NASB
"Seek good and not evil, that you may live; And thus may the LORD God of hosts be with you, Just as you have said!"
— Amos 5:14, NASB
“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.”
“Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live; and so Jehovah, the God of hosts, will be with you, as ye say. ”
“Seek good, and not evil, that you may live; and so Yahweh, the God of Armies, will be with you, as you say.”
“Seek good and not evil so you can live! Then the LORD God of Heaven’s Armies, just might be with you, as you claim he is.”
“Seek ye good, and not evil, that you may live: and the Lord the God of hosts will be with you, as you have said.”
“Go after good and not evil, so that life may be yours: and so the Lord, the God of armies, will be with you, as you say.”
“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.”
Therefore because you impose heavy rent on the poor And exact a tribute of grain from them, Though you have built houses of well-hewn stone, Yet you will not live in them; You have planted pleasant vineyards, yet you will not drink their wine.
For I know your transgressions are many and your sins are great, You who distress the righteous and accept bribes And turn aside the poor in the gate.
Therefore at such a time the prudent person keeps silent, for it is an evil time.
Seek good and not evil, that you may live; And thus may the LORD God of hosts be with you, Just as you have said!
Hate evil, love good, And establish justice in the gate! Perhaps the LORD God of hosts May be gracious to the remnant of Joseph.
Therefore thus says the LORD God of hosts, the Lord, "There is wailing in all the plazas, And in all the streets they say, 'Alas! Alas!' They also call the farmer to mourning And professional mourners to lamentation.
"And in all the vineyards there is wailing, Because I will pass through the midst of you," says the LORD.
