kjv - Amos:5:7-17

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.

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

kjv@Amos:5:17 @ And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.
