Amos 8:4

Listen to this, you who trample ¹  the needy, and do away with ²  the destitute in the land.

Hear this, you who trample the needy and do away with the poor of the land,

Hear this, you who trample the needy, to do away with the humble of the land,

Listen to this, you who rob the poor and trample the needy!

Listen to this, you who walk all over the weak, you who treat poor people as less than nothing,

Give ear to this, you who are crushing the poor, and whose purpose is to put an end to those who are in need in the land,

Hear this, you that trample on the needy, and bring to ruin the poor of the land,

Hear this, you who swallow up the needy, And make the poor of the land fail,

Listen to this, you who trample ¹  the needy, and do away with ²  the destitute in the land.

¹ tn See the note on the word “trample” in 2:7.

² tn Or “put an end to”; or “exterminate.”
