Amos 4:4-6
The Voice
4 I dare you: Come to My shrine at Bethel and do wrong;
come, worship Me at Gilgal, and watch your sins multiply.
Go ahead, bring your ritual sacrifices there every morning
and ten percent of your earnings every three days.
5 Burn a thanksgiving offering of leavened bread,
boast about your freewill offerings, and let everyone know
because these things are what you love to do, people of Israel.
So says the Eternal Lord.
6 Eternal One: I kept your teeth clean and your stomachs empty
when famine struck all your cities and no food could be found in your towns,
But still you did not come back to Me.
Amos 4:4-6
New International Version
4 “Go to Bethel(A) and sin;
go to Gilgal(B) and sin yet more.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,(C)
your tithes(D) every three years.[a](E)
5 Burn leavened bread(F) as a thank offering
and brag about your freewill offerings(G)—
boast about them, you Israelites,
for this is what you love to do,”
declares the Sovereign Lord.
6 “I gave you empty stomachs in every city
and lack of bread in every town,
yet you have not returned to me,”
declares the Lord.(H)
