Amos 5:25-27
Evangelical Heritage Version
25 Did you bring me sacrifices and grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel?
26 You lifted up images of Sakkuth, your king,
and of Kiyyun, your star god, which you made for yourselves.[a]
27 So I will exile you beyond Damascus,
says the Lord, whose name is the God of Armies.
