Amos 5:6-8

Christian Standard Bible

⁶Seek the Lord^(A) and live,
or he will spread like fire^(B)
throughout the house of Joseph;
it will consume everything
with no one at Bethel to extinguish it.^(C)
⁷Those who turn justice into wormwood^(D)
also throw righteousness to the ground.

⁸The one who made the Pleiades and Orion,^(E)
who turns darkness^[a] into dawn^(F)
and darkens day into night,^(G)
who summons the water of the sea^(H)
and pours it out over the surface of the earth^(I)—
the Lord is his name.^(J)
