Amos 8:4-6 ▼

4 Hear this, you who trample the needy, to put an end to the humble of the land,

5 saying, “When will the new moon be over, So that we may sell grain; And the Sabbath, so that we may open the wheat market, To make the ephah smaller and the shekel bigger, And to cheat with dishonest scales,

6 So as to buy the helpless for money, And the needy for a pair of sandals, And that we may sell the refuse of the wheat?”
