Revised Literal Translation

Amos 6:3-6

3Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;1

4That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;2

5That chant to the sound of the viol, and invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;3

6That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.45
