Amos 6 :: New American Standard Bible 2020 (NASB20)

Go ^H5674 over ^H5674 to Calneh ^H3641 and look ^H7200,

And go ^H1980 from there ^H8033 to Hamath ^H2574 the great ^H7227,

Then go ^H3381 down ^H3381 to Gath ^H1661 of the Philistines ^H6430.

Are [fn]they better ^H2896 than ^H4480 these ^H428 kingdoms ^H4467,

Or ^H518 is their territory ^H1366 greater ^H7227 than ^H4480 yours?

Are you postponing ^H5077 the day ^H3117 of disaster ^H7451,

And would you bring ^H5066 near ^H5066 the seat ^H7675 of violence ^H2555?

Those who lie ^H7901 on beds ^H4296 of ivory ^H8127,

And lounge ^H5628 around ^H5628 on their couches ^H6210,

And eat ^H398 lambs ^H3733 from the flock ^H6629,

And calves ^H5695 from the midst ^H8432 of the fattened ^H4770 cattle ^H4770,

Who improvise ^H6527 to the sound ^H6310 of the harp ^H5035,

And like David ^H1732 have [fn]composed ^H2803 songs ^H3627 H7892 for themselves,

Who drink ^H8354 wine ^H3196 from sacred ^H4219 bowls ^H4219

While they anoint ^H4886 themselves with the finest ^H7225 of oils ^H8081—

Yet they have not grieved ^H2470 over ^H5921 the collapse ^H7667 of Joseph ^H3130.

Therefore ^H3651, they will now ^H6258 go ^H1540 into ^H1540 exile ^H1540 at the head ^H7218 of the exiles ^H1540,

And the revelry ^H4798 of those who lounge ^H5628 around ^H5628 will come ^H5493 to ^H5493 an ^H5493 end ^H5493.

The Lord ^H136 [fn]GOD ^H3068 has sworn ^H7650 by Himself ^H5315, the LORD ^H3068 God ^H430 of armies ^H6635 has declared ^H5002:

“I loathe ^H8374 the arrogance ^H1347 of Jacob ^H3290,

And [fn]detest ^H8130 his citadels ^H759;

Therefore I will give ^H5462 up ^H5462 the city ^H5892 and [fn]all ^H4393 it contains ^H4393.”

And it will be, if ^H518 ten ^H6235 men ^H376 are left ^H3498 in one ^H259 house ^H1004, they will die ^H4191.

Do horses ^H5483 run ^H7323 on rocks ^H5553?

Or ^H518 does one [fn]plow ^H2790 them with oxen ^H1241?

Yet ^H3588 you have turned ^H2015 justice ^H4941 into poison ^H7219,

And the fruit ^H6529 of righteousness ^H6666 into [fn]wormwood ^H3939,

You who rejoice ^H8056 in [fn]Lodebar ^H3810,

[fn]And say ^H559, “Have we not by our own strength ^H2392 taken ^H3947 [fn]Karnaim ^H7161 for ourselves?”

“For behold ^H2009, I am going to raise ^H6965 up ^H6965 a nation ^H1471 against ^H5921 you,

House ^H1004 of Israel ^H3478,” declares ^H5002 the LORD ^H3068 God ^H430 of armies ^H6635,

“And they will torment ^H3905 you from the entrance ^H935 of Hamath ^H2574

To the brook ^H5158 of the Arabah ^H6160.”
