Amos 2:6-8
Tree of Life Version
6 Thus says Adonai:
“For three crimes of Israel
even for four, I will not relent.
For they sell the righteous for silver
and the needy for a pair of shoes.
7 They trample the head of the poor
into the dust of the earth
and thwart the way of the humble.
A man and his father go to the same girl,[a]
to profane My holy Name.
8 Upon garments taken in pledge
they stretch out beside every altar,
and drink wine confiscated as fines
in the house of their gods.

New International Version
Judgment on Israel
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Israel,
even for four, I will not relent.(A)
They sell the innocent for silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals.(B)
7 They trample on the heads of the poor
as on the dust of the ground
and deny justice to the oppressed.
Father and son use the same girl
and so profane my holy name.(C)
8 They lie down beside every altar
on garments taken in pledge.(D)
In the house of their god
they drink wine(E) taken as fines.(F)
