Amos:2:6-16




gltv@Amos:2:6 @ So says Jehovah: For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn back from it, for they sold the righteous for silver, and the poor for a pair of sandals,

gltv@Amos:2:7 @ panting for the dust of the earth on the head of the helpless, and turning aside the way of the humble. And a man and his father will go in to the same girl, in order to profane the name of My holiness.

gltv@Amos:2:8 @ And they will stretch out beside every altar, and on garments taken in pledge. And they will drink wine of those being fined in the house of God.

gltv@Amos:2:9 @ Yet I destroyed the Amorite from before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the great trees. And I destroyed his fruit from above and his roots from below.

gltv@Amos:2:10 @ Also I brought you up from the land of Egypt and led you in the wilderness forty years, to possess the land of the Amorite.

gltv@Amos:2:11 @ And I raised up from your sons for prophets, and for Nazarites from your young men. Is this not even so, O sons of Israel? declares Jehovah.

gltv@Amos:2:12 @ But you gave the Nazarites wine to drink, and you commanded the prophets, saying, Do not prophesy.

gltv@Amos:2:13 @ Behold, I am pressed under you, as a cart full with produce is pressed.

gltv@Amos:2:14 @ And refuge shall perish from the swift, and the strong shall not strengthen his power, nor shall the mighty deliver his life,

gltv@Amos:2:15 @ and he who handles the bow shall not stand, and he swift footed shall not save, and the horse rider shall not save his life.

gltv@Amos:2:16 @ And the stouthearted among the mighty shall run away naked in that day, declares Jehovah.
