Amos 2:6-8
New American Standard Bible 1995
6 Thus says the Lord,
“For three transgressions of (A)Israel and for four
I will not revoke its punishment,
Because they (B)sell the righteous for money
And the needy for a pair of sandals.
7 “These who [a]pant after the very dust of the earth on the head of the (C)helpless
Also (D)turn aside the way of the humble;
And a (E)man and his father [b]resort to the same [c]girl
In order to profane My holy name.
8 “On garments (F)taken as pledges they stretch out beside (G)every altar,
And in the house of their God they (H)drink the wine of those who have been fined.

New International Version
Judgment on Israel
6 This is what the Lord says:
“For three sins of Israel,
even for four, I will not relent.(A)
They sell the innocent for silver,
and the needy for a pair of sandals.(B)
7 They trample on the heads of the poor
as on the dust of the ground
and deny justice to the oppressed.
Father and son use the same girl
and so profane my holy name.(C)
8 They lie down beside every altar
on garments taken in pledge.(D)
In the house of their god
they drink wine(E) taken as fines.(F)
