Amos 4:2-4
International Standard Version

2 The Lord God has taken a sacred oath:[a]

“The day is coming when they[b] will take you away on fishhooks,
    every last one of you on fishhooks.
3 Each of you will go out through the breaches of the walls[c]
    straight to Mt. Hermon,”[d]
        declares the Lord.

The Lord’s Rebuke to Israel

4 “Come to Bethel and sin,
    to Gilgal and sin even more!
Bring along your morning sacrifices,
    and pay your tithes every other day.[e]
