Amos 6:1-7
11WoeH1945 to those who are carefreeH7600 in ZionH6726, And to those who feelH982 secureH982 on the mountainH2022 of SamariaH8111, The 2dignitariesH5344 of the foremostH7225 of nationsH1471, To whomH1992 the houseH1004 of IsraelH3478 comesH935.2GoH5674 overH5674 to 3CalnehH3641 and lookH7200, And goH1980 from thereH8033 to 4HamathH2574 the greatH7227, Then goH3381 downH3381 to 5GathH1661 of the PhilistinesH6430. Are 6they betterH2896 thanH4480 theseH428 kingdomsH4467, OrH518 is their territoryH1366 greaterH7227 thanH4480 yours?3Are you 7postponingH5077 the dayH3117 of disasterH7451, And would you 8bringH5066 nearH5066 the seatH7675 of violenceH2555?
4Those who lieH7901 on bedsH4296 of ivoryH8127, And loungeH5628 aroundH5628 on their 9couchesH6210, And 10eatH398 lambsH3733 from the flockH6629, And calvesH5695 from the midstH8432 of the fattenedH4770 cattleH4770,5Who improviseH6527 to the soundH6310 of the harpH5035, And like DavidH1732 have 11composedH2803 12songsH3627H7892 for themselves,6Who 13drinkH8354 wineH3196 from sacredH4219 bowlsH4219 While they anointH4886 themselves with the finestH7225 of oilsH8081-- Yet they have not 14grievedH2470 overH5921 the collapseH7667 of JosephH3130.7ThereforeH3651, they will nowH6258 15goH1540 intoH1540 exileH1540 at the headH7218 of the exilesH1540, And the revelryH4798 of those who 16loungeH5628 aroundH5628 will comeH5493 toH5493 anH5493 endH5493.
