Amos 5:25-27

Good News Translation

^25 (A)“People of Israel, I did not demand sacrifices and offerings during those forty years that I led you through the desert. ²⁶ But now, because you have worshiped images of Sakkuth, your king god, and of Kaiwan, your star god, you will have to carry those images ²⁷ when I take you into exile in a land beyond Damascus,” says the Lord, whose name is Almighty God.
