Amos 5:8


Amos 5:7 Amos 5:8 (KJV) Amos 5:9
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:
That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
