Amos 5:16

A Lament And Call To Repentance

¹⁵ Hate the evil and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate; it may be that the LORD God of the hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph. ¹⁶ Therefore thus says the Lord God of hosts, the Lord,
“There is wailing in all the plazas,
And in all the streets they say, ‘Alas! Alas!’
They also call the farmer to mourning
And professional mourners to lamentation.
¹⁷ And in all vineyards shall be wailing, for I will pass through the midst of thee, said the LORD.
