Amos 5:5-7
Legacy Standard Bible

5 But do not seek (A)Bethel,
And do not come to (B)Gilgal,
Nor cross over to (C)Beersheba;
For Gilgal will certainly go into [a]exile,
And Bethel will become [b]evil.
6 (D)Seek Yahweh that you may live,
Lest He come mightily like a (E)fire, [c]O house of Joseph,
And it will consume with none to quench it for Bethel,
7 For those who overturn (F)justice into wormwood
And put righteousness down to the earth.”
