Amos 5:12

12 I know how many are your crimes, and how numerous are your sins— afflicting the righteous, taking money on the side, turning away the poor who seek help.

Amos 5:12 In-Context

10 They hate the one who judges at the city gate, and they reject the one who speaks the truth.
11 Truly, because you crush the weak, and because you tax their grain, you have built houses of carved stone, but you won't live in them; you have planted pleasant vineyards, but you won't drink their wine.
12 I know how many are your crimes, and how numerous are your sins— afflicting the righteous, taking money on the side, turning away the poor who seek help.
13 Therefore, the one who is wise will keep silent in that time; it is an evil time.
14 Seek good and not evil, that you may live; and so the LORD, the God of heavenly forces, will be with you just as you have said.
