Amos 6:1-6

1WoeH1945 to them that are at easeH7600 in ZionH6726, and to them that are secureH982 in the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, the notable men of the chief of the nationsH1471, to whom the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 comeH935! 2PassH5674 ye unto CalnehH3641, and seeH7200; and from thence goH3381 ye to Hamath the greatH7227; then goH3381 down to GathH1661 of the PhilistinesH6430: are they betterH2896 than these kingdomsH4467? or is their borderH1366 greaterH7227 than your borderH1366? 3—ye that put far away the evilH7451 dayH3117, and cause the seat of violenceH2555 to come near; 4that lieH7901 upon bedsH4296 of ivoryH8127, and stretch themselves upon their couchesH4296, and eatH398 the lambsH3733 out of the flockH6629, and the calvesH5695 out of the midstH8432 of the stallH4770; 5that sing idle songsH7892 to the sound of the viol; that invent for themselves instrumentsH3627 of music, like DavidH1732; 6that drinkH8354 wineH3196 in bowlsH4219, and anointH4886 themselves with the chief oilsH8081; but they are not grieved for the affliction of JosephH3130.
