AM-6:1 Woe to them [that are] at ease in Zion, and trust in the
mountain of Samaria, [which are] named chief of the nations, to
whom the house of Israel came!
AM-6:2 Pass ye unto Calneh, and see; and from thence go ye to
Hamath the great: then go down to Gath of the Philistines: [be
they] better than these kingdoms? or their border greater than
your border?
AM-6:3 Ye that put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of
violence to come near;
AM-6:4 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;
AM-6:5 That chant to the sound of the viol, [and] invent to
themselves instruments of music, like David;
AM-6:6 That drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the
chief ointments: but they are not grieved for the affliction of
Joseph.
AM-6:7 Therefore now shall they go captive with the first that
go captive, and the banquet of them that stretched themselves
shall be removed.
AM-6:8 The Lord GOD hath sworn by himself, saith the LORD the
God of hosts, I abhor the excellency of Jacob, and hate his
palaces: therefore will I deliver up the city with all that is
therein.
AM-6:9 And it shall come to pass, if there remain ten men in one
house, that they shall die.
AM-6:10 And a man's uncle shall take him up, and he that burneth
him, to bring out the bones out of the house, and shall say unto
him that [is] by the sides of the house, [Is there] yet [any]
with thee? and he shall say, No. Then shall he say, Hold thy
tongue: for we may not make mention of the name of the LORD.
AM-6:11 For, behold, the LORD commandeth, and he will smite the
great house with breaches, and the little house with clefts.
AM-6:12 Shall horses run upon the rock? will [one] plow [there]
with oxen? for ye have turned judgment into gall, and the fruit
of righteousness into hemlock:
AM-6:13 Ye which rejoice in a thing of nought, which say, Have
we not taken to us horns by our own strength?
AM-6:14 But, behold, I will raise up against you a nation, O
house of Israel, saith the LORD the God of hosts; and they shall
afflict you from the entering in of Hemath unto the river of the
wilderness. 1
