Amos 5:21
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
“I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.
In context
19 It will be like a man who flees from a lion, only to encounter a bear, or who enters his house and rests his hand against the wall, only to be bitten by a snake.
20 Will not the Day of the LORD be darkness and not light, even gloom with no brightness in it?
21 “I hate, I despise your feasts! I cannot stand the stench of your solemn assemblies.
22 Even though you offer Me burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; for your peace offerings of fattened cattle I will have no regard.
23 Take away from Me the noise of your songs! I will not listen to the music of your harps.
