Amos 5:6


Amos 5:5 Amos 5:6 (KJV) Amos 5:7
But seek not Bethel, nor enter into Gilgal, and pass not to Beersheba: for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity, and Bethel shall come to nought.
Seek the LORD, and ye shall live; lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph, and devour [it], and [there be] none to quench [it] in Bethel.
Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
