Amos 2:6-8
New King James Version
Amos 2:6-8
New King James Version
Judgment on Israel
6 Thus says the Lord:
“For three transgressions of (A)Israel, and for four,
I will not turn away its punishment,
Because (B)they sell the righteous for silver,
And the (C)poor for a pair of sandals.
7 They [a]pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor,
And (D)pervert the way of the humble.
(E)A man and his father go in to the same girl,
(F)To defile My holy name.
8 They lie down (G)by every altar on clothes (H)taken in pledge,
And drink the wine of [b]the condemned in the house of their god.

Judgment on Israel
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Israel,
even for four, I will not relent.(A)
They sell the innocent for silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals.(B)
7 They trample on the heads of the poor
as on the dust of the ground
and deny justice to the oppressed.
Father and son use the same girl
and so profane my holy name.(C)
8 They lie down beside every altar
on garments taken in pledge.(D)
In the house of their god
they drink wine(E) taken as fines.(F)
