Berean Standard Bible

Amos 5:21-27

21“I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.22Even though you offer Me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; for your peace offerings of fattened cattle I will have no regard.23Take away from Me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.24But let justice roll on like a river, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

25Did you bring Me sacrifices and offeringsforty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel?26You have taken along Sakkuth your kingand Kaiwan your star god,1the idols you made for yourselves.27Therefore I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,”2says the LORD, whose name is the God of Hosts.
