Amos 5:3-5
New International Version - UK

3 This is what the Sovereign Lord says to Israel:

‘Your city that marches out a thousand strong
    will have only a hundred left;
your town that marches out a hundred strong
    will have only ten left.’

4 This is what the Lord says to Israel:

‘Seek me and live;
5     do not seek Bethel,
do not go to Gilgal,
    do not journey to Beersheba.
For Gilgal will surely go into exile,
    and Bethel will be reduced to nothing.’[a]
