  • AMO 6:1–7, engwebp

    1Woe to those who are at ease in Zion, and to those who are secure on the mountain of Samaria, the notable men of the chief of the nations, to whom the house of Israel come!

    2Go to Calneh, and see. From there go to Hamath the great. Then go down to Gath of the Philistines. Are they better than these kingdoms? Is their border greater than your border?

    3Alas for you who put far away the evil day, and cause the seat of violence to come near,

    4who lie on beds of ivory, and stretch themselves on their couches, and eat the lambs out of the flock, and the calves out of the middle of the stall,

    5who strum on the strings of a harp, who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;

    6who drink wine in bowls, and anoint themselves with the best oils, but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.

    7Therefore they will now go captive with the first who go captive. The feasting and lounging will end.

Names in the World English Bible text that carry this entry’s tag. They are carried over from the tags on the Korean Revised Version, which are matched by name inside chapters that already have collected evidence, and a verse where the English says “he” carries none. All await human review. They are a separate list from the source passages above. An empty list does not mean the entry is absent from the text.
