Amos 5:14-16
Easy-to-Read Version
14 You say that God is with you,
so you should do good things, not evil.
Then you will live,
and the Lord God All-Powerful will be with you.
15 Hate evil and love goodness.
Bring justice back into the courts.
Maybe then the Lord God All-Powerful
will be kind to the survivors from Joseph’s family.

“People will be crying in the public places.
They will be crying in the streets.
They will hire the professional criers.[a]
