Amos 5:4

A Lament And Call To Repentance

³ The (Sovereign and Almighty) Lord Jehovah declared: The city that went forth a thousand will have a hundred left, and that which went forth a hundred will have ten left, for the house of Israel. ⁴ For thus says the Lord to the house of Israel,
“Seek Me that you may live.
⁵ Do not seek Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal. Do not pass to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into captivity (exile), and Bethel will come to nothing.
