Amos 4:4-6
Living Bible
4 Go ahead and sacrifice to idols at Bethel and Gilgal. Keep disobeying—your sins are mounting up. Sacrifice each morning and bring your tithes twice a week! 5 Go through all your proper forms and give extra offerings. How you pride yourselves and crow about it everywhere!
6 “I sent you hunger,” says the Lord, “but it did no good; you still would not return to me.

Amos 4:4-6
New International Version
4 “Go to Bethel(A) and sin;
go to Gilgal(B) and sin yet more.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,(C)
your tithes(D) every three years.[a](E)
5 Burn leavened bread(F) as a thank offering
and brag about your freewill offerings(G)—
boast about them, you Israelites,
for this is what you love to do,”
declares the Sovereign Lord.
6 “I gave you empty stomachs in every city
and lack of bread in every town,
yet you have not returned to me,”
declares the Lord.(H)
