Amos 5:11-13

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

¹¹ Therefore because you tread upon the poor and take from him exactions of wheat, you have built houses of hewn stone, but you shall not dwell in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you shall not drink their wine.

¹² For I know how manifold are your transgressions and how mighty are your sins—you who afflict the [uncompromisingly] righteous, who take a bribe, and who turn aside the needy in the [court of the city] gate from their right.

¹³ Therefore he who is prudent will keep silence in such a time, for it is an evil time.
