Amos 5:14-16
Legacy Standard Bible

14 Seek good and not evil, in order that you may live;
And thus may Yahweh God of hosts be with you,
(A)Just as you have said!
15 (B)Hate evil, love good,
And set justice at the [a]gate!
Perhaps Yahweh God of hosts
(C)May be gracious to the (D)remnant of Joseph.

16 Therefore thus says Yahweh God of hosts, the Lord,

“There is (E)wailing in all the plazas,
And in all the streets they say, ‘Alas! Alas!’
They also call the (F)farmer to mourning
And [b](G)professional weepers to wailing.
