Amos 6:1-7
21st Century King James Version
6 Woe to them that are at ease in Zion, and trust in the mountain of Samaria, who are named chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel came!
2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to Hamath the great; then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? Or their border greater than your border?
3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near,
4 that lie upon beds of ivory and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
5 that chant to the sound of the viol, and invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;

7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves shall be removed.
