Amos 5:10-15

Condemnation of Injustice

Amos 5:10-15
10
There are those who hate the one who reproves in the gate and despise him who speaks with integrity.
11
Therefore, because you trample on the poor and exact from him a tax of grain, you will never live in the stone houses you have built; you will never drink the wine from the lush vineyards you have planted.
12
For I know that your transgressions are many and your sins are numerous. You oppress the righteous by taking bribes; you deprive the poor of justice in the gate.
13
Therefore, the prudent keep silent in such times, for the days are evil.
14
Seek good, not evil, so that you may live. And the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be with you, as you have claimed.
15
Hate evil and love good; establish justice in the gate. Perhaps the LORD, the God of Hosts, will be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.”
