Amos 5:5-7

Expanded Bible

⁵     But do not ·look in [seek] Bethel [^Cironic, since Bethel means “house of God”; 4:4]
or go to Gilgal,
    and do not go down to Beersheba [^Cimportant centers of worship in Israel; 4:4].
The people of Gilgal will ·be taken away as captives [surely go into exile],
    and Bethel will become nothing.”
⁶ ·Come to [Seek] the Lord and live,
    or he will ·move [sweep through; ^Lrush] like fire against the ·descendants [^Lhouse] of Joseph.
The fire will ·burn [consume; devour] Bethel [4:4],
    and there will be no one to ·put it out [quench it].
⁷ You turn justice ·upside down [^Linto bitterness/or wormwood; ^Ca bitter plant; 6:12],
    and you throw on the ground ·what is right [rightousness; justice].
