Amos 8:3-5

International Standard Version

⁴ “Hear this, you who are swallowing up the needy,
    who intend to make the poor of the land fail,
⁵ and who are saying,
    ‘When will the New Moon fade
        so we may sell grain,
    and the Sabbath conclude^[a]
        so we may market winnowed wheat?—
shortchanging the measure,^[b]
    raising the price,
        falsifying the scales by treachery,
