Amos 5:15-17

New Living Translation

¹⁵ Hate evil and love what is good;
    turn your courts into true halls of justice.
Perhaps even yet the Lord God of Heaven’s Armies
    will have mercy on the remnant of his people.^[a]

“There will be crying in all the public squares
    and mourning in every street.
Call for the farmers to weep with you,
    and summon professional mourners to wail.
¹⁷ There will be wailing in every vineyard,
    for I will destroy them all,”
    says the Lord.
