Amos 5:8 Context
6Seeke the Lord, and ye shall liue, lest hee breake out like fire in the house of Ioseph and deuoure it, and there be none to quench it in Bethel, 7Ye who turne iudgment to wormwood, and leaue off righteousnesse in the earth: 8Seeke him that maketh the seuen starres and Orion, and turneth the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day darke with night: that calleth for the waters of the Sea, and powreth them out vpon the face of the earth: the Lord is his Name. 9That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong: so that the spoiled shall come against the fortresse. 10They hate him that rebuketh in the gate: and they abhorre him that speaketh vprightly.
