Amos 5:11-13

New American Standard Bible

¹¹ Therefore because you impose heavy ^[a]rent on the poor
And take a tribute of grain from them,
Though you have built ^(A)houses of cut stone,
Yet you will not live in them;
You have planted beautiful vineyards, yet you will ^(B)not drink their wine.
¹² For I know your offenses are many and your sins are great,
You who are ^(C)hostile to the righteous and accept bribes,
And ^[b]turn away the poor from justice at the ^[c]gate.
¹³ Therefore at ^[d]such a time the prudent person ^(D)keeps quiet, because it is an evil time.
