Amos 5:7-9

Modern English Version

⁷ You who turn justice into bitterness
    and cast righteousness down to the ground!

⁸ The One who made the Pleiades and Orion,
    who turns the deep darkness into dawn
    and darkens the day into night,
who summons the waters of the sea
    and pours them out on the surface of the earth—
    the Lord is His name,
⁹ the One who flashes destruction against the strong,
    so that destruction comes against the fortress.
