Amos 5:22-27
English Standard Version
22 (A)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.
23 Take away from me the noise of your songs;
to (B)the melody of your harps I will not listen.
24 But let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25 (C)“Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? 26 (D)You (E)shall take up Sikkuth your king, and Kiyyun your star-god—your images that you made for yourselves, 27 (F)and I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is (G)the God of hosts.
