Amos 5:14-16

International Standard Version

¹⁴ ‘Pursue good and not evil,
    so that you may live,
and this is what will happen:^[a]
    The Lord God of the Heavenly Armies will be with you,
        as you have been claiming.
¹⁵ Hate evil and love good,
    and establish justice in court—^[b]
perhaps the Lord, the God of the Heavenly Armies,
will be gracious to the survivors of Joseph.’”

¹⁶ Therefore this is what the Lord, the God of the Heavenly Armies, the Lord, says:

‘There will be dirges in all of the streets;
        and in all of the highways they will cry out in anguish.^[c]
They will call the farmer to mourning
    and those who lament^[d] to grieve.
