akjv@Amos:5:1 @ Hear you this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation, O house of Israel.

akjv@Amos:5:2 @ The virgin of Israel is fallen; she shall no more rise: she is forsaken on her land; there is none to raise her up.

akjv@Amos:5:3 @ For thus said the Lord GOD; The city that went out by a thousand shall leave an hundred, and that which went forth by an hundred shall leave ten, to the house of Israel.

akjv@Amos:5:4 @ For thus said the LORD to the house of Israel, Seek you me, and you shall live:

akjv@Amos:5:5 @ But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nothing.

akjv@Amos:5:6 @ Seek the LORD, and you shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.

akjv@Amos:5:7 @ You who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,

akjv@Amos:5:8 @ Seek him that makes the seven stars and Orion, and turns the shadow of death into the morning, and makes the day dark with night: that calls for the waters of the sea, and pours them out on the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:

akjv@Amos:5:9 @ That strengthens the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.

akjv@Amos:5:10 @ They hate him that rebukes in the gate, and they abhor him that speaks uprightly.

akjv@Amos:5:11 @ For as much therefore as your treading is on the poor, and you take from him burdens of wheat: you have built houses of hewn stone, but you shall not dwell in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink wine of them.

akjv@Amos:5:12 @ For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.

akjv@Amos:5:13 @ Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.

akjv@Amos:5:14 @ Seek good, and not evil, that you may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as you have spoken.

akjv@Amos:5:15 @ 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 to the remnant of Joseph.

akjv@Amos:5:16 @ Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the LORD, said thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the farmer to mourning, and such as are skillful of lamentation to wailing.

akjv@Amos:5:17 @ And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through you, said the LORD.

akjv@Amos:5:18 @ Woe to you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.

akjv@Amos:5:19 @ As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.

akjv@Amos:5:20 @ Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?

akjv@Amos:5:21 @ I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.

akjv@Amos:5:22 @ Though you offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.

akjv@Amos:5:23 @ Take you away from me the noise of your songs; for I will not hear the melody of your viols.

akjv@Amos:5:24 @ But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.

akjv@Amos:5:25 @ Have you offered to me sacrifices and offerings in the wilderness forty years, O house of Israel?

akjv@Amos:5:26 @ But you have borne the tabernacle of your Moloch and Chiun your images, the star of your god, which you made to yourselves.

akjv@Amos:5:27 @ Therefore will I cause you to go into captivity beyond Damascus, said the LORD, whose name is The God of hosts.
