Amos 5
v.1 “Hear ye this word which I take up against you, even a lamentation….
v.2 The virgin of Israel has fallen… there is none to raise her up…
v.3 For thus saith the Lord God…
v.4 …Seek ye me, and ye shall live…
v.5 But seek not Beth-el… and Beth-el shall come to nought…
v.6 Seek the Lord, and ye shall live…
v.7 Ye who turn judgment into wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth…
v.8 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning…
v.12 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins…
v.14 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you…
v.15 Hate the evil, and love the good…”
