Amos 5:14

← Amos 5:13 Amos 5:14 (KJV) Amos 5:15 →
Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it [is] an evil time.
Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
