Amos 6:6-8
The Voice
6 Who guzzle fine wine by the gallon from elegant bowls;
who apply expensive oils to their bodies, when cheaper ones will do,
But they are not grieved by the awful state of Joseph’s people.
7 That is why they will be the first ones carried off into exile,
and their lives of leisure and feasting will disappear.
8 The Eternal Lord has sworn by His own holiness,
and the Eternal God, the Commander of heavenly armies,
Promises this:
Eternal One: I detest the pride of Israel, descendants of My servant Jacob,
and I hate their fortresses,
And I will hand over the city and all its wealth to their enemies.
