Amos 2:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ So I will send fire to Judah. The fire will completely burn the strong buildings that are in Jerusalem.’

A message to the people in Israel

⁶ The Lord says, ‘The people in Israel have done more and more wrong things. So I will certainly punish them.

They sold people that did not do wrong things. They sold them for silver. And they sold poor people for only the price of shoes. ⁷ They are not kind to poor people and they do not help them. A father and his son have sex with the same woman. They do not respect the holy way that I want them to live.
