Amos 5:21-27
Legacy Standard Bible
21 “I hate, I (A)reject your feasts,
Nor do I [a](B)delight in your solemn assemblies.
22 Even though you (C)offer up to Me burnt offerings and your grain offerings,
I will not accept them;
And I will not even look at the (D)peace offerings of your fatlings.
23 Remove from Me the tumult of your songs;
I will not even listen to the melody of your harps.
24 But let (E)justice roll down like waters
And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.
25 “[b](F)Did you present Me with sacrifices and grain offerings in the wilderness for forty years, O house of Israel? 26 (G)You also carried along [c]Sikkuth your king and [d]Kiyyun, your images, [e]the star of your gods which you made for yourselves. 27 Therefore, I will make you go into exile beyond Damascus,” says Yahweh, whose name is the God of hosts.

Amos 5:21-27
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.
23 Take away from me the noise of your songs;
to (C)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 (D)“Did you bring to me sacrifices and offerings during the forty years in the wilderness, O house of Israel? 26 (E)You (F)shall take up Sikkuth your king, and Kiyyun your star-god—your images that you made for yourselves, 27 (G)and I will send you into exile beyond Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is (H)the God of hosts.
