Amos 5:9-11
World English Bible

9 who brings sudden destruction on the strong,
    so that destruction comes on the fortress.
10 They hate him who reproves in the gate,
    and they abhor him who speaks blamelessly.
11 Therefore, because you trample on the poor,
    and take taxes from him of wheat:
    You have built houses of cut stone,
    but you will not dwell in them.
You have planted pleasant vineyards,
    but you shall not drink their wine.

New International Version

9 With a blinding flash he destroys the stronghold
    and brings the fortified city to ruin.(A)

10 There are those who hate the one who upholds justice in court(B)
    and detest the one who tells the truth.(C)

11 You levy a straw tax on the poor(D)
    and impose a tax on their grain.
Therefore, though you have built stone mansions,(E)
    you will not live in them;(F)
though you have planted lush vineyards,
    you will not drink their wine.(G)
