Amos 5:10-13
10 aThey hate him who reproves bin the gate,and they cabhor him who speaks the truth.
11Therefore because you dtrample on ▼
▼Or you tax
the poorand you exact taxes of grain from him,
fyou have built houses of hewn stone,
but you shall not dwell in them;
gyou have planted pleasant vineyards,
but you shall not drink their wine.
12For I know how many are your transgressions
and how great are your sins—
you who afflict the righteous, who htake a bribe,
and iturn aside the needy jin the gate.
13Therefore he who is prudent will kkeep silent in such a time,
lfor it is an evil time.
