Amos 5:21-27

21I hate, I despise, your feasts! I can’t stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.

22Even if you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; I will have no regard for your fellowship offerings of fattened cattle.

23Take away from me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.

24But let justice flow like water, and righteousness, like an unfailing stream.

25“House of Israel, was it sacrifices and grain offerings that you presented to me during the forty years in the wilderness?

26But you have taken up Sakkuth your king and Kaiwan your star god, images you have made for yourselves.

27So I will send you into exile beyond Damascus.” The Lord, the God of Armies, is his name. He has spoken.
