Amos 5:4-6
New American Standard Bible
4 For this is what the Lord says to the house of Israel:
“(A)Seek Me (B)so that you may live.
5 But do not [a]resort to (C)Bethel
And do not come to (D)Gilgal,
Nor cross over to (E)Beersheba;
For Gilgal will certainly go into captivity
And Bethel will [b]come to nothing.
6 (F)Seek the Lord so that you may live,
Or He will break through like a (G)fire, [c]house of Joseph,
And it will consume with no one to extinguish it for Bethel,

New International Version
4 This is what the Lord says to Israel:
“Seek(A) me and live;(B)
5 do not seek Bethel,
do not go to Gilgal,(C)
do not journey to Beersheba.(D)
For Gilgal will surely go into exile,
and Bethel will be reduced to nothing.[a](E)”
6 Seek(F) the Lord and live,(G)
or he will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire;(H)
it will devour them,
and Bethel(I) will have no one to quench it.(J)
