Amos 5:10

A Lament And Call To Repentance

⁹ Causing desolation to shine forth upon the strong one and desolation shall come against the fortress. ¹⁰ They hated him setting right in the gate, and they will abhor the perfect word. ¹¹ For this, because of your treading upon the poor one, and ye will take away the liftings up of wheat from him: ye built houses of hewn stone, and ye shall not dwell in them; ye planted vineyards of desire and ye shall not drink their wine.
