Amos 4:4-6
New Living Translation
4 “Go ahead and offer sacrifices to the idols at Bethel.
Keep on disobeying at Gilgal.
Offer sacrifices each morning,
and bring your tithes every three days.
5 Present your bread made with yeast
as an offering of thanksgiving.
Then give your extra voluntary offerings
so you can brag about it everywhere!
This is the kind of thing you Israelites love to do,”
says the Sovereign Lord.
6 “I brought hunger to every city
and famine to every town.
But still you would not return to me,”
says the Lord.
Amos 4:4-6
New International Version
4 “Go to Bethel(A) and sin;
go to Gilgal(B) and sin yet more.
Bring your sacrifices every morning,(C)
your tithes(D) every three years.[a](E)
5 Burn leavened bread(F) as a thank offering
and brag about your freewill offerings(G)—
boast about them, you Israelites,
for this is what you love to do,”
declares the Sovereign Lord.
6 “I gave you empty stomachs in every city
and lack of bread in every town,
yet you have not returned to me,”
declares the Lord.(H)
