Amos 5:24 in Context — Amos 5
22 Y si me ofreciereis holocaustos y vuestros presentes, no los recibiré; ni miraré á los pacíficos de vuestros engordados.
23 Quita de mí la multitud de tus cantares, que no escucharé las salmodias de tus instrumentos.
24 Antes corra el juicio como las aguas, y la justicia como impetuoso arroyo.
25 ¿Habéisme ofrecido sacrificios y presentes en el desierto en cuarenta años, casa de Israel?
26 Mas llevabais el tabernáculo de vuestro Moloch y Chiún, ídolos vuestros, la estrella de vuestros dioses que os hicisteis.
