Amos 5:4–6

Amos 5:4–64 matched frames1 pivot

Read down to the center, where the pattern turns; then rise back out through its mirror.

A 4 For thus saith the LORD unto the house of Israel,
- B 4 Seek ye me, and ye shall live:
  - C 5 But seek not Bethel,
    - D 5 nor enter into Gilgal,
      - E 5 and pass not to Beersheba:
    - D' 5 for Gilgal shall surely go into captivity,
  - C' 5 and Bethel shall come to nought.
- B' 6 Seek the LORD, and ye shall live;
A' 6 lest he break out like fire in the house of Joseph.
