Amos 5:20–24
be darkness rather than light,q
even gloom without any brightness in it?r
21 I hate, I despise, your feasts!s
I can’t stand the stench
of your solemn assemblies.t
your burnt offerings and grain offerings,u
I will not accept them;v
I will have no regard
for your fellowship offerings of fattened cattle.w
23 Take away from me the noise of your songs!
I will not listen to the music of your harps.x
24 But let justice flow like water,
and righteousness, like an unfailing stream.y
