Amos 6:4
| ← Amos 6:3 | Amos 6:4 (KJV) | Amos 6:5 → |
|---|---|---|
Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near;
|
That lie upon beds of ivory, and stretch themselves upon their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the midst of the stall;
|
That chant to the sound of the viol, [and] invent to themselves instruments of musick, like David;
