Amos 5:11-13
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
11 Therefore because you trample on the poor
and take from them levies of grain,
you have built houses of hewn stone,
but you shall not live in them;
you have planted pleasant vineyards,
but you shall not drink their wine.(A)
12 For I know how many are your transgressions
and how great are your sins—
you who afflict the righteous, who take a bribe
and push aside the needy in the gate.(B)
13 Therefore the prudent will keep silent in such a time,
for it is an evil time.
