5 Os fariseus e os escribas perguntaram a Jesus — Por que os seus discípulos não vivem conforme a tradição dos anciãos, mas comem com as mãos impuras?6 Jesus respondeu — Bem profetizou Isaías a respeito de vocês, hipócritas, como está escrito "Este povo me honra com os lábios, mas o seu coração está longe de E em vão me adoram, ensinando doutrinas que são preceitos humanos."8 — Rejeitando o mandamento de Deus, vocês guardam a tradição E disse-lhes ainda — Vocês sempre encontram uma maneira de rejeitar o mandamento de Deus para guardarem a própria Pois Moisés disse "Honre o seu pai e a sua mãe."E "Quem maldisser o seu pai ou a sua mãe seja punido de morte."11 Vocês, porém, dizem que, se alguém disser ao seu pai ou à sua mãe "A ajuda que você poderia receber de mim é Corbã, isto é, oferta ao Senhor",12 então vocês o dispensam de fazer qualquer coisa em favor do seu pai ou da sua mãe,13 invalidando a palavra de Deus por meio da tradição que vocês mesmos passam de pai para filho. E fazem muitas outras coisas semelhantes.Amos5:6 Cherchez l'Eternel, et vous vivrez! Craignez qu'il ne saisisse comme un feu la maison de Joseph, Et que ce feu ne la dévore, sans personne à Béthel pour l'éteindre, 2 Rois 13:7 De tout le peuple de Joachaz l'Eternel ne lui avait laissé que cinquante cavaliers, dix chars, et dix mille hommes de pied; car le roi de Syrie les avait 5 do not seek Bethel, do not go to Gilgal, do not journey to Beersheba. For Gilgal will surely go into exile, and Bethel will be reduced to nothing. ” 6 Seek the LORD and live, or he will sweep through the tribes of Joseph like a fire; it will devour them, and Bethel will have no one to quench it. 7 There are those who turn justice into bitterness and cast righteousness to the ground. 8 He who made the Pleiades and Orion, who turns midnight into dawn and darkens day into night, who calls for the waters of the sea and pours them out over the face of the land— the LORD is his name. 9 With a blinding flash he destroys the stronghold and brings the fortified city to ruin. 10 There are those who hate the one who upholds justice in court and detest the one who tells the truth. 11 You levy a straw tax on the poor and impose a tax on their grain. Therefore, though you have built stone mansions, you will not live in them; though you have planted lush vineyards, you will not drink their wine. 12 For I know how many are your offenses and how great your sins. There are those who oppress the innocent and take bribes and deprive the poor of justice in the courts. 13 Therefore the prudent keep quiet in such times, for the times are evil. 14 Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the LORD God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is. 15 Hate evil, love good; maintain justice in the courts. Perhaps the LORD God Almighty will have mercy on the remnant of Joseph.

The land cannot bear all his words.EA 11 For this is what Amos is saying“Jeroboam will die by the sword, and Israel will surely go into exile,EB away from their native land.’”EC 12 Then Amaziah said to Amos, “Get out, you seer!ED Go back to the land of Judah. Earn your bread there and do your prophesying there.EE 13 Don’t prophesy anymore at Bethel,EF because this is the king’s sanctuary and the templeEG of the kingdom.EH” 14 Amos answered Amaziah, “I was neither a prophetEI nor the son of a prophet, but I was a shepherd, and I also took care of sycamore-fig trees.EJ 15 But the Lord took me from tending the flockEK and said to me, Go,EL prophesyEM to my people Israel.’EN 16 Now then, hearEO the word of the Lord. You say,“Do not prophesy againstEP Israel, and stop preaching against the descendants of Isaac.’ 17 “Therefore this is what the Lord says“Your wife will become a prostituteEQ in the city, and your sons and daughters will fall by the land will be measured and divided up, and you yourself will die in a pagan[i] Israel will surely go into exile,ER away from their native land.ES’”Amos5 Elberfelder Bibel Totenklage über Israel, Bußruf und Gerichtsworte 1 Hört dieses Wort, das ich über euch als Totenklage anhebe, Haus Israel!
