Amos 5:11 – 15
11. Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, And ye take from him burdens of wheat: Ye have built houses of hewn stone, But ye shall not dwell in them; Ye have planted pleasant vineyard, But ye shall not drink wine of them.
12. For I know your manifold transgressions and you mighty sins: They afflict the just, they take a bribe, And they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
13. Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; For it is an evil time.
14. Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: And so the Lord, the God of hosts shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
15. Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: It may be that the Lord God of Hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
