Amos 5:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ He that with a smile bringeth destruction upon the strong, and waste upon the mighty.

¹⁰ They have hated him that rebuketh in the gate: and have abhorred him that speaketh perfectly.

¹¹ Therefore because you robbed the poor, and took the choice prey from him: you shall build houses with square stone, and shall not dwell in them: you shall plant most delightful vineyards, and shall not drink the wine of them.
