Amos 6:4 · American Standard Version

Amos 6:4 in context

  1. 2Go to Calneh, and see;
    and from there go to Hamath the great;
    then go down to Gath of the Philistines.
    are they better than these kingdoms?
    or is their border greater than your border?
  2. 3Those who put far away the evil day,
    and cause the seat of violence to come near;
  3. 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;
  4. 5who strum on the strings of a harp;
    who invent for themselves instruments of music, like David;
  5. 6who drink wine in bowls,
    and anoint themselves with the best oils;
    but they are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
