Amos 5:12-14
Complete Jewish Bible
12 For I know how numerous are your crimes
and how outrageous your sins —
bullying the innocent, extorting ransoms
pushing the poor aside at the gate.
13 At times like these a prudent person stays silent,
for it is an evil time.
14 Seek good and not evil, so that you will survive.
Then Adonai Elohei-Tzva’ot will be with you,
as you say he is.
Amos 5:12-14
New International Version
12 For I know how many are your offenses
and how great your sins.(A)
There are those who oppress the innocent and take bribes(B)
and deprive the poor(C) of justice in the courts.(D)
13 Therefore the prudent keep quiet(E) in such times,
for the times are evil.(F)
14 Seek good, not evil,
that you may live.(G)
Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you,
just as you say he is.
