Amos 6:2-4

GOD’S WORD Translation

² Go to Calneh and look.
Go from there to the great city of Hamath.
Then go to Gath, the city of the Philistines.
Are you better than these kingdoms?
Is their territory larger than yours?

³ How horrible it will be for those who think that a day of disaster is far away.
They bring the reign of violence closer.
⁴ How horrible it will be for those who sleep on ivory beds.
They sprawl out on their couches
and eat lambs from their flocks and calves from their stalls.
