usually invoking a divine overwatch, or in the presence of a witness. A swear is also a solemn promise, to make good on a future course of action, but it extends to affirming that a statement given previously, or about to be made, is true.Jan 6, 2018

You're an ignoramus, who bears the title "The Pride of Israel "? it's God Himself.

Ellicott's commentary of the Bible

(5) The pride of Israel may be either the true object of pride and boasting, viz., Jehovah Himself (comp. Amos 8:7), or the false object of pride to which they had yielded. The latter interpretation is to be preferred, and is supported by Amos 6:8. Arrogance led Ephraim, on numerous occasions in earlier sacred history, to resent the supremacy of Judah. This jealousy culminated in the rebellion of Jeroboam I., and characterised their history till the reign of Ahab. Arrogance will be their ruin now; and in this Judah is represented as likewise involved. This last feature is a new note in prophetic utterance. (Comp Hosea 4:15.) We are therefore justified in regarding Hosea 5 as delivered at a later time than the oracle standing immediately before it.

pride of Israel = Israel's pride = Israel's arrogance

The part you quoted in Amos, if you understand punctuations, you will see its saying that the Pride of Israel is God, it was expounding on the name of God. The verse says the Lord has sworn an oath by his own name not like allah that swears by his creations and a pen.

When God made his promise to Abraham, since there was no one greater for him to swear by, he swore by himself,- heb. 6 vs 13
By Myself I have sworn, declares the LORD, that because you have done this and have not withheld your only son,- Gen 22 vs16

Just admit u lost and your allah goofed. he was caught swearing by inconsequential things. And he is being spanked on nairaland

Your father can say you are his pride, pride in that sense doesn't mean arrogance, it means he's pleased and delighted with you.

The pride used in Amos doesn't mean arrogance, it meant God who is delighted and proud of Israel his chosen people, that even your Quran testifies to that God prefer Israel above all the worlds.

But when Israel sins and become arrogant , God punishes them and that is what is explained in the Hosea that you quoted above.
