Amos 5:10-13

10The Israelites hate anyone who arbitrates at the city gate; they despise anyone who speaks honestly.

11Therefore, because you make the poor pay taxes on their crops and exact a grain tax from them, you will not live in the houses you built with chiseled stone, nor will you drink the wine from the fine vineyards you planted.

12Certainly I am aware of your many rebellious acts and your numerous sins. You torment the innocent, you take bribes, and you deny justice to the needy at the city gate.

13For this reason whoever is smart keeps quiet in such a time, for it is an evil time.
