kjv - Amos:5:4-15

kjv@Amos:5:4 @ For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live:

kjv@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 nought.

kjv@Amos:5:6 @ Seek the LORD, and ye 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.

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

kjv@Amos:5:8 @ Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:

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

kjv@Amos:5:10 @ They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.

kjv@Amos:5:11 @ 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 vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.

kjv@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.

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

kjv@Amos:5:14 @ 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.

kjv@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 unto the remnant of Joseph.
