Amos 8:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ Saying: When will the month be over, and we shall sell our wares: and the sabbath, and we shall open the corn: that we may lessen the measure, and increase the sicle, and may convey in deceitful balances,

⁶ That we may possess the needy for money, and the poor for a pair of shoes, and may sell the refuse of the corn?

⁷ The Lord hath sworn against the pride of Jacob: surely I will never forget all their works.
