Amos 5:21-27
21“I hateH8130, I 1rejectH3988 your festivalsH2282, NorH3808 do I 23delightH7381 in your solemnH6116 assembliesH6116.22EvenH3588 thoughH518 you 4offerH5927 up to Me burntH5930 offeringsH5930 and your grain offeringsH4503, I will not acceptH7521 them; And I will not even lookH5027 at the 5peaceH8002 offeringsH8002 of your fatlingsH4806.23TakeH5493 awayH5493 from Me the noiseH1995 of your songsH7892; I will not even listenH8085 to the soundH2172 of your harpsH5035.24But let 6justiceH4941 rollH1556 downH1556 like watersH4325 And righteousnessH6666 like an ever-flowingH386 streamH5158.
25“78Did you presentH5066 Me with sacrificesH2077 and grain offeringsH4503 in the wildernessH4057 for fortyH705 yearsH8141, O houseH1004 of IsraelH3478? 269You also carriedH5375 along 10SikkuthH5522 your kingH4428 and 11KiyyunH3594, your imagesH6754, 12the starH3556 of your godsH430 whichH834 you madeH6213 for yourselves. 27Therefore, I will make you goH1540 into exileH1540 beyondH4480H1973 DamascusH1834,” saysH559 the LordH3068, whose nameH8034 is the GodH430 of hostsH6635.
