Amos 5:4-9

4For thus saith Jehovah unto the house of Israel: Seek ye me, and ye shall live.

5And seek not Bethel, neither go to Gilgal, and pass not to Beer-sheba; for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought.

6Seek Jehovah, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour [it], and there be none to quench [it] in Bethel.

7Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and cast down righteousness to the earth,

8[seek him] that made the Pleiades and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night; that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: Jehovah is his name.

9He causeth destruction to break forth suddenly upon the strong, and bringeth destruction upon the fortress.
