Amos 2:7-9
American Standard Version
7 they that pant after the dust of the earth on the head of the poor, and turn aside the way of the meek: and a man and his father go unto the same maiden, to profane my holy name: 8 and they lay themselves down beside every altar upon clothes taken in pledge; and in the house of their God they drink the wine of such as have been fined.
9 Yet destroyed I the Amorite before them, whose height was like the height of the cedars, and he was strong as the oaks; yet I destroyed his fruit from above, and his roots from beneath.

7 They [a]pant after the dust of the earth which is on the head of the poor,
And (A)pervert the way of the humble.

(C)To defile My holy name.

And he was as strong as the oaks;
Yet I (H)destroyed his fruit above
And his roots beneath.
