30:005:007 Ye who turn judgment to wormwood, and leave off righteousness
           in the earth,

30:005:008 Seek him that maketh the seven stars and Orion, and turneth
           the shadow of death into the morning, and maketh the day dark
           with night:  that calleth for the waters of the sea, and
           poureth them out upon the face of the earth:  The lord is his
           name: 

30:005:009 That strengtheneth the spoiled against the strong, so that the
           spoiled shall come against the fortress.

30:005:010 They hate him that rebuketh in the gate, and they abhor him
           that speaketh uprightly.

30:005:011 Forasmuch therefore as your treading is upon the poor, and ye
           take from him burdens of wheat:  ye have built houses of hewn
           stone, but ye shall not dwell in them; ye have planted
           pleasant vineyards, but ye shall not drink wine of them.

30:005:012 For I know your manifold transgressions and your mighty sins: 
           they afflict the just, they take a bribe, and they turn aside
           the poor in the gate from their right.

30:005:013 Therefore the prudent shall keep silence in that time; for it
           is an evil time.

30:005:014 Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live:  and so the lord,
           the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken.

30:005:015 Hate the evil, and love the good, and establish judgment in
           the gate:  it may be that the lord God of hosts will be
           gracious unto the remnant of Joseph.

30:005:016 Therefore the lord, the God of hosts, the lord, saith thus;
           Wailing shall be in all streets; and they shall say in all the
           highways, Alas! alas! and they shall call the husbandman to
           mourning, and such as are skilful of lamentation to wailing.

30:005:017 And in all vineyards shall be wailing:  for I will pass through
           thee, saith the lord.

30:005:018 Woe unto you that desire the day of the lord! to what end is
           it for you? the day of the lord is darkness, and not light.

30:005:019 As if a man did flee from a lion, and a bear met him; or went
           into the house, and leaned his hand on the wall, and a serpent
           bit him.

30:005:020 Shall not the day of the lord be darkness, and not light? even
           very dark, and no brightness in it?

30:005:021 I hate, I despise your feast days, and I will not smell in
           your solemn assemblies.

30:005:022 Though ye offer me burnt offerings and your meat offerings, I
           will not accept them:  neither will I regard the peace
           offerings of your fat beasts.
