Amos 8:4-6

Revised Geneva Translation

⁴ “Hear this, O you who swallow up the poor and may make the needy of the land fail,

⁵ saying, ‘When will the new month be gone, that we may sell corn; and the Sabbath, that we may set forth wheat and make the ephah small and the shekel great and falsify the weights by deceit?

⁶ ‘That we may buy the poor for silver, and the needy for shoes; yea, and sell the refuse of the wheat.’”
