RF AMO 5:1 Listen to this message that I bring to you;—
RF AMO 5:2 The Lament for the House of Israel.
Israel's daughter has fallen and cannot arise!
She lies stretched on the ground without help!
RF AMO 5:3 For thus says the MIGHTY LORD,—"To the City that brought out a thousand, a hundred are left and where a hundred came out, ten are left to the House of Israel.";
RF AMO 5:4 Thus says the EVER-LIVING to the House of Israel—"Seek Me and you will live;
RF AMO 5:5 but seek not Bethel, and go not to Gilgal, nor pass on to Barsheba,—for Gilgal will be carried off, and Bethel become empty."
RF AMO 5:6 Seek the LIFE and you shall live! If not He will fall like fire on the House of Joseph, and consume and be unquenchable in Bethel!—
RF AMO 5:7 You who turn Justice into distress, and fling right to the ground!—
RF AMO 5:8 concocting clouds and stupidity, and pouring the shadow of death on the morning, and dark Night upon Day, and demand the waters of the Sea, and pour them on the face of the land!—
RF AMO 5:9 His Name is the LIFE, Who flashes destruction on Power, and brings destruction on the Mighty!
RF AMO 5:10 They hate the public reprover,—abhor the speaker of truth.
RF AMO 5:11 Therefore, although you trample upon the poor, and take a tax on his corn, to build yourselves houses of cut stone,—you shall not reside in them. You plant delightful vineyards, but shall not drink their wine.
RF AMO 5:12 For I know your many vices, and your mighty sins!—you oppressors of right;—you takers of bribes;—and you wrong the wretched in the Courts of Justice.
RF AMO 5:13 So the Prudent in this age is dumb!—for it is a bad period!
RF AMO 5:14 Seek Good and not evil! that you may live,—and then the LORD GOD OF HOSTS will be with you, as you assert.—
RF AMO 5:15 Hate Evil and love Good,—Establish justice in your Law Courts I—Perhaps the LORD OF HOSTS will be merciful to the fragments of Joseph!
RF AMO 5:16 However, thus says the LORD GOD OF HOSTS, THE MIGHTY, "There shall be mourning in all the squares! and they shall exclaim in all the streets, 'Alas! Alas!' and call the farmer to grieve, and the professors of wailing to mourn;—
RF AMO 5:17 And all vine-dressers to lament, when I pass through your breast," says the EVER-LIVING.
RF AMO 5:18 Woe to you, wishing for the Day of the LORD!—It will be darkness and not Light!
RF AMO 5:19 As a man flying from the presence of a lion,—and a bear meets him, or entering a house, and laying his hand on the wall, and a serpent bites,—
RF AMO 5:20 The Day of the LORD will be Darkness and not Light,—and Blackness and without splendour.
RF AMO 5:21 A Denunciation of Hypocrisy.
I hate, I reject your feasts! I am not pleased with your assemblings! When you offer burnt-offerings with foods,
RF AMO 5:22 I am not gratified!—and I will not look at your fat thank-offerings! Take away the drone of your songs!
RF AMO 5:23 And let Me not hear the tone of your lutes!—
RF AMO 5:24 But let Justice flow like brooks, and right like a constant river!
RF AMO 5:25 Did you present to Me for the forty years in the Desert, sacrifices and offerings?—House of Israel?—
RF AMO 5:26 When you erected your tent to Molok, and shrines for your Star-god, Kion whom you made for yourselves?—
RF AMO 5:27 So I will transport you from here to Damascus, the EVER-LIVING declares,—Whose name is the LORD GOD OF HOSTS!
