KJV:Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness in the earth,
KJV:Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark with night: that calleth for the waters of the sea, and poureth them out upon the face of the earth: The LORD is his name:
KJV:That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the spoiled shall come against the fortress.
KJV:They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him that speaketh uprightly.
KJV:Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye take from him burdens of wheat: ye have built houses of hewn stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.
KJV:For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside the poor in the gate from their right.
KJV:Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it is an evil time.
KJV:Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the LORD, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.
KJV:Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in the gate: it may be that the LORD God of hosts will be gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.
KJV:Therefore the LORD, the God of hosts, the LORD, saith thus; Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.
KJV:And in all vineyards shall be wailing: for I will pass through thee, saith the LORD.
KJV:Woe unto you that desire the day of the LORD! to what end is it for you? the day of the LORD is darkness, and not light.
KJV:As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent bit him.
KJV:Shall not the day of the LORD be darkness, and not light? even very dark, and no brightness in it?
KJV:I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in your solemn assemblies.
KJV:Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I will not accept them: neither will I regard the peace offerings of your fat beasts.
KJV:Take thou away from me the noise of thy songs; for I will not hear the melody of thy viols.
KJV:But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream.
