Amos 5:12-14
International Standard Version
12 and because I know that your transgressions are many,
and your sins are numerous
as you oppose the righteous,
taking bribes as a ransom,
and turning away the poor in court[a]—
13 therefore the prudent person remains silent at such a time,
for the time is evil.
14 ‘Pursue good and not evil,
so that you may live,
and this is what will happen:[b]
The Lord God of the Heavenly Armies will be with you,
as you have been claiming.
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.
