Amos 5:15-17

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁵ Hate evil and love good.
Then you will be able to have justice in your courts.
Maybe the Lord God of Armies
will have pity on the faithful few of Joseph.

There will be loud crying in every city square,
and people will say in every street, “Oh, no!”
They will call on farmers to mourn
and on professional mourners to cry loudly.
¹⁷ There will be loud crying in every vineyard,
because I will pass through your land ⌞with death⌟.
