Berean Standard Bible
Amos 5:11
“Therefore, because you trample on the poor and exact from him a tax of grain, you will never live in the stone houses you have built; you will never drink the wine from the lush vineyards you have planted.”
In context
9He flashes destruction on the strong, so that fury comes upon the stronghold.
10There are those who hate the one who reproves in the gate and despise him who speaks with integrity.
11Therefore, because you trample on the poor and exact from him a tax of grain, you will never live in the stone houses you have built; you will never drink the wine from the lush vineyards you have planted.
13Therefore, the prudent keep silent in such times, for the days are evil.
