Amos 5:21-24

English Standard Version

²¹^(A)“I hate, I despise your feasts,
    and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
²²^(B)Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings,
    I will not accept them;
and the peace offerings of your fattened animals,
    I will not look upon them.
²³Take away from me the noise of your songs;
    to ^(C)the melody of your harps I will not listen.
²⁴But let justice roll down like waters,
    and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

John 4:19-24

English Standard Version

¹⁹The woman said to him, “Sir, I perceive that ^(A)you are ^(B)a prophet. ²⁰^(C)Our fathers worshiped on ^(D)this mountain, but you say that ^(E)in Jerusalem is ^(F)the place where people ought to worship.” ²¹Jesus said to her, ^(G)“Woman, believe me, ^(H)the hour is coming when ^(I)neither on this mountain nor in Jerusalem will you worship the Father. ²²^(J)You worship what you do not know; ^(K)we worship what we know, for ^(L)salvation is ^(M)from the Jews. ²³But ^(N)the hour is coming, and is now here, when the true worshipers will worship the Father ^(O)in spirit and ^(P)truth, for the Father ^(Q)is seeking such people to worship him. ²⁴God is spirit, and those who worship him must worship in spirit and truth.”
