Amos

Amos 5:10–11

¹⁰There are those who hate the one who reproves in the gate

and despise him who speaks with integrity.

¹¹Therefore, because you trample on the poor

and exact from him a tax of grain,

you will never live

in the stone houses you have built;

you will never drink the wine

from the lush vineyards you have planted.
