Amos 6:3-5
Contemporary English Version

3 You are cruel, and you forget
    the coming day of judgment.

4 You rich people lounge around
    on beds with ivory posts,
while dining on the meat
    of your lambs and calves.
5 You sing foolish songs
    to the music of harps,
and you make up new tunes,
    just as David used to do.
