Amos 6:12

Yahweh Abhors Israel's Pride

¹¹ For lo! Yahweh, is giving command, and will smite the great house into ruins, - and the little house with clefts. ¹² Shall horses run upon crag? or will a man plough there with oxen? For ye have turned to poison the sentence of justice, and the fruit of righteousness, to wormwood: ¹³ Who rejoice in a thing of nought, - who say, Have we not by our own strength, taken to ourselves horns?
