Amos 6:1-7 NKJV
Amos 6:1-7 Woe to you who are at ease in Zion, And trust in Mount Samaria, Notable persons in the chief nations, To whom the house of Israel comes!
Go over to Calneh and see; And from there go to Hamath the great; Then go down to Gath of the Philistines, Are you better than these kingdoms? Or is their territory greater than your territory?
Woe to you who put far off the day of doom, Who cause the seat of violence to come near;
Who lie on beds of ivory, Stretch out on your couches, Eat lambs from the flock And calves from the midst of the stall;
Who sing idly to the sound of stringed instruments, And invent for yourselves musical instruments like David;
Who drink wine from bowls, And anoint yourselves with the best ointments, But are not grieved for the affliction of Joseph.
Therefore they shall now go captive as the first of the captives, And those who recline at banquets shall be removed.
Luke 6:24-36 "But woe to you who are rich, For you have received your consolation.
Woe to you who are full, For you shall hunger. Woe to you who laugh now, For you shall mourn and weep.

"But I say to you who hear; Love your enemies, do good to those who hate you,
"bless those who curse you, and pray for those who spitefully use you.
"To him who strikes you on the one cheek, offer the other also. And from him who takes away your cloak, do not withhold your tunic either.
"Give to everyone who asks of you. And from him who takes away your goods do not ask them back.
"And just as you want men to do to you, you also do to them likewise.
"But if you love those who love you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners love those who love them.
"And if you do good to those who do good to you, what credit is that to you? For even sinners do the same.
"And if you lend to those who from whom you hope to receive back, what credit is that to you? For even sinners lend to sinners to receive as much back.
"But love your enemies, do good, and lend, hoping for nothing in return, and your reward will be great, and you will be sons of the Most High. For He is kind to the unthankful and evil.
"Therefore be merciful, just as your Father also is merciful.
Jeremiah 2:9-13 "Therefore I will yet bring charges against you," says the LORD, "And against your children's children I will bring charges.
For pass beyond the coasts of Cyprus and see, Send to Kedar and consider diligently, And see if there has been such a thing.
Has a nation changed its gods, Which are not gods? But My people have changed their Glory For what does not profit.
Be astonished, O heavens, at this, And be horribly afraid; Be very desolate," says the LORD.
"For My people have committed two evils; They have forsaken Me, the fountain of living waters, And hewn themselves cisterns--broken cisterns that can hold no water.

Therefore my people have gone into captivity, Because they have no knowledge; their honorable men are famished, And their multitude dried up with thirst.
Therefore Sheol has enlarged itself And opened its mouth beyond measure; Their glory and their multitude pomp, And he who is jubilant, shall descend into it.
People shall be brought down, Each man shall be humbled, And the eyes of the lofty shall be humbled.
But the LORD of hosts shall be exalted in judgment, And God who is holy shall be hallowed in righteousness.
Then the lambs shall feed in their pasture, And in the waste places of the fat ones strangers shall eat.
Amos 2:4-8 Thus says the LORD; "For three transgressions of Judah, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they have despised the law of the LORD, And have not kept His commandments. Their lies lead them astray. Lies which their fathers followed.

Thus says the LORD; "For three transgressions of Israel, and for four, I will not turn away its punishment, Because they sell the righteous for silver, And the poor for a pair of sandals.
