Amos 5:7
| ← Amos 5:6 | Amos 5:7 (KJV) | Amos 5:8 → |
|---|---|---|
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,
|
[Seek him] that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD [is] his name:
