Amos 5:6-8
New American Standard Bible
6 (A)Seek the Lord so that you may live,
Or He will break through like a (B)fire, [a]house of Joseph,
And it will consume with no one to extinguish it for Bethel,
7 For those who turn (C)justice into wormwood,
And [b]throw righteousness to the earth.”
8 He who made the (D)Pleiades and Orion,
And (E)changes deep darkness into morning,
[c]Who also (F)darkens day into night,
Who (G)calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the surface of the earth,
The (H)Lord is His name.
Amos 5:6-8
King James Version
6 Seek the Lord, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel.
7 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
8 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The Lord is his name:

Amos 5:6-8
New King James Version
6 (A)Seek the Lord and live,
Lest He break out like fire in the house of Joseph,
And devour it,
With no one to quench it in Bethel—
7 You who (B)turn justice to wormwood,
And lay righteousness to rest in the earth!”
8 He made the (C)Pleiades and Orion;
He turns the shadow of death into morning
(D)And makes the day dark as night;
He (E)calls for the waters of the sea
And pours them out on the face of the earth;
(F)The Lord is His name.
