Amos 5:5-7
Evangelical Heritage Version
5 But do not seek Bethel.
Do not go to Gilgal.
Do not travel to Beersheba,
because Gilgal surely will go into exile,
and Bethel will become nothing.
6 Seek the Lord and live,
or he will rush upon the house of Joseph like fire.
The fire will consume, and no one will extinguish it for Bethel.
7 There are some who turn justice into wormwood,[a]
who throw righteousness to the ground.
Footnotes
- Amos 5:7 Wormwood is a toxic, bitter-tasting substance (absinthe).
