Amos 5:24 "But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream."
Judgment:
Amos 3:1-2 "Hear this word the Lord has spoken against you, O people of Israel — against the whole family I brought out of Egypt: 'You only have I chosen of all the families of the earth; therefore I will punish you for all your sins.'"
Complacency:
Amos 6:1, 4-7 "Woe to you who are complacent in Zion, and to you who feel secure on Mount Samaria, you notable men of the foremost nation, to whom the people of Israel come!" . . . "You lie on beds inlaid with ivory and lounge on your couches. You dine on choice lambs and fattened calves. You strum away on your harps like David and improvise on musical instruments. You drink wine by the bowlful and use the finest lotions, but you do not grieve over the ruin of Joseph. Therefore you will be among the first to go into exile; your feasting and lounging will end."
