Amos 5:10-12

Modern English Version

¹⁰ They hate the one who prosecutes at the gate,
    and abhor the one who speaks with integrity.

¹¹ Therefore, because you trample on the poor
    and take from him a levy of wheat,
though you have built houses of hewn stone,
    you will not dwell in them;
though you have planted pleasant vineyards,
    you will not drink their wine.
¹² For I know your transgressions are many
    and your sins are grievous,
you who oppress the just,
    who take a bribe and subvert the needy at the gate.
