Amos 5:13

A Lament And Call To Repentance

¹² For I knew your many transgressions, and your strong sins: pressing upon the just, taking a ransom, and they turned away the needy in the gate ¹³ For this the prudent one shall be silent in that time, for it is an evil time. ¹⁴ Seek good and not evil, so that ye shall live: and so Jehovah God of armies shall be with you as ye said.
