Amos 8:3-5

The Voice

³    On that day, the joyous songs sung in the temple will turn to wailing and crying,
        and dead bodies will be piled up everywhere, scattered here, scattered there.
    Silence!

Says the Eternal Lord.

⁴Listen to this, you who trample on the needy
    and bring the poor to ruin,
⁵Who ask, “When will the new moon festival be done
    so we can sell our grain?
And when will the Sabbath end
    so we can sell our wheat?
Then we can tamper with our scales
    and make the bushel measure smaller
And the counterweight heavier to cheat our customers.
